Explanation of most currently existing modes in game. I did not type here modes which are useless by logical reasons.

Main modes:
Only 1 of following modes is possible:
sd = Single draft. Every player getting unique hero pool without repeating until there is enough heroes to pick. Grants pool of 11 heroes to each player
md = Mirror draft. Every pair of corresponding players getting unique hero pool — 1 and 6, 2 and 7, etc. Grants pool of 11 heroes to each player.
ar = All Random. Grants random hero and skill pool to every player. Normally used in pair with DM aka Deathmatch.
rd = Random draft. Players picking heroes from randomly generated pool in special order.
ap = All Pick. Actually used for testing purposes only.

Only 1 of following modes is possible:
d2 = Draft 20. Increases SD/MD hero pool to 20. On SD will cause overlapping heroes, on MD every pair of players will still have unique pool.
d3 = Draft 30. Increases SD/MD hero pool to 30. Causes overlapping pools.
d4 = Draft 40. Increases SD/MD hero pool to 40. Causes overlapping pools.
d5 = Draft 50. Increases SD/MD hero pool to 50. Causes overlapping pools.

s5 = 5 skills per hero are allowed — 4 common and 1 ultimate
s6 = 6 skills per hero are allowed - 4 common and 2 ultimates — actually most official mode for LoD

Special additions
du = Duplicate Mode. Allows to pick same hero body. Useful with sd, md and ap modes.
it = Invisible taverns for -sd. Oldschool mode, keeps enemy taverns invisible when chosen mode is sd withouth d2/d3/d4/d5 addtiions

Picking limitation
ls = Limited stuns. Every hero can have not more than 2 strong disables.
3ls = 3 limited skills. Every hero can have only 1 strong disable and not more than 3 skills from same hero.

Gameplay changing and for fun modes
om = Only Mid creeps will spawn
os = One Skill. Same skill can be picked only one per team.
fr = Fast Rspawn. Hero respawn timer is shortened by 50%.
nd = No Deaths. Hero respawn takes 1 second at every level.
nn = No Neutrals. Neutral camps will now spawn. Roshan will still appear.
np = No Powerups. Runes will not spawn.
sc = Super Creeps. Strong Sentinel and Scourge creeps will spawn every 10 minutes.
pm = Pooling Mode. Items may be transferred freely between heroes.
id = Item Drop. At every death hero will lose item from randomly chosed slot. Random can choose free slot as well.
ra = Random Abilities. Skills in 5th and 6th slot are granted randomly, following restriction rules.
bo = Balance off. All known, but currently not supported.

Operations with players
sp = Shuffle Players. Generates random teams from currently existing players. Causes problems with statistic counting and control sharing.
so = Switch On. Allows to transfer player from one team to another. Fairly unfair.

Other
oi = Observer info off. Disables additional information for observers.
ah = Additional antihack features enabled.
