- Neutral crafts, patch 7.41read 27 Sept 2026
28,113 of 28,370 player-games in premium and professional league matches carry a neutral history: every artifact and enchantment crafted, and when, read through OpenDota’s SQL explorer. A craft counts as made ahead or behind when the team led or trailed by more than 3,000 gold at that minute. ⚠️ Observational: a team ahead crafts differently because it is ahead.

Name, primary attribute, attack type and role list, read from Valve’s published hero data.
- Win rate, pick rate and sampleread 15 Sept 2026
Counted over 4,610,063 public matches, per hero, with the same figures again above Ancient. The tier letter is derived from the win rate and is labelled so wherever it appears.

The five most common items on each hero in each of Valve’s four game stages, counted over public matches. Each row carries its own pick count.
- Matchups and game lengthread 16 Sept 2026
Who each hero loses to and beats, counted over public matches with a floor of 30 games per pair, plus the same hero's win rate in each of five game-length bands. ⚠️ Observational: a matchup win rate is not a claim that one hero counters another by design. Synergy — how a hero does WITH another — is not published by this channel and is not shown.

Which heroes the live patch names, and which way each line moved, counted off Valve’s own structured notes. A line the rule cannot read leaves the hero unmarked rather than guessed.
The roster is the one Valve publishes for patch 7.41f. Draft picks are kept in this browser and never sent anywhere.
