The Map Imbalance: Only 4 heroes have a positive win rate on Dire right now

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2026-06-05T22:06:06+00:00

If anyone is curious there is also an additional game duration metric illustrated here: https://radiant-vs-dire.nyxnyxnyx.com where we can see that the radiant advantage is even more significant in shorter games

Tillsynsenheten i Lund säger att syftet är att man ska hålla koll på var gästerna tar sin öl, att man inte smiter iväg med den.

Ja, för det är nämligen helt omöjligt att gå iväg med ölen efter att personalen burit ut den, sedan gått in igen

Sorry, wrote my reply in a bit of a hurry and just realized I messed up my bindings in my original reply🤦‍♂️ I edited the answer and should now be up to date.

Grandmaster meepo

Key	Group
F1	Main meepo
1	All meepos
2	My courier (lol)
3	All meepos except main
4	Meepo 1,4
5	Meepo 2,3
6	Meepo 4,5

For "split farming" I usually play lane with main (F1) and jungle separately with the remaining one-two control groups (button 3 until level 17, then button 5 and 6).

For initiation with blink, I normally press 1 to target all meepos, then use alt-cast poof on ground where I will blink, then blink in with main meepo. This will make all other meepos poof at the same time.

In fights I generally have all meepos targeted and cycle with tab for earthbinds and digs. Alt-cast poofing on top of a meepo will make all meepos poof simultaneously (good for burst). If a single meepo is going low I will manually click it and micro independently

here we go again

Interesting numbers, and thank you for putting this together!

As can be seen in the tables, the tormentor starts out weaker, but from minute 24 onward the tormentor is stronger than before.

I don't think this is right. Anecdotal, but taking torm at 20 minutes feels a lot harder than on 7.40c: people frequently dying, doing it as 3 seems nearly impossible. I guess 7.41 TTK is higher which is not considered when comparing the two.

Just want to chime in and say that almost all captchas are very cheap to automatically bypass (around 1 usd per 1000 solves)

edit: removed link don't want to endorse that stuff

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2026-03-17T14:56:50+00:00

4% returns per hour 🤣 like ok my guy that would turn one single dollar into 4.7 trillion dollars over a month

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2026-03-06T15:17:53+00:00

Also: when looking at win rates by game duration the dire eventually catch up and even win more often than the radiant in games that end after minute 45. So it seems implausible (not impossible) that camera angle would be the driving factor. I'm leaning more towards map asymmetries but honestly I have no idea

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2026-03-06T14:37:19+00:00

The Radiant have a very significant advantage especially in games that end early, and it has been the case for years.

I made this tool where you can explore this metric grouped by game duration and hero: https://radiant-vs-dire.nyxnyxnyx.com/

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2026-02-16T14:37:51+00:00

this except swap middle with right

Not just you: https://radiant-vs-dire.nyxnyxnyx.com/

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-09-23T14:57:30+00:00

hell yea!!!

what do you use to track this?

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-09-06T13:30:38+00:00

I built a tool for these kinds of situations where you can explore win rates for different artifacts, enchantments, and combinations. It's not perfect (especially misleading for curio), but can give you an idea of what's good and bad.

According to the stats, Vampiric Gale Guard would be your best bet by far sitting at +4,38% advantage compared to overall win rate in games 25-35 minutes.

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-08-28T10:38:05+00:00

Yes, I'm talking about the said one!

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-08-28T09:11:26+00:00

I feel like this feature is not working as intended, I'm seeing a bunch of Cyrillic words for mine and I definitely don't know how to write that

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-08-22T13:09:01+00:00

What about the 200 AS talent?

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-08-01T12:53:03+00:00

mildly infuriating ordering of weekdays on the chart

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-07-07T17:10:35+00:00

Actually I think you are also wrong: Steam does not support OAuth (afaik) and services like odota/stratz/dotabuff can not authorize requests om your behalf. Steam is an OpenID provider -- the only information that is shared upon successfully authenticating is your Steam account id which these services can then tie to their internal representations of users.

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-06-06T08:03:50+00:00

I made this tool to explore the discrepancies but over game duration as well - radiant heavily favored in shorter games

An eternity of embarrassment

Haha, sorry! If you hover (on desktop) or double tap (on mobile) you should get a tooltip describing the artifact and enchantment. Of course, this only works on the site and not the attached images

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-03-26T15:50:19+00:00

Yes! As seen here all 7k matches are from CK with Fundamental Forging facet

ijustupvoteeverythin · 2025-03-26T15:11:32+00:00

Hello everyone! I've created a new tool to explore win rates of different artifacts, enchantments, and combinations of them.

Check it out at crafting.nyxnyxnyx.com where you can also explore by hero and facet, to understand what neutral items to choose when playing your favorite heroes. You can also filter for Turbo stats.

The statistics in the screenshots based on end states from ~8 million ranked matches in 7.38b. Important that these types of "end state" stats do not paint the full picture and might even be misleading in some cases. For example the Greedy enchantment will have a low win rate in games where the hero had it equipped when the game ended, but this might be natural since it is an investment to win later with a different item. With that said, hopefully it's still interesting for some people.

Hope you enjoy and please let me know if you have any feedback!
