Counter picking during the draft
The drafter takes up to five enemy picks, four allies and any bans, and ranks
every remaining hero. Scoring runs entirely in your browser against preloaded
data, so it re-ranks the instant you click rather than waiting on a request —
which matters when the pick timer is at fifteen seconds.
Hero pages: who counters whom, and what to build
Each of the 127 heroes has a page listing what beats it, what it beats,
and which heroes it pairs with — every entry with an explanation and a sample
size. Below that sits the popular item build for your bracket, ordered by the
median minute each item is finished, so you can see the timings to aim for
rather than just a list of items.
Builds are ranked by how often an item is bought, never by its win rate. Item
win rates are misleading: the same item shows 82% bought at minute 30 and 55%
at minute 48, because you reach expensive items sooner in games you are already
winning. Purchase frequency has no such problem.
Rank brackets
The same matchup differs between Herald and Immortal, and item timings shift by
minutes. Everything is split across four brackets. Signing in with Steam detects
your medal and selects the right one; you can override it at any time and the
choice sticks.
Random hero, aware of the draft
Pick a position and roll — excluding anything already picked or banned. Positions
come from what players actually play rather than from role tags, so asking for a
position five gives you heroes genuinely played there.
