Where do the numbers come from?

Hero strength is the win rate in public Divine games from OpenDota. We count matchups and items from 12,000 pro matches on OpenDota. When a pair has few games, we pull the number toward zero so luck does not look like a counter.

Why is a hero with a minus against an enemy still near the top?

The total adds hero strength in the patch to the matchup against each enemy. A hero that is strong in the patch can lose to one enemy and still be the best pick against the whole lineup.

How do I share my pick?

Your position and enemies live in the page address. Copy the link and send it to your team: they get the same lineup.

Can I get this in game?

Yes, in the Highground Live overlay. Mark enemies during the draft with Alt+E, and the overlay suggests items for your hero.

How we count. Hero strength: win rate in public Divine games minus 50 (OpenDota). Matchup: how much more often the hero beats that enemy than usual, from 12,000 pro matches between February 3, 2026 and October 8, 2026. Fewer games for a pair pull the number toward zero. Items: what pros on this hero buy against that enemy much more often than usual (12,000 pro matches). A guide, not a guarantee.
