A review of your Io game
Sign in with Steam and pick a match: the coach reads the replay second by second and in a couple of minutes shows where the game slipped.
- Every death and fight becomes a moment on the map: the fog of war as you saw it, and what the enemy saw that second.
- Your pace against the Io benchmark: 373 GPM for an average player, 575 for a good one.
- Timings against pros: they have Aghanim's Scepter by minute 16, and the coach shows where you lose time.
- Five-game homework the coach checks in your next review, plus a chat with the coach about the match.
