The headline stat
Sniper killed me eight times. We won anyway.
Spirit Breaker again, one game after Chaos Knight, Nine Times, and the same shape: 6/15/27, the most assists on either team, and more than half the deaths to one hero — Mr.bogatirev’s Sniper, who went 21/16/17 and also died more than anyone else in the match. This time the fort at the end was theirs.
Fifty-one kills each after fifty-eight minutes. Dire lost all eighteen buildings; Radiant lost six and nothing above a tier-two. wxyzor — the Phantom Lancer from Level Thirteen at Thirty-Five Minutes, on my side this time — took nine of the eighteen personally, both tier-fours and the fort included, plus the game’s only Roshan.
7:47–58:06
Five deaths in five minutes, four of them Sniper
Sniper got me at 16:41, 17:43, 20:42 and 21:48, with Windranger taking the one in between at 18:45 — five deaths in just over five minutes — then again at 27:28, 33:27, 35:05 and 42:37. Chaos Knight and Earthshaker took two each, Abaddon the first at 7:47, and a tier-two tower one at 31:54. I killed Sniper once, at 8:33 with Lion, and Earthshaker three times, the last two during the final push at 55:06 and 57:02 with Abaddon in between. My last death, to Chaos Knight at 58:06, came fourteen seconds before the fort.
the shape of the win
wxyzor’s Phantom Lancer absorbed 351,193 damage across his illusions, did 14,172 tower damage, took Roshan at 47:57, and personally destroyed the mid tier-three, the bottom tier-three and both its racks, both tier-fours three seconds apart, and the fort. Halcyon’s Lion went 17/11/22 at 75% teamfight participation and TrumpNochio’s Techies 17/6/13 on a six-kill streak, with his land mines accounting for seven more kills and a rax. For Dire, PatrikUa’s Windranger had the highest hero damage in the match, 123,676, and Zakkanafein’s Abaddon 30,988 healing — and none of it turned into a building after 45:31.
16:56–58:20
Their six towers by 45:31, then eight of ours in 108 seconds
Dire took all three Radiant tier-ones by 26:53 and all three tier-twos by 45:31, Sniper personally three of the six. Radiant’s answer was slower and creep-heavy — all three Dire tier-ones fell to creeps by 30:56, Techies took two tier-twos, a siege creep the top tier-three — until Phantom Lancer took the mid tier-two at 48:32 and the mid tier-three and racks by 51:20. Then from 56:32: bottom tier-three and both racks in twenty-four seconds, the top racks (a land mine took one, I took the other at 57:19), both tier-fours, and the fort at 58:20. Eight buildings in a minute and forty-eight seconds. Radiant never lost a tier-three.
Nine deaths to Chaos Knight lost a game. Eight to Sniper won one. The difference wasn’t the number in my column; it was the Phantom Lancer in the next one.
