The headline stat

All five of them killed me at 3:33. Warlock’s golem killed their fort at 43:58.

Bane, third game in a row, finished 5/4/24. First blood was mine to give: Anti-Mage landed it at 3:33 with every other Radiant hero on the assist list. Forty minutes later sphinx11’s Warlock golem — the same Warlock who was on my side in Eleven Kills, and the Twelfth Stood Back Up — took the fort, the second Warlock golem to end a game in the last three posts after Drow Ranger, Six Times.

In between, Radiant lost every one of their eighteen structures and Dire lost four. I took three of the eighteen myself — a tier-one, a tier-two, and a rax, all of them mid lane. My last kill, Shadow Shaman at 43:34, had all five Dire heroes on it. The game opened and closed with a five-man kill; the difference was which end of it I was on.

3:33–43:34

Anti-Mage three times, and nobody else on Radiant did much

Dream’s Anti-Mage was Radiant’s whole game: 9/7/4, 81.2% teamfight participation, 55,005 damage taken, and three of my four deaths (3:33, 17:28, 30:53). The other four Radiant players had six kills between them; Drow Ranger’s one was on me, at 25:25. My own kills came in pairs around the map: Shadow Shaman at 19:05 and Drow Ranger at 22:05 while their tier-ones were going, Drow Ranger again at 34:07 and Kunkka at 41:00 during the tier-three pushes, and Shadow Shaman a second time at 43:34, twenty-four seconds before the fort.

the shape of the win

ginge’s Queen of Pain finished 16/2/20 at level 24 on a twelve-kill streak, with 58,276 hero damage and 10,139 tower damage, both the highest in the match. Rasputin’s Axe went 14/4/21 on a nine-kill streak. sphinx11’s Warlock (7/2/21, 15,315 healing) took three buildings himself and his golem took five more — the top tier-three and both top racks, the mid range rax, and the fort at 43:58. Both Radiant tier-fours went down a second and a half apart to mega flagbearer creeps. Shaparak’s Shadow Shaman died fourteen times, more than anyone on either side.

16:34–43:58

Eighteen of eighteen, three of them mine

Queen of Pain opened on Radiant’s top tier-one at 16:34, Warlock took the bottom one at 21:17, and I took mid at 23:10. The tier-twos went the same way — Warlock top at 28:45, me mid at 30:48, a creep wave bottom at 35:28 — and the bottom tier-three and racks fell inside twenty seconds of each other right after. Radiant’s answer across all of that was three Dire tier-ones and a tier-two. From 40:49 the rest went in just over three minutes: top tier-three and racks, mid tier-three and racks (the melee one was mine, at 41:44), both tier-fours, and the fort. Neither team went near Roshan.

Five heroes to kill a Bane at three minutes. One golem to kill an ancient at forty-four. Efficiency is a team stat.
