Hey guys, what’s up?

I parsed 50 replays from rank 1-100 sups and timed what they were doing at the end of every minute for the first 10 minutes of the game to come up with this guide for you guys! Initially the research started as a stacking guide but I quickly realized that stacking is far from the priority these players have in the first 10 minutes.

In general a position 4 player stacks 1.5 times for the first 10 minutes of the game (double stacking triangle counts as 1 stack in the calculations btw) whereas position 5 players stack about 0.55 times. Which adds up to about 2 stacks every 10 mins with both supports combined.

Knowing then, that stacking, is not a priority what are these players doing with their time that they deem/consider more important? There’s a lot of information that can be drawn from these graphs so I made them only have the TOP4 most considered activities rather than including every single one. I even made a video about it in case you are interested.

Btw, if you have any knowledge in programing I am really interested in creating a script-program that could parse replays and recognize actions for further videos like this one. While enjoyable to analyze the results manually going through them was awful lmao. Hit me up if you like dota and programing!

    I think looking through the games might be quicker than reading your graphs tbh
