How to read the Item Tables

One of the tables included in my game summaries is a table summarizing who bought which items, when they bought them, and how well they used them. This page is about how to read the table. Some caveats on the item data. I ignore some of the minor items--such as clarity, tango etc-- and I am unable to get data on some of the bigger items in some cases so the list is not always complete.

This data ONLY INCLUDES EFFECTS ON OR AGAINST HEROES. For example, when I show the total Radiance burn damage done by the Lone Druid, it is only damage done against enemy heroes and does not include damage to neutrals, creeps, etc. There are some exceptions for this for items that are not used on heroes (such as Hand of Midas, Boots of Travel etc),

The game time for when the items were purchased is approximate. In some cases the game time is the first time the item was used. This is not a big deal for items like Radiance, as they are used very shortly after being purchased. However for items like BKB, the item may not be used for a few minutes after it is purchased. If the item is listed in the Event Log table, that is the exact time the item was purchased.

The remaining columns are item specific. There are six columns: Times Used, Total Effect, Avg Effect, Times Used Other, Total Effect Other, Avg Effect Other. Avg Effect is almost always Total Effect divided by Times Used. In alphabetical order let's go through each item. If the item is not included in this list, then I am not tracking its usage but am tracking when it is purchased.

The International: Play-In Game 2 Mouz vs. World Elite Recap

More Mouz vs. WE action. Man I feel pretty bad for MUFC. Not being able to compete because one person lost their passport... ug that has to sting. Anyway here is a recap of Mouz vs. WE in game 2 of the Play-In.

The International: Play-In Game 1 Mouz vs. World Elite Recap

Huzzah! The International 2 is here! Up first is the Play-In best of 5 match between Mouz and World Elite. Here's a summary and some various stats for your enjoyment. I'll start with some tables and finish with some graphs and charts.

New Addition: Dota 2 Chat Log Summary and When Certain Items Purchased

Another thing I'll be adding to my Dota 2 International recaps, the chat log. This is only the all chat log as the team chat logs are not available on the replays. It would be cool if the team chats and spectator chats were available, but unfortunately at this time they are not.

Game Recap: Mouz vs. coL -- The Defense Final Game 4

Yeah, yeah, I'm a little late on this but hopefully you'll be interested on what I've been working on. I put together a variety of graphs, stats, and summaries which should be ready in time for the International. I'm still trying to work the kinks out but my various programs should be up and running just in time for the International. You can overdose on VoDs and also come here and check out some info on some of the matches you may have missed. Here's what I have in store for you:

Dota 2: 2012 Team Earnings

Here is an updated list of the top earners this year in Dota 2. This is current through August 19th, 2012. After the International, we'll see some big changes in the Team Earnings.

Wednesday, August 8, 2012

Updated Event Log and Combat Summary Tables

I added more to the tables and upgraded my coding. New additions:
  • added kill score and towers remaining columns to the event log ( so you can get a sense of who is winning )
  • added event for courier kill
  • added event for tower deny
  • event log now distinguishes between position of tower (top, bot, mid)
  • event log now distinguishes between which barracks was destroyed
  • if target killed has Aegis, no longer says target killed but that Aegis was removed
  • further refined Game Time
To do:
  • I would like better formatting. There is a package in R that I am going to learn that would help with this.
  • Kills that are split by team may have to be coded a little differently. I need to find and analyze more of these types of kills.

The Defense: PotM Bottom vs. Na'Vi -- Game 2 Recap

I started writing about Dota because I want to do some analysis of the professional scene and hopefully add something to the Dota community. My first minor project consists of three things, two of which are shown below.

After the jump there is some information from the game two PotM Bottom vs. Na'Vi match up in the Defense. My third item is more about gold and farming. When I have these three things complete (and after I get back from my vacation in a couple of weeks), I'll turn my attention back to using these tools to analyse more Dota 2 games and regularly updating the blog. Let me know if you would like any changers or additional info
