Most Contested Heroes
The final meta of this patch is lots of very strong heroes, even we have more bans in first phase, they are never enough.
Most Picked Heroes
Muerta is one of the best flex pick, that may not be first banned too, first pick material.
Grimstroke have one of the best CC in the game right now, and gaining strong dispel with shard is super valuable, Dart Portrait is one of the best late game scepter skill.
Weaver and Chaos Knight is the best pos 1 pick of Gaimin Gladiators, they gain extreme early game power with them.
Most Banned Heroes
Bristleback, Primal Beast, Kunkka, Centaur Warrunner is the best hero to do the Heart + Blade Mail build.
Ancient Apparition is the exact counter to that build, but at the last few matches, Gaimin Gladiators and Team Spirit does not depends on that, which makes Ancient Apparition kind of irralavent.
Necrophos is basically a respect ban.
Highest Win Rate Heroes (pick ≥ 2)
Chen with the push strategy is super strong on Gaimin Gladiators.
Weaver is rediculously strong in early game and late game.
Lowest Win Rate Heroes (pick ≥ 2)
Surprise that Spectre and Centaur Warrunner falls off.
Highest Pick Rate Increase
This is basically a list of heroes that Gaimin Gladiators loves.
Highest Pick Rate Decrease
The actual fall off in the list is Earthshaker, teams just found that it does not work, others are mostly just banned.
Peak Hero Performance
Necrophos is actually good, hard to kill, Scepter is like a scaling Radiance.
And Pugna got more picks as expected.
Lone Druid is strong in the hands of Ace of Gaimin Gladiator, they take tower so fast they denies the growth of enemies.
Faction
As the meta developed, with the best team that can figure out the ban/pick system, Radiant is not OP any more, and it can be balanced by first pick.
Hopefully I got time to do break down about the finals, but it is not that hard, Gaimin Gladiator got out drafted in my opinion.
