Dota 2 Meta FAQ
How Dota 2 pick/win/ban data is aggregated and what it actually tells you.
How is the Dota 2 meta tier list calculated?
Heroes are ranked on a weighted mix of public win rate, pick rate, and pro contest rate (pick + ban). Tier thresholds adjust per patch so that any hero with significantly above-average win and presence is flagged as meta.
Where does the meta data come from?
Public stats come from OpenDota's heroStats endpoint, covering all rank brackets from Herald through Divine. Immortal-level data is aggregated separately from high-MMR pub matches. Pro data uses officially tagged tournament games.
How often is the Dota meta page refreshed?
The page regenerates roughly every 24 hours and automatically resets whenever a new patch drops. Clicking a hero opens their detail page, which refreshes every ~10 minutes for live stats.
What's the difference between pro meta and pub meta?
Pro meta depends on the last several hundred captains-mode drafts from tournaments — high ban rate and consistent pick priority signal tier-one heroes. Pub meta reflects millions of matches across all ranks and often lags or diverges because picks aren't first-picked/banned the same way.
Why does the same hero show different tiers on different sites?
Different sites weight pick rate vs win rate differently, filter minimum samples differently, and pull from slightly different rank brackets. GamerStation publishes the formula so the numbers are reproducible and auditable.
