Hard Support, day 10/10 (STRATZ). The summary, talents, and items are specific to the role; builds, duration, and matchups aggregate data from all roles because OpenDota does not report the player's role.
Abilities and talents
The most frequently used sequence for the first 10 levels, based on the 79 matches with known skill order across all roles and ranks. Only matches processed by OpenDota have this data, and nearly all of them are professional matches (from the entire patch); the sequence incorporates these matches to provide a representative sample. Hover over each level to view the skill.
