The bars make no sense to me at all. I have no idea what it is, but I doubt it's KDA, cause I feel like my KDA isn't that great on some of my heroes with high bars, and the opposite for low bars.

It's definitely not KDA, my top 2 heroes are Chen and Rubick when I mostly play solomid. It's probably just a variation on their matchmaking algorithm.


What does that have to do with anything. The KDA you get on those two heroes is better in comparision to other people who play those heroes at around your matchmaking level.

Like, going 15/0 on invoker isn't THAT impressive, and probably won't make your performance go up by that much, while going 15/0 on CM will probably make it fill up instantly.


I'm not so sure it's KDA. I believe at my level, most people suck at killing with ench, but are good at killing with ursa.
However, for me its the other way around. My KA/D with ench is waaay higher than my KA/D with ursa. And yet the performance bar of my ench is shit compared to ursa.

So either enchantress does a LOT better than ursa in pubs, or kda's impact is questionable.
Hell, dotabuff says the most kills I've ever gotten in a game were on my ench. And yet my performance bar is 2/5, and every single pub ench I've seen fails miserably.
Come to think of it, my gpm/xpm on my ench are pretty good too.. not sure why it's not reflected in my performance bar.

I've heard of people saying accuracy of skills used, timing between more than 1 skill, and other random things that affect the performance bar. I think there are a ton of factors included that people have not posted about so far.

From my experience, not being based solely on K/D/A makes sense because I usually don't land that many in these fields but I have a few heroes that are 4+ bars.

Also again, please don't blindly compare as the tooltip states that it measures based on your skill level.

Oh man in pub matchmaking I just had a team of 5 relatively skilled players who worked as a team and had ds/naga/tide/disruptor/maiden composition. Ended the game at ~30 minutes with something like 56 to 11.

So fun to play when everybody works together.

yeah.....my bar seemingly has no relevance on what i would call "skill" on my heroes. My "best hero" judging by compliments and wins has been veng.....but my veng is 3 bars. My zeus is pretty effective, but not exactly superb, and I have 4 bars. My best w/l ratio is mirana...rocking out at 2.5 bars. I do terrible at WR, despite playing her a decent bit, and I'm rocking a ~3.9 bar on her. My best hero IS my highest rated though. My sand king is pretty pro, with a good number of games played, a solid win percentage, and is rated just above my zeus. I would think it would be higher though.....I rarely fail ultis, and have multiple carry sk games with stupid 15-0 scores and the like. But it sits right above my zeus, which, while I have had good games with him, he's not exactly a high skill hero, and i've had some pretty spectacular fail games with him(forced to go side lane...feeding).

My 1 win 4 loss AA is my second most skilled hero. (I many other heroes with higher win/loss.)

yup tide hardlane is awesome. Most people just try to kill him so they go over aggressive on him and get anchorsmashed to death. Passive laning however can hurt tide really hard in lvl and gold (well, almost the same for all hardlane hero but tide cant even go gank).

I recommend the shark hat for tidehunter, he looks so cool with that hat!

Also, today mm god has been kind to me, won like 6/7 games in a row (there is one lost game in between but it was a 6mins leaver game). Not going to touch the damn mm until tomorrow evening again, while i'll probably play some TL2 tonight, so excited!!

AND YOU CAN COMBINE THE SHARK BACK WITH THE OCTOPUS HAT
