Spell casts
How many times the players of each hero press their abilities in a game (every cast of every ability, items not counted). STRATZ gives no per-game totals, so the numbers come from our own sample: ranked matches whose replays we parse in the background, all ten players of each match.

≈ A sample of 165 parsed matches, not all of Dota: a hero needs at least 5 games to be listed (3 on one position), the numbers are rough until the sample grows. The rank is the average medal of the players of the match (≈, the season ranks STRATZ gives); a match with no ranks is only in All. The position is the one STRATZ gives for the player. Casts are counted from the replay: an ability that is cast in a channel or toggled counts by the game's own record.
