Comebacks
Which heroes win from behind most often. A comeback is a game that the hero's team won after trailing by 8,000 gold or more at some time. First is the hero with the biggest share of such games among all his games; the headers sort by the number of comebacks and by how often the hero wins once the team is behind. From our own sample of parsed matches.

≈ The gold graph of the replay, our own sample (it was not kept before, so the first matches are parsed again in the background and the numbers appear gradually). "Won when behind" = comebacks out of the games in which the team trailed by 8,000 gold or more (in brackets how many such games there were). A hero needs at least a few games to be listed, so the numbers jump until the sample grows. Ordinary drafts and ranked, Turbo is not counted. The position is the one STRATZ gives for the player.
