Alchemist vs Slardar: game-time comparison

These positions face each other in lane. Usual positions are assumed from recent games — change them to match your game.

Role impact

Lane opponents — early trades matter directly.

Side-lane partners still affect the lane; this is not an isolated duel. Whole-match win rates and economy stay unchanged: those samples are not position-filtered.

Usual role

Item priorities · 20:00

  • Spirit Vessel

    Role priority · 8–18 min

    Why against Alchemist

  • Eye of Skadi

    Situational / another teammate may buy · 20–34 min

    Why against Alchemist

    Skadi's attacks cut their healing, regen and lifesteal, so heroes who win by sustaining through fights can't outheal your damage.

  • Public results use dated OpenDota public matches; longer games are a different cohort.
