Sources & sample limits
- OpenDota parsed pro telemetry; missing observations stay blank.
- STRATZ net-worth histories use up to 12 recent games per hero, with their own sample count. Unavailable histories stay blank; earned gold is separate.
- Items use recorded purchase times plus final inventories; earlier sold items and exact six-slot histories are not reconstructed.
- Counter-item windows are mechanical guidance, not measured item-driven win-rate changes.
- Public results use dated OpenDota public matches; longer games are a different cohort.

For late-game evidence, compare the 25–60 minute outcome cohorts and recorded economy above. These do not prove which hero outscales the other.
