Spectre

Victory · 15 / 3 / 15 · 35:11

Clear

Dominant stomp, farming still the weak link

InvokerThe Analyst

Invoker has audited the replay and finds little to condemn. Three deaths across thirty-five minutes, one of them at 31:18 to Lion while your side held a 27,129 gold lead — a careless stroll, but a harmless one at that margin. The blemish lies elsewhere: 46 last hits at 10:00 and 4.6 last hits per minute place you in the 11th percentile on Spectre, a farming rate your kill count concealed rather than corrected.

AxeThe Enforcer

Axe watched the fights and Axe approves. From 21:13 onward you won six straight and did not die in any of them — 25:31 you took three heads and walked away clean. The early Blade Mail at 10:53 and Diffusal at 17:19 gave you the tools before the enemy had answers. Axe respects this. Now stop wandering alone at 31:18.

Crystal MaidenThe Mentor

This was lovely to watch. You bought Bloodthorn at 29:09 and used it in the last fight at 33:44 that broke their base — that is exactly how a big item should be spent, not thrown away. My only worry is that your farm never quite kept pace with your kills; between those fights, please find a camp or a wave. You are clearly improving, and I noticed.

Keep the aggression, but raise your creep income between fights — target 65-70 last hits by 10:00 and never idle after a won fight.

Why this isn't another stat site

Dashboards show you numbers.
The Council tells you what they mean.

  • ◆ Item timings judged against your role, your gold, and what happened next.
  • ◆ Deaths clustered by context: throwing a lead vs. losing a fight vs. unavoidable.
  • ◆ Council memory: the same mistake twice gets a harsher hearing.
  • ◆ Percentile benchmarks against players on your hero.
