The most common order. Games count if they followed it for as long as they lasted, from 10 points on. Gold numbers: the levels where an ultimate point or a talent usually comes. T: a talent is taken here; the tree shows which.
Talents
Talents at 10, 15: the games of this build. Talents at 20, 25: all the hero's games at this rank and position, because this build has under 30 games on a side. Under each talent: how often it is picked, win rate, games. ★ the higher win rate we are 95% sure of, with at least 30 games on each side. Bar: how often each side is picked.
