چکیده
Dota 2 is a multiplayer online game in which two teams of five players control “heroes” and compete to earn gold and destroy enemy structures. Teamwork is essential and heroes are chosen to create a balanced team that will counter the opponents’ selections. We studied how the win rate depends on hero selection by performing logistic regression with models that incorporate interactions between heroes. Our models did not match the naive model without interactions which had a 62% win prediction rate, suggesting cleaner data or better models are needed.
