What are your predictions? Mainly mine are:

Most GPM:Spectre

Most kills:Gyro

Most picked:Ember Spirit

Most assists:Rylai

Most deaths:Rylai

Also would like to know if ember will still be picked as the nerf was pretty heavy.

Ember Spirit hasn't been picked much lately, fallen off to be picked/banned at 2nd pick or ban phase now. Still really powerful, but it's not exactly the trend right now.

Your predictions are... well, not exactly predictions I would agree with. All of those aren't really picked that much at this point, I doubt Spectre will be picked up other than probably a pick from Na'Vi in an unimportant game in group stages.

If these besides the imba spirit one are "in a single match" predictions then I guess they can pe plausible (besides spec, that's just not going to happen with heroes like Luna).

Possible I guess, but I'd have to disagree.

To be fair, the Predictions only cover the Qualifiers, so you have the European, American, Chinese, and Asian Metas to consider, NOT including the Invited Teams, so Na'vi, EG, DK, etc. aren't included in these.

Spectre doesn't really have much going for her GPM wise, Naga Siren and Meepo are the strongest GPM Heroes in the game, since they can Farm a Lane and Jungle at the same time...easily.

^ You have to sort the results yourself, but a Gyrocopter with 21 games makes it seem like a reasonable bet to me. While a Gyrocopter can do a lot of damage, he' not neccessarily going to be the one to secure the Kill, especially now that Kill Securing with Supports is more the norm since they need the Gold more and the Carry will just keep on Farming afterwards anyway.

My bet? Storm Spirit, lots of Kill Secure potential with Overload and massive Ball Lightning dives.

In the Top 25 Assists logged, Mirana shows up 5 times. In the top 50, Crystal Maiden is nowhere to be found.

Fairly reasonable, but considering the new Buff to Vengeful Spirit and the fact that she will practically commit suicide to save Carries with Netherswap, I'll bet on her instead.

Actually, it only really affects his Early Game, wasn't that bad of a Nerf. He only does 40 less Damage per Sleight of Fist hit at lvl16 now.

Oh ****, only for qualifiers? I... did not know that.

I would personally give most assists to something like an Ancient Apparition. Most GPM will probably be something like a Luna, and most picked would be... Batrider?

I don't know much about the meta yet.

Vengeful suicides are becoming the norm atm in games ... swap carry out and die now carry survive and the killer is impotent. ive even seen a venge bait a hard carry into killing her in a jungle knowing her hard carry was hiding then boom hard carry jumps in and takes them out while they have the reductions on them.(sneaky B*&^h) haha

most gpm: naga

Most kills: storm or cent (them early lvl kills)

Most deaths : Venge

Most assists: AA or invoker (solid presence in team fights)

Most picked: AA (too much to give to be overlooked)

I WILL DESTROY YOU ALL.... WITH FLUFFY BUNNIES

I feel the same, everything seems a bit vague after 6.81.

Never thought of rubick and mirana, seen in almost every match I have to say.

Are we talking about single games or the whole qualifier here?

Most GPM: in a game, i l vote alchemist becouse there is a chance some team will still play him as a carry.

Most kills: if axe will keep getting picked it will be him. Almost 100% on this. Ember is combined games.

Most picked:Ancient apparition.

Most assists:In a single game something like AA, spectre or bat. Over all the games almost centainly bat. If he keeps getting picked which he should.

Most deaths: shadow shaman for both. He is slow, squishy, blinks into the middle of fights, so as a result he will die a lot. Although the single game death count could be anyone really.

I'd say this is possible but unlikely, if he does get run as a Carry, I see him getting shut down, or at least slowed down providing the ohter Team doesn't massively screw up...actually never mind, he's likely. -_-

Can't beleive I forgot about Axe's Kill Secure potential ._.

I'm sensing the most Deaths in a single game will go to an American Bane 8{D

O yea, BTW. I was always assuming they we need to predict the MOST kills in the whole qualifier, not the highest avarage kills/game.
Im not so sure now however.
