This market will resolve to the listed hero picked the most times during The International 2026 (TI 15), scheduled for August 13 – August 23, 2026 in Shanghai, China. Only completed games will be considered for the purposes of this market, including forfeits in games that start. In the case of a tie, this market will resolve to the hero with the higher win percentage. In case a tie persists, this market will resolve to the hero with higher ban rate. In case a tie still persists, the market will resolve to the hero whose name comes first alphabetically. If a match does not complete for any reason, it will not be considered for the purposes of this market. If the competition is cancelled, postponed after September 6, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or the results of The International 2026 are not determined within that timeframe, this market will resolve to "Other". The resolution source for this market will be official information from Dotabuff. However, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
Hoodwink's overwhelming lead in The International 2026 group-stage pick and contest rates has anchored trader consensus at 83.5% implied probability for most-picked hero. The ranged support has appeared in 55+ matches with 94 total contests, valued for its lane control, Acorn Shot utility, Bushwhack crowd control, and ultimate break effect despite a sub-43% win rate. Mirana sits second with roughly 51 appearances and trails at 18.9% in the market, reflecting a narrower but still notable role as a position-five flex pick. Recent qualifier trends and the current patch's emphasis on versatile supports have reinforced Hoodwink's edge, with no comparable hero matching its volume through the opening rounds. Market pricing therefore mirrors the wisdom of crowds reacting to live professional data rather than win-rate outcomes alone.
