The International 2024, (but just?) The Numbers. Some interesting facts, stats, and minor insults as we look back at the 123 games of TI2024 (yes, I'm including the Group Stage, The Seeding Deciders, The Road To The International all together!) noxville.substack.com/p/the-internat…

The overall most experienced matches ever played: 1st, 17721 caps: @ TI2021 -- EG vs Elephant (Abed, iceiceice, Arteezy, Cr1t, Fly vs Yang, Eurus, Somnus, Super, Fy) 2nd, 17152 caps: @ Road to TI 2025 -- Vici vs XG (Xm, poloson, Ame, XinQ, Xxs vs Eurus, Yang, Kaka, Dy, Ori)

Even more props for @Collapse1221 - he played 13 different heroes in 13 games. This is the tied most of anyone who's done X unique in X games (along with Yang from Starladder Invitational S5). Highest (X-1) out of X is Somnus from ESL B'ham 2019 (16 unique in 17 games).

A fantastic event by @TSpirit_Dota2, going 12-1. This is the 5th highest winrate by a team (with 10+ games) in a LAN event. Ahead of them are: * two perfect runs (MVP Phoenix @ KDL S3 & VP @ ESL B'ham '18) * two other X-1 runs (Secret @ ESL Kato '19 & Zephyr @ KDL S1).

11th in # snatches per game (in LAN events).

Was cleaning up some old data from early 2013, and found an @AdmiralBulldog account which he played ~40 games on. Included in that were 5 games on Nature's Prophet (and some on Lone Druid!) so he's actually on 240 Furion games!

Team Spirit. The upturn professionals 😎 Big shoutout to @Noxville for noticing this 🤝

Trivia Time! There's been over 74k pro matches in Dota's history, but only 239 megacreep comebacks. Which two legendary teams have made the most (8 each)?

A metric that I developed w/ @TeaGuvnor @ @BLASTDota SLAM was "average throws". In the games you lose, what was the biggest lead you had (could be 0). Of teams w/ 40+ losses this year, @TundraEsports have the biggest avg throw (5029.9) & 7x 15k+ throws. datdota.com/teams/average-…
