EvilGeniuses had the chance to sit down and interview Dota Academy's duo of Bruno "shostakovich" Tomaz and Bruno “Statman Bruno” Carlucci. Read on and see them talk about statistical analysis and how it can be useful.
The presence of additional in-game statistics on the Dota 2 client provided valuable insights to spectators and players alike. The Bruno-tandem had devoted time to gather more data and to put them to better use. They had a very factual and informative talk about statistics, its significance and how it can be of value to the game.
In what ways do you believe that stats are important in analyzing professional level games?
Statman Bruno: ... You only have 5 bans in this game, and if you make them count, you can completely destroy a team's playstyle.
Have you guys ever received any feedback from professional players about whether or not your stat collection was helpful to them or their teams?
Statman Bruno: Many times .... We've even had players dedicate us a win when it was with a hero they had abnormally low winrates with!
