Top 10 Most Popular Dota 2 Heroes at FISSURE Universe: Episode 6

In FISSURE Universe: Episode 6, several heroes defined the meta of the tournament. Some picks showed great results, while others couldn’t live up to their popularity. Based on the number of picks and win rates, here is the ranking of the top 10 most popular heroes.

Puck: Most Popular — Consistent Impact
Puck was picked 38 times, with a win rate of 47.37%. His mobility and crowd control made him a key element of the strategy, but his overall impact on the game was not always maximal.

Pugna: Highly Effective at High Picks
Pugna was picked 35 times, with a win rate of 71.43%. This hero showed strong effectiveness throughout the tournament, despite his popularity.

Other Heroes in the Top-10:
Dawnbreaker — 30 picks, win rate 43.33%
Ember Spirit — 30 picks, win rate 36.67%
Shadow Shaman — 29 picks, win rate 44.83%
Shadow Fiend — 29 picks, win rate 41.38%
Undying — 29 picks, win rate 44.83%
Marci — 28 picks, win rate 50%
Tusk — 26 picks, win rate 38.46%
Bane — 25 picks, win rate 76%

This statistics again proves that pick frequency does not guarantee success. Ember Spirit and Shadow Fiend struggled despite their high popularity, while Bane and Pugna, with fewer picks, showed exceptional efficiency throughout the tournament.

FISSURE Universe Ep.6 takes place from August 19 to 24, 2025. Teams compete online for a total prize pool of $250,000.
