A logic based hero picker
An ergonomic lightning quick hero pick assistant that not only tells you what hero to pick, but also exactly WHY to pick that hero, how best to exploit those reasons, and what problems to itemise against.
Study how the best players dealt with your situation.
Get a quick-searchable overview of tens of thousands of high level games, and how the players dealt with your specific situation.
An overlay based benchmarking tool
A live overlay that lets you synchronise your game-time to a selected high level replay playing the same hero in the same role, allowing you to compare in real time how you fare for last hits, xpm, kills, deaths. Figure out the exact moment you fell behind and what you should have done instead.
Rate Players against a global database
Every time you play against a player, you can rate them and add a comment. After the picking phase, if the player appears in your game again, see not only your comments and rating, but everyone else's for that player.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a cheat?
No. This app is not a cheat. All data is obtained via APIs provided by Valve themselves, and providers like StratzAPI. It's intended as an automated coach and won't give you any game-play advantage a live coach wouldn't provide.
Do I have to put my steam login into your website?
No. This website uses Steam's federated login system. Your password never passes through DotaDog's services. This works similarly to how dotabuff logs you in. You always log in via steam directly, we simply ask steam if the guy that logged in was you.
Does this use Overwolf?
No there is no association to the overwolf or overplus tool. This is a completely standalone app. As such it's far more lightweight and performant.
Will I need to pay extra for updates?
No. The app will continue to be updated free of charge. Your subscription fee essentially funds the development of new features.
Does this work on macOS or Linux?
No. There are no plans to support those operating systems as Dota 2 is primarily played on Windows.
Is this a phone app?
No. This is a desktop app that is designed to run alongside Dota 2.
How can I contact DotaDog for support or feedback?
There is a Discord community where the developers are very active. Please see here: https://discord.gg/YvyMAyxWwe
What is DotaBlitzPicker? is that a separate thing?
DotaBlitzPicker was the beta version name for DotaDog. They are the same app now.
