See thats whats so engrossing about this game. Shadow Demon IS NEVER fucking picked in low tier. I have seen him like twice in 300+ games and both times that player was terribad. Yet he is the most picked in these tourny's...lol.
Even Batrider. Another non-pick in low tier. Have only seen him have a good game like once or twice. Its so crazy how the hero effectiveness shifts as skill level rises. I wonder if it is really just a trend or raw results from real data. Like, there are so many heroes to choose from, so there is only so much time to pick and really figure out each one, and the ones that are "figured out" seem to be picked up by a good % of lower skill players.
