I really think that Dazzle will be the "highest total healing" with his shadow wave and mekansm. I agree with most of your other ones, though. Lone druid being the one with the highest GPM is a bit of a high shot for me though..
if your highest tower damage and most banned isnt lycan you are crazy
[QUOTE=Anonymuzz;44770315]if your highest tower damage and most banned isnt lycan you are crazy[/QUOTE] i actually forgot lycan existed because no one plays him in the pubs i play i may reconsider my prediction now
OD and Lifestealer really aren't that popular lately For most picked I'd go Dazzle and most banned Lycan
I went with venomancer on most assists, but then again haven't seen him picked too much lately
Here are my predictions. Can't say I'm super confident about a couple of them.

Should be Dazzle.
guys do keep in mind that "number of heroes never picked or banned" was like 35-40 in ti3. yeah this is the qualifiers so you'd expect to see weirder picks but if you're not rolling at least double digits you're not going to make it also keep in mind that you can and probably will have lots of overlap in the "across the qualifier" section. im pretty sure visage is going to be the most picked hero, which also makes him a good candidate for most deaths. and maybe if you guys have a different support choice for most picked, they'd work well for most assists too for most firstbloods, visage was last year's winner and is still probably the safest bet because of how soul assumption is practically designed to snipe early kills most kills overall is probably the hardest choice for me. i'm not sure which carry can both a) participate and score kills early and b) is a high priority pick within the meta. personally i think ursas seeing a rise in comp and he absolutely fits the bill as far as the first category goes. most kills in a single game seems fairly obvious. high nukes, low tower push, my money's on tinker. even if he isnt picked up much, it'll only take one good tinker game to really put him on the map and lastly im not sure if i want to put alchemist down for single game highest gpm, but i feel like i should. he's been drifting out of meta (especially as a pos1 carry), but like tinker, it'll only take one game for him to top the charts
People's predictions seem to be all over the place. Haven't seen much consistency.
Does it look like I have any safe bets? [t]http://i.imgur.com/zFC7miw.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/xTVCiHs.jpg[/t]

Most picked for IS mirana. [editline]13th May 2014[/editline] and highest gpm has been sf with 821gpm so far.
Im thinking that Alchemist is obviously highest GPM? :downs: Also i put Chen in highest healing, but dazzle is a really obvious one
[QUOTE=metalhand;44804859]Im thinking that Alchemist is obviously highest GPM? :downs: Also i put Chen in highest healing, but dazzle is a really obvious one[/QUOTE] alchemist is actually a risky choice, because he'd have to a) be picked and b) be played in a farming role he's gotten really unpopular since the change to his ult and has since only been seen used as a support if at all a part of me still thinks it might be possible but after watching some of the na qualifiers i might jump ship to shadowfiend
[QUOTE=Anonymuzz;44804903]i might jump ship to shadowfiend[/QUOTE] that's what i did, feels like the safest bet what did you guys put for most first bloods?
[QUOTE=Keychain;44804909]that's what i did, feels like the safest bet what did you guys put for most first bloods?[/QUOTE] i was gonna go with visage but he hasnt been picked up as much as i would have expected. so i'm just going to go with mirana because she's far and away the most picked so far
@Rarara (Don't want to quote pictures) I think the Necrophos is really risky as he needs to not only get picked, but outheal Dazzle - Sure, that happens in an equal length game but Dazzle will be picked more and more likely to be healing throughout a 60 minute game or so
[QUOTE=Rarara;44803000]Does it look like I have any safe bets? [t]http://i.imgur.com/zFC7miw.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Pretty wild predictions..
21-25 rampages, what the fuck, not happening and 13-15 neutral kills? I'm guessing there will be like 3 max.
Neutral kills include Roshan so I assume it will actually go beyond 15 looking at the amount of Roshan suicides so far in the American qualifiers. Rampage number is fucked up, I thought I lowered it. I took Necrolyte on the off chance that he gets picked in a long newcomer versus newcomer game. Definitely changing GPM to Shadow Fiend though. [editline]14th May 2014[/editline] Also getting 4 compendium points for a right prediction sounds pretty shitty, I hope it's at least 40..
These SEA games are going to throw off everything. They don't pick mirana and just pick naga, invoker, panda, and doom every game.
[QUOTE=aydin690;44821552]These SEA games are going to throw off everything. They don't pick mirana and just pick naga, invoker, panda, and doom every game.[/QUOTE] Next up is Europe so I'll worry about that later.

[QUOTE=aydin690;44821552]These SEA games are going to throw off everything. They don't pick mirana and just pick naga, invoker, panda, and doom every game.[/QUOTE] You realise it's written in huge ass letters at the top of the first prediction page that the compendium predictions only take the EU Qualifiers in count. Otherwise they would be locked already.
I'm gonna say this now, As of spring cleaning, I think First bloods - Visage, Maybe Windrunner? Most Picked - I'm somewhat leaning towards Ember Spirit. I think with the addition of him, there's a chance that someone will wait until The International to bring him into the meta. Most Banned is gonna be Lycan Most gold earned is more than likely gonna be Alch but could be Tinker or Shadow Fiend or even Meepo if Fnatic runs him alot. Those are my thoughts
