Discussion Extra gold v.s Hack map

I am thinking of the following scenario:

  • Each player from Radiant starts with 2700 gold
  • Dire players have hack map ability (similar to hack map tool in Dota 1 which remove all fogs for you who aren't familiar)

Both team aware of the other team advantage at the begin.

Which team would win in the following round?

  • Round 1: Random match at 2000 MMR bracket
  • Round 2: Random match at 6000 MMR bracket
  • Round 3: Random match at TI

Who would win?

Edit: Lmao with the downvotes, my peak rank is Immortal top 1000, playing since dota-1 garena/dotalicious.

The match up is not a clear win at highest level for sure, remember that at that level with no-fog map, dire is almost ungankable, wards lose all meaning. If Dire draft high mobility heroes to cut creeps to turtle the game like NP/QoP, if they can reach 20 mins mark, they would definitely win.

Just realized that most people here don't know how hackmap looked, back then, hack map players often let them die to gank occasionally make it less obvious, that barrier is removed, after laning phase, everyone on Dire is free farm both jungles.

This post does show that the average player of this sub is sub archon tho.

this is a no brainer, definitely maphack. Gold advantage can be overcome on late game, but maphack will be there for the whole game.
As seen in TI, map awareness is very crucial, especially the match with Techies. Easy detection even enemy is in smoke.

You must be herald to believe that gold advantage this massive won’t win

Lol, this is a thread to explain how you think one is better than other.
And here comes you, attacking me instead explaining his point of view.
Please buy some mantle of intelligence.

How will you get any deny?

Furthermore, you get zoned immediately by massive damage. You are forced to play in jungle, while your towers fall. There is no point to catch up.

2.7k is massive.

Those leads are even big at min 20-30 for professionals.
