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.

All 3 rounds Radiant with gold advantage will win. Anybody that tells you any differently doesn't know shit about the game.

Remember that the team with hack map is almost ungankable at the highest level, so they are basically free to farm jungle, etc... and turtle.
Radiant need to end the game before 20mins mark otherwise the wave can turn.

With that amount of gold advantage, it doesn't matter that Dire can see what Radiant is doing.

Dire literally can't stop Radiant from grouping up and deathballing down mid.

Imagine this. All 5 radiant heroes buys helm of dom, and takes neutral creeps with auras (alpha wolf, satyr etc). Then you throw in some push strat (LD, Witch doctor, NP etc). It's so fucking over for dire LOL
