Will I get banned?

Highground stays outside the game: it reads what Dota 2 shares with third-party tools through Valve's Game State Integration, and your visible game window, like OBS. It never reads game memory, injects code, changes other game files or plays for you. It is independent of Valve and cannot speak for Valve's future decisions. Full answer in the FAQ.

Draft · before the horn

Pick what wins against their lineup.

Every open hero for your position, ranked by the win-% points it adds against their picks. Your own pick gets a grade too.

When picks lock Item plan. Black King Bar. Winning pros on this hero against this lineup included it in their build.

Laning · 8:12

Back off before the gank lands.

Lina and Anti-Mage just left their lanes while you farmed alone on their side: 68% risk. One short line, in time to walk away.

In your ear Lina left mid. Anti-Mage left top.

Try it now · the real draft model

Pick their heroes. See what beats them.

The same numbers the app shows in your draft, from 1,844,238 Divine+ matches on patch 7.41.

Best picks for you
  1. Loading the draft model…

Each number is in win-% points for your side: with Pro meta, the hero's pro meta tier at your position this patch, on the Divine+ win-% scale (rescaled tier score, not a measured win chance); with All heroes, its Divine+ win rate; plus its matchups against their picks from Divine+ games (pros play too few games per hero pair). The Divine+ win rate and matchups are weighted like the app's qualified draft model. A strong guide, never a guarantee.

One call, wherever you look

Your coach. Inside Dota.

The voice is the coach. The same call shows in the app, over your game and on your stream, so nothing ever disagrees.

The app · second screen

The call, and why.

Your danger for the next 30 seconds, win chance, the map, timers and your item plan. Reviews of every game live here too.

In-game HUD · on by default

Over your game. Out of your way.

Heroes that just went into the fog stay pinned on your minimap with the seconds since. Win chance, risk, the latest call and your next item sit where you already look. Ctrl+Alt+H hides it.

For streamers

Let chat play along.

One OBS browser source, horizontal or vertical: map, win chance, item plan and every call on screen as the coach says it. We set it up with you.

FAQ

The questions everyone asks.

What is Highground for?

To make you a better player — more aware of the map, making the right call at the right moment, spending your attention on what actually decides the game. It never plays for you. It helps you read the match the way it was meant to be read, and enjoy Dota more for it.

Will I get banned?

Highground reads Valve's Game State Integration feed and visible parts of your Dota window. It does not read game memory, inject code or automate play. Highground is independent of Valve and has no Valve approval; we cannot guarantee account safety or future enforcement decisions.

Does it work at my MMR?

Highground uses your current game state to provide advice. Its models learn from pro matches, but advice can be wrong and effectiveness across ranks is still being evaluated in beta. Start free to see whether it helps you.

Which heroes are covered?

The counter model includes all currently supported heroes. Available advice depends on the hero, the observations available and model confidence; coverage varies by call type.

Will it slow my game down?

The client reads game state, captures a limited part of the visible Dota window when needed, and runs local voice playback and optional HUD elements. It uses CPU, memory and network resources. Performance depends on your PC; start free before choosing Plus.

Does the coach speak my language?

The voice coach, the Windows app and Coach Mode speak English today. This website is also available in Russian, Czech, Slovak, Polish and Turkish.

Do you have an overlay for streamers?

Yes. We set up an OBS overlay for you, so your viewers see the coach's calls, the map, win chance and the item plan live. See what it looks like, then email us or ask in our Discord.

What does it cost?

Plus is $5.99 monthly or $49.99 yearly. Both renew automatically until cancelled; Plus stays valid through the period you paid for. Free has no end and needs no card: the first 3 games and then 1 game a day fully coached, and a basic review of every other game.
