Free to use. No invitation code is required.

How to use

Lineup overview: Automatically assign roles and compare three lanes and team matchups. Adjust lane assignments manually when needed.

Draft simulator: Get next-turn suggestions and undo choices. Select teams to include their players’ hero pools.

Suggestions include supporting samples. Analysis uses pro and high-rank match data and retains uncertainty when samples are limited. Composite scores compare candidates; they are not win probabilities.

Frequently asked questions
What is Bladeform?

Bladeform is an independent Dota 2 lineup analysis and draft simulator. It helps players, viewers and analysts compare both lineups and explore the next pick or ban in Captains Mode.

Is Bladeform free? Do I need an invitation code?

Lineup overview and draft simulation are currently free after login. Register with an email and password; an invitation code is optional. You can create an account without one.

How do lineup overview and draft simulation differ?

Lineup overview compares roles, three lanes, counters and synergy when both teams have heroes selected. Draft simulation compares candidates pick by pick while a Captains Mode draft is still in progress.

Is the overall score a win probability?

No. Overall scores compare lineups or candidate heroes. Separately labelled win probabilities are model estimates and do not guarantee results. Consider sample size, patch, players and actual lanes.
