Your DOTA 2 coach,
from draft
to debrief.
Your next match builds on the last. Mentoroid helps you understand your habits, choose what to practise, and follow your progress as you play.
This is what the coach sounds like. Play with sound on.
Coach: “Block your creep wave for lane advantage.”
Open videoSee how you play each role.
Your match history tells you more than your win rate. Mentoroid looks at how you farm, fight and use the map, so you can see where you're doing well and where you're falling behind.
- A profile for each role
- Review your carry games without your support matches skewing the picture.
- Compare with your bracket
- See how your stats compare with players at your rank, playing the same role.
- See more than your KDA
- The performance web covers economy, hero impact, survival and map presence, including your contribution as a support.
Know what you're
picking into.
A familiar hero can have a very different game against a different lineup. Mentoroid reads the draft and helps you plan around who you're playing with and against.
- Hero picks are detected as the draft develops
- Pick suggestions account for your role and the enemy lineup
- Correct a teammate's role if the coach gets it wrong
- Read your game plan before the horn
Before you head to lane
Example briefing- Your role
- Mid
- Early focus
- Wave & rune control
Push the wave before moving for the power rune. Make the enemy mid choose between following you and staying for the creeps.
The coach can remind you to push before you leave mid.
Advice you don't have to stop and read.
It's easy to miss a rune timing or a new enemy item while you're watching your lane. Mentoroid gives you a heads-up over voice, with advice based on your current match.
Choose a situation to read an example callout.
Your wave is pushing toward their tower. Farming it means walking further from yours.
Your coach
Choose a voice and set the volume in the app. Speech is generated on your computer.
Why did that fight go wrong?
You know you died. The useful part is understanding whether it was your positioning, an item choice or a fight you shouldn't have taken. Mentoroid reviews the replay and explains your options, including the calls you got right.
Example review · Select a time to see the coach's feedback.
Leaving the wave for a rune
You left mid before pushing the wave. While you moved toward the rune, the enemy mid stayed for the creeps.
Start setting up for the rune before it spawns. If you can safely push the wave first, you'll give up fewer creeps by leaving.
Know what to practise next.
If the same mistake keeps showing up, it's worth working on. Mentoroid looks across your matches for habits like missed rotations or too few sentries, and helps you set a goal for your next game.
It also points out what you're doing well. You shouldn't have to lose a game to get useful feedback.
Are you getting more consistent?
One good game doesn't tell you whether a habit has stuck. Follow your Mentoroid Score, gold and experience per minute across matches to see how your play is changing.

How it works alongside Dota.
Mentoroid runs as a separate app. It uses Valve's game data feed and reads information on your game screen.
Runs separately from Dota
Mentoroid doesn't inject code into Dota or read its memory. You control your hero and make the decisions.
Voice runs on your computer
Hero detection, screen reading and speech generation happen locally. Your Steam password stays with Steam.
Built with FPS in mind
The coach limits its processing to leave room for Dota. When you close the game, it hibernates.
It uses Valve's Game State Integration (GSI), a data feed provided by Dota, along with screen reading. After the game, it analyses the replay for a more detailed review.
For a closer look, read the community guide to Dota 2's GSI or the Valve Developer Community reference, which covers GSI in Counter-Strike.
Mentoroid is a coaching companion. It offers advice using Dota's Game State Integration and information visible on your game screen. You still make every decision and play the game yourself.
It doesn't automate gameplay or modify Dota's game process. As with any coaching aid, follow Valve's rules and any additional rules set by your tournament organiser.
