What's new

Set a challenge start date and duration to keep one record across streams. The overlay, !wl, and public profile show progress such as 14 of 30 days, then return to per-stream mode automatically.

For a correction, choose ranked or unranked, enter an amount from 1 to 1000, then add or remove wins or losses. A total cannot go below zero.

Dotabod stores the correction instead of tracking your offline matches. The corrected record appears in the overlay, !wl, and your public profile.

!resetwl starts the configured window from 0-0 without changing other stream-session commands. !today keeps its one-day hero breakdown.

Each public profile shows the streamer's five most-played heroes and five latest tracked matches, including result, queue, KDA, score, and a link to OpenDota.

Open Match history to switch between individual matches and hero win rates, then filter the record to 7 days, 30 days, or all time.

You can still see MMR and rank details for a Steam account linked from another streamer, but only its owner can change or remove it.

Dashboard requests now ignore account IDs supplied in the URL and authorize every change against your signed-in Dotabod account.

Open Auto Commands on Match Start to choose !np, !smurfs, !gm, !lg, or !avg. Each row now includes the command description and sample reply, and Dotabod warns you when the feature is on but nothing is selected.

High-MMR Match Detection now explains why Dotabod creates short Twitch clips at 8500+ MMR, which commands lose roster data when detection is off, and which games remain unaffected.

Dota has two different draft screens and Dotabod was only reading one of them. On the All Pick pick screen the names sit in the top bar, not on the mid-screen cards, so it was reading the hero grid instead and finding nothing — which is why those games fell back to "Player 1, Player 2". It now reads both layouts and keeps whichever actually returns names, taking readable rosters from 82% to 90% across the clips we tested.

The roster screen with names, ranks, and heroes is only up for about 30 seconds, and Dotabod's clip was landing in the last few of them — so any small drift missed it. The capture now aims for the middle of that window, roughly tripling the room for error before a game comes back empty.

A failed draft read could also mark a match "done" and throw away the good roster clip that came later, so some games lost data they had already captured. That no longer happens.

When the hero bar is partly hidden behind your own HUD, Dotabod could misread a portrait and confidently name the wrong hero. It now cross-checks against the hero Dota reports you're actually playing and corrects that slot instead of guessing.

It triggers on the in-game smoke-activated event, which Dota only sends for your own team, so it never reveals an enemy smoke — and it's separate from the existing Smoke alert, which fires whenever your own hero gets the smoke debuff.

A few seconds after a teammate smokes, Dotabod checks whether your hero actually caught the buff. If you got left behind it posts a single line ribbing you; if you were in the smoke it stays quiet and lets the Smoke alert announce that your hero is smoked.

Every hero pick or mid-game swap (while you're live) snapshots your equipped wearables to your collection, one entry per hero, refreshed each time you replay it. No need for chat to run !set.

It holds the chat post until everyone's locked in (strategy phase) so it never tips your pick to stream snipers, and posts at most once per match per hero. !set re-snapshots your current hero on demand, and your public page at dotabod.com/<name>/set shows every hero you've captured.

The page reads your captured loadouts and groups them by hero, with rarity, a completion meter, and a trophy tally. It fills in as you play or run !set, so the more heroes you pick on stream, the more complete it gets.

Lists Dotabod streamers publicly, filterable by rank and sortable by follower count. Viewers can find others using Dotabod, and the network shows up in search.

Commands are grouped into related clusters (like !np, !gm, !avg, !smurfs, !ranked). About every 4th time one runs, Dotabod tacks a one-line hint for a sibling command onto its first reply.

It won't repeat the same suggestion in your channel within 30 minutes, won't suggest the command just used, and only suggests commands you have enabled. Turn it off with the toggle on the commands page.

Counts other Dotabod-registered users in your match (live broadcasters sending GSI, plus the SourceTV roster) and never shows names, to avoid cross-chat drama.

Pro adds a " · N other streamer(s)" suffix on !np, plus an automatic heads-up in chat about other streamers ~90 seconds after the match starts.

A bare !won or !lost (no match ID) resolves the most recent finished match of your current stream session, handy when Dotabod disconnected before the match ended. Re-resolving a match doubles the MMR change to undo the old result and apply the new one.

!unresolved lists this session's matches with no recorded result, newest first (up to 10), each with hero, K/D/A, score, length, and the match ID to pass to !won or !lost.

Kicks in for Immortal / 8500+ MMR games, where Valve hides the public draft. Dotabod auto-captures short overlay clips at draft (~46s), the strategy phase (~50s), and ~60s into the game.

Its Vision service reads the in-game hero bar (the row of ~60px portraits) and returns up to 10 heroes with a per-slot confidence score, falling back to draft player names until heroes load. Vision-detected heroes take priority when building the !np roster.

Last.fm's API returns names with HTML entities (like &#39; for an apostrophe). Dotabod now decodes those on the way in and stops re-escaping them on the way out to Twitch, so apostrophes and ampersands show as real characters instead of &#39; / &amp;.

Commands like !geo, !stats, !match, !friends, !count, and !fixdbl each got their own on/off switch in the dashboard, so you can tailor exactly which ones your chat can use.

The connector polls for your active Steam account while you stream and links it automatically, with status feedback and built-in troubleshooting if it doesn't appear.

Twitch's Lead Moderator is a separate badge from a regular mod. Dotabod now grants Lead Moderators mod-level access to mod-only commands like !won, !toggle, and !modsonly.
