Chaos Knight — hero grid for mains
Everything for a grid built around Chaos Knight: carry (1) and offlane (3), places in the site's ready layouts, OpenDota numbers as of 23 Sept 2026 and a grid with Chaos Knight already in Mains.
In-game name and nicknames
Chaos Knight is what the game calls the hero in every client; Russian-speaking players say “Хаос Найт” (or “хаос” and “цк”). In chat Chaos Knight also goes by “ck”.
The hero's line in Valve's list reads: “Has strong but random damage output”.
The site's “Choose a hero” window finds Chaos Knight by any of “Chaos Knight”, “Хаос Найт” and “ck”.
Attribute, attack and roles
A melee Strength hero — one of 36 — Chaos Knight gets 1 of 3 on Valve's complexity scale, one of the 55 easiest heroes.
Valve's roles for Chaos Knight, rated 1 to 3: Carry ●●●, Disabler ●●○, Durable ●●○, Pusher ●●○, Initiator ●○○ — maxed out: Carry.

Positions and lanes
Two positions for Chaos Knight: carry (1) first, offlane (3) second, both with a score of 0.5 or more (1 and 0.96). The site's position scores (best = 1) are carry 1 · mid 0.15 · offlane 0.96 · soft support 0.18 · hard support 0.01, so Pick by stats puts the hero into the “1 · CARRY” and “3 · OFFLANE” rows only.
| Position | Score |
|---|---|
| 1 · Carry | 1 |
| 2 · Mid | 0.15 |
| 3 · Offlane | 0.96 |
| 4 · Soft support | 0.18 |
| 5 · Hard support | 0.01 |

Where to put the hero in your grid
In Classic: positions 1–5 Chaos Knight sits in the “3 · OFFLANE” row, 18th portrait of 18. The rows are filled in turn, carry to hard support, each with the 18 most popular heroes of that position not placed above — that is how Chaos Knight ends up there; by the highest score, add the hero to “1 · CARRY” as well — it has two free slots.
Chaos Knight in other layouts: Meta by stats — “OFFLANE”, 7th of 10; not in Two columns (44 cores and 44 supports).
The “Make a grid with Chaos Knight” button opens Mains + situational with Chaos Knight first in the MAINS block, followed by Tiny, Alchemist and Sven — all three share the same main position (carry), the same attribute and melee attack.
