Clockwerk — hero grid for mains

The in-game name is Clockwerk — the same in the English and the Russian client. Short names for Clockwerk you will see in chat: “clock”. The game files call the hero “rattletrap”, and the site's search knows that name too. Russian-speaking players say “Клокверк” (or “клок”).

Valve's one-line description from the hero list: “Launches himself into enemies with his hookshot”.

Search in the hero picker is forgiving: “Clockwerk”, “Клокверк”, “clock”, “rattletrap” — each of them lands on Clockwerk.

Clockwerk: Strength attribute, shared with 35 other heroes; melee attack; Valve rates the complexity medium, 2 of 3.

Role dots from Valve: Initiator ●●●, Disabler ●●○, Nuker ●○○, Durable ●○○; full marks for Initiator.

In the ready layouts that means the “STRENGTH” (11th of 36) block of By attributes and the “MEDIUM” (7th of 59) band of By complexity.

Clockwerk is played in two positions — hard support (5) and soft support (4) — like 38 other heroes with two scores of 0.5 or more; the main one is hard support. All five scores (best = 1): carry 0 · mid 0.04 · offlane 0.12 · soft support 0.76 · hard support 1 — which is why the editor's Auto-pick places Clockwerk in the “5 · HARD SUPPORT” and “4 · SUPPORT” rows and nowhere else.

Median gold per minute for Clockwerk is 338, experience 528 — pure support gold on the site's scale (360 or less); by lane, 1,310 parsed OpenDota matches as of 23 Sept 2026 split 52% safe, 5% mid and 43% off.

In Classic: positions 1–5 Clockwerk sits in the “5 · HARD SUPPORT” row, 17th portrait of 18.

Clockwerk in other layouts: not in Meta by stats (ten heroes per position); Two columns — “SUPPORTS”, 36th of 44.

The “Make a grid with Clockwerk” button opens Mains + situational with Clockwerk first in the MAINS block, followed by Elder Titan, Tusk and Undying — all three share the same main position (hard support), the same attribute and melee attack.

To get the grid into the game, press “Download grid” and, with Dota closed, put hero_grid_config.json into Steam → userdata → account number → 570 → remote → cfg — details in how to install a hero grid.

Main in a skin covers arcanas and personas only, and Clockwerk has none there yet; to draw the hero anyway, upload any art to Picture to dots. Among the heroes with skins that are also played as hard support, the closest to Clockwerk are Ogre Magi, Pudge and Vengeful Spirit — their dot drawings are ready for a hard support grid.
