Muerta — hero grid for mains

Muerta is what the game calls the hero in every client; Russian-speaking players say “Муэрта” (or “муерта”). The site's dictionary has no English nickname for Muerta — people just type the name.

The hero's line in Valve's list reads: “Blasts fearsome trickshots and unleashes ethereal ruin”.

In the editor's hero picker, typing “Muerta” or “Муэрта” brings up Muerta.

Muerta is an Intelligence hero (34 of them in the game), ranged, complexity 1 of 3 by Valve's rating, one of the 55 easiest heroes.

Valve's roles for Muerta, rated 1 to 3: Carry ●●●, Nuker ●●○, Disabler ●○○ — maxed out: Carry.

By attributes puts Muerta in the “INTELLIGENCE” (34th of 34) block; By complexity — in the “EASY” (29th of 55) band. Muerta is also in Beginner: easy heroes — column “1 · CARRY”, 12th of 12.

One position only for Muerta: carry (1), with the next best score at just 0.16. The site's position scores (best = 1) are carry 1 · mid 0.16 · offlane 0.09 · soft support 0 · hard support 0, so Pick by stats puts the hero into the “1 · CARRY” row only.

Where the scores come from: in 613 parsed OpenDota matches (data as of 23 Sept 2026) Muerta went safe lane 80% of the time, mid 10% and offlane 10%. Median gold per minute is 561 — core-level gold on the site's scale (540 and up); experience per minute is 775.

The rows of Classic: positions 1–5 hold the 18 most played heroes each and Muerta is not among them; there are two free slots per row, so drop the hero into “1 · CARRY” yourself.

Quickly, the rest of the practical templates for Muerta: not in Meta by stats (ten heroes per position); not in Two columns (44 cores and 44 supports).

The “Make a grid with Muerta” button opens Mains + situational with Muerta first in the MAINS block, followed by Gyrocopter, Shadow Fiend and Morphling — all three share the same main position (carry) and ranged attack.
