Weaver — hero grid for mains
Everything for a grid built around Weaver: carry (1), places in the site's ready layouts, OpenDota numbers as of 23 Sept 2026 and a grid with Weaver already in Mains.

In-game name and nicknames
The in-game name is Weaver — the same in the English and the Russian client. The site's dictionary has no English nickname for Weaver — people just type the name. Russian-speaking players say “Вивер”.
Valve sums the hero up in one line: “Rewinds time to reverse damage and position”.
Search in the hero picker is forgiving: “Weaver”, “Вивер” — each of them lands on Weaver.
Attribute, attack and roles
Weaver: Agility attribute, shared with 34 other heroes; ranged attack; Valve rates the complexity medium, 2 of 3.
Valve's roles for Weaver, rated 1 to 3: Escape ●●●, Carry ●●○ — maxed out: Escape.
By attributes puts Weaver in the “AGILITY” (21st of 35) block; By complexity — in the “MEDIUM” (57th of 59) band.
Positions and lanes
The main position for Weaver is carry (1); less often the hero shows up as offlane (score 0.30). The site's position scores (best = 1) are carry 1 · mid 0.13 · offlane 0.30 · soft support 0.14 · hard support 0.02, so Pick by stats puts the hero into the “1 · CARRY” row only.
| Position | Score |
|---|---|
| 1 · Carry | 1 |
| 2 · Mid | 0.13 |
| 3 · Offlane | 0.30 |
| 4 · Soft support | 0.14 |
| 5 · Hard support | 0.02 |
Median gold per minute for Weaver is 486, experience 725 — between support (360) and core (540), a supportness of 0.22 by the site's formula; by lane, 549 parsed OpenDota matches as of 23 Sept 2026 split 60% safe, 8% mid and 33% off.
Where to put the hero in your grid
The rows of Classic: positions 1–5 hold the 18 most played heroes each and Weaver is not among them; there are two free slots per row, so drop the hero into “1 · CARRY” yourself.
Other ready grids with Weaver: not in Meta by stats (ten heroes per position); not in Two columns (44 cores and 44 supports).
With the button at the top, the MAINS block of Mains + situational starts with Weaver, then Templar Assassin, Clinkz and Morphling, because all three share the same main position (carry), the same attribute and ranged 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.

Drawing the hero in your grid
Main in a skin covers arcanas and personas only, and Weaver 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 carry, the closest to Weaver are Phantom Assassin, Shadow Fiend and Drow Ranger — their dot drawings are ready for a carry grid.
