It's been nearly a month since patch 7.37d was released. In this time, many matches have been played both on the professional stage and in matchmaking, so it's fair to say that a certain meta has already formed. In this material, CyberScore presents the six best heroes for each core position over the last week.

Best heroes for the first position:

Alchemist. In the past week, Alchemist was played in 3,808 matches with a win rate of 52.70%. The most winning aspect was Seed Money, which brought players a 51.96% win rate. The second aspect, Mixologist, was generally less popular and had a win rate below 50% - 47.28%.

Medusa. Medusa proved to be more popular and successful than the previously mentioned hero: she was played in 5,100 matches with a 52% win rate. Among her aspects, the first one - Venomous Volley - is more desirable than Engorged by 10 times and has a win rate of 53.28%.
Spectre. Due to the meta, Mercurial hardly appears in the game, but this week she was picked 1,442 times. Win rate: 51.60%. The Twist the Knife aspect (51.47%) is more likely to bring success than Forsaken (42.41%).
Slark. Slark appeared in only 1,031 games over the past 7 days, showing a 51.40% win rate. Analytical portal SpectralStats recommends choosing the Dark Reef Renegade aspect (51.68%) as Leeching Leash (49.95%) is less likely to result in a win.
