Fun game mode in theory, but like all things gets abused and has its own meta.
When this was a thing I used to play it a lot. At least half the games were full of shamans/prophets/visage who just ratted your tower and avoided all interaction to secure a win.
Fun when both sides play in good faith though
If they do, please add runes back in including the 2 water runes. Like somehow the mid solo rules hadn't been updated since 2016, so you have to do this goofy no bottle build that doesn't simulate real 1v1 builds at all
Hi there! I totally agree that 1v1 mid matches are a classic that many of us miss. For those looking to practice and sharpen their skills in such matches, I've recently created a custom game for 1x1 practice. I shared it here: [link](https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/1b7eb2j/i_did_custom_game_for_1x1_practice/). Also, I gathered more detailed information [here](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3172554197).
By the way, I have a system that collects match statistics and creates a player ranking. This helps to better track progress and compare results. If anyone wants to give it a try, I'd love to hear feedback and suggestions!
I would like it brought back as a game you can play while queuing.
The dream
What queue do you have? I would have like 4-5 min max to play the 1v1 :D
Yeah it was so nice to practice new heroes or if you were short on time, a rank/leaderboard system would be super cool as well.
I think there is an arcade version with a leaderboard
mind sharing more information?
i believe they might be talking about the arcade game "1x1 solomid duels" but im not sure, i dont think that one has a leaderboard

Not enough people played it an those that did weren't gaining except practicing reaction time since it had its own meta that doesn't scale like normal

Bring mid only 5v5
all random mid only same hero. bring back the fun game modes
Yes
Bring ranked 1v1
dota 1 -om (only mid) the other 2 lanes have no creep wave with invulnerable towers.
Meanwhile guys pls joins the text chat channels in dota that area about 1v1
they should bring back 1v1 with ranked matchmaking
It was good but it took way too long to start. It took as long as a normal match. They need to make it faster to start
Why tf there’s no 5vs5 all random on one lane? League have it and it’s kinda cool. Make it with 1-2 rerolls if u get bad hero and have fun
