First of all: kunkka wins over sniper imo. Necro vs kunkka will be hard. I guess maybe kunkka will win.
The final will be probably either Invoker or Pudge vs Rubick or Slark.
Why do people care so much about this anyway? 90% of the voters won't even buy it, even if it's for their favourite hero.
why do people care about ti? 99.99% of people aren't even affected by it in any way
Sniper would win over kunkka.
Doesn't everybody like the short funny guy... Besides sniper arcana would look cool.
HOHoHaHa xD
Vote for Sniper!
Rubick must be the last hero to get an arcana, and his arcana must give all stolen spells the effects of all the other arcanas
^Ah suddenly have an idea - what if Rubick will have a baby cute version of the hero he stole spell following him around?
It would be lovely.
and lolicon from secret fighting club can jerk off on it
well what do u know, all of my predictions except ta/wr were correct
the overall vote count dropped drastically, absoltely every hero that has made it thus far has less votes cast for them than in the previous round, even though i expected the opposite. looks like lots ofpeople just dont care about the vote after their favorite hero is out. this also means that the amount of hate votes/"anti" votes or just preference votes will be a lot lower, unless reddit crusaders wake up and hate vote invo/pudge closer to the end of the vote
this enables us to make bolder predictions, guided mainly by popularity of the hero and not it being anooing or matchup specific or whatever. since wr, the hero i thought would make it to quarters at least, is out, and i've got more data, i took another look at the vote:
really not sure about the outcome of this though, invoker is massively more popular than rubick, but knowing reddit, and factoring in the fact that he's the only full support hero left, it may go either way
I'm gunna give a prediction here: Invoker will win it all.
Not too big of a prediction, but I also predict that the arcana will be a female Invoker set, and allow you to customize the colors of QWE.
Edit: QWE beyond blue, pink and orange (yellow).
aop is the best hero for an arcana atm imho, but i think it will win in one of the next two votes, not in this one
2 bad none of the heroes id buy an arcana for would ever win
No he's a goddamn overpicked lame symbol of autism hero with 9999999 cosmetics already
and anti mage arcana for what? i think golden basher is enough making am arcana is ugly
@arin
was it meant to me? 2 was a sub for "too" in "too bad"
actually id buy arcana for any of the three - saw, nyx, bh; but i dont think any of those deserve an arcana.
dunno what retards vote for sven arcana instead of ember. sven has a shitton of sets and unique attack/warcry effects already
I'm gunna give a prediction here: Invoker will win it all.
Not too big of a prediction, but I also predict that the arcana will be a female Invoker set, and allow you to customize the colors of QWE.

A Pudge arcana would be pretty neat too I guess. You could have a ton of fun with changing his stuff. Besides, he doesn't really have good sets.
@snu
If your prediction turns out to be true I'll be ready to quit the game
all of my predictions are correct again, pogchamp but also feelsbadman because now ive got no heroes to vote for
the trend with all heroes receiving less and less votes every consecutive round is broken, but the hero's popularity is still the main factorso all of my further predictions stay the same
(inb4 noone cares)
another week, another flawless prediction
man i wish i was as good at dota as i am at guessing this shit
prediction stay the same, invo rubick final which invo wins
@tribonx
i guess in 2 weeks, since there are 2 rounds left, and previously each one lasted for a week
god damn I hate all the heroes left. I don't want people spamming any of them except maybe earthshaker. Invoker spam will suck balls, I love sniper but loathe playing against or with as a teammate, yes I am a hypocrite, people already spam pudge so I guess that's ok, sven kinda sucks to play vs. TA is meh.
Fuck these heroes tbh. I dont hate heroes but invo players are fucking jerks. I dont want these jerks to be happy so i will vote rubick. Invo players are fucking noov arrogant piece of shits. Mostly.

i think its far enough in the voting to do more or less accurate predictions
here are mine:
crossed out the heroes that will almost certanly lose their round in my opinion, yellow is just my (un)educated guess/gut feeling
things to keep in mind:
-heroes with a lot of cosmetic items/annoying heroes will cause some people to vote against them, boosting the opposing heros chance to win even if they're way less popular
-all atlernative options should be considered for players on every voting stage, especially in the later rounds, the matchup shouldn't be looked at in vacuum because u dont vote for each pair of opponents but rather distribute ur votes(i.e lots of ppl will face a choice of either voting for their fav hero or against pudge/invo/whatever hero they dont like)
-2015/2016 arcana votes can be used for a reference, but keep i mind a lot has changes since 2015(the 2015 qop/pudge matchup the former won not only because of pudge hate factor but also qop being a top meta hero(will still probably be one the next week) while pudge was completely irrelevant(iirc his hook still had like 300 range at lv1 back then), now pudge is extremely relevant in pubs, which may or may not play out to his advantage(i think a lot more ppl will hate vote against pudge now)). also dont forget that 2016 results are massively skewed because of reddit memers, especially towards the end of the vote
-previous round results(raw vote amounts) can be used, but mind all the previously mentioned factors(hate vote, most prominent in riki/aa matchup, aa would never get 1.7 mil votes wasn't he matched against riki(2.5mil votes))
-if you can't determine the winner in a matchup it doesn't matter the whole branch is undefined, whoever wins the wk/naix matchup almost certainly loses to shaker, if slark wins the rubick/slark matchup he probably loses to luna because of hate vote, while if rubick gets through he will probably win vs luna too
any second opinions?
