Hello.
Dota 2 leaderboards are quite bad right now, and i'm not even talking about runners. I'm talking about the board itself.
Right now, it's pretty hard to change something, without breaking the rest of the runs in the table, hence, i'm planning to delete ALL non-Current(7.07) patch runs, and move them towards a separate Google Docs Table, and store them there.
Why?
-
It makes the leaderboards a bit more easier to watch. Some categories that i wanted to add are bad, because hey, i can't exclude 7.00 and Legacy "patches" from it. Moving to the Misc. won't solve the problem of the runs being lost one day or another thanks to my manipulations to the board. Hence, the change.
-
It allows me to work a bit faster with the categories/rules/organization stuff, instead of thinking what should i do with the rest of the runs, to avoid them disappearing.

We might have a lot of new people jumping in towards Dota speedrunning, and i want to reform the leaderboards to look somewhat fresh, instead of being a legacy dumpster of the game that nobody runs.
I am waiting for everybody, that has runs in Dota2 for your input, because if i won't receive any, >i'll kick in the changes to the leaderboard ~14.11.2017<. That's more than enough to response.
Thanks for reading this wall of text.
UPD: The backup leaderboard will always be here and will be updated, should the new patch come in.

Being one of the biggest patches we've seen since 7.00, this one definitely warrants a move to Legacy. Certain heroes became unviable for old strategies, such as Clockwerk now being useless for 100 lasthits+denies. The changes are so vast, that we might need some category shakeups later on, if we ca
