What it doesโ€‹

Bars

  • Under each hero's portrait โ€” health and mana bars.
  • While Alt is held, the allies' bars are hidden (the game shows its own at that moment).

Abilities

  • Under the portrait, the icon of one of the hero's abilities is shown while it is on cooldown, with a timer. If several selected abilities are on cooldown, the first one in the hero's list order is shown.
  • Which abilities to track is chosen for each hero separately: Abilities tab โ†’ Heroes section โ†’ the hero. The order of icons in the row is the priority; icons can be dragged. If only one icon is enabled, only that one is tracked.
  • By default ultimates are enabled, and for Invoker also Sun Strike, EMP and Tornado. Invoke is in the list but disabled. Passive and toggle abilities (except ultimates), Invoker's orbs and Morphling's Morph are not included in the list.
  • The same selection is available right on the top panel: clicking the ultimate diamond under the portrait opens a card with the hero's abilities. Clicking an icon turns it on or off, dragging changes the order; right-click, Esc or a click outside the card closes it. The diamond shows the state of the first enabled ability: ready, on cooldown, or not enough mana.
  • The frame of an icon on cooldown: green for allies, red for enemies, blue if the owner lacks the mana.
  • Additionally, per the General tab settings: ability level, remaining effect duration, "min:sec" format. Ability charges (if any) are always shown.

Items

  • Under the bars โ€” small icons of the hero's important items: Gem of True Sight, Dust of Appearance, Divine Rapier, Aegis, Cheese, Linken's Sphere, Aeon Disk, Refresher Shard, Smoke of Deceit, wards.
  • While Alt is held, the hero's teleport (TP Scroll or Boots of Travel) with its cooldown is shown instead of the ability icon, if it is checked in the Items list. With "Charge" on, the number of charges is visible on it.

Other

  • Runes โ€” the icon of the active rune above the portrait and a bar of its remaining time.
  • Buyback โ€” the buyback cooldown or its availability under the portrait.
  • Last hits โ€” a "last hits / denies" counter on the portrait.
  • Roles โ€” the roles the enemy queued for when searching for a game (Safe Lane, Mid Lane, Off Lane, Support, Hard Support โ€” names come from the game). Enemies only: the game shows allies' roles itself.
    • In hero selection โ€” under the enemy's card, the way the game shows an ally's role: icon and name.
    • Before the horn โ€” above the enemy's portrait on the top bar, by name (a long name wraps by words). While the roles are visible, bars, ability, items and buyback under that enemy's portrait are not drawn. If the enemy has less than half health, bars are shown instead of the roles.
    • A single role is shown by name or by icon (the Display option); several roles are always shown as icons in a row.
    • After the horn the roles are not shown.
  • Fog time (General tab) โ€” for an enemy who disappeared into the fog, the seconds since they were last seen are shown instead of the last hit counter.

Popular settings Selecting a preset immediately rearranges the teams on all tabs, the item list, and the "Duration" and "Fog time" options:

  • Minimum โ€” no bars or runes; abilities, items, buyback and last hits for enemies only; items: Gem, Dust, Smoke and teleports; "Duration" and "Fog time" are turned off;
  • Medium โ€” bars, abilities, runes and buyback for enemies only, items and last hits for both teams, an extended item list; "Duration" is turned on, "Fog time" is turned off;
  • Maximum โ€” everything for both teams, all items, "Duration" is turned on.

"No choice" does not overwrite anything.

FAQโ€‹

No ability is visible under the portrait. The icon only appears while the selected ability is on cooldown. By default the ultimate is tracked. To choose others, click the diamond under the portrait or open the Abilities tab โ†’ Heroes โ†’ the hero.

I don't see the enemy TP. The teleport icon is shown while Alt is held, and only if TP Scroll / Boots of Travel are checked in the Items list.

Allied bars disappear when I hold Alt. This is intended: with Alt the game shows its own allied bars, and the script removes its own.

I don't see enemy roles. Roles are shown only in hero selection and before the horn, only for enemies, and only if the enemy queued for roles when searching for a game. Check that Other โ†’ Roles is on. Before the horn, an enemy below half health shows bars instead of roles.

Before the horn enemies have no bars or abilities under the portrait. While an enemy's roles are shown, everything else under their portrait is hidden. After the horn (or with Roles turned off) it comes back.

I selected "Popular settings" and my settings were reset. The preset overwrites the teams, the item list, "Duration" and "Fog time" โ€” and does so again every time you enter a game or reload scripts. To prevent this, leave "No choice" and set up the tabs manually.
