10. LIghT-DiaMonD, Lion, 57 kills

Lion is an infinite scaling hero that gets stronger the more kills he gets with his ultimate, Finger of Death. Each kill increases its damage by 40 (60 with talent and an additional 70 HP per kill increase with another talent) and an Aghanim’s Scepter upgrade increases its base damage by 950 and turns it into an AOE spell with a 20-second cooldown. This can easily clear out mega creeps and any unsuspecting enemies with no vision from fog. No place is safe from the hungry Lion.
9. KAVABAT, Pudge, 75 kills

Pudge is another hero that scales infinitely the more kills or assists he gets. His passive gives me extra hp, extra damage, and the ability to get even more kills as the game progresses. This is why in a 160-minute game, it becomes extremely hard to deal with this beast of a hero as he becomes a huge unkillable threat. Even when against mega creeps, it becomes easy for the team with a Pudge ((THAT HAS 13000 HP)) to hold and win the game.
8. Ddz, Tinker, 92 kills

If you don’t catch Tinker or have no way of catching him, he will dominate the game and trash any hero before they can press their BKB. You get infinite amounts of magic damage and lockdown (with Scythe of Vyse) and the enemies can only hope to get off a save or a counterplay before Tinker’s target is burst down. Ddz shows a true display of skill in this 92-kill tinker game and dominates the enemy team, slip and sliding with every kill and avoiding getting caught.
7. GoshA PETROV, Slark, 273 kills

Think like a shark with Slark, smell blood in the water, and go in for the kill. Slark thrives in a long-drawn-out game where he can build up essence shift stacks and gain stacks from kills. After getting ganked again and again and again in the lane, this slark finally got back at his opponent by fountain farming them and not allowing them to go out the base.
6. Ana, Gyrocopter, 186 kills

The main reason the fountain was reworked was Ana fountain farming his enemies and gaining a total of 186 kills. All you need is a butterfly, solar crest, and a satanic for backup. Valve had to give the fountain true strike to stop this from happening in every game. Ana gets back at the enemy trash-talker who looks down on the two-time TI champ and makes them shut up and eat their own words.
5. Radiant Team, 229 kills

Everybody hates Techies. A game that was supposed to be over 3 hours ago is now still going on and by the time the game has finished, your hypothetical son has now graduated college and started his own family, and you’re still trying to avoid Techies mines. But you know what that means, a game full of death and lots and lots and lots of it.
4. Radiant Team, 1000 kills

A game that shows why Dota 2 should have a surrender button. Two players of Dire have already DC’ed and 3 players left decided to press on. They try so hard but a big fat scary pudge will continuously hunt them until the throne explodes. As heartbreaking as it is to see, the radiant was able to reach more than 1000 kills that the kill counter started bugging out as it couldn’t display the numbers anymore. But seriously Valve, please consider adding a surrender feature. We just want to move on to the next game sometimes.
3. Mirachle, Juggernaut, 28 kills

Miracle is known to be a very strong player and to this day, his accomplishments will never be forgotten. In a valve tournament, he was able to get 28 kills in a game despite being behind and the enemy team having two saving supports. His dominant juggernaut game leads them to victory with the highest net worth even against a strong farming mid Alchemist.
2. Raven, Spectre, 33 kills
Watch him own: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VC-e8OR9Qyk
Spectre is not a hero you expect to dominate the early game with. She is a weak laner with very low damage and takes time to build up farm. However, Raven makes it look easy with 7 kills, 0 deaths, and an ultra-kill within 17 minutes of the game. In the end he leads his team to victory with 33 kills and the victory, the highest recorded number of kills in any valve tournament. You know youre trashing your enemy when your kills are ahead by two digits, but when your carry has kills more than the total number of kills of the enemy team, you know they’ve received the harsh message.
1. Sumail, Tiny, 31 kills

Sumail’s Tiny still holds the most kills in the grandest stage of Dota Tournaments. Absolutely wrecking OG, the defending champions, apart with a total of 31 kills. The King’s dominance in the mid lane is highlighted in this game and shows why Sumail is the youngest ever to win TI. They may have lost the game, but Sumail’s legend will continue to live on.
