Topson is preparing a surprise for his opponents by practicing an unexpected hero

Topias "Topson" Taavitsainen, the midlaner for Tundra Esports, has started training a new hero for the midlane - Omniknight, following the release of patch 7.35d. The world champion has played 8 matches with this hero.

This information is based on data from Dota2ProTracker.

In just eight days, he has played 8 matches with Omniknight, losing only one of them. Topson's win rate on this hero is an impressive 87.5%. In his build, the pro player uses Phylactery and Blink Dagger, which enhances the hero's effectiveness.

It is noteworthy that this is an unexpected choice for the midlane, as Omniknight is typically played in the offlane. This hero is often chosen by supports. It's possible that Topson is preparing a unique build to surprise opponents in official matches for Tundra Esports.

Recall that earlier, Topson amazed viewers by almost single-handedly destroying Entity base during the DreamLeague Season 23 qualifiers.
