Game modes

Captain's Mode
Captain's Mode is an alternate gamemode in Dota 2. Unlike All-Pick, Captain's Mode selects one Captain on either team. The Captains then pick or ban Heroes in order to fill their team's composition. Captain's Mode is typically used in tournaments to add a layer of strategy and fairness to team composition.

The pick and ban order for Radiant and Dire is: BAN -> BAN -> BAN -> BAN -> PICK -> PICK -> PICK -> PICK -> PICK -> PICK -> BAN -> BAN -> BAN -> BAN -> PICK -> PICK -> PICK -> PICK
