A once in a lifetime occurrence has stunned onlookers and the Dota community alike today.

The phenomenon occurred in the US East server, where a mid-player in the crusader bracket lost the roll for mid and happily went on to play hard support without griefing.

The occurrence, which has players, experts and pros baffled, happened this afternoon in a standard ranked game.

As the players loaded into the game, three of the players instantly selected the mid lane, as is standard in the Crusader bracket.

One player, obviously not a gambler, played the sneaky move of quickly moving his icon to the safe lane and highlighting Juggernaut at the sight of two others vying for the coveted mid spot.

The two remaining players duked it out with a roll, which is the normal etiquette for settling all Dota related disputes.

In a highly unlikely event on its own, one of the players rolled a maximum 100, and the other 99.

However, a statistician said what happened next was a much rarer occurrence.

The player who rolled 99 happily congratulated the winner and moved his icon to the safe lane position, selecting Crystal Maiden as his hero.

“I expected him to try and play a support Invoker or throw the game,” one of the players said to an Aimbot Media reporter. “He even bought wards and pulled correctly.”

The team went on to win the game with solid calls and friendly communication.

There are calls in the community to crowdfund a trip to TI10 for the player, who is being hailed a hero.
