It's a thing people have been doing for a while. Usually in alphabetical order too. It's nice that the game finally gives some reward for it.

Even without doing this challenge, dota 2 puts a pretty big emphasis on the players' heroes pick since stuff like counterpicks and early/mid/late game viability (both for individual positions and for the whole teams) are much more impactful compared to LoL, so it's a thing that someone who plays a lot would end up (mostly) completing "naturally" over time.

I stopped playing about 3 years ago though so maybe my infos about the metagame are out of date
