Ancient Apparition Synergies (7.41f)
Best heroes to pair with Ancient Apparition in Dota 2 7.41f, and the worst pairings, ranked by team win rate over ranked matches.
Ancient Apparition's Ice Blast anti-heal + global execute pairs with any carry who wants to close out wounded enemies — he removes their ability to heal back up. He synergizes best with snowball hard-carries: Spectre and Wraith King finish whatever AA chills and caps, while Meepo bursts the no-heal targets. Give AA a kill-hungry core and his anti-heal turns every chunked enemy into a dead one.
