Axe Synergies (7.41e)

Best heroes to pair with Axe in Dota 2 7.41e, and the worst pairings, ranked by team win rate over ranked matches.

Axe is the setup half of countless combos — Berserker's Call hands a stationary, clumped enemy team to a follow-up carry. He's strongest next to AoE and execute partners: Spectre Haunts onto his Call for a team wipe, while Lifestealer and Wraith King clean up everything pinned in place. Phantom Lancer loves the same dynamic — Call buys his illusions free hits. In short, give Axe a carry or AoE nuker who can cash in the brief window he creates.
