Kez Synergies (7.41e)

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

Kez's mobility lets him follow up any engage and burst an isolated target — he wants lockdown to pin enemies and a front line to dive behind. He pairs best with control and durable cores: Spectre and Wraith King capitalize on the targets he chunks, while Tidehunter provides the AoE lock that lets him commit. Give Kez reliable disable and his stance-swap burst deletes whoever gets caught.
