Lifestealer Synergies (7.41f)

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

Lifestealer's Infest is one of the best initiation tools in the game — he hides inside a tanky ally, then bursts out onto the enemy backline. He pairs best with front-line divers and lockdown: Axe is the iconic combo (Infest into a Blink-Call for a guaranteed gank), while Dawnbreaker and Tidehunter carry him into the fight and lock the enemy down. Phoenix provides AoE while he chews through the front line. Give Lifestealer a durable initiator to Infest and he becomes an unkillable surprise attacker.
