Best heroes to pair with Medusa in Dota 2 7.41e, and the worst pairings, ranked by team win rate over ranked matches.
Medusa needs to survive to the late game and then win one big Stone Gaze fight — she wants protection early and AoE follow-up late. She pairs best with push/utility and front line: Techies and Lycan give her the early map control she lacks, while Vengeful Spirit and Axe provide a save plus the lockdown to land Stone Gaze. Give Medusa a team that protects her farm and clumps the enemy for her ult, and she's an unkillable win condition.
