Nyx Assassin Synergies (7.41e)
Best heroes to pair with Nyx Assassin in Dota 2 7.41e, and the worst pairings, ranked by team win rate over ranked matches.
Nyx Assassin picks off squishy targets with Vendetta and bursts casters with Impale + Mana Burn — he wants follow-up that punishes the pick. He pairs best with snowball cores and lockdown: Spectre and Wraith King convert his ambushes into a man-advantage, while Tidehunter locks the enemy he bursts. Give Nyx a kill-hungry team and his Vendetta pickoffs strangle the enemy's casters and supports.
