Shadow Demon Synergies (7.41)

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

Shadow Demon's Disruption is both a save and a damage-amp setup (the illusions plus Soul Catcher), and he enables push strategies. He pairs best with summon/push and illusion cores: Chen (58.3%) leverages his early tempo for a creep-push snowball, while Lycan (53.2%) and Dark Seer (52.9%) turn his control into a siege. Give Shadow Demon a push-oriented core and his Disruption setup plus Soul Catcher amp snowballs the early game.
