How Abaddon and Juggernaut perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Abaddon and Juggernaut win 52.47% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 7,442 matches.
Using Aphotic Shield to dispel a stun on Juggernaut can be the difference between him getting a full Blade Fury off or dying before it starts. This allows Juggernaut to play more aggressively in the lane and early fights, knowing he has a way to break free from initial lockdown. If the enemy team does manage to commit everything on him, Abaddon’s Borrowed Time provides a second layer of defense, making Juggernaut a durable front-line threat who is tricky to burst down quickly. The shield's absorption is a decent bonus during the spin.
However, the pairing has some redundant aspects. Once Juggernaut successfully activates Blade Fury, he's already spell immune, so the dispel from Aphotic Shield offers no further benefit during that time. Good opponents will simply back off and wait out the spin. Later in the game, when Juggernaut is relying on Omnislash, he’s invulnerable and doesn't need Abaddon's protection. While Abaddon can certainly save Juggernaut from a mistake, the two heroes don't consistently amplify each other's offensive plans, leading to a fairly neutral partnership.
