How Underlord and Chaos Knight perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Underlord and Chaos Knight win 50.65% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,931 matches.
Trying to gank with a Chaos Knight from across the map becomes a real possibility. Underlord’s Fiend's Gate can drop a full Phantasm on top of an unsuspecting enemy, setting up an easy kill. The classic follow-up is Chaos Knight using Reality Rift to pull someone in, right as Underlord casts Pit of Malice to root them for the illusions. This simple lockdown combo is effective at picking off key targets before a fight even starts. Later on, Atrophy Aura also helps CK's illusions survive teamfights a bit longer by weakening the physical damage of anyone trying to clear them out, giving Chaos Knight a slightly better window to operate.
