How Underlord and Riki perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41f, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Underlord and Riki win 52.34% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 17,999 matches.
Controlling teamfights becomes straightforward with this pairing. Underlord’s Pit of Malice locks enemies down in a perfect spot for Firestorm, but more importantly, it holds them still for Riki. He can jump in and use Tricks of the Trade on multiple rooted targets, guaranteeing his damage finds its mark. Adding a Smoke Screen on top of the Pit makes it nearly impossible for enemies to cast spells or fight back effectively. This layered control and damage is exceptionally difficult to survive.
The duo's map pressure is relentless. Underlord constantly shoves lanes, forcing enemies to rotate and defend their towers. When they show up, Riki is either already lurking or can join the fight instantly with Fiend's Gate. A successful gank quickly turns into a secured objective. This forces the enemy team to play reactively and grouped, which slows their farm and gives your team control over the pace of the game. If they split up, Riki and Underlord can punish them easily.
