In Dota 2 7.41f, Alchemist and Nature's Prophet win 41.30% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 13,329 matches.
Facing this lineup often feels like you have free reign over the map. Alchemist and Nature's Prophet are two of the greediest heroes in the game, and they fundamentally compete for the same resources. Alchemist needs his team to secure safe areas for him to farm and accelerate his item progression. Nature's Prophet, however, typically uses his global presence from Teleportation to take over lanes and enemy jungle camps for his own net worth. This internal conflict for farm leaves the team stretched thin.
The result is a draft that can't fight effectively in the mid-game. When the enemy team groups up to push, Nature's Prophet is often on the other side of the map trying to trade a tower, leaving Alchemist vulnerable before he hits his critical item timings. This forces their team into constant four-versus-five engagements or gives up objectives for free. The game can snowball out of control long before either of these farming cores is actually ready to contribute.
