How Alchemist and Storm Spirit perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Alchemist and Storm Spirit win 35.40% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 322 matches.
Farming up an Aghanim's Scepter for Storm Spirit is a huge investment that rarely pays off. Both of these heroes are incredibly resource-dependent, needing a ton of gold and experience to hit their peaks. Alchemist wants to flash-farm the map to get ahead on items, and Storm Spirit needs his own core items and levels to be a mobile threat. When both cores are trying to do the same thing, the map runs out of farm. This lineup often lacks the early aggression needed to make space, meaning both can get shut down. The whole game plan relies on the enemy letting them farm, which is rarely a winning bet.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
