How Alchemist and Undying perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Alchemist and Undying win 49.11% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 4,899 matches.
Forcing the enemy to choose between bad options is how this pairing can get ahead. Undying is a menace in the early game, creating constant pressure with Decay and Tombstone. This forces the other team to react to him, pulling attention and rotations away from wherever Alchemist is farming. It creates the space Alchemist needs to accelerate his farm with Greevil's Greed. When they do group up, Undying's Flesh Golem amplifies the physical damage Alchemist deals, and Acid Spray helps the zombies from Tombstone take down objectives and heroes.
The typical game plan involves Undying leading the charge early, fighting and pushing to control the map's tempo. The goal is to build a lead or at least keep the enemy busy while Alchemist gets his core items. Once Alchemist is online, he joins the fights with a significant net worth advantage. This strategy is vulnerable, however. A coordinated enemy team may ignore Undying’s provocations and focus entirely on finding and repeatedly killing Alchemist, shutting down the engine of the strategy before he can get rolling.
