How Ancient Apparition and Meepo perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Ancient Apparition and Meepo win 53.76% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 186 matches.
You might think Meepo has enough burst damage on his own, but his real problem is enemies surviving the initial Poof combo with a clutch heal or lifesteal. Ancient Apparition completely shuts that down. Landing Ice Blast on Meepo's target means they simply can't recover. The kill is guaranteed, letting Meepo snowball much harder without having to overcommit his clones to chase down a low-health enemy. Earlier in the game, a simple Cold Feet can be all the setup Meepo needs to land his Earthbind and secure a kill he might have otherwise missed. It removes the guesswork from Meepo's ganks and ensures his high-tempo playstyle pays off.
