How Anti-Mage and Sven perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Anti-Mage and Sven win 48.32% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,280 matches.
Putting two of the game's most farm-dependent carries on one team often creates a strategic problem. Both Sven and Anti-Mage want to be the primary core, occupying the safest lanes and jungle camps to build their items. This typically forces one hero into a riskier position or simply slows down the entire team's timing. While Sven's Storm Hammer can set up a good Mana Void, and Warcry provides some welcome survivability, these small interactions rarely make up for the core issue. The team composition is often too greedy, leaving the other three heroes to defend for an extended period while waiting for two carries to come online and take over the map.
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.
