How Anti-Mage and Tinker perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Anti-Mage and Tinker win 45.50% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,011 matches.
Picking both of these heroes creates a massive internal conflict over map resources. Both Anti-Mage and Tinker are incredibly farm-hungry and need to occupy the enemy's side of the map to safely accelerate their net worth. The problem is, they want the exact same farm. Tinker pushes out lanes from a distance to build up his gold, and those are the very same creep waves Anti-Mage wants to Blink to and clear for himself. They end up starving each other, making it impossible for both to hit their crucial item timings at a reasonable pace.
This resource competition leads to a very passive team composition that struggles to react to aggression. The team effectively plays with two heroes who want to avoid fighting for most of the early and mid-game, forcing the other three players to constantly defend and give up objectives. While the enemy team groups up to pressure towers, Anti-Mage is trying to find a safe lane to farm and Tinker is trying to do the same from the trees. The draft simply lacks the tools to create space or fight back before the game gets out of hand.
