How Anti-Mage and Winter Wyvern perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Anti-Mage and Winter Wyvern win 52.62% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 6,841 matches.
Saving an overextended Anti-Mage is the main point of value here. If he blinks in and gets caught by a silence or root, a well-timed Cold Embrace from Winter Wyvern can keep him alive through the physical damage until he can escape. Winter's Curse can also be used defensively to halt a gank, or offensively to hold one enemy in place for Anti-Mage to focus down. The rest of their kits don't have much overlap, though. Anti-Mage is a single-target assassin, so he doesn't get much extra value from the other enemies being clumped and attacking the Cursed target.
The success of this duo often depends on surviving the mid-game. Winter Wyvern is strongest then, able to control fights and slow the enemy's push. During this same window, Anti-Mage is usually off the map, farming his core items and avoiding conflict. If Wyvern and the rest of the team can successfully create enough space and stall the game, they can deliver a farmed Anti-Mage to the late game. If they fall behind, Anti-Mage won't have the time he needs to come online and impact the map.
