How Arc Warden and Legion Commander perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Arc Warden and Legion Commander win 57.01% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 849 matches.
Winning a Duel often comes down to a simple trade of attacks, and Arc Warden directly tips that fight in Legion Commander's favor. Placing a Magnetic Field on the Duel provides a massive attack speed bonus, letting Legion Commander overwhelm her target before they can react. The Tempest Double makes this even stronger, applying a separate Flux to slow the enemy or setting up a second Field for the rest of the team to fight around. Adding a few pre-placed Spark Wraiths to the initiation spot can also provide enough upfront burst to secure a close fight.
The result is a powerful tempo-based strategy. Legion Commander can hunt for early Duels with Arc Warden's global assistance, creating space and map control with each victory. This secured territory is exactly what Arc Warden needs to farm his core items safely. As the game progresses, opponents are forced to group up to avoid getting picked off, but this defensive posture leaves them exposed to Arc Warden's Tempest Double split-pushing lanes. They have to choose between containing two heroes who can be anywhere on the map.
