How Arc Warden and Night Stalker perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Arc Warden and Night Stalker win 51.14% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 395 matches.
Thinking these two play separate games is a common mistake. In reality, Night Stalker's constant aggression is what gives Arc Warden the space he needs to farm up. Once the first night hits, Night Stalker running at heroes forces reactions and keeps enemies busy. This lets Arc Warden safely push lanes or jungle with his Tempest Double. A good Crippling Fear also sets up an easy kill for the clone's Flux and Spark Wraiths. It's not a common pairing, so it's tough to know how it'll feel in your own games.
