How Arc Warden and Tusk perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Arc Warden and Tusk win 50.39% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,427 matches.
Feeling a Snowball crash into your lane sets up an expectation of heavy follow-up damage. However, Arc Warden has some trouble delivering on that expectation. Tusk's job is to create chaos and start a messy, mobile fight, but Arc Warden is at his best when playing around his static Magnetic Field. He doesn't want to be pulled into the fray and prefers to control a specific area. While Arc can contribute damage with his double's spells from afar, he lacks the immediate burst or mobility to properly capitalize on a Tusk initiation. Their game plans often pull in opposite directions, leading to disjointed teamfights.
