How Axe and Centaur Warrunner perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Axe and Centaur Warrunner win 47.47% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 297 matches.
Facing two big initiators feels dangerous, but the threat often falls flat. Both Axe and Centaur Warrunner want to be the one with the first Blink Dagger, jumping in to start the fight. This creates a resource problem, as they need similar farm priority to hit their timings. Once a fight breaks out, their control can overlap poorly. An enemy caught by Berserker's Call is already locked down, making Centaur's Hoof Stomp feel redundant. While Stampede can help Axe find a good position, the heroes don't truly build on each other's kits beyond that initial gap close. They're two heroes trying to do the same job, which can leave your team's draft feeling one-dimensional and predictable.
