How Axe and Leshrac perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Axe and Leshrac win 52.36% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 571 matches.
Catching multiple heroes with Berserker's Call creates a solid opportunity for Leshrac. The taunt makes it much easier to land Split Earth on key targets and guarantees they stay inside his Pulse Nova for its full duration. This concentrated area-of-effect damage helps Axe survive the call and secure a Culling Blade reset. Having a durable initiator who can group enemies up is exactly what Leshrac needs to apply his damage effectively in mid-game teamfights. Axe provides the lockdown, and Leshrac provides the sustained damage to finish the job, giving them a clear game plan once Axe finds his Blink Dagger.
