How Axe and Treant Protector perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Axe and Treant Protector win 49.95% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,007 matches.
Trying to burst down Axe after he blinks in often feels like the right play, but that plan tends to fall apart with a Treant Protector on his team. Living Armor provides a huge amount of durability while Axe has enemies locked down with Berserker's Call, frequently letting him survive what should be lethal damage. This forces the enemy to overcommit just to bring him down. For any enemies not caught by the initial call, Treant can use Overgrowth to stop them from kiting or turning the fight around. It gives Axe a much larger margin for error on his initiations and makes him significantly harder to punish.
