How Bane and Morphling perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bane and Morphling win 46.08% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,372 matches.
Setting up a kill with Fiend's Grip seems like a great way for Morphling to unload his full burst. The problem is that both heroes commit their most important spells to killing a single target. If the enemy team has a Force Staff, a Glimmer Cape, or any stun to break Bane's channel, the whole gank fails and leaves you both with long cooldowns. Morphling often plays better with supports who can create broader chaos in a teamfight or offer more defensive saves for when he gets focused. While this duo is strong at securing pickoffs on isolated enemies, it creates a very predictable, one-dimensional game plan that can struggle against teams who know how to play around it.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
