How Bane and Outworld Destroyer perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bane and Outworld Destroyer win 50.04% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,568 matches.
Setting up a kill with Nightmare often feels clumsy with an Outworld Destroyer on the team. A well-placed Sanity's Eclipse will instantly break the sleep, wasting the setup and potentially letting the target escape. While Bane's Fiend's Grip does provide a long, reliable stun for OD to unload Arcane Orbs, their overall plans can feel redundant. Both heroes excel at isolating and bursting down a single enemy, but they don't do much to cover each other's weaknesses, like a lack of wave clear. This shared focus on one target can leave the team vulnerable to split-pushing or drafts with multiple durable cores, making the pairing less flexible than it might seem.
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.
