Why this works
Pulling an enemy with Flaming Lasso relies on a clear path, but Keeper of the Light can complicate this. The mana from Chakra Magic is certainly useful for a spell-heavy hero like Batrider, letting him stack Napalm more freely. In a teamfight, however, their abilities often work against each other. A poorly timed Blinding Light can knock the Lasso target away from the team, completely negating the initiation. The same knockback can also ruin a Firefly run by pushing other enemies into Batrider. Because their core spells clash so easily, the benefit of the extra mana doesn't consistently translate into a clear advantage, making the combination feel disjointed.
