How Batrider and Monkey King perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Batrider and Monkey King win 36.90% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 84 matches.
Picking these two heroes together often feels like choosing between two different game plans. Batrider's main job is to find a key target and drag them away with Flaming Lasso. This directly conflicts with Monkey King, who wants enemies to be grouped up and stuck inside his Wukong's Command. Too often, Batrider will successfully pull an enemy, but he's pulling them away from the very area Monkey King is trying to control and damage. This lack of coordination means one of the heroes isn't getting to do their job correctly. The core fight plans of Batrider and Monkey King simply work against each other, leading to awkward engagements.
