How Beastmaster and Ringmaster perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Beastmaster and Ringmaster win 44.45% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,144 matches.
Choosing both Beastmaster and Ringmaster often forces your draft into a strategic bind. Beastmaster’s whole plan revolves around map pressure with his summons; he wants to push out lanes and take towers while his hawk provides vision to stay safe. He creates space by threatening buildings. Ringmaster, by contrast, is a hero-control specialist who wants to set up kills with his traps and lockdown. The problem is that these game plans don't feed into each other well. You end up with one hero trying to siege objectives and another trying to start a teamfight, pulling the team's focus in two different directions and being ineffective at both.
