How Bloodseeker and Clinkz perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker and Clinkz win 51.75% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,398 matches.
Seeing a low-health hero revealed by Thirst can feel like a green light for Clinkz to get an easy kill, but the execution is often clumsy. The core issue is that neither hero provides the hard lockdown the other really wants to secure a gank. Bloodseeker’s Blood Rite is a delayed silence that won't hold someone in place for Clinkz to unload his full damage. On the other side, Clinkz brings no stun to help Bloodseeker land a Rupture combo or stick to a slippery target. They function as two independent damage dealers who happen to be good at chasing the same targets, but they don't enable each other very well.
