How Bloodseeker and Ember Spirit perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker and Ember Spirit win 50.60% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 249 matches.
Getting low on health against this lineup is a nightmare. Ember Spirit is great at applying constant pressure with Sleight of Fist, which is all it takes to get Bloodseeker’s Thirst going on multiple enemies. Once they're marked, Bloodseeker has vision and speed, setting up easy kills for an Ember Spirit Remnant. A Ruptured target is especially vulnerable, as they are forced to stand still and get caught by Searing Chains. This combo hasn't been too common lately, so it's hard to say how well it holds up.
