How Bloodseeker and Keeper of the Light perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker and Keeper of the Light win 50.31% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,260 matches.
Finding enough mana for repeated Rupture ganks can be Bloodseeker's main limitation, and Keeper of the Light solves that directly. Chakra Magic keeps Bloodseeker topped off, letting him apply pressure across the map much earlier and more frequently than he normally could. Pushing out lanes with Illuminate also helps reveal low-health enemies for Thirst, giving Bloodseeker global presence and speed. The partnership's main weakness is a lack of reliable lockdown. Outside of a well-placed Bloodrite, there's no hard stun to hold a target down. A slippery hero can often teleport out or survive the duration of Rupture, making this duo dependent on their other teammates to truly secure kills.
