How Bloodseeker and Kez perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker and Kez win 48.21% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 224 matches.
Putting these two carries in the same draft can feel redundant. Bloodseeker wants to chase down bleeding targets with Thirst, getting stronger as enemies get weaker and try to escape. Kez, however, prefers a more classic duel, using his weapon stances and parries to outplay an opponent committed to fighting him. Their ideal fights don't overlap well, as a Ruptured enemy that stands still is a wasted opportunity for Bloodseeker’s chase. Admittedly, we haven't seen this pairing much lately, so things could have shifted. They feel like two solo heroes occupying the same space.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
