How Bloodseeker and Legion Commander perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker and Legion Commander win 54.72% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 6,473 matches.
Focusing on Rupture during a Duel is a common mistake; the target can't move anyway. The real strength comes from combining Bloodrage and Thirst with Legion Commander's ultimate. Casting Bloodrage on an enemy caught in a Duel makes them take amplified damage from everyone, making the fight end much faster. As their health drops, Bloodseeker gets a massive speed and attack boost from Thirst, letting him sprint across the map to join the fray and secure the kill. A well-placed Blood Rite can also silence anyone nearby who might try to save the Duel target.
This pairing creates intense pressure during the mid-game. Legion Commander doesn't need Bloodseeker to be right next to her to initiate. She can find a pickoff, start the Duel, and count on a sped-up Bloodseeker arriving moments later to clean up. This forces opponents to play defensively and grouped up, as any hero caught alone is a free damage bonus for LC. The enemy team has to try and burst Legion Commander before Bloodseeker arrives, or have enough disables to control both heroes as they converge on a single target.
