How Bloodseeker and Magnus perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker and Magnus win 49.90% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 525 matches.
Giving Bloodseeker an Empower seems like an easy win condition, but the combo can be awkward in practice. Magnus locks enemies down with Reverse Polarity, which denies Rupture the damage it gets from enemies trying to flee. The fight's success then falls on Bloodseeker’s raw attack damage being enough on its own. The damage from Bloodrage and Empower is still very real, and Skewering a lone target back is a simple setup for a kill. To be honest, we haven't seen this combination played much recently, so it's tough to call.
