How Bloodseeker and Silencer perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker and Silencer win 54.15% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 602 matches.
Trying to teleport out after getting hit by Rupture is a common mistake. That plan completely falls apart when Silencer is on Bloodseeker’s team, because you have to assume Global Silence is coming next. This combination is devastating for pickoffs. The target can't use mobility spells, defensive items, or a TP scroll, forcing them to either stand still and get run down or take massive damage from moving. Bloodseeker gets a free kill on a helpless hero. Even outside of their ultimates, Blood Rite’s area-denial silence makes it very difficult to avoid Silencer’s own spells, locking down enemies for easy kills and giving your team control of the fight.
