How Bounty Hunter and Nyx Assassin perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bounty Hunter and Nyx Assassin win 50.88% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,504 matches.
Playing against two invisible heroes can be a nightmare, but Bounty Hunter and Nyx Assassin don't always create a strong partnership. Both heroes want to do the same thing: roam the map, find isolated targets, and secure kills from invisibility. While their combined burst can delete a fragile hero, they often end up competing for space and farm. This leaves your lanes vulnerable and can put your team on the back foot if the initial ganks don't pay off. Having two greedy, melee heroes in the support roles can be a liability. The success of this duo depends heavily on snowballing with early pickoffs, which isn't always reliable.
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.
