How Bounty Hunter and Ringmaster perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bounty Hunter and Ringmaster win 50.96% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,074 matches.
Pairing these two together is a bet on coordinated pickoffs across the map. Ringmaster’s hypnotic pull can certainly set up an easy kill for Bounty Hunter, creating a clear target to emerge on from Shadow Walk. A prior Track makes finding that initial pickoff even simpler. The weakness is what happens after that initial burst. If the target doesn't die instantly, neither hero offers the follow-up damage or control needed to finish the job, and both can be quite fragile if an enemy teleports in to help. This makes the combo dependent on perfect execution, leaving little room for error and feeling very hit-or-miss.
