How Brewmaster and Earthshaker perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Brewmaster and Earthshaker win 51.17% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,017 matches.
Facing a Blink from both these heroes can feel oppressive. Earthshaker's initiation with Fissure can create a perfect setup for Brewmaster to land his own control and begin a fight. This chain of stuns looks great on paper, especially when an Echo Slam is followed up by a Primal Split to clean up. The trouble comes from their overlapping roles and potentially conflicting spells. Both heroes want to be the primary initiator, which can lead to redundancy. A poorly placed Fissure might block Brewmaster's spirits, or the chaos from Primal Split can scatter enemies that Earthshaker was trying to group for his ultimate. Success depends heavily on perfect timing and coordination.
