How Brewmaster and Lich perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Brewmaster and Lich win 53.62% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,212 matches.
Setting up a good Chain Frost can be a little easier with a Brewmaster on your team. When Brewmaster uses Primal Split, his Earth spirit can stun a target, and the general chaos of three spirits running around helps keep enemies from spreading out. This gives Lich a better window for his ultimate to bounce multiple times. Outside of that specific interaction, Lich’s Frost Shield on a durable Brewmaster makes him even tougher for right-clickers to bring down in the early game. The synergy is very focused on their ultimates, though. If those long-cooldown spells are mistimed or played around, their combined impact feels much less coordinated and they don't offer much else for each other.
