How Brewmaster and Lina perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Brewmaster and Lina win 50.49% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,504 matches.
Stacking Lina's magical burst on top of a Cinder Brew from Brewmaster looks like a clear path to victory. The reality of a teamfight is often messier. Brewmaster excels at diving deep and causing chaos with Primal Split, a strategy that doesn't create a stable front line for Lina to safely cast from. While the Brewlings are disruptive, they don't provide the hard, single-target lockdown she needs to reliably land Light Strike Array and her full combo. The two heroes want to fight, but in different ways and from different positions, making their combined impact feel inconsistent unless the coordination is perfect.
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.
