How Brewmaster and Phantom Assassin perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Brewmaster and Phantom Assassin win 50.80% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,695 matches.
Using Primal Split to cause chaos can give Phantom Assassin a window to work. The stuns and cyclones from Brewmaster’s spirits will often hold a key enemy in place long enough for PA to jump in with Phantom Strike and get a kill. This is particularly helpful before she gets her Black King Bar. Brewmaster’s ultimate also draws a ton of focus, which creates space for Phantom Assassin to find her preferred targets on the edge of the fight. The synergy is conditional, though. It really depends on a good split to provide the setup, and their timings can sometimes be out of sync if PA is still trying to farm when Brewmaster wants to fight.
