How Brewmaster and Ringmaster perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Brewmaster and Ringmaster win 50.93% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,292 matches.
Facing a combo from this duo can be frustrating. Ringmaster can use his tricks to pull an enemy hero directly into range for Brewmaster’s Cinder Brew and clap, creating a simple but effective lockdown chain. During Primal Split, Ringmaster's control can also help hold targets in place for the individual spirits to do their work. The problem is that both heroes are primarily focused on disruption and setup. Their abilities can feel redundant if used at the same time, and they both rely on other cores to bring the necessary damage to secure kills. A team with both Brewmaster and Ringmaster might have excellent control, but if the other allies can't convert that into kills, the advantage quickly disappears.
