Why this works

Creating an unkillable frontline with both Brewmaster and Timbersaw sounds like a solid plan, but they often end up working against each other. Both heroes want to occupy the same space on the map, farm the same dangerous areas, and come online around the same time. This competition for resources can leave one of them underleveled and ineffective, delaying crucial timings. Their damage profiles are also very similar, focusing heavily on magic. This makes it straightforward for the enemy team to itemize with magic resistance and neutralize both cores at once. The lineup is left with two heroes doing the same job and missing the physical damage or hard control needed to win fights.
