How Broodmother and Chaos Knight perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Broodmother and Chaos Knight win 48.96% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,201 matches.
Drafting both of these heroes puts a lot of pressure on the early game to go perfectly. Broodmother wants to dominate a section of the map with her webs, farming the enemy territory and pushing towers. Meanwhile, Chaos Knight is also a physical damage core who wants to find farm and get pickoffs with Reality Rift. The main problem is that your team’s damage becomes almost entirely physical. An enemy that simply buys more armor can effectively counter both of you at the same time. The pairing depends on one of you getting a huge lead to overwhelm opponents before they can react, and if that doesn't happen, your strategies don't combine well.
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.
