How Broodmother and Ember Spirit perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Broodmother and Ember Spirit win 45.35% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 688 matches.
Pushing two different lanes at once often leaves your team feeling disconnected. Broodmother wants to build a nest and methodically take over one part of the map with her spiderlings, creating intense, localized pressure. Ember Spirit is also a tempo core who wants to farm aggressively and be an active threat, but his mobile, hit-and-run style doesn't mesh with Brood's siege. He lacks the lockdown to help her secure kills in her webs, and she can't easily join his fights across the map. They end up competing for farm and forcing the team to play two separate games at once, which rarely works out well against a coordinated opponent.
