How Broodmother and Keeper of the Light perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Broodmother and Keeper of the Light win 52.62% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,332 matches.
Taking over the map with this pair can feel disjointed. Broodmother wants to establish a network with Spin Web and dominate one specific zone, farming heroes and the enemy jungle. Keeper of the Light, however, is often focused on clearing waves across the map with Illuminate to apply pressure or defend towers. This can pull the game in two different directions at once. While Chakra Magic offers welcome mana for Broodmother's constant spider production, Keeper’s other spells can be disruptive. Blinding Light, for instance, can knock an enemy hero away from Brood's spiderlings, accidentally saving them from being surrounded. The two heroes simply operate on different tempos, making it difficult to build momentum together.
