How Centaur Warrunner and Shadow Demon perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Centaur Warrunner and Shadow Demon win 46.65% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,563 matches.
Facing this pair can feel less threatening than it should. Shadow Demon's Disruption is a powerful setup, but it makes the target immune while Centaur Warrunner wants to land his instant burst from Hoof Stomp and Double Edge. This often forces an awkward pause where Centaur has to wait for the banish to end, giving the enemy team time to reposition or prepare a counter-save. While Stampede can help Shadow Demon get into position, the core initiation spells don't align perfectly. Centaur wants to run in and deliver his damage immediately, while Shadow Demon's spells involve more delay and control, leading to a slight clash in their timing and goals during a gank.
