How Chaos Knight and Dazzle perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Chaos Knight and Dazzle win 51.71% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,926 matches.
Trying to burst down a Chaos Knight before Phantasm comes out is already a challenge, and Dazzle's Shallow Grave can make it feel impossible. That extra time guarantees Chaos Knight can Reality Rift onto a target and get his full illusion combo off. The problem is what happens next. Once that one hero is dead, the pair doesn't have a great answer for the rest of the enemy team. Both heroes excel at single-target pressure but lack the area damage to clean up a big fight. This makes the lane effective for securing pickoffs, but it can struggle if the enemy team groups up and survives the initial assault.
