How Chaos Knight and Pangolier perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Chaos Knight and Pangolier win 48.42% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,299 matches.
Getting caught by a Chaos Bolt feels like a death sentence, but that can change if Pangolier shows up. Both of these heroes want to be aggressive initiators, but their goals often conflict. Chaos Knight uses Reality Rift to isolate one enemy and hold them in place for his illusions to demolish. Pangolier, on the other hand, wants to disrupt the entire enemy team with Rolling Thunder, knocking people everywhere. This frequently leads to Pangolier accidentally saving the exact target Chaos Knight is trying to burst down. While they can occasionally set each other up, their core teamfight spells tend to work against one another, making their combined impact a little awkward.
