How Chaos Knight and Clockwerk perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Chaos Knight and Clockwerk win 52.11% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,821 matches.
Catching a key hero with Hookshot gives Chaos Knight an obvious target for his own lockdown. Once an enemy is isolated inside Cogs, Chaos Knight can Reality Rift them and overwhelm them with illusions. Both heroes excel at blowing up a single target, so their goals are aligned. The problem is that Clockwerk's Cogs can sometimes get in the way of a melee hero, blocking Chaos Knight or his illusions from connecting with the trapped enemy. This can make the gank awkward or even fail completely if the timing is off. The success of this lane really depends on careful positioning, as their abilities can occasionally work against each other.
