How Chaos Knight and Wraith King perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Chaos Knight and Wraith King win 64.29% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 420 matches.
Putting two frontline strength carries on the same team can feel greedy, but this pairing creates a major target-priority problem for the enemy. They have to choose between focusing the Wraith King, who has Reincarnation and comes back for a second round, or the Chaos Knight, who can instantly create a swarm of Phantasm illusions. If they commit spells to burst one hero, the other is left free to attack their backline. The combination of Chaos Bolt and Wraithfire Blast also provides a long, simple stun chain to delete a key target before a fight properly starts. Enemies are simply overwhelmed by two durable, high-damage threats that are both difficult to kill for different reasons.
