In Dota 2 7.41e, Chen and Ringmaster win 50.00% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 28 matches.

Small sample: this pairing has only 28 ranked matches in the current window, so its win rate will swing more than deep-sample pairings as new games come in.

Why this works

Picking these two together seems like a great way to lock down the map, but it rarely plays out that way. Ringmaster wants to set up traps and pull enemies into a specific spot, while Chen’s army is more about running at people and creating chaos. The controlled setup from one hero clashes with the messy aggression of the other, and Ringmaster's hypnotic pull can even draw targets away from Chen's creeps. Without a core to actually kill the targets they catch, the whole plan falls apart. Maybe there's a specific timing we're missing, since this isn't a duo you see every day.
