How Clinkz and Io perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Clinkz and Io win 49.09% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,634 matches.
Trying to secure kills in the laning stage is the first hurdle for this duo. Without a reliable stun between them, Clinkz and Io can struggle to pin down targets for a kill. Later on, Io’s Overcharge and Tether provide great survivability, making Clinkz much harder to burst down as he channels Burning Barrage. The problem is that Clinkz still needs someone else on the team to provide the initial lockdown for him to unload his damage. While Relocate ganks with an invisible Clinkz are a threat, the combo often feels a bit awkward. Clinkz wants to scout and find pick-offs alone, which doesn't always align with Io wanting to stay tethered to a core.
