How Crystal Maiden and Dark Seer perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41f, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Crystal Maiden and Dark Seer win 50.98% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 28,597 matches.
Getting pulled together by a Vacuum only to see Crystal Maiden start her ultimate is a familiar sight. The setup is obvious: Dark Seer clumps the enemy team, and she follows up with Freezing Field. This combo looks scary, but in practice, everyone knows to interrupt the channel immediately. Crystal Maiden is fragile and often dies before her spell can do significant work, making the play very high-risk. While Dark Seer’s Surge is certainly helpful for letting her position or escape, it doesn’t solve her fundamental vulnerability during teamfights. The potential for a big play exists, but its unreliability keeps their combined effectiveness from being anything special.
