How Crystal Maiden and Luna perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Crystal Maiden and Luna win 51.68% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 17,037 matches.
Laning with a Crystal Maiden means Luna can afford to use Lucent Beam constantly to secure creeps and harass. The global Arcane Aura solves a lot of Luna’s early mana problems. A well-timed Frostbite can also hold an enemy in place long enough for Luna to get in range and finish them off. However, the lane's main weakness is that both heroes are exceptionally fragile and slow. A coordinated dual offlane can run them down repeatedly, as neither has a reliable escape mechanism. The success of the lane often depends more on the enemy's aggression than on this duo's strengths.
This fragility carries over into teamfights. For Crystal Maiden to have a big impact, she needs to channel a full Freezing Field, which makes her a stationary target. Luna, meanwhile, wants to be in the middle of the fight for her attacks and ultimate to be effective, but she can be focused and killed very quickly. The pair works when your team can provide frontline and control, allowing CM to channel her ultimate safely while Luna attacks from the chaos. Without that protection, they both tend to fold under pressure before they can contribute.
