How Crystal Maiden and Monkey King perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Crystal Maiden and Monkey King win 47.40% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 8,949 matches.
Facing this lane often feels manageable for the opposing heroes. While Crystal Maiden can offer a Frostbite to help set up a fight, it's a single-target spell that doesn't guarantee Monkey King can get all his Jingu Mastery stacks off. The core issue is their conflicting positions in a teamfight. Monkey King wants to leap into the middle of the enemy with Wukong's Command, forcing a chaotic brawl. Crystal Maiden, on the other hand, needs to stay far back in a safe spot to channel Freezing Field. This means one of them is usually in the wrong place, preventing them from combining their most powerful spells effectively.
