How Dark Seer and Hoodwink perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dark Seer and Hoodwink win 46.34% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,481 matches.
Setting up for a teamfight, the main play for this pair is for Dark Seer to Vacuum enemies into Hoodwink's Bushwhack. This can create a powerful, long-duration lockdown for the rest of the team to follow up on. Outside of this specific interaction, however, their kits don't have much overlap. Dark Seer really wants a durable, melee hero to put Ion Shell on and run into the fight, but Hoodwink is a ranged hero who prefers to stay on the edges and kite. This means their success often hinges entirely on landing that one combo. If the setup isn't right or the fight is too spread out, they can feel disconnected from each other's game plans.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
