How Dark Seer and Primal Beast perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41f, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Dark Seer and Primal Beast win 49.21% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 4,237 matches.
Getting run at by a Primal Beast with Ion Shell and Surge is a rough start to any fight. He covers ground incredibly fast, and the combined damage from Trample and the shell is significant for anyone caught nearby. The combo can feel a bit awkward after that initial charge, though. Primal Beast often wants to commit his full duration Pulverize on a single locked-down enemy. This can conflict with Dark Seer's plan, which usually involves a big Vacuum to reposition the entire enemy team for a Wall of Replica. These two gameplans don't always line up, leaving their overall impact feeling inconsistent from one teamfight to the next.

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.
