How Dawnbreaker and Sven perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dawnbreaker and Sven win 54.97% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 935 matches.
Trying to split the map to avoid a fed Sven is usually the right call, but it backfires hard against this duo. The moment Sven finds a target and lands his Storm Hammer, Dawnbreaker can use Solar Guardian to land on top of him from anywhere. This turns any pickoff attempt into a full-blown gank with overwhelming damage and control. It forces the enemy team to play uncomfortably close together, which is exactly what a Sven with God's Strength and Great Cleave wants. Dawnbreaker effectively gives him global reach, ensuring he's never kited and can always start the fight he needs to win the game.
