Dazzle + Ember Spirit

Why this works

Coordinating attacks with Ember Spirit can feel a bit disconnected for Dazzle. The core of Dazzle's kit is about enabling sustained fights through healing and a well-timed Shallow Grave, often alongside a hero who stands their ground. Ember Spirit, however, plays a completely different game. He relies on fast, in-and-out magical burst, using Sleight of Fist and Searing Chains before zipping out with a Fire Remnant. While a Grave can absolutely save an overextended Ember, the rest of Dazzle's abilities don't find a perfect home. The tempo and damage types just don't naturally align, creating a pairing that can feel awkward.

This often results in the two heroes playing on separate parts of the map for much of the game. Ember Spirit is looking for aggressive pick-offs while Dazzle is better suited to protecting a different core who is farming or pushing a lane. In teamfights, the success of the duo hinges almost entirely on that one Shallow Grave timing. If Dazzle saves Ember, it can allow him to get a second round of spells off. But if the enemy has lockdown for after the Grave ends, or if Ember is too far from Dazzle to begin with, the synergy falls apart completely.
