How Dazzle and Marci perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dazzle and Marci win 53.93% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,468 matches.
Keeping Marci alive while she dives the backline is the main plan here. Shallow Grave lets her commit hard with Unleash, buying her the precious few seconds needed to finish a kill even when she's the center of attention. Dazzle’s slows can also help her stick to a target. The problem is that both heroes are vulnerable in their own ways. If the enemy team has an answer for Grave, or if they can simply burst Marci down before Dazzle can react, the whole thing falls apart. The duo also struggles if Dazzle gets focused first, as Marci’s tools to peel for him are limited once she’s already committed to a fight.
