How Dazzle and Primal Beast perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dazzle and Primal Beast win 50.21% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,133 matches.
Choosing to pair Dazzle with Primal Beast can feel like a gamble. On one hand, a well-timed Shallow Grave can extend a Trample by several crucial seconds, letting the beast finish off key targets while seemingly unkillable. This is the ideal scenario where their kits line up. On the other hand, Primal Beast’s aggressive initiation with Onslaught often puts him deep in enemy territory, far from Dazzle’s cast range. If the initial burst and stun from Pulverize don't create enough space, Dazzle might not even get a chance to use his spells. This makes their success highly dependent on the enemy team's lockdown and positioning, resulting in a partnership that doesn't consistently produce strong results.
