How Dazzle and Warlock perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dazzle and Warlock win 49.52% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,985 matches.
Fighting against this pair often becomes a slow grind. Warlock's Fatal Bonds can help spread the physical damage from Dazzle's Shadow Wave, and the double sustain from their heals makes their cores tough to kill in a drawn-out fight. The problem is that both supports are defensive by nature and offer very little lockdown. They have trouble initiating or dealing with mobile heroes who can simply avoid the long engagement they want to create. Without a strong initiator on the team, this duo can feel passive, waiting for the enemy to make a move and struggling to create their own opportunities on the map.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. 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.

| Crusader & Archon | 52.56% | 352 |
