How Doom and Sand King perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Doom and Sand King win 45.98% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,542 matches.
Finding enough farm on the map can feel a bit tight with this duo. Both Doom and Sand King often want to occupy similar areas, using the offlane and adjacent jungle to secure their core items and levels. This can slow down the timing for a Blink Dagger or a crucial ultimate level. In fights, their contributions don't always stack up neatly. Sand King wants to jump into the middle of the enemy team with Epicenter, while Doom is more focused on finding and disabling a single high-value target. A Burrowstrike can set up a Doom, but it's not a particularly powerful combination, and they often end up acting independently.
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.
