How Doom and Slardar perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Doom and Slardar win 40.12% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 172 matches.
Running the map relies on this pair getting ahead early. Slardar and Doom both want to play fast and hunt heroes, and their kits combine for that goal. Corrosive Haze makes Doom's physical attacks hit much harder, and a follow-up of Slithereen Crush and Doom's own lockdowns can delete a single target completely. The main issue is that they are both melee cores who need a good start to get going. If one or both fall behind, they can end up competing for the same farm and find it difficult to initiate safely, which can cause the whole game plan to stall out.
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.
| Rank | Team win rate | Matches |
|---|---|---|
| Crusader & Archon | 42.35% | 170 |
| Legend & Ancient | 40.94% | 149 |
