How Doom and Winter Wyvern perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Doom and Winter Wyvern win 47.47% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,886 matches.
The main point of friction with this pairing is the direct conflict between their ultimates. Winter's Curse makes its target completely immune to damage from allies, which is the exact opposite of what Doom wants to accomplish. His ultimate is all about burning a single target down with sustained damage. If both of these powerful, long-cooldown spells land on the same enemy, the damage from Doom is completely wasted. This forces your team to either use them on separate targets, which can be messy to coordinate, or to stagger them, which reduces your immediate lockdown potential in a fight.
In practice, this means your team's main initiation tools are working against each other. Doom wants to blink in, Doom a priority hero, and have his team help finish them off. If Winter Wyvern tries to add her ultimate to that same target, she’s actually saving them from all of Doom's damage. While Wyvern can save Doom with Cold Embrace if he gets focused, this requires extra attention. Successful teamfights depend on clear communication to keep the two ultimates from overlapping, adding a layer of difficulty that makes securing key kills less reliable.
