In Dota 2 7.41e, Dragon Knight and Razor win 49.90% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,615 matches.
Trying to build a teamfight around this pair can feel a little awkward. Both Dragon Knight and Razor want to be durable frontliners who run at the enemy team, but their kits don't always amplify each other effectively. The primary synergy is a Dragon Tail stun setting up a perfect Static Link for Razor, which is certainly useful. Beyond that, they offer a similar kind of sustained, single-target pressure. This can leave your draft lacking the area-of-effect control or high burst damage needed to quickly win a fight, making your overall strategy feel predictable.
The game plan usually involves grouping up once Dragon Knight gets his Elder Dragon Form and pushing down towers. Dragon Knight provides the frontline tanking and stun, while Razor brings the damage by draining an enemy core. This can roll over teams that lack disengage or ways to break the link. However, against lineups with mobility, multiple stuns, or Force Staffs, the strategy quickly crumbles. Razor gets kited and his damage output drops to zero, leaving Dragon Knight stranded without enough damage to follow up on his own initiation. It's a combination that needs things to go right to succeed.
