How Dragon Knight and Treant Protector perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dragon Knight and Treant Protector win 49.97% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,773 matches.
Chaining Overgrowth into Dragon Tail provides a standard lockdown sequence, but the heroes' overall game plans can feel disconnected. Dragon Knight wants to set an aggressive tempo, forcing fights and towers on his ultimate's cooldown. Treant Protector often prefers a more reactive style, looking for counter-initiations from the trees. While Living Armor is certainly helpful for a sieging Dragon Knight, the duo itself doesn't bring much offensive pressure. They create a very durable core who is hard to kill, but they rely heavily on their other allies to provide the damage needed to win the fights they start, making it difficult to close out advantages.
