How Drow Ranger and Ogre Magi perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Drow Ranger and Ogre Magi win 48.06% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 35,805 matches.
Casting Bloodlust on Drow Ranger provides a significant attack speed steroid, which helps her stack up Frost Arrow slows and get more Marksmanship procs in a fight. The bonus movement speed also helps her kite enemies, a core part of her playstyle. The issue is that Ogre Magi doesn't offer much to keep Drow alive when she gets caught. He has a single-target stun, but he lacks the repositioning, strong defensive buffs, or sustained lockdown that a fragile carry like Drow Ranger desperately needs against coordinated dives. This makes the pairing feel very aggressive, but also very brittle.
In the laning stage, Ogre Magi can be an effective bully, creating space for Drow to farm. Later, the plan is to group as five, with a Bloodlusted Drow providing immense tower pressure from a distance. The entire game hinges on this positioning. While Ogre can sometimes get a lucky Multicast stun on a key diver, he generally can't peel multiple heroes off his carry. The duo is very effective when Drow can attack from a safe position, but it falls apart quickly if the enemy team has good gap-close and simply runs at her.
