Why this works
Drafting both Ember Spirit and Puck onto the same team often puts your lineup in a bind. They're both tempo-oriented cores who want the same farm priority and deal mostly magical burst damage. This forces one of them into a less effective role and makes it very easy for the enemy to counter-build with magic resistance items. An early Pipe of Insight can neutralize a huge amount of your team's output. While Puck’s Dream Coil is a great setup for Searing Chains, the combo doesn't solve the core problem: a severe lack of sustained physical damage to kill tanky heroes or, more importantly, hit buildings to end the game.
