Small sample: this pairing has only 94 ranked matches in the current window, so its win rate will swing more than deep-sample pairings as new games come in.
Why this works
Fighting for the same pockets of farm after the laning stage makes things difficult. Both Ember Spirit and Storm Spirit are tempo cores who need a ton of gold and solo experience to hit their power spikes. When they share a team, they're often competing for the same active parts of the map, which can leave one or both of them under-leveled and under-farmed. Their damage types also overlap significantly. This makes it easy for opponents to itemize against them with magic resistance, severely weakening the mid-game burst potential from both heroes. The lineup ends up with two cores who want to do the same job, but neither gets the resources to do it properly.
