How Ember Spirit and Tinker perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41f, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Ember Spirit and Tinker win 42.19% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,501 matches.
Putting both Ember Spirit and Tinker on the same team creates a huge problem for your economy. Both heroes are exceptionally greedy and want to farm the same parts of the map. Tinker will be using Rearm to clear waves and jungle camps from safety, while Ember Spirit wants to use his Remnants and Sleight of Fist to do the exact same thing. This direct competition for resources means both heroes hit their key item timings much later than they should. The team often ends up with two under-farmed cores instead of one strong one, feeling starved for gold and space across the board.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
