Why this works

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.
