How Ember Spirit and Undying perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Ember Spirit and Undying win 51.24% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 10,993 matches.
Placing a Tombstone in a teamfight gives Ember Spirit countless targets for Searing Chains. He can reliably lock down enemies who are busy dealing with the zombies. Undying creates a chaotic brawling zone with Flesh Golem and Decay, which is an ideal environment for Ember to weave through using Sleight of Fist and his remnants. This allows Ember to apply his damage across multiple heroes while they are slowed and their health pools are lowered, maximizing his magical burst potential.
The main issue is one of tempo. Undying wants to group with his team and force fights from the mid-game onward. Ember Spirit, however, often prefers to use his global mobility to farm aggressively and apply pressure to side lanes. This can lead to moments where Undying commits his spells to a fight, only for Ember to be too far away to follow up. Success depends entirely on the two players coordinating a specific teamfight plan rather than playing to their heroes' default patterns.
