How Enigma and Nyx Assassin perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Enigma and Nyx Assassin win 50.18% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 279 matches.
Protecting a Black Hole channel is a lot easier with a Nyx Assassin on your team. While Enigma holds enemies in place, Nyx can use Impale to stop anyone trying to run in and cancel the ultimate. Against heroes with single-target stuns, a well-timed Mana Burn can be even better, draining their resources before they can even cast the spell. This partnership works both ways too. Nyx can scout ahead with Vendetta to find clumped-up enemies, giving Enigma the perfect opening to initiate. It's a simple but effective pairing that makes Enigma’s teamfight contribution much more consistent.
