How Faceless Void and Phantom Assassin perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Faceless Void and Phantom Assassin win 39.34% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 366 matches.
Teamfights around a big Chronosphere often feel awkward for this pairing. Phantom Assassin is a melee hero who needs to be directly on her target to deal damage. If she isn't in the perfect spot before the Chronosphere goes down, she's either stuck outside watching or frozen inside with the enemy team. Faceless Void can’t reliably set up kills for her, and she provides none of the long-range damage he typically wants from his allies during the ultimate. On top of that, both heroes are farm-intensive melee carries, meaning they often compete for the same resources and space on the map, slowing down everyone's timings.
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.

| Crusader & Archon | 37.79% | 426 |
