How Gyrocopter and Phantom Assassin perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Gyrocopter and Phantom Assassin win 46.10% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 449 matches.
Itemizing against this lineup is often straightforward. Both Gyrocopter and Phantom Assassin typically want to be the primary source of physical damage for their team, which creates a greedy and predictable composition. This overlap forces one of them into an uncomfortable role or timing, leaving the draft vulnerable. Lacking a core with strong magical burst or lockdown, the team struggles against heroes who can build armor or simply disengage. While Call Down offers a teamfight slow, it isn't the kind of hard disable Phantom Assassin needs to secure her burst damage on a key target. The lineup often feels like two carries competing for the same resources and game plan, making it easy to dismantle.
