How Gyrocopter and Tusk perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Gyrocopter and Tusk win 44.09% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 279 matches.
Controlling the map with this duo often leads to a split strategy that helps neither hero. Tusk is built to create pressure and gank from the very start of the game, looking for pickoffs with Snowball. Gyrocopter, however, needs to focus on farming core items to scale properly and can't afford to join every single fight across the map. If Gyrocopter rotates, his farm slows to a crawl. If he doesn't, Tusk's initiations often lack the necessary damage to finish a kill, leaving him out of position. Tusk's desire to force close-quarters fights also puts a fragile Gyrocopter in immense danger before he can get a BKB online.
