How Jakiro and Shadow Fiend perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41f, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Jakiro and Shadow Fiend win 41.49% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 48,040 matches.
Landing a clean triple Shadowraze often requires instant, reliable setup, which is something Jakiro’s kit struggles to provide. Ice Path has a delay and a thin area of effect, making it a clumsy tool for pinning a target down for Shadow Fiend. This disconnect carries over into larger fights. Both heroes want to plant their feet and unload massive area damage, but neither provides the hard lockdown needed to make that happen reliably. Jakiro can't keep enemies inside Macropyre, and Shadow Fiend often has to find his own openings for a Requiem of Souls. They create a slow, predictable team that lacks a key initiator to tie their powerful spells together.
