How Kez and Outworld Destroyer perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Kez and Outworld Destroyer win 48.65% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 259 matches.
Building a draft around both Kez and Outworld Destroyer is tough because their game plans directly conflict. You end up with two selfish, single-target cores who don't enable each other. Kez wants to get in close and duel opponents, but OD offers no frontline presence or reliable lockdown to help him do that. In return, Kez doesn't bring the team-wide control or saves that Outworld Destroyer needs to survive and deal damage from the backline. A defensive Astral Imprisonment can even be a negative, saving Kez but breaking his combo momentum and letting his target escape. Each hero wants to be the star, but neither sets the stage for the other.
