How Kez and Sven perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Kez and Sven win 45.55% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,270 matches.
Finding enough space on the map tends to be the main issue for this pair. Both Kez and Sven are melee heroes who need a lot of farm to hit their timings and become effective damage dealers. This often puts them in competition for the safest parts of the map, slowing both of them down. While Sven's Storm Hammer can set up a kill, Kez is more of a duelist who wants to take his own fights, not necessarily enable another core. The lineup can feel one-dimensional, relying heavily on physical damage and struggling for control or magical burst, leaving the team vulnerable to coordinated pushes or heavy lockdown.
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.
