How Kez and Winter Wyvern perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Kez and Winter Wyvern win 45.50% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,789 matches.
Coordinating a teamfight can feel a bit awkward. Winter Wyvern excels at locking down a single enemy with Winter's Curse, forcing everyone nearby to attack them. Kez, however, is a duelist who wants to pick his own opponent and use his stances to win a one-on-one engagement. If the cursed target isn't the one Kez needs to be on, his damage is effectively wasted or he is forced to wait out the duration. While Cold Embrace provides a helpful save for a melee carry diving into the fight, this core conflict during their most important spells means their plans can sometimes work at cross-purposes, leading to messy engagements.
