How Kunkka and Mars perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Kunkka and Mars win 44.51% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 173 matches.
Setting up a big Arena of Blood feels great right up until Kunkka’s Ghostship sails through, knocking enemies out of the ring or away from the walls Mars needs for his spear stun. This conflict extends beyond that one interaction. Both heroes want to be the team's primary physical damage initiator, farming similar parts of the map for a Blink Dagger and other core items. When they're on the same team, they compete for resources, and one of them often falls behind. Because both Kunkka and Mars deal heavy physical burst, opponents can easily counter their combined assault by building armor, leaving your team without a reliable way to finish fights.
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. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
