How Kunkka and Wraith King perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Kunkka and Wraith King win 55.76% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 538 matches.
Putting X Marks the Spot on your Wraith King before a fight creates a nightmare for the other team. It means he can use both of his lives with almost no risk. Wraith King can dive deep, force cooldowns, and die, knowing that after he Reincarnates, Kunkka can pull him back to the safety of the backline. This completely negates the standard response to Wraith King, which is to camp his body and kill him a second time. Kunkka's stuns also set up easy targets for Wraith King to connect with his own stun and start dealing damage.
This pairing defines the team's entire game plan. Wraith King becomes the ultimate front-line bait, soaking up attention and the enemy's biggest spells. Kunkka plays behind him, providing control and damage, all while holding the crucial escape tool. The enemy is forced to overcommit massive resources to kill Wraith King, only to see him reappear safely in his own backline, ready to rejoin the fight a few seconds later. This constant pressure and resource drain is incredibly difficult for most lineups to handle.
