How Kunkka and Sven perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Kunkka and Sven win 51.46% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 4,131 matches.
Tossing an X Marks the Spot on a target guarantees a landing spot for Sven's Storm Hammer, making ganks much more reliable. Kunkka can follow up with his own stuns and Ghostship for a pile of area control and burst damage. The catch is that both heroes often want to be the primary farmer on the map. They can end up competing for the same camps and lanes, slowing down key item timings for both of them. If Sven gets a good start with Kunkka creating space, he can run away with the game under God's Strength. If they both get starved, the combo lacks the items to matter.
