How Legion Commander and Magnus perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Legion Commander and Magnus win 50.62% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 10,941 matches.
Seeing a fed Legion Commander is already a problem, but seeing one with Empower is a different level of threat. Magnus providing that cleave and bonus damage lets her farm much faster between Duels and, more importantly, helps secure the kill inside the duel itself. The ideal setup is a big Reverse Polarity that catches multiple heroes, letting Legion Commander walk in and pick her preferred target without any interference. It creates a clear and simple objective: find a target, stun them, and let LC finish the job for her bonus damage.
The plan relies on both heroes having a good start. If either Magnus or Legion Commander falls behind, the whole strategy can crumble. They both need a lot of farm to be effective, and can end up competing for space on the map. Enemies will try to split them up or gank one before the other can react, turning a potential teamfight win into a free kill. It's a combination that requires good coordination and a favorable game pace to work, otherwise it can feel like two heroes trying to do one job.
