How Legion Commander and Monkey King perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Legion Commander and Monkey King win 47.34% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 864 matches.
Playing against this pair means handling two very different threats at once. The core issue is a conflict between their signature abilities. Monkey King wants to trap the enemy team inside Wukong's Command, forcing a chaotic brawl in a large area. At the same time, Legion Commander wants to pick one hero out of the fight and lock them down with Duel. This creates a dilemma: does the team focus on the Duel target, ignoring the rest of the fight inside the ring, or do they commit to Monkey King's ultimate while Legion Commander is occupied? This split focus often means neither plan is executed well, leading to messy and indecisive teamfights.
