How Legion Commander and Necrophos perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Legion Commander and Necrophos win 57.56% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,448 matches.
Getting caught by a Duel feels like a guaranteed death against this lineup. While Legion Commander has an enemy locked down, Necrophos ensures the fight goes her way. His Heartstopper Aura constantly ticks down the target's health, making the Duel significantly easier for Legion to win. At the same time, Death Pulse can both heal Legion and damage her opponent from a safe distance. If the enemy somehow survives the initial lockdown, they are almost certainly low enough for Reaper's Scythe to finish the job. This not only secures the kill but also adds a brutal respawn timer, making it incredibly difficult for the opposing team to recover from the pick-off.
