How Legion Commander and Techies perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Legion Commander and Techies win 55.34% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,975 matches.
Getting caught in a Duel is bad enough, but it becomes a guaranteed kill when a Techies is nearby. Legion Commander provides the perfect setup, locking a single hero in place for an extended duration. This gives Techies a stationary target for his entire kit. He can easily land multiple Sticky Bombs and place Proximity Mines directly under the Duel for unavoidable burst damage. Even if the enemy survives the initial onslaught, Techies can use Blast Off right as the Duel ends, applying a silence to prevent any escape or retaliation.
This pairing comes online the moment Legion Commander gets her Blink Dagger and starts hunting. Techies can follow her around the map, and together they can secure a stream of successful Duels that quickly snowballs LC's damage. This forces the enemy team to group up much earlier than they'd like, surrendering map control and farm. The main counterplay is to have save items or spells ready, but the sheer amount of magic damage from Techies often deletes the hero before any support can react.
