Why this works

Thinking of Morphling as a high-health Infest bomb is a common mistake. In practice, these heroes step on each other's toes all game. Both Lifestealer and Morphling are farm-intensive carries who want to occupy the same safe parts of the map, slowing down both of their item progressions. Morphling is also a poor host for Infest; he wants to stay on the edge of fights dealing damage, not serve as a delivery vehicle. If he’s forced to shift into high strength to survive getting jumped on, his own damage output plummets, making the whole plan fall apart. Lifestealer needs a durable initiator, not a second carry.

How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
