How Lina and Spectre perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lina and Spectre win 55.47% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,317 matches.
Trying to split the map against this pair feels incredibly dangerous. Spectre's Haunt provides perfect vision of the entire enemy team and a way to instantly jump on any hero caught alone. This creates the ideal setup for Lina to follow up. With a target already isolated and taking damage, Lina can easily land her Light StrikeArray stun and unload her full magical burst. The combination of Spectre’s initiation and Lina’s immediate, high-damage spells means a solo hero can be removed from the map before their teammates can even react.
Once Spectre has her ultimate, this duo's threat forces opponents to group up, giving up farm and map control in the process. This provides both Spectre and Lina the space they need to accelerate towards their own key items. In later teamfights, Haunt creates immense chaos. Lina can either focus her Laguna Blade on the primary target Spectre jumps, securing a quick kill on a key hero, or she can simply use the distraction of the illusions to safely position herself and unleash her spells on the confused enemy team.
