How Lone Druid and Monkey King perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lone Druid and Monkey King win 41.32% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 167 matches.
Picking both of these heroes often forces a difficult decision about who gets to be the team's primary physical damage dealer. Lone Druid wants to methodically take objectives with his Spirit Bear, applying constant pressure and forcing reactions. Monkey King is looking for opportunities to jump in and start chaotic fights, ideally with a big Wukong's Command. The problem is they don't help each other execute these plans. The bear can't follow Monkey King into the trees, and neither hero provides the reliable lockdown the other needs to secure kills. They end up competing for farm to execute two different game plans, which often leaves the team feeling disjointed and weak around key timings.
