How Luna and Io perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Luna and Io win 52.13% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,247 matches.
Relocating Luna into an empty lane lets her flash-farm the wave with Moon Glaives and immediately return to the jungle, accelerating her item progression without sacrificing map presence. The constant movement speed and regeneration from Tether also keeps her topped up and farming efficiently, rarely needing to return to the fountain. This lets Io focus on stacking camps or securing runes, creating a resource loop that quickly pushes Luna ahead of the enemy carry. The entire laning stage is smoother and safer.
As the game progresses, this farm lead is meant to translate into early objective control. The duo can appear anywhere on the map to join a fight or secure a pickoff with Eclipse, forcing constant reactions. The main weakness is that the strategy is predictable. A coordinated team will focus on bursting Io the moment they Relocate in, leaving Luna stranded and vulnerable. The effectiveness of the pair often hinges on whether the enemy team has the tools and awareness to punish the committed nature of the gank.
