How Marci and Monkey King perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Marci and Monkey King win 47.19% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 303 matches.
Thinking you can just stack physical damage buffs seems like the play, but in practice, these two get in each other's way. The core problem is a direct conflict between their abilities in a teamfight. Monkey King wants to lock everyone down inside Wukong's Command to build up his damage, but Marci's default instinct is to grab a target with Dispose and throw them. This frequently results in Marci "saving" an enemy by tossing them out of the ring. Both heroes also want to be the primary initiator with their jump-in spells, which often leads to them landing on different targets and splitting the team's focus right at the start of a fight.
