How Marci and Troll Warlord perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Marci and Troll Warlord win 49.50% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,590 matches.
Throwing an enemy back with Dispose seems like a perfect setup for Troll Warlord. He can lock them down and build up his Fervor stacks for a quick kill. In practice, their strengths can be a little redundant. Marci's Unleash pulses provide a huge attack speed boost, but Troll is already one of the fastest attackers in the game and doesn't gain as much from it as other cores would. Both heroes also want to commit hard to a fight and can be punished together by teams that can disengage or kite well. While Marci can certainly enable Troll Warlord, she doesn't patch up his core weaknesses, making their pairing feel fairly neutral overall.
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.
