How Mars and Clockwerk perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Mars and Clockwerk win 44.55% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 211 matches.
Facing off against both Clockwerk and Mars, you start to notice they get in each other's way. Their big initiation spells are redundant; a successful Hookshot into Cogs often makes Arena of Blood feel like a waste on the same target. Worse, the spells can actively work against each other. A poorly timed set of Cogs can knock an enemy away from the Arena wall, ruining a perfect Spear of Mars setup for Mars. Since both heroes typically want to be the frontline initiator and often occupy the same role, their game plans can conflict from the very start, leading to a clunky and predictable draft.
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.
