How Mars and Ringmaster perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Mars and Ringmaster win 42.57% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 404 matches.
Trying to draft both of these heroes for teamfight control usually creates more problems than it solves. Mars wants to isolate enemies inside Arena of Blood, pinning them against the wall with Spear of Mars. Ringmaster, however, also wants to control enemy positioning with his hypnotic pull and various traps. This leads to them fighting over the same targets. Ringmaster might pull a hero right as Mars lines up a perfect spear, or Mars might trap an enemy that Ringmaster was trying to manipulate. They have overlapping jobs that actively interfere with each other, resulting in a combination that feels messy and much less effective than pairing either hero with a more complementary partner.
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.
