How Mars and Snapfire perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Mars and Snapfire win 44.82% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,303 matches.
Trying to combine their ultimates often backfires. Mars wants to trap key targets inside his Arena of Blood, setting up for his team to burst them down. The problem is that the Arena wall physically blocks the projectiles from Snapfire's Mortimer's Kisses. This means Snapfire's biggest damage contribution is completely nullified by her own ally's setup. Even their basic spells can conflict; a poorly timed Scatterblast can knock an enemy off Mars's spear, saving them instead of securing a kill. They fundamentally want to fight at different ranges and their spells get in each other's way.
This clunky teamfight dynamic means they struggle to take objectives. After Mars lands a good initiation, the follow-up damage that should secure the fight is often missing because Snapfire can't get her ultimate to land inside the Arena. This forces Snapfire into dangerous positions to use her other spells, or it forces Mars to use a less effective Arena to give her a line of sight. The combo feels awkward and loses fights that other pairings win, which leads to lost map control and falling behind.
