Medusa + Sniper

Why this works

Putting two long-range carries on one team seems like it would create an untouchable backline, but the reality is more complicated. Medusa and Sniper both want to stand still and attack from a safe distance, and they share the same vulnerability to heroes that can close the gap. While Medusa’s Stone Gaze can create an opportunity for Sniper to get free hits, the two heroes often end up competing for the safest farm on the map. This double-core setup requires a lot of space and protection from the rest of the team, making the early and mid-game phases feel fragile and easily punished.

Success with this duo depends entirely on whether your team can survive until both cores have their key items. The enemy's game plan is straightforward: pressure your lanes and end the game before Medusa and Sniper come online. If your team can successfully defend and create space, you can eventually set up a powerful siege and high-ground defense. However, if the enemy has strong initiators and applies constant pressure, this lineup crumbles quickly, as neither hero is good at playing from behind or creating their own space.
