How Medusa and Tinker perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Medusa and Tinker win 35.68% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 199 matches.
Having both these heroes on a team puts an immense strain on your map's resources. Medusa and Tinker are two of the greediest cores in the game, and they fundamentally want to farm in conflicting ways. Tinker is constantly pushing out every lane with his spells to accelerate his own net worth. Meanwhile, Medusa needs to clear waves and secure the nearby jungle to hit her crucial item timings. They end up actively starving each other of gold and experience. This gives the enemy a huge window to group up, run at your towers, and take control of the game before either hero can come online.
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.
