How Monkey King and Muerta perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Monkey King and Muerta win 33.54% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 158 matches.
Putting these two cores on the same team often creates a very greedy draft that's easy to counter. Both Monkey King and Muerta need a significant amount of farm to be effective, and they largely deal physical damage, making armor items a clean answer for the enemy team. Their teamfight goals are also completely at odds. Monkey King wants to jump into the middle of the enemy with Wukong's Command. Muerta wants to activate Pierce the Veil and shoot from a safe, stationary position. This fundamental conflict means one of them is almost always out of position or unable to contribute effectively, leading to disjointed fights.
