How Monkey King and Techies perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Monkey King and Techies win 49.13% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 574 matches.
Facing a team with these two heroes often feels like dealing with two separate plans at once. Monkey King wants to find an opening from the trees, drop Wukong's Command, and force a fight inside his circle right now. Techies, on the other hand, excels at controlling space over time, preparing areas with Proximity Mines where he wants the fight to happen later. The ideal spot for Monkey King to pounce is rarely the same spot Techies has spent the last minute fortifying, which can lead to a messy, split-up engagement.
This disconnect plays out across the game. During teamfights, Monkey King might trap several enemies in his ultimate, but there's no pre-placed mine damage to follow up. Conversely, a perfectly mined area might go unused because Monkey King can't safely force enemies into it. The result is that one hero's big moment often happens without the other's support. Opponents can frequently deal with one threat at a time, either avoiding the mines to kill Monkey King or kiting his ultimate while clearing out the Techies bombs from a safe distance.
