How Monkey King and Warlock perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Monkey King and Warlock win 42.62% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 481 matches.
Struggling to build momentum often comes down to this duo's conflicting pace. Monkey King wants to play fast, constantly moving around the map to force skirmishes and find pickoffs. Warlock, on the other hand, encourages a slower, more grouped-up game centered around his big cooldowns like Chaotic Offering. This mismatch means Warlock often can't provide the right kind of support for Monkey King's aggression. Even in a big teamfight, their kits can feel clumsy together. After the initial Golem stun, Warlock wants to channel Upheaval, which leaves a committed Monkey King without the immediate saves or lockdown he might need to survive inside his Wukong's Command.
