How Muerta and Shadow Shaman perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Muerta and Shadow Shaman win 51.42% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 737 matches.
Holding a target still for Muerta's ultimate is the core of this pair's game plan. Shadow Shaman's long-duration disables, like Shackles and Hex, give Muerta the window she needs to apply her full damage output on a key enemy. Without that kind of setup, opponents can often walk away or react before her damage fully connects. This lockdown is also effective during the laning stage, making it easier for Muerta to contribute to a kill with her burst. The combination helps them control tempo by picking off isolated heroes and then transitioning that advantage into pushing towers with Serpent Wards.
