How Night Stalker and Ogre Magi perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Night Stalker and Ogre Magi win 54.82% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,505 matches.
Running at an enemy during the first night becomes a guaranteed kill. Ogre Magi offers the perfect initiation with a point-and-click Fireblast, giving Night Stalker all the time he needs to close the distance and apply his own silence and slow. This leaves the target completely helpless. Later on, Ogre's Bloodlust provides a massive attack speed boost that lets Night Stalker tear through enemies he has pinned down. Both heroes are naturally tough, so they can confidently dive together and apply constant pressure across the map. The simple, effective lockdown Ogre provides directly enables Night Stalker’s entire game plan from start to finish.
