How Nyx Assassin and Winter Wyvern perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Nyx Assassin and Winter Wyvern win 56.15% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 317 matches.
Getting caught by Winter's Curse is a lot more dangerous when there's a Nyx Assassin lurking. The ultimate holds a hero in place, giving Nyx a clear window to land Impale and his full burst combo without the target being able to react. This setup helps him connect his stun reliably on a key hero. Later in the game, Winter Wyvern can use Cold Embrace to save Nyx after he dives deep for a kill. We haven't seen this duo together much lately, so it might not be as consistent as it seems.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
