How Outworld Destroyer and Riki perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Outworld Destroyer and Riki win 53.59% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 3,047 matches.
Setting up a kill with Astral Imprisonment sounds good for Riki, but the reality is often clumsy. Banishing a hero makes them invulnerable, which interrupts Riki's attack sequence right when he wants to apply his burst. This pause can give the enemy team a moment to react once he's visible. While the banish can guarantee a target is inside Smoke Screen when it ends, the two heroes have conflicting ideas about positioning. Outworld Destroyer wants to control fights from a distance, while Riki needs to be in the middle of everything. They don't naturally enable each other, and sometimes one hero's big spell can actively get in the other's way.
