How Outworld Destroyer and Spirit Breaker perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Outworld Destroyer and Spirit Breaker win 54.72% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 9,509 matches.
Picking these two is a bet on your ability to coordinate ganks. Outworld Destroyer can use Astral Imprisonment to hold a target in place, giving Spirit Breaker the perfect window to connect a Charge of Darkness from across the map. This combination provides a long-range, reliable lockdown that's very effective at securing kills on isolated heroes, especially in the early and mid-game. When it works, it lets your team control the map by punishing anyone who steps out of line.
The problem is that this setup is predictable. Once an enemy is banished by Outworld Destroyer, their team knows exactly where and when Spirit Breaker will arrive, so they can prepare saves or counter-stuns. In full five-on-five teamfights, the plan can fall apart. Spirit Breaker often dives deep on a single hero, leaving himself vulnerable, while Outworld Destroyer may not get the clean, multi-hero Sanity's Eclipse he wants. Success really hinges on catching enemies alone rather than forcing full engagements.
