Outworld Destroyer + Windranger

Why this works

Putting both these heroes into core roles often creates a greedy draft that struggles to control the map early. Both Outworld Destroyer and Windranger need a significant amount of farm to come online, and neither one is an exceptionally fast farmer in the early game. Their damage profiles are also very similar; they both excel at bursting down a single isolated target. Outside of Sanity's Eclipse, the duo offers very little area damage, making it difficult to deal with summons, illusions, or lineups that group up effectively. Their combined lockdown is also weak, relying on a conditional Shackleshot and an Astral Imprisonment that can be awkward to coordinate offensively.

This lineup usually has a difficult laning stage and has to play defensively for a long time. The goal is for Outworld Destroyer and Windranger to hit their core items and then start securing pickoffs together. However, enemies can exploit this by forcing fights early and grouping as five. Without a strong frontline or initiation from their other teammates, both heroes can be easily overwhelmed. The fight often comes down to blowing up one key hero instantly; if that fails or the target gets saved, the teamfight is likely lost.
