How Omniknight and Riki perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Omniknight and Riki win 50.45% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 222 matches.
Pairing a defensive hero like Omniknight with an aggressive one like Riki can look odd during the draft, but their kits cover each other's flaws well. Riki often finds himself deep in enemy lines where he's vulnerable to being stunned and focused. A well-timed Heavenly Grace from Omniknight can purge a key disable, letting Riki either escape or finish his target. This interaction makes Riki much harder to pin down. Later on, a Guardian Angel during a teamfight means Riki can freely attack physical damage cores without fear of retaliation, letting him clean up fights that would otherwise be too risky to take.
