How Omniknight and Rubick perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Omniknight and Rubick win 50.63% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 5,461 matches.
Pairing these two heroes often means you're betting on your other cores to provide the control. The main idea is that Omniknight is an excellent bodyguard for a squishy, high-value target like Rubick. Heavenly Grace lets Rubick shake off disables and reposition, while a clutch Guardian Angel can completely negate a physical carry jumping on him. This allows Rubick to play a bit more boldly, knowing he has a powerful defensive ally to bail him out if he gets caught while trying to steal a key spell.
The whole game plan is reactive. You're waiting for the enemy to over-commit into your saves. The duo doesn't offer much lockdown or initiation on its own, so your team depends on others to start things. If the enemy draft lacks big, telegraphed spells for Rubick to take with Spell Steal, the synergy falls apart. Omniknight is left protecting a support who isn't providing a game-winning impact, and the team can feel like it's missing a crucial piece to force fights and take objectives.
