How Omniknight and Sniper perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Omniknight and Sniper win 55.01% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 869 matches.
Picking these two together often feels like you're making a trade-off during the draft. Omniknight is a great source of defensive saves for a hero as fragile and immobile as Sniper. A well-timed Heavenly Grace can purge off a crucial disable, letting Sniper reposition, and Guardian Angel can completely negate physical divers who get on top of him. The problem is that their game plans are opposites. Omniknight wants to be in the middle of the fight, while Sniper wants to be on the edge. This makes it hard to get the full value out of a spell like Purification, which often loses its damage component when used on a far-back Sniper.
