How Phantom Lancer and Ursa perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Phantom Lancer and Ursa win 45.05% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 222 matches.
Facing both Phantom Lancer and Ursa can be awkward, as itemizing against one isn't great for the other. The real problem, however, is on their own team. Both heroes are greedy melee cores that need a lot of farm from the safest lanes and jungle camps to come online. They want to occupy the same space and take the same resources. This competition often means one hero gets the farm they need while the other falls behind schedule. An Ursa without his core items can't burst anyone during Overpower, and a poor Phantom Lancer can't create a threatening illusion army. The team ends up with two similar damage dealers who step on each other's toes.
