In Dota 2 7.41e, Puck and Tinker win 37.78% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 45 matches.

Small sample: this pairing has only 45 ranked matches in the current window, so its win rate will swing more than deep-sample pairings as new games come in.

Why this works

Drafting these two together puts your team in a difficult position from the start. Both Puck and Tinker are natural midlaners who need a lot of farm and experience to come online, so one is immediately forced into a less effective role. Their playstyles also clash during fights. Puck wants to initiate with Dream Coil, setting up a contained fight for the team to collapse on. Tinker, however, plays from a completely different screen, contributing damage from extreme range. This leaves Puck’s control without any close-range follow-up, and the draft as a whole lacks physical damage, a durable frontline, and a cohesive plan.
