How Timbersaw and Treant Protector perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Timbersaw and Treant Protector win 41.41% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 326 matches.
Pairing these two heroes seems smart since they both play around trees, but their goals are completely opposite. Timbersaw wants to constantly cut trees to maximize his damage with Whirling Death and to move with Timber Chain. This actively destroys the environment that Treant Protector needs to be effective. Every tree Timbersaw fells is a spot where Treant can no longer use Nature's Guise to move unseen, set up ganks, or protect his team. This conflict forces Treant Protector to play out in the open, stripping away a core part of his kit and making it much harder for him to find a good Overgrowth. They end up working against each other on the map.
