Silencer + Wraith King

Why this works

Trying to burst down a Wraith King before he can fight is the standard plan, but Global Silence makes that nearly impossible. As Wraith King moves in, Silencer can shut down any enemy spellcasters trying to kite or disable him. This forces opponents to use only auto-attacks and items, which is rarely enough to stop him from using his own stun before he dies the first time. While Wraith King is in Reincarnation, the enemy team is still silenced and helpless, letting his allies reposition and take control of the fight. It creates a perfect window for him to come back to life and get a second stun off.

This pattern starts early, with Silencer's laning pressure often securing a safe start for Wraith King to farm. Once Global Silence is available, their whole game plan revolves around forcing teamfights where the enemy can't properly react. The counter-play involves trying to catch Silencer out of position before a fight begins, as without him, Wraith King is much more vulnerable to being controlled. Lacking that, enemies are often forced to give up objectives rather than take a fight they know they can't win while silenced.
