How Slardar and Treant Protector perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Slardar and Treant Protector win 47.89% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 426 matches.
Setting up a pick-off is where this pair starts to work well. Treant Protector can lock down a priority target with Overgrowth, giving Slardar a free window to Sprint in and apply Corrosive Haze. With their armor gone, that enemy hero melts to physical damage from your whole team. It’s not a flashy combo, but it's reliable. Outside of that big ultimate, Treant can also keep enemies slowed with Leech Seed so Slardar can stay on top of them. Living Armor provides some welcome sustain for Slardar when he has to go deep for a kill, making him surprisingly difficult to bring down as he secures the objective.
