How Techies and Zeus perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Techies and Zeus win 50.09% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,174 matches.
Trying to run back to base on low health is a nightmare against this pair. Zeus can use Thundergod's Wrath to show the whole map, giving Techies the perfect setup to land Blast Off! and secure a kill from almost anywhere. This constant global threat forces enemies to play much safer and gives your team massive map control. Even in lane or during a gank, a simple Lightning Bolt from Zeus provides the ground vision Techies needs to land a jump or place mines effectively. Together they make it incredibly risky for any enemy to walk around alone, which you can use to take objectives freely.
