How Templar Assassin and Treant Protector perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Templar Assassin and Treant Protector win 45.33% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 300 matches.
Pushing for an early Roshan and ending the game gets complicated with this pairing. Templar Assassin needs to hit a specific timing and then convert that farm advantage into objectives with aggressive plays. Treant Protector, however, plays a much slower, more defensive game. His kit is centered around saving allies with Living Armor and controlling teamfights with Overgrowth, not initiating early ganks. TA already has her own defensive tool in Refraction; she really needs a partner who can provide lockdown to help secure kills for her Meld strike. Waiting for Treant's ultimate is often too slow to create the snowball Templar Assassin requires to take over the map.
