How Tidehunter and Treant Protector perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Tidehunter and Treant Protector win 47.31% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 4,208 matches.
Playing against this duo can feel like hitting a wall. Tidehunter is already incredibly difficult to kill, and having Treant Protector’s Living Armor available from anywhere on the map makes him even more durable. In teamfights, the threat of two massive area-of-effect ultimates is always present. A clean Ravage followed by Overgrowth locks down an entire team for a very long time, creating a huge opening for your damage dealers.
The main issue is that both heroes fill a similar role. Stacking Ravage and Overgrowth is often overkill; one is usually enough to win a fight, and using both at once can be a waste of major cooldowns. Tidehunter and Treant Protector provide control, but very little damage themselves. This means the draft is completely reliant on its other cores to convert that lockdown into kills. If your damage dealers are behind or get picked off before the fight, you have two heroes who can set up a fight but have no way to finish it.
