How Tidehunter and Undying perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Tidehunter and Undying win 55.60% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,196 matches.
Winning the offlane becomes a straightforward affair with these two. Undying constantly saps strength with Decay, making enemies softer and easier for Tidehunter to bully with Anchor Smash. The sheer tankiness of both heroes means they can stand their ground and trade hits favorably from the very start. Anyone caught by a Gush is an easy target for Tombstone zombies, and it’s very difficult for a carry to find any farm against that much constant pressure and kill threat. They don’t need to coordinate much; their kits naturally amplify each other’s aggression.
This lane dominance translates into a powerful mid-game timing. The strategy is to group up and force fights, where the pair excels. A single Ravage from Tidehunter provides the perfect setup for Undying to drop Tombstone and activate Flesh Golem in the middle of the enemy team. Trying to fight into that combination head-on is a losing battle. The other team is forced to play from behind, needing to split the map and avoid a direct engagement, because they know they can’t survive a brawl against this much area control and durability.
