How Tiny and Io perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Tiny and Io win 41.35% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 503 matches.
Saving a committed Tiny is a tough job for Io. The classic Relocate gank is an all-or-nothing play; if the initial burst from Avalanche and Toss doesn't secure the kill, Tiny has no way out. He gets focused, and Io’s healing often isn’t enough to save him from being chain-stunned and killed. In a longer teamfight, Io's Overcharge provides less value because Tiny's own attack speed is naturally slow. Other heroes make better use of Io's powerful sustain and buffs, while Tiny often prefers partners who can add more damage to his initial burst or help him escape after he goes all in.
