In your opinion what are the best lane combo of 2 heros?
For example a funny combo that i use to do is the PUGNAMAGI(pugna + ogre magi) it's very funny because your enemy explode like dynamite .
A strong 2 stunner combo is tiny+centaur but is a lot famous.

What's your ones?

[TimothySmithe]

Hmm maybe sk + lina is a pretty deadly one

[LittleCavi]

Another one really funny is Techies + Rubick! Throw your enemis to the mine

[Slicerider]

Crystal Maiden + Juggernaut, for pretty obvious reasons

[Burrowed]

Ursa, AA is amazing. Once Ursa gets phase its GG.

PotM + SK. With a good SK stun, both creeps can die and the enemy hero gets stunned, allowing an easy arrow.

The classic PL +KotL. Just too heavy of nukes to stay in the lane. Lance slow = easy illuminate and with Chakra mana will not be an issue.

SD + Kunnka. Disruption + Soul Catcher + Torrent.

Ultimate annoying combo: Venomancer, Viper

I say it's pretty rage inducing lol.

They are both pretty squishy and a good support can out-harrass them if played well. If they are against a double melee or solo melee lane though, they got some serious trouble.

Tiny-Slandar is devastating if things get going. Farming the mana boots might be tricky though since both are melee,but after that the lane is absolutely theirs.
Rylai+morphling can harrass extrelemely bad as well. Especially if morph stacks a basilius on top of rylai's aura. They have a total of 4 skills to harrass with and zero mana problems.
Rylai+Yurnero is a bit overrated. Yurnero+ Rhasta can be much more deadly, yet a little less forgiving on mana.

One thing that I wonder about but I have never tried myself or seen in action is Bloodseeker+silencer. Silencer focusing on the curse and bloodseeker silencing and damaging on top of it. It could be deadly actually.

And the usual pudge+techies, rubick+techies, etc, combos, that require a tad higher skill cap to manage,but are equally painful. In my opinion they are not worth the trouble though. Better get that pudge on mid,or have rubick babysit the carry,etc. If something goes wrong with these combos,there is no way back into the game for these heroes since they are all more level than item dependant.

Well that is true, but a single support can't really out harass them both since, Viper can you hit you while near creeps, because he has an orb, and Veno has Gale and Sting which will make you super slow. Of course it depends on the lanes, and ofc the weakness is they have no stun, but their right clicking power and slows are just really annoying and strong. Also Venomancer is probably is on the best harassing support hero in the game.

Silencer, Bloodseeker works well they you have someone that has a low mana spell like blink or something, and very situational. Very unconventional lane setup too since they both are solo heroes.

Another cool combo is Broodmother and Omniknight. Brood just gets close to the enemy and Omni heals her. Most the time they won't suspect it since Brood is invisible in her web. Then she can just auto attack harass

Problem is they will be stomped by any good lane in the first few levels. They will be so badly out-harassed and denied, that the enemy team will have such an advantage landing the combo will effectively do nothing. Tiny needs too many levels too not be solo for later in the game as well.

Rylai+morphling can harrass extrelemely bad as well. Especially if morph stacks a basilius on top of rylai's aura. They have a total of 4 skills to harrass with and zero mana problems.

Decent combo, but against a good lane will not be able to get the kill. You will still have mana problems until level 5, so not invincible. Morph will be able to get good farm though so it is nice, but not the best.

Rylai+Yurnero is a bit overrated. Yurnero+ Rhasta can be much more deadly, yet a little less forgiving on mana.

The reason why CM+jugg is better than SS+jugg is about range. With good casting CM can slow from 1100 range, forcing even ranged enemies to be scared at all times. Hex (which is usually skipped early game) has a range of only 500, while shackle has even less range at 400. Making it obvious whenever the SS+jugg is going for a kill, and allows the enemy to walk away.

One thing that I wonder about but I have never tried myself or seen in action is Bloodseeker+silencer. Silencer focusing on the curse and bloodseeker silencing and damaging on top of it. It could be deadly actually.

You are sticking two carries in the lane for decent harass. You then also force two things: 1) BS is a lower level and forced to spend more then 1 point in bloodrage early, greatly harms his mid-game ganking 2)silencer to put points in CotS (which after numerous remakes is still a very weak skill, that professionals always skip). In addition to the fact that two semi-carries have to split the farm(or have one of the two heroes a useless support).

Another cool combo is Broodmother and Omniknight. Brood just gets close to the enemy and Omni heals her. Most the time they won't suspect it since Brood is invisible in her web. Then she can just auto attack harass

Until the enemy gets sentries, and you get harassed out of the creep lane.

Dota 2 is limited in the "lol annoying combos" but dota has countless ones. It comes down a lot of the times to the exp of the player facing them too. A scrub may think two melee is OP or something but at a higher tier it might be a nother combo.

Ps So offtopic but Fayth you have epic sigs always LOL.

[Beelo]

omni + any invis? tiny bane?
