Razor is picked in 6.2% of Very High matches, 6.5% of High and 6.8% of Normal, and wins 50% / 50.9% / 50.1%. Static Link steals attack damage from an enemy hero and lets Razor attack while moving, Plasma Field damages and slows harder at its edge, Storm Surge strikes back with lightning when he is attacked or targeted, and Eye of the Storm strikes the weakest enemy nearby and lowers its armor. He is an early-game hero: his team gains more XP in 61.8% of games before minute 15, and he wins 56.2% of games under 25 minutes, 50.6% at 25–50 and 48.6% past 50.
Countered by MorphlingMorphling loses the lane badly: his team gains more XP in only 30.7% of games before minute 15. Razor's Static Link and Plasma Field punish him while he has few levels, so the counter starts later.
Razor's plan is to link a carry and out-hit it, and Morphling doesn't stay in place for it. Waveform makes him invulnerable and carries him out of the link's range, and Attribute Shift moves his points into strength, so he is rarely the lowest-health enemy that Eye of the Storm strikes. Adaptive Strike stuns and knocks Razor back from range, and its burst is spell damage, which Static Link, stealing only attack damage, doesn't touch. The XP-gain share evens out at 49.8% between minutes 15 and 35.
Morphling takes over after minute 35: his team gains more XP in 59.3% of games. He wins 51.6% of 25–50 minute games (2,154 games) and 55% past 50 (367 games); only the 85 games under 25 minutes go Razor's way, with Morphling at 43.5%. The edge is largest in High (+12.74), with +7.34 in Very High and +6.59 in Normal. Morphling wins 52.1% / 53.2% / 50.7% (Very High / High / Normal) against Razor, against his usual 48.4% / 47.7% / 47.5%.
Best teammate: AlchemistTheir team gains more XP in 51.9% of games before minute 15, but the pair wins only 38% of the 50 games under 25 minutes: Alchemist needs time to farm.
Acid Spray lowers the armor of every enemy in an area, and Eye of the Storm keeps lowering it on the target it strikes, so both heroes' physical damage grows together. Corrosive Weaponry slows the target they focus, and with Aghanim's Shard, Berserk Potion dispels Razor and gives him attack speed, movement speed and regeneration. Their team gains more XP in 52.6% of games between minutes 15 and 35.
This pair wins long games: 49.9% at 25–50 minutes (1,190 games) and 57.6% past 50 (264 games), with an XP-gain share of 46.6% after minute 35. The pairing is strongest in Very High (+11.75), with +9.1 in High and +4.25 in Normal. Alchemist is weak in this patch on his own (46.8% / 46.6% / 47.2%), and with Razor the pair wins 52.7% / 52% / 49.5% (Very High / High / Normal).
Based on 2,082,000 public ranked matches of patch 7.41, played 11–25 October 2026. Advantage is the win-rate difference from what the two heroes' own win rates predict, times two (+6 is about 3 win-rate points), weighted over the skill brackets.
