Dota 2 - Which Heroes work well with Axe?

Introduction

Axe has always been considered as one of the best laning Dota 2 heroes. Given the right circumstances, this hero is capable of doing insane amounts of damage, especially whenever he is paired up with the right support hero. As you know, the current Dota 2 meta favors the duo-offlane a lot, which is why we've decided to show you which are the best heroes to pick whenever someone gets Axe from your team. Without further ado, let's check them out.

Omniknight

These two heroes are just a nightmare to lane against because they are incredibly annoying. Apart from the obvious fact that Omnit has a Heal, this hero si also very good because he has an Aura that slows the enemies. This works exceptionally well with Axe's second skill, which means that the hero will always be able to get that Call. Once that happens, the heal comes in, and the damage will be just too much to handle.

Dazzle

This is another hero that works very well with Axe. In fact, Dazzle is very similar to Omniknight but he deals more damage, which makes him even better in some situations. Of course, it all depends on the heroes that you have to play against, so keep that in mind.

Gyrocopter

Once the laning stage is over, one of the best core heroes to pair with Axe is Gyrocopter. A good Blink + Call combo means that Gyro will be able to use all of his spells directly on top of his enemies, which will allow him to do absurd amounts of damage. That's why you can often see the two heroes together.
