I'm curious - have any of you set up for a specific lane combination where your abilities would synergize well and allow you to dominate your lane? Post them here.

I'll share one of my experiences: The other night a friend of mine wanted to try something he saw in a progame...

He picked Morphling I went OmniKnight. Any time a hero got too close during our laning phase, he would wave over them, and I would immediately heal. As we were laned against a Viper and a Venge (both squishy) - it would generally give us a kill.

By the end of the laning phase we had dominated our lane (I was something like 3/0/1), and completely shutdown farm for Viper and Venge.

What about you fellow doobs?

Windrunner/Vengeful Spirit - Shackle/powershot followed by Magic Missle is a ton of stun and damage early levels.

Trying to think of more...

Yeah. That would kinda suck. Though it requires WR being able to land her shackle. Not all of them can.

I laned once against a Sand King Venge combo. It was kinda the same thing. If you tried to farm, SK would get off his Stun and Venge would follow in. Frustrating doesn't even begin to describe that game.

What about Zeus/Kunka? Frigging chain lighting plus that god-damn sword-shot means you get no where close to the creeps as a melee.

Slar/Lion is pretty nasty, as is Dazzle/Juggernaut.

Slar/Lion - Lion Earth Spike's, Slardar Crushes = GEE GEE

Dazzle/Juggernaut - Dazzle Poison Touches someone, Jugg spins = WAT

A favorite of mine for crushing pubs is Lina/Sven. Sven's hammer makes Lina's stun a 100% hit, followed up by lots of burst. Pretty much any reliable stun/slow + a hero who has an ability balanced around being hard to land rocks.

I played a few ES/Jugg lanes with a buddy of mine and it worked out very well.

To be honest I think ES/any carry works well. You can't beat 3 long slows in a row with the ability to completely block off a path, except with black hole.

Yeah totally true. With Jugg tho ES Q and my Q was a guaranteed kill if he blocked them into a corner at early levels.
