At first I was kinda skeptical because Mao autoattacks when you use his W, so some of the effect duration would be wasted by overlapping slow with root. Then I realized this is actually a good thing, since it means the enemy is slowed for that crucial second after the root wears off, making it easier to hit the next ability and maybe even for the damn saplings to get a change to explode for once.
