Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Abaddon wins the Abaddon vs Ember Spirit matchup: Abaddon beats Ember Spirit in 54.52% of 3,366 ranked matches.
Picking a defensive hero to counter an enemy Ember Spirit often leads you to someone like Abaddon. Ember wants to find an isolated target, lock them down with Searing Chains, and unload a quick burst of damage. Abaddon's kit is well-suited to disrupt this plan. Aphotic Shield can instantly remove the root and absorb a significant portion of the incoming damage, allowing the target to reposition or fight back. If Ember Spirit does manage to bring a core low, Abaddon's ultimate can turn the gank completely. Ember can still use his mobility to play around these defensive cooldowns, but Abaddon consistently provides a layer of protection that makes it harder for Ember to snowball.
