Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Nyx Assassin wins the Abaddon vs Nyx Assassin matchup: Nyx Assassin beats Abaddon in 51.89% of 397 ranked matches.
Playing for objectives gets difficult when your team's designated savior is constantly out of mana. The matchup often revolves around Nyx Assassin repeatedly using Mana Burn on Abaddon, depleting his small resource pool. An Abaddon without mana cannot cast Aphotic Shield to dispel Impale or use Mist Coil to help an ally survive. This gives Nyx Assassin free rein to execute his Vendetta combos across the map. Even when the shield is used, its explosive damage can trigger Nyx's Spiked Carapace, stunning Abaddon or his allies. Abaddon can save himself with Borrowed Time, but by then he's often unable to help anyone else.
