Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Underlord wins the Underlord vs Chaos Knight matchup: Underlord beats Chaos Knight in 51.23% of 4,343 ranked matches.
Facing down a full Phantasm assault becomes much more manageable with an Underlord on your team. Pit of Malice is a great tool for rooting Chaos Knight's illusions in place, preventing them from surrounding and overwhelming a single target. This buys crucial time for your team to clear them out. At the same time, Atrophy Aura lowers the base physical damage of everything caught inside it, which means Chaos Knight and all his copies hit for less. This combination can disrupt the instant burst he relies on to secure kills.
The matchup often hinges on cooldowns and positioning. A smart Chaos Knight will try to bait out the Pit of Malice before committing his ultimate, or he'll look for a pickoff on a hero who has strayed too far from Underlord's protective aura. Getting a Black King Bar lets him ignore the root, but he still has to deal with the damage reduction. Underlord’s job is to stick with his team and be ready to drop his spells when Chaos Knight goes in. If Underlord is out of position, CK can still do his job effectively.
