Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Ancient Apparition wins the Ancient Apparition vs Morphling matchup: Ancient Apparition beats Morphling in 56.90% of 297 ranked matches.
Trying to burst down a Morphling often feels impossible as he shifts into Strength, but Ancient Apparition makes it look easy. The entire matchup revolves around Ice Blast. Morphling’s whole survival plan is to gain a massive health pool on demand when he gets focused. Ancient Apparition's ultimate completely shuts that down, preventing any health gain whatsoever. Once that debuff lands, Morphling can’t escape death by tanking up, and he becomes incredibly vulnerable to being shattered. Even outside of that, Cold Feet and Ice Vortex make it much harder for him to find a good position or escape a bad one.
