Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Ancient Apparition wins the Ancient Apparition vs Treant Protector matchup: Ancient Apparition beats Treant Protector in 56.22% of 8,675 ranked matches.
Believing that Treant's global sustain from Living Armor can save his team from ganks might seem logical, but it's a mistake against an Ancient Apparition. The moment a fight starts, a single Ice Blast hitting the right targets makes Treant Protector's main contribution useless. His whole game plan of keeping cores healthy and topped off during skirmishes is completely disabled. Even if Treant finds a great Overgrowth, his team can't rely on his healing to survive the follow-up burst. This forces a fundamental change in how his team has to play, often leaving them without the sustain they drafted him for and making Ancient Apparition's job much simpler.
