Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Anti-Mage wins the Anti-Mage vs Templar Assassin matchup: Anti-Mage beats Templar Assassin in 51.33% of 7,156 ranked matches.
Playing as Templar Assassin against Anti-Mage is a race against time. Her entire playstyle of blocking damage with Refraction is challenged by Mana Break. Every exchange drains her small mana pool, making it harder to refresh the defensive charges she needs to survive physical damage. Without mana for Refraction, she's one of the easiest heroes to burst down. Anti-Mage's passive magic resistance from Counterspell also slightly reduces the effectiveness of her Psionic Traps, making it tougher for her to set up kills from invisibility.
Early on, a good Templar Assassin can use Psi Blades to control the lane and build a lead. Her goal is to get her core damage items and create so much pressure that the game ends before Anti-Mage comes online. The matchup balance shifts once Anti-Mage gets his Manta Style. He can then hunt her aggressively, using Blink to initiate and Manta Style to instantly remove the armor reduction from her Meld strike. An out-of-position Templar Assassin quickly finds her mana gone and has no reliable way to escape him.
