Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Arc Warden wins the Arc Warden vs Monkey King matchup: Arc Warden beats Monkey King in 55.62% of 2,501 ranked matches.
Relying on Wukong's Command for teamfight damage gets completely shut down by Magnetic Field. Monkey King needs to stand still and hit things, but Arc Warden can drop a circle of evasion on anyone MK tries to focus. This forces him to either change targets or waste his ultimate entirely. With a Tempest Double available, there are often two of these fields on the map, making it nearly impossible for Monkey King to find a clean fight for his soldiers to attack into. It neutralizes his biggest teamfight contribution.
This advantage extends across the whole game. Monkey King wants to find pickoffs with Tree Dance, but Arc Warden is happy to sit back and farm, protected by Spark Wraiths. If MK does commit, a quick Magnetic Field buys enough time to get help or simply teleport away. Later on, Arc Warden's clone can split push lanes that Monkey King struggles to defend alone. The clone can fight him, kite him with Flux, and generally make his life miserable, forcing him into reactive plays where he's always on the back foot.
