Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Chaos Knight wins the Axe vs Chaos Knight matchup: Chaos Knight beats Axe in 52.04% of 1,516 ranked matches.
Controlling the map becomes extremely difficult for Chaos Knight when Axe is on the other team. The whole strategy of using Phantasm illusions to farm, split-push, or fight is severely punished. A single Berserker's Call forces the real hero and all his copies to attack Axe, triggering a devastating number of Counter Helix spins. This pure damage melts illusions almost instantly and puts the real Chaos Knight in danger. With his primary source of damage and threat neutralized so easily, it's hard for Chaos Knight to have an impact in teamfights, giving Axe's team a much clearer path to taking objectives and winning engagements.
