Trying to channel Fiend's Grip on a key target feels uncomfortable against a Bloodseeker. His Blood Rite is a very large, long-range silence that can easily interrupt Bane’s ultimate from a safe distance. This forces the Bane player to be much more careful with positioning, often having to wait for Blood Rite to be used before committing his own spell. While a good Bane can still find opportunities or use Nightmare to play around it, the constant threat of that interruption is often enough to give Bloodseeker’s team a small but meaningful edge in fights. The vision from Thirst also makes it harder for low-health targets to escape after Bane weakens them.
