Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Warlock wins the Bane vs Warlock matchup: Warlock beats Bane in 51.65% of 9,214 ranked matches.
Channeling Fiend's Grip on a key target is a high-risk play against Warlock. Chaotic Offering provides an instant stun that will interrupt Bane, and the spawned Golem remains a threat to break the channel again. Fatal Bonds also punishes the single-target focus of Bane's ultimate by distributing damage back onto him and his allies. This forces Bane to play carefully. He can try to get the jump on Warlock before he can react, or hold his ultimate until after the Golems are on the field. Likewise, Warlock needs to save his own ultimate for the right moment. The matchup often comes down to which support gets their key spell off first.
