Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dark Willow wins the Batrider vs Dark Willow matchup: Dark Willow beats Batrider in 56.87% of 888 ranked matches.
Finding map control as Batrider often means getting an early Blink Dagger to start hunting for kills. Dark Willow, however, presents a difficult problem for this game plan. Her Shadow Realm makes her untargetable, allowing her to dodge Flaming Lasso if she reacts quickly enough. Even if Batrider commits with Firefly, a well-placed Bramble Maze or Cursed Crown can stop him in his tracks before he can grab a target. The dynamic forces Batrider to wait for a Black King Bar to ignore her control. Because both heroes have effective tools to disrupt the other's primary goal, the matchup often comes down to who gets the jump and which key items are online.
