How this matchup plays
Playing against Batrider is a miserable experience for Shadow Demon. Your primary defensive tool, Disruption, is almost completely nullified. When Batrider catches someone with Flaming Lasso, you can try to save them with Disruption, but the target will continue to be dragged. This makes it impossible to reposition or save an ally from the pull. You’re left with slow-acting damage spells that do nothing to stop the initiation. Batrider can secure a kill right in front of you, and there's very little you can do about it. This fundamental mismatch of abilities is also why the two heroes can feel awkward even on the same team; their kits simply don't work together.
