Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Slardar wins the Batrider vs Slardar matchup: Slardar beats Batrider in 56.92% of 1,258 ranked matches.
Catching a Slardar is often unreliable because of how he's built and played. He naturally buys items that can dispel Sticky Napalm or even Flaming Lasso, which can completely waste Batrider's initiation. Guardian Sprint also makes him difficult to stack Napalm on, and it lets him turn a gank around by running straight at Batrider. A well-timed Slithereen Crush can interrupt the Lasso channel, leaving Batrider exposed. While Batrider usually has a decent time against melee heroes in lane, Slardar’s ability to survive the initial jump and immediately retaliate with his own lockdown and physical damage means he's a constant threat who can punish an overextension.
