Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Necrophos wins the Beastmaster vs Necrophos matchup: Necrophos beats Beastmaster in 56.59% of 15,042 ranked matches.
Controlling the map with an army of summons becomes a huge liability against Necrophos. Beastmaster's whole game plan of applying pressure with boars and dominated creeps backfires, as each unit becomes a source of health and mana sustain for Necrophos via Death Pulse. This allows him to farm faster and stay on the map longer, completely stalling out Beastmaster's tempo. Heartstopper Aura passively weakens the entire zoo, making pushes less effective. Even with a good Primal Roar initiation, Necrophos can often survive and use Ghost Shroud to negate the follow-up physical damage. A single Reaper's Scythe on a key target then turns the fight and stalls the game even further.
