Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker wins the Bloodseeker vs Riki matchup: Bloodseeker beats Riki in 55.18% of 415 ranked matches.
Getting low on health as Riki is where Bloodseeker takes over the fight. Riki relies on slipping away with invisibility after an engagement, but Bloodseeker's Thirst completely nullifies that plan by giving vision and movement speed against wounded targets. This means Riki can't escape reliably once he's taken a bit of damage. To make matters worse, a well-placed Bloodrite silences him, cutting off access to Blink Strike or Tricks of the Trade. This forces Riki to either commit fully and risk dying or back off much earlier than he'd like, often unable to secure his kills and making his usual hit-and-run tactics much less effective.
