Brewmaster vs Medusa

How this matchup plays

Clearing out the Primal Split spirits is easier for Medusa than for most heroes. Her Split Shot damages all three at once, often cutting Brewmaster’s ultimate short before he can get his full combo off. On the flip side, trying to focus Medusa herself during the split is difficult because Mana Shield makes her exceptionally durable against the spirits' damage types. She can usually survive the duration and turn the fight. While Brewmaster can always choose to go on a different target, Medusa’s ability to diminish his primary teamfight contribution gives her a small but consistent edge in late-game scenarios where he can’t simply avoid her.
