Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Luna wins the Bristleback vs Luna matchup: Luna beats Bristleback in 51.49% of 1,175 ranked matches.
Trying to burst down Bristleback with physical attacks is often a losing battle for Luna. Even with Moon Glaives bouncing everywhere, Bristleback can turn his back and significantly reduce the damage he takes from her main attack. This allows him to walk into Luna's team and become a major nuisance. By layering Viscous Nasal Goo, he can reduce her armor and slow her down, making it hard for her to kite or run away even with her high base speed.
This advantage is conditional, though. A lone Bristleback is a prime target for Luna’s Eclipse, and the focused magic damage can be enough to kill him if his team isn't nearby to soak up the beams. The matchup often hinges on team positioning. Bristleback wants to force fights where he can get in Luna’s face with his team behind him. Luna’s side needs to create space for her to attack safely or punish Bristleback's aggression with crowd control and her ultimate, which keeps the fight from being too one-sided.
