Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Wraith King wins the Bristleback vs Wraith King matchup: Wraith King beats Bristleback in 52.25% of 1,690 ranked matches.
Forcing Bristleback to face you is the name of the game, and Wraith King is good at it. His stun holds Bristleback in place for crits, which can overwhelm the passive regeneration and tankiness. While Bristleback wants to run around in a long fight stacking Quill Sprays, Wraith King’s goal is simpler: stun, kill, and then force a second fight with Reincarnation. This can drain all of Bristleback’s mana and momentum. We haven't seen them run into each other much lately, so things could shake out differently.
