Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Broodmother wins the Broodmother vs Medusa matchup: Broodmother beats Medusa in 52.42% of 1,093 ranked matches.
Controlling the pace of the game is what this matchup boils down to. A successful Broodmother will try to end things early, using her spider army to overwhelm lanes and take over the map before Medusa can get her core items. This pressure can starve Medusa and close the game out. However, Medusa’s own abilities make this difficult. Mystic Snake is very effective against a swarm of spiders, providing mana to stay in lane, and later on, Split Shot turns those same spiders into a reliable gold source. If Medusa can survive the initial onslaught, she finds it easy to farm Broodmother’s army and will eventually out-scale, while Stone Gaze provides a hard stop to any late-game aggression.
