Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.

Thinking you can overwhelm Necrophos with a swarm of spiders is a common mistake. His Heartstopper Aura is constantly active, melting not only Broodmother herself but her entire army of spiderlings before they can do much. Each time he uses Death Pulse, he clears a wave of your pressure while healing himself, making it almost impossible to build a critical mass. Broodmother wants to get in, do damage, and lifesteal, but Ghost Shroud denies her physical burst entirely. This usually buys enough time for him to turn things around, and once she's low, a single Reaper's Scythe is all it takes to finish the job.
