Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Chaos Knight wins the Chaos Knight vs Primal Beast matchup: Chaos Knight beats Primal Beast in 53.33% of 1,935 ranked matches.
Dealing with a Primal Beast means Chaos Knight's Phantasm illusions get cleared out fast by Trample, which is a major source of his damage. Primal Beast is also naturally durable with Uproar, making him a very poor target for Chaos Knight's single-target burst. This forces the Chaos Knight to play more carefully, using Reality Rift to isolate a softer target on the edge of the fight instead of man-fighting the frontline. The outcome really depends on who gets the better initiation. If Primal Beast lands a good Onslaught into Pulverize on Chaos Knight, CK is finished. If Chaos Knight catches anyone else first, Primal Beast often can't save them.
