Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Night Stalker wins the Dark Seer vs Night Stalker matchup: Night Stalker beats Dark Seer in 52.67% of 3,203 ranked matches.
Drafting Dark Seer into a Night Stalker means you're betting on your positioning. While the two heroes can enable each other on the same team, they create awkward situations when opposed. A Night Stalker who wants to run at a target can get punished by Ion Shell, taking a lot of damage before he even gets close. At the first night, however, Night Stalker is often coming for the offlane where Dark Seer lives. His silence is the main problem, as it completely shuts down the typical Surge escape. This forces Dark Seer to play much more cautiously after sunset, which can disrupt his farm and give Night Stalker's team the initiative.
