Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Dazzle wins the Dark Willow vs Dazzle matchup: Dazzle beats Dark Willow in 52.41% of 14,445 ranked matches.
Trying to burst a target with Dark Willow's full combo can feel awkward against a Dazzle. Willow wants to stack Cursed Crown and Bedlam to delete a hero quickly, but Dazzle’s Shallow Grave directly counters that plan. The grave gives the target a safe window to survive Willow's damage and either get away or turn the fight with their own team. Even if Dazzle gets caught himself, he can often get the save off on an ally before the stun from Crown lands. This forces Dark Willow to play more around team control with Bramble Maze and Terrorize, as her solo kill potential on key targets is less reliable.
