Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dark Willow wins the Dark Willow vs Gyrocopter matchup: Dark Willow beats Gyrocopter in 52.94% of 221 ranked matches.
Taking objectives and controlling the map gets very difficult for a Gyrocopter playing against Dark Willow. Gyrocopter wants to get in close and hit everyone with Flak Cannon during teamfights, but Willow's entire kit prevents this. Bramble Maze can root him from long range, breaking his positioning. A well-placed Cursed Crown forces his allies to abandon him or risk a chain stun. Even if Gyrocopter uses Black King Bar to commit, Dark Willow can simply use Terrorize to make him flee, completely wasting his major cooldown. This constant disruption makes it nearly impossible for Gyro to hit his timings or apply pressure effectively.
