Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Dark Willow wins the Dark Willow vs Tiny matchup: Dark Willow beats Tiny in 54.48% of 402 ranked matches.
Trying to execute his standard burst combo on a support is central to Tiny's game plan. Dark Willow disrupts this perfectly. By activating Shadow Realm, she can become untargetable and immune to damage, causing Tiny's entire Toss and Avalanche sequence to fail completely. This not only saves her life but also wastes his valuable mana and cooldowns, stopping his gank in its tracks. Even if Tiny gets the jump, her Cursed Crown can stun him mid-combo, turning his aggression into an opportunity for her team to kill him instead.
This dynamic forces the Tiny player to be much more cautious. He can no longer count on easy pickoffs to build momentum and has to find other targets or wait for Dark Willow to misplay. In teamfights, she can use Bramble Maze to zone him out or lock him down if he tries to blink onto her backline. The pressure is on Tiny to perfectly time his initiation around her cooldowns, whereas Dark Willow has multiple ways to reactively shut him down, giving her a consistent advantage in their direct interactions.
