Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.

Trying to lock down a target as Dragon Knight can feel frustrating against a good Winter Wyvern. Her Cold Embrace often negates the stun follow-up, saving an ally and wasting your initiation. In return, Winter's Curse isn't as devastating when its main target is Dragon Knight himself; his natural tankiness from Dragon's Blood means he can frequently survive being attacked by his own team. While in Dragon Form, he can also fight back against Arctic Burn's kiting instead of being completely neutralized. Each hero has a solid answer for the other's primary plan, which usually results in a standoff where neither can build a real advantage.
