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

Thinking Refraction makes the lane easy is a common mistake. The real problem for Templar Assassin is Ember Spirit’s Flame Guard. It pops a single Refraction charge and then continues to melt her with magic damage she has no answer for in the early game. This forces TA onto the back foot, delaying her core item timings. As the game progresses, Ember Spirit becomes too slippery to kill. Sleight of Fist lets him dodge Meld strikes and gives him a safe way to apply Searing Chains, holding Templar Assassin in place while his team collapses. She wants to burst a single target, but she can rarely get a clean shot off on him.
