Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Necrophos wins the Jakiro vs Necrophos matchup: Necrophos beats Jakiro in 52.76% of 57,536 ranked matches.
Laning against Necrophos as Jakiro is a slow drain on resources and patience. The constant damage from Heartstopper Aura is difficult for a slow hero like Jakiro to escape, wearing him down over time. His own spell combos rely on damage-over-time effects, which Necrophos can often sustain through with Death Pulse healing. The main problem comes from how their kits interact in teamfights. Jakiro's spells are great at getting multiple enemies low, but not at finishing them off quickly. This creates the perfect scenario for Necrophos to land a decisive Reaper's Scythe. It also means Jakiro himself becomes a prime target for the scythe after taking passive damage throughout a fight.
