Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Jakiro wins the Jakiro vs Shadow Demon matchup: Jakiro beats Shadow Demon in 52.48% of 303 ranked matches.
Controlling the map's tempo often comes down to a stalemate in this matchup. Jakiro is built to group up, shove waves with his spells, and apply constant pressure to towers with Liquid Fire. However, Shadow Demon is exceptionally good at disrupting this exact strategy. He can stall pushes indefinitely by clearing creep waves from a safe distance with Shadow Poison stacks. His Disruption is also a perfect tool for saving a tower or an ally that Jakiro tries to lock down with Ice Path. In teamfights, Shadow Demon can use Demonic Purge to slow Jakiro and punish his poor positioning, but he and his team still have to contend with the sheer amount of area damage from Macropyre.
