Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Juggernaut wins the Juggernaut vs Shadow Demon matchup: Juggernaut beats Shadow Demon in 58.72% of 453 ranked matches.
Using Blade Fury offensively lets Juggernaut completely ignore most of Shadow Demon's game plan. The spin purges off Soul Catcher and makes him immune to Shadow Poison damage, which are Shadow Demon's primary tools for setting up kills. This means Juggernaut can run directly at him without any real threat of being controlled or burst down. Disruption might save a core from Omnislash, but it won't save Shadow Demon himself from a spinning Juggernaut. Even Demonic Purge’s slow often isn't enough to escape once Juggernaut closes the gap. Shadow Demon is left feeling helpless against an opponent who can simply press a button to invalidate his whole kit.
