Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Keeper of the Light wins the Keeper of the Light vs Rubick matchup: Keeper of the Light beats Rubick in 55.41% of 1,857 ranked matches.
Stealing a fully charged Illuminate feels like a huge win, but it often puts Rubick in a bad spot. Keeper of the Light can channel his wave from the safety of the trees, completely out of vision. For Rubick to use a stolen Illuminate, he has to stand still and channel out in the open, making him an easy target. If Rubick does try to get close for a better steal or a lift, Keeper of the Light can simply knock him away with Blinding Light. While a well-timed steal of Solar Bind or Blinding Light can be impactful, the fundamental risk Rubick takes to use KOTL's own spells against him gives the old man a consistent, if small, advantage.
