Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Lina wins the Lina vs Queen of Pain matchup: Lina beats Queen of Pain in 50.27% of 71,545 ranked matches.
Picking one of these heroes into the other often creates a duel where the first hero to get disabled dies. Queen of Pain relies on Blink to dodge spells and get into position for her burst. The problem is that Lina's Light Strike Array has a long enough stun duration to guarantee a full combo, and Laguna Blade is a point-and-click finisher that Queen of Pain can't avoid once it's cast. So while Queen of Pain has the mobility to initiate, Lina has the tools to punish that initiation severely if she or her allies react quickly.
Early laning can favor Queen of Pain, as her Blink makes it very difficult for Lina to land a solo kill. As games go on, however, the dynamic can shift. Lina often benefits more from teamfight chaos and allied crowd control, letting her delete Queen of Pain from a safe distance without needing to land the initial stun herself. If Lina gets a few items, her Fiery Soul attack speed can also become a problem for Queen of Pain, who is fragile and doesn't want to stand and trade right-clicks.
