Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lion wins the Lion vs Terrorblade matchup: Lion beats Terrorblade in 51.52% of 10,195 ranked matches.
Picking a support to deal with Terrorblade often brings Lion to mind. His kit is designed to pin down one hero, which is what you need to prevent Metamorphosis from taking over a fight. With Hex and Earth Spike, Lion can hold Terrorblade still for his team to burst before he can use Sunder. Mana Drain is also a significant problem for Terrorblade, whose small mana pool means he can't afford to lose any if he wants to use his spells to fight or escape.
The matchup is a race of timings. Lion has a window to make plays after getting a Blink Dagger but before Terrorblade finishes a Black King Bar. During this period, Lion can initiate from fog and set up kills to control Terrorblade's farm. If Terrorblade survives that mid-game pressure and completes his BKB, Lion loses most of his direct threat against him. Terrorblade's goal is to farm safely and hit that timing, while Lion's team has to capitalize before he does.
