Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Vengeful Spirit wins the Lone Druid vs Vengeful Spirit matchup: Vengeful Spirit beats Lone Druid in 56.65% of 466 ranked matches.
Picking Lone Druid into a Vengeful Spirit forces you to play a much more careful game. The main threat is Nether Swap, which can instantly separate Lone Druid from his Spirit Bear. This leaves the hero exposed and often leads to a quick death, especially if the Druid is caught without his ultimate available. On top of that, Wave of Terror makes the Spirit Bear significantly less tanky by stripping its armor, making it a much more manageable target for her team. While Lone Druid can still be a menace with split pushing, Vengeful Spirit has reliable tools to punish the hero's core mechanic and create kill opportunities throughout the game.
