How this matchup plays

Struggling to find safe farm will define this matchup for Magnus. He relies on clearing jungle stacks with Empower to get his core items, but this makes him an easy solo target for a roaming Riki. The constant threat of being hunted forces Magnus to play defensively and slows his entire game down. Even if Magnus manages to farm a Blink Dagger, initiating teamfights is incredibly difficult. Riki can drop a Smoke Screen on him, silencing him and preventing any chance of landing a big Reverse Polarity. It’s hard for Magnus to pin down a good target when Riki is perpetually invisible and can easily dodge a Skewer attempt.
