Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Wraith King wins the Mars vs Wraith King matchup: Wraith King beats Mars in 59.69% of 841 ranked matches.
Trying to control the map against Wraith King is a nightmare for Mars. Committing Arena of Blood to kill Wraith King is a huge tempo loss, taking Mars's best teamfight spell off the table for a long cooldown without securing a real kill. This opens a massive window for the opposing team to farm, push, or take Roshan. The problem is Reincarnation. Mars is built around isolating and bursting a key target inside his ultimate, but Wraith King's second life completely short-circuits that plan. He dies, his team cleans up a distracted Mars, and then he stands back up to finish the fight.
This dynamic forces Mars to play scared. He can't confidently initiate on Wraith King, which means the skeleton king is free to front-line and create space for his own team. Mars has to play perfectly, hoping to catch a support or find a way to use Spear of Mars to separate the team before committing Arena. Meanwhile, the Wraith King player knows this and can play aggressively, often walking right at Mars to dare him into wasting his ultimate. This pressure makes it very difficult for Mars to dictate the pace of the game the way he wants to.
