Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Medusa wins the Medusa vs Timbersaw matchup: Medusa beats Timbersaw in 62.57% of 179 ranked matches.
Picking Timbersaw into a Medusa is a draft decision that often leads to a rough game. Timbersaw’s whole game plan revolves around spell-based burst, but Medusa’s Mana Shield absorbs that pure and magic damage very effectively. More importantly, a single Mystic Snake can drain his entire mana pool, leaving him unable to cast anything or use Timber Chain to escape. A Timbersaw with no mana is a liability. Later on, any attempt to chain into a fight makes him a perfect target for Stone Gaze, where he’ll get completely locked down and blown up. He struggles to threaten her in lane and has almost no way to kill her in a teamfight.
