How this matchup plays

Fighting into Wraith King is all about resource management, and that’s a fight Medusa is built to lose. Her survival and damage are tied to her mana pool through Mana Shield. Killing Wraith King the first time takes a significant amount of damage, which translates directly to a loss of her own effective health. When he comes back with Reincarnation at full strength, Medusa is often left depleted and unable to fight him a second time, let alone the rest of his team.

This usually plays out with Wraith King forcing fights in the mid-game. He can walk straight at Medusa's team, creating the exact kind of durable frontline chaos that she herself would want to play behind. By forcing her to deal with him, he absorbs the attention and resources she needs to stay safe. Medusa's goal is to farm until she's overwhelmingly strong, but Wraith King's game plan is to deny her that time by repeatedly challenging her mana pool before she's ready.
