Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Muerta wins the Monkey King vs Muerta matchup: Muerta beats Monkey King in 56.46% of 294 ranked matches.
Committing to a kill on Muerta is a losing proposition for Monkey King. His entire damage plan revolves around building Jingu Mastery stacks and overwhelming a target with physical burst. Muerta completely invalidates this by activating Pierce the Veil, making herself immune to all physical attacks right as he goes in. Even Wukong's Command is nullified, as his soldiers can't touch her. Beyond her ultimate, The Calling can destroy the trees Monkey King uses for positioning, knocking him down into a silence and leaving him vulnerable.
This dynamic forces Monkey King to play reactively around Muerta's cooldowns. He can't reliably jump on her or initiate teamfights, as she can turn his aggression into a wasted commitment. He often has to wait for his team to bait out Pierce the Veil before he can safely use his own ultimate. Muerta, meanwhile, can play much more freely, using her spells to zone Monkey King, prevent his scouting, and kite him from a safe distance until his team is forced to collapse around him.
