Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Nyx Assassin wins the Nyx Assassin vs Techies matchup: Nyx Assassin beats Techies in 54.68% of 865 ranked matches.
Many players assume Techies has an easy time against a squishy hero who roams alone, but the tools are there for the opposite to be true. A careful Nyx Assassin can activate Spiked Carapace before walking into a minefield. Any mine that detonates will then stun Techies from anywhere on the map, often revealing his position and setting him up for a gank. This turns Techies' primary threat into a liability. On top of that, Vendetta lets Nyx scout for mine signs to help his team clear them out safely, relieving map pressure. While a single mistake can still get Nyx killed, he has the specific abilities needed to dismantle the Techies game plan.
