Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.

Thinking Guardian Angel hard counters Epicenter is a common mistake. In practice, the cooldown difference is often the deciding factor. Sand King can threaten fights with his ultimate far more often than Omniknight can respond with his. This dynamic forces Omniknight into a reactive posture, holding his spell for the perfect moment while the Sand King player can try to bait it out or simply attack when it's down. Outside of that direct ultimate trade, Omniknight can save a key target from a Burrowstrike stun with a well-timed Heavenly Grace. However, a patient Sand King can still find pickoffs between these saves, making the outcome depend heavily on which player has better timing.
