Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Phantom Assassin wins the Phantom Assassin vs Clockwerk matchup: Phantom Assassin beats Clockwerk in 51.85% of 6,378 ranked matches.
Getting caught by a Hookshot can feel like a death sentence for Phantom Assassin. Clockwerk's entire kit is designed to isolate and disable a single target, and his Battery Assault interrupts her from attacking or blinking away. His cogs can trap her, burn her mana, and set her up for his team to finish off. This lockdown is a direct answer to a hero who wants to jump in and out of fights freely.
However, the matchup is a coin flip because Phantom Assassin has the tools to completely reverse this scenario. A well-timed Phantom Strike can let her escape Power Cogs, and Blur's evasion makes her surprisingly durable against Clockwerk's physical damage. The game often comes down to item timings. Once PA has a Black King Bar, she can ignore his control and burst him down. Conversely, a Clockwerk with a Blade Mail can turn her own damage against her, making it very risky for her to commit.
