Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Sniper wins the Primal Beast vs Sniper matchup: Sniper beats Primal Beast in 53.12% of 802 ranked matches.
Thinking you can kite Primal Beast with slows is a common trap. His Onslaught charge provides debuff immunity, letting him close huge distances and ignore things like Shrapnel. Once he connects with Sniper, there’s very little the glass cannon can do to survive the follow-up without immediate help from his team. Even if Sniper creates space with Concussive Grenade, Primal Beast can often finish the job with his other abilities. This matchup hasn't been a common sight recently, so the usual patterns might not hold up as well.
How the matchup shifts across skill brackets — Primal Beast's win rate against Sniper in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
