Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Venomancer wins the Primal Beast vs Venomancer matchup: Venomancer beats Primal Beast in 53.93% of 382 ranked matches.
Spreading slows and damage-over-time seems like the perfect way to kite Primal Beast, but it rarely plays out that way. The moment Primal Beast begins his Onslaught charge, he becomes spell immune, ignoring slows from Poison Gale or a field of Plague Wards. He arrives on top of Venomancer at full health and can immediately use Pulverize to finish the kill. Outside of ganks, Primal Beast can also clear entire nests of wards with Trample, completely negating Venomancer's pushing and vision game. Veno is too squishy to survive the initial lockdown and has no built-in escape mechanism to get away from the charge in the first place.
