Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Warlock wins the Puck vs Warlock matchup: Warlock beats Puck in 59.13% of 367 ranked matches.
Jumping into a fight as Puck feels awful when Warlock is on the other side. Your entire initiation combo gets punished by Fatal Bonds, which takes the damage from Waning Rift and spreads it around his team. If you commit your Illusory Orb to start a fight, Warlock can simply drop Chaotic Offering on your head. You can dodge the stun with a well-timed Phase Shift, but you're still left deep in enemy territory with a Golem hitting you. A patient Warlock can also wait for you to appear and use Upheaval, completely trapping a hero who relies on mobility to survive. It's hard for Puck to ever find a good opening.
