Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Witch Doctor wins the Queen of Pain vs Witch Doctor matchup: Witch Doctor beats Queen of Pain in 58.90% of 2,518 ranked matches.
Blinking aggressively as Queen of Pain becomes incredibly risky against a Witch Doctor. Her plan to burst a target and escape is completely undone by a well-timed Paralyzing Cask. The stun bounces make it difficult to avoid, and once she's locked down, Witch Doctor can easily apply Maledict. This leaves her stranded and taking amplified damage from his whole team. The threat of a follow-up Death Ward often forces Queen of Pain to get a Black King Bar earlier than she wants, slowing down her item progression and reducing her mid-game impact. He fundamentally punishes the exact way she wants to play a fight.
