Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Clockwerk wins the Clockwerk vs Shadow Demon matchup: Clockwerk beats Shadow Demon in 52.00% of 100 ranked matches.
Getting hooked as Shadow Demon is usually a death sentence. His main defensive tool, Disruption, is often too slow to cast before Clockwerk traps him in Power Cogs. Even if he manages to banish himself, Clockwerk can wait out the duration inside the cogs and finish the job with Battery Assault. This dynamic makes Shadow Demon a prime target throughout the game. Clockwerk can use Rocket Flare to scout him out, making it very difficult for the fragile support to find safe positioning. Without a way to reliably survive the initial jump, Shadow Demon struggles to have any impact against a team with an active Clockwerk.
