Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Io wins the Ringmaster vs Io matchup: Io beats Ringmaster in 54.14% of 3,938 ranked matches.
Trying to isolate an enemy with Ringmaster’s control tools can be undone by an Io tethered to the target. The extra movement speed and healing from the Tether connection often give the trapped hero enough durability to survive the initial setup and walk away. This makes it difficult for Ringmaster's team to commit and follow up on his spells. If a target is truly caught, Io can always use Relocate to pull them to safety, forcing Ringmaster to expend his key abilities for no gain. This save potential isn't guaranteed, especially if Io himself is the one caught, but it consistently makes Ringmaster's job of setting up clean kills more complicated.
