Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Tinker wins the Shadow Demon vs Tinker matchup: Tinker beats Shadow Demon in 54.61% of 152 ranked matches.
Controlling the map against a Tinker is a constant struggle. His ability to pressure multiple lanes and farm so quickly often forces Shadow Demon's team onto the back foot, trying to react. In a direct fight, however, the tables can turn. A well-timed Disruption can save a core from Tinker's entire burst combo, buying crucial time to re-engage. Demonic Purge is also a huge problem for Tinker; the powerful slow makes it incredibly difficult for him to get away once he's jumped on. Even if he isn't killed immediately, his window to Rearm and blink to safety becomes much smaller with Shadow Demon on the field.
