Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Tidehunter wins the Silencer vs Tidehunter matchup: Tidehunter beats Silencer in 50.78% of 1,530 ranked matches.
Believing Global Silence is a perfect answer to Ravage often leads to trouble. Tidehunter has a surprisingly easy time in this matchup because Kraken Shell automatically purges off Silencer's harassing spells like Arcane Curse and Last Word. This makes the laning phase much more comfortable for him than for other heroes. Later in the game, a Tidehunter with a Black King Bar can simply ignore Global Silence and get his Ravage off without issue. Even without BKB, he's so naturally durable that he can often just wait out the silence duration. Silencer struggles to control or burst a hero who can tank his damage and constantly cleanses the debuffs he relies on.
