Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Sniper wins the Sniper vs Winter Wyvern matchup: Sniper beats Winter Wyvern in 52.63% of 1,997 ranked matches.
Landing a Winter's Curse on a well-positioned Sniper is a huge risk for Winter Wyvern. She often has to overextend deep into the fight, making herself an easy target before she can even cast the ultimate. Beyond that specific interaction, Sniper's incredible attack range allows him to sit far behind his own team and attack her allies, frequently from outside the reach of her other abilities. While Cold Embrace can stall for time against his physical damage, Sniper can simply switch targets or use Shrapnel to control the space. He forces Winter Wyvern to constantly be the one taking a positional risk to have an impact on the fight.
