Treant Protector vs Winter Wyvern

How this matchup plays

Drafting one of these heroes into the other is rarely a decision made to counter your opponent, as they tend to trade abilities without one gaining a clear edge. Winter Wyvern can save an ally from Treant Protector's initial damage with Cold Embrace, but she is as vulnerable to an Overgrowth initiation as anyone else. On the other side, Living Armor provides global sustain that can be annoying, but Wyvern's team can often focus targets down regardless. This lack of a strong advantage goes both ways, as they often struggle to coordinate well on the same team. The game usually comes down to which hero lands their big ultimate, Overgrowth or Winter's Curse, more effectively in a key fight.
