Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.

Trying to land a perfect Chaotic Offering feels awful when the target simply won't die. Warlock’s teamfight control depends on that initial stun and golem pressure, but Troll Warlord can often activate Battle Trance to survive the burst. Once he’s through the stun, he's free to fight back. His high attack speed from Fervor lets him tear through the golem very quickly, effectively neutralizing Warlock's biggest contribution. While a well-placed Upheaval can still be a problem, Troll’s ability to shrug off the initial impact and turn the tables gives him a consistent, if not overwhelming, advantage in teamfights. Fatal Bonds is less effective when Troll can out-sustain the damage.
