Bane Counters (7.41)
Who counters Bane in Dota 2 7.41? Heroes Bane is strong against and heroes it struggles against, ranked by win rate over ranked matches.
Bane is a lane bully and single-target lockdown support whose Fiend's Grip and Nightmare remove one hero from a fight entirely. He's strongest into immobile casters and farm-reliant mids — Tinker (56.3%), Mars (56.2%) and Nature's Prophet (56.0%) all get disabled out of the game at the worst moment. Bane is weakest into heroes that ignore single-target control: Naga Siren (42.9%) Songs through his setup, while Spectre (43.1%) and Lycan (43.3%) bring too many bodies/illusions for one Grip to matter. Draft tip: take Bane to neutralize a key enemy core; avoid him as your only disable into illusion or summon-heavy drafts.
