Beastmaster Counters (7.41f)
Who counters Beastmaster in Dota 2 7.41f? The heroes Beastmaster beats and loses to, ranked by win rate from ranked matches.
Beastmaster is an aggressive offlaner whose Wild Axes and summoned Boar/Hawk dominate lanes, while Primal Roar provides a long single-target lockdown. He's strong into immobile heroes his summons and Roar pin: Timbersaw, Tinker and Nature's Prophet get ganked early. Beastmaster is countered by late scalers and AoE that clear his summons: Medusa out-scales hard, Dawnbreaker and Tidehunter clear his pets, and Bristleback shrugs off his harass. Draft tip: Beastmaster is a strong early-tempo + Roar pick into squishy drafts; close the game before late-scaling carries like Medusa take over.
In Dota 2 7.41f, the heroes that counter Beastmaster hardest are Legion Commander, Lich and Dawnbreaker — Beastmaster wins only 41.3%, 41.8% and 41.9% of ranked matches against them.
Why these counters work
- Lich — Frost Shield turns the summon pack's physical chip damage off, and a Chain Frost released into hero-plus-summons crowds bounces until nothing small survives.
- Wraith King — Primal Roar is one big single-target button — used on Wraith King it buys a few seconds against a hero who plans to die once for free anyway.
- Medusa — Split Shot mows down boars and hawks as a side effect, and spending Primal Roar on the game's tankiest carry is the worst trade the ultimate can make.
