Chaos Knight (CK) Counter Picks — 7.41f
Who counters Chaos Knight (CK) in Dota 2 7.41f? Counter picks and matchups for Chaos Knight, ranked by win rate from ranked matches.
Chaos Knight is an illusion carry whose Phantasm spawns durable clones, Chaos Bolt stuns, and Reality Rift shreds armor to focus a target. He shreds single-target heroes who can't deal with his clones: Tinker, Nature's Prophet and Elder Titan get overwhelmed. CK is countered by AoE and pure damage that ignore illusions: Tidehunter Ravages his clones, Phantom Lancer out-illusions him, and Phoenix or Naga Siren bring too much AoE. Draft tip: Chaos Knight is a brutal mid-game illusion carry into single-target drafts; he's neutralized by AoE clear (Tide, Phoenix, Sand King).
In Dota 2 7.41f, the heroes that counter Chaos Knight hardest are Phantom Lancer, Meepo and Dragon Knight — Chaos Knight wins only 44.7%, 46.9% and 47.1% of ranked matches against them.
