Who counters Shadow Fiend in Dota 2 7.41? Heroes Shadow Fiend is strong against and heroes it struggles against, ranked by win rate over ranked matches.
Shadow Fiend is a glass-cannon mid who stacks Necromastery souls for huge physical right-clicks and a triple Requiem of Souls nuke. He beats immobile, low-pressure mids: Timbersaw (55.5%), Nature's Prophet (54.9%) and Tinker (52.9%) let him free-farm souls and out-damage them. He's hard-countered by heroes that punish his zero-escape frame: Wraith King (41.4%) and Spectre (41.8%) out-tank and walk him down, while Vengeful Spirit (43.9%) swaps and deletes him with negative armor. Draft tip: SF wants lane space into passive mids; never leave him without a save into a dive comp — he is the squishiest carry in the game.
