Primal Beast Counters (7.41f)
Who counters Primal Beast in Dota 2 7.41f? The heroes Primal Beast beats and loses to, ranked by win rate from ranked matches.
Primal Beast is a tanky initiator whose Onslaught charges and stuns, Trample tanks him up, and Pulverize locks down a single hero with a brutal AoE stun. It's strong into immobile heroes its charge catches: Nature's Prophet, Chen and Tinker get run over. Primal Beast is countered by scalers and sustain that out-last its burst: Wraith King, Lifestealer and Underlord survive and overtake it, while Bloodseeker chases it down. Draft tip: Primal Beast is a strong durable initiator into squishy drafts; it's weaker into sustain and late-scaling hard-carries that out-last Pulverize.
In Dota 2 7.41f, the heroes that counter Primal Beast hardest are Wraith King, Outworld Destroyer and Bloodseeker — Primal Beast wins only 41.3%, 43.5% and 43.9% of ranked matches against them.
