Puck Counter Picks — 7.41f
Who counters Puck in Dota 2 7.41f? Counter picks and matchups for Puck, ranked by win rate from ranked matches.
Puck is a slippery magic-burst mid whose Phase Shift dodges everything and Dream Coil punishes grouped enemies. It beats immobile, telegraphed heroes: Timbersaw, Mars and Shadow Demon can't reliably pin a hero that phases out of every cast. Puck is hard-countered by permanent-presence threats it can't juke: Spectre Haunts in from anywhere, Night Stalker hunts it at night, and Riki ambushes from invisibility. Draft tip: Puck excels into single-target, skillshot mids; it struggles into Spectre, Riki, Night Stalker, and any draft that ignores its slippery positioning.
In Dota 2 7.41f, the heroes that counter Puck hardest are Night Stalker, Riki and Wraith King — Puck wins only 39.7%, 40.0% and 40.1% of ranked matches against them.
