Shadow Shaman Counters (7.41)
Who counters Shadow Shaman in Dota 2 7.41? Heroes Shadow Shaman is strong against and heroes it struggles against, ranked by win rate over ranked matches.
Shadow Shaman is a lockdown-and-push support whose Shackles + Hex double-disable chains a hero for ages, and whose Mass Serpent Wards shred buildings. He dominates immobile, low-escape heroes: Timbersaw (59.6%), Tinker (59.3%) and Nature's Prophet (58.8%) get chained to death. He's countered by illusion/summon armies and scalers that ignore single-target lock: Spectre (43.7%), Meepo (45.5%) and Phantom Lancer (45.6%) bring too many bodies for two disables to handle. Draft tip: Shadow Shaman is a premium pickoff + push pick into single-target-reliant drafts; he's weaker into illusion/summon comps and 40-minute hard-carries.
