Tidehunter (Tide) Counter Picks — 7.41f
Who counters Tidehunter (Tide) in Dota 2 7.41f? Counter picks and matchups for Tidehunter, ranked by win rate from ranked matches.
Tidehunter is a tanky initiator whose Ravage — a screen-wide stun — is one of the best teamfight ultimates in the game, backed by Kraken Shell magic resistance and a huge HP pool. He dominates clumped, magic-reliant drafts: Gyrocopter, Nature's Prophet and Mars all fold to a Blink-Ravage wombo. Tide is countered by spread-out durability and break/sustain: Elder Titan, Necrophos, Slark and Lifestealer survive or out-last his combo. Draft tip: Tidehunter is a top-tier initiator into grouped, squishy line-ups; he's lower-impact into spread-out, break-heavy, or sustain-stacked drafts.
In Dota 2 7.41f, the heroes that counter Tidehunter hardest are Juggernaut, Outworld Destroyer and Lifestealer — Tidehunter wins only 44.0%, 44.3% and 45.6% of ranked matches against them.
