Vengeful Spirit (VS) Counter Picks — 7.41f
Who counters Vengeful Spirit (VS) in Dota 2 7.41f? Counter picks and matchups for Vengeful Spirit, ranked by win rate from ranked matches.
Vengeful Spirit is a value support whose Magic Missile stuns, Wave of Terror shreds armor, Vengeance Aura buffs allied damage, and Nether Swap saves or snatches a key hero. She's strong into immobile, armor-reliant heroes: Nature's Prophet, Timbersaw and Tinker get stunned and shredded. Vengeful is countered by illusions and scalers her single Swap can't handle: Spectre, Phantom Lancer and Meepo out-body or out-scale, while Wraith King out-tanks. Draft tip: Vengeful Spirit is a premier damage-amp + swap-save support into physical drafts; she's weaker into illusion comps and late-game hard-carries.
In Dota 2 7.41f, the heroes that counter Vengeful Spirit hardest are Phantom Lancer, Wraith King and Spectre — Vengeful Spirit wins only 46.9%, 46.9% and 48.4% of ranked matches against them.
