Warlock Counter Picks — 7.41f
Who counters Warlock in Dota 2 7.41f? Counter picks and matchups for Warlock, ranked by win rate from ranked matches.
Warlock is a teamfight support whose Fatal Bonds links enemies to share damage, Upheaval is a ramping AoE slow, and Chaotic Offering summons a massive Golem that stuns and tanks. He's strong into clumped, immobile heroes his Bonds and Golem punish: Tinker, Timbersaw and Mars get bonded and crushed. Warlock is countered by spread-out heroes and burst that beat his slow setup: Tidehunter brings competing AoE, while Phoenix, Spectre and Dawnbreaker out-fight his clumped value. Draft tip: Warlock is a premier AoE-teamfight support into grouped drafts; he's weaker into spread-out and burst-heavy line-ups.
In Dota 2 7.41f, the heroes that counter Warlock hardest are Bounty Hunter, Legion Commander and Outworld Destroyer — Warlock wins only 46.3%, 46.5% and 46.6% of ranked matches against them.
