Brewmaster Counters & Build

Medusa 92 matches Low data

−2.7%

WhyMedusa's Split Shot and bouncing Mystic Snake naturally threaten all three Primal Split warriors at once rather than being bogged down by a single target. Additionally, Stone Gaze severely punishes the melee Brewlings by forcing them to look away or become petrified and suffer bonus physical damage. Mana Shield also allows Medusa to easily absorb the burst and damage over time from Thunder Clap and Cinder Brew.

Anti-Mage 307 matches Low data

−2.6%

WhyAnti-Mage heavily wins the lane early because Mana Break rapidly depletes Brewmaster's mana pool, limiting his ability to cast Thunder Clap or Cinder Brew and trigger Drunken Brawler's Brewed Up state. Without sufficient mana to reliably cast Primal Split, Brewmaster is easily hindered by Persecutor's slow and left vulnerable to high damage from Mana Void.

Spirit Breaker 395 matches Low data

−1.9%

WhySpirit Breaker's Bulldoze provides movement speed and status resistance that help mitigate the heavy slows applied by Thunder Clap and Cinder Brew. Furthermore, the abrupt initiation and chain-stunning from Charge of Darkness and Nether Strike can lock down Brewmaster, making it difficult for him to safely activate Primal Split.

Slark 308 matches Low data

−1.8%

WhySlark establishes an early advantage in the lane by using Dark Pact to purge the slows and damage over time from Thunder Clap and Cinder Brew. In extended melee engagements, Slark consistently saps Brewmaster's attributes and movement speed with Essence Shift and Saltwater Shiv, while active Shadow Dance grants detection immunity that lets him strike freely even around the Earth Brewling's True Sight.

Queen of Pain 299 matches Low data

−1.4%

WhyQueen of Pain can use Blink to easily kite Brewmaster's melee-range threat and disengage from Thunder Clap or dangerous Primal Split brewlings. Her heavy magical and pure area burst from Scream of Pain and Sonic Wave bypasses the evasion of Storm Brawler stance and can damage multiple Primal Split elements at once, while Shadow Strike's long-lasting slow heavily hinders Brewmaster's approach.
