Strong in most lanes
They lose most of their lanes against every hero, so beating them is not specific to Lifestealer.
- Primal Beast37 lanes+0.33lane score
Why?
Measured over 37 lanes: Primal Beast loses most of his lanes against every hero, so with Lifestealer across he does 0.33 lane-score points worse than usual (80% range +0.19 to +0.47). That is general lane weakness, not a matchup of Lifestealer's.

Divine+ games on one patch. An edge is what happens when a hero is picked into another, not a controlled test; the dots show how strongly a matchup stands out among all counters. In lane an edge counts only what the matchup does beyond both heroes' general lane strength. A reason is shown only where Valve's own spell or item text and the data agree; a rule of the game is a fact from Valve's files, not a measurement.
