in my experience qop can win the lane very hard in the first 4-5 levels against sf
but when sf gets levels qop of pain can't do shit
Qop used to be my go too pick vs SF, as you always have kill potential and the base damage at the start lets you dominate early cs.
However the more i play SF the more i find it SF favored, especially on radiant. However doesn't dire SF get rekt by qop?
Then people ask why the forum is dying, too many ratkids, already 4 on this thread.
@topic, about the qop matchup I feel like if you're radiant as Sf you can win the matchup if your block was good and you can secure few souls from the first waves, It feels safer because the qop cant really blink highground or she will get rekt by the tower if she fucks up, on the dire side its another thing, qop can easily kill sf at lvl 5, just blink in melee range when you have the advantatge, tank the first raze and right click him to death.

So Fiend of shadows, seems to be King of mid on radiant, however i find im quite weak on the Dire side of matchups, What matchups should he win. one of the more obvious counters to SF mid is picking something like TA, and in low end pubs most shadow fiends can't handle this. However at a pro level, alot of shadow fiends Stomp the TA. So basically, Should an SF win vs a Viper or a qop? or is it radiant dependent? or whats the sitch, give me your thoughts. I'll make a Tally of votes on each matchup, so we can see how people vote.
