How to win the mid against Pudge as QOP?
Recently I checked out some of the counters of Pudge in DotaBUFF
I found that QOP has 5.31% advantage over Pudge

My idea is when QOP is hooked she can blink away easily
And in the laning phase when Pudge tries to last hit QOP will just harass

But no matter how many games I played QOP to counterpick Pudge I still lose
Why?

My guess is: I'm a noob QOP :(

Don't get hooked. Autoattack pudge, he has no armour so he melts to rightclick. I think you're just way too scared of Pudge. Pudge is actually a really bad hero to mid. He should never win mid, especially against a lane dominator like QOP.

your guess is right probably.
you should be able to blink after hook and then dominate early game with your nukes before he gets meat shield, after that and when he has ult- you need to dodge the hooks with blink. but only in laning phase qop is useful against pudge, later on your ult doesn't do ♥♥♥♥ no more and you can only kite him with the dagger and blink.

MAX SKILL 1 AND USE BLINK TO ESCAPE AFTER BEING HOOKED

linkins spere. it blocks his ult. any one who buys linkins vs pudge auto beats pudge for the rest of the game. then as her get lifesteal and lifesteal off the pudge.

do not do crappy items like euls or intelligence items ect. pudge loses to right clicks lifesteal and most importantly linkins.

if pudge gets urn to pop the bubble. by that time you would of blinked out if he hooked you. u win eeither way. but with linkins is enough hp to tank his combo and out dps him with your dagger that does dps over time. further out dps him with right click and/or a bloodthorn. he won't ever win 1v1 past mid game. assuming you countered him as i mentioned. only way is if his team is super fed lots of cc aswell.

but over all qop is a trashy pick that loses the early game to most hard carries she lanes against, and she isn't nearly as strong as them later on in the match.

but with pudge he is also a pick not that great later on, she does is moderate against him, and will win every time if she gets just a linkins. assuming no other factors are present.

The ♥♥♥♥ are you talking about? urn doesn't trigger linkens.

qop shines at early-mid game thanks to his scream and sonic wave nuke, but later on as you said she isn't nearly as strong as the others.

Why would Pudge even get a Dagon?
It'll maybe happen in pubs...
