Lone Druid (LD, Bear, Sylla) in Dota 2 7.41: win rate, pick rate, the heroes Lone Druid counters and struggles against, and its best teammates — from recent ranked matches by Batru's AI win-prediction pipeline.
Lone Druid is a two-unit push carry whose Spirit Bear farms and fights as a second hero, snowballing an early item lead into a fast tower siege. He dominates single-target, low-clear heroes: Timbersaw (58.3%), Puck (57.7%) and Doom (57.5%) can't deal with bear + druid pressure. Lone Druid is countered by AoE and split-pressure answers: Underlord (47.1%) zones him, while Techies (48.3%), Winter Wyvern (48.5%) and Spectre (48.8%) punish his push or out-scale. Draft tip: Lone Druid is a vicious early-push carry into low-AoE drafts; close the game on his timing before late-game scalers stabilize.

Lone Druid wants to push fast with his bear and needs the bear protected — he loves shields, mana, and tower-siege partners. He pairs best with babysit and push: Lich (56.9%) shields the bear and slows defenders, while Techies (56.9%) and Wraith King (56.4%) reinforce his siege. Give Lone Druid a protect-the-bear support and his two-unit push takes towers before the enemy can group.
