Pangolier counters & matchups
Pangolier is a mobile fighter whose Swashbuckle dashes and damages, Shield Crash grants survivability, and Rolling Thunder ball-rolls through a whole team for AoE stun. He's strong into immobile heroes his roll catches: Nature's Prophet, Mars and Timbersaw get rolled up. Pangolier is countered by mobile carries and burst that beat his roll: Bloodseeker chases him through it, while Meepo, Riki and Huskar out-tempo or burst him. Draft tip: Pangolier is a strong AoE-stun initiator/core into squishy, clumpable drafts; he's weaker into mobile burst and chase-heavy line-ups.

Pangolier synergies
Pangolier's Rolling Thunder is a team-wide AoE stun on a long roll — he wants follow-up that punishes a stunned, clumped enemy. He pairs best with AoE and durable cores: Spectre and Wraith King clean up everything caught in his roll, while Tidehunter stacks Ravage with Rolling Thunder for an inescapable lock. Give Pangolier an AoE follow-up and his ball-roll engage wins teamfights.
Best teammates
 Wraith King | 52.23% | 36,700 |
