How this matchup plays

Thinking Underlord’s area denial will completely shut down a push is a common trap. While Firestorm is effective at clearing out wolves and Pit of Malice can be a problem, Lycan's entire game is about avoiding static fights. During Shapeshift, he has more than enough speed to run around Underlord's spells or simply pressure a different lane entirely. Underlord can make a tower very difficult for Lycan to take, but he can't force an engagement. This often results in a standoff where Lycan avoids the fortified area and Underlord lacks the mobility to hunt him down, leaving the outcome dependent on the rest of their teams.
