Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lycan wins the Arc Warden vs Lycan matchup: Lycan beats Arc Warden in 51.52% of 132 ranked matches.
Lycan’s wolves and other summons make Arc Warden’s defensive tools feel useless. The summons run ahead and trigger all the Spark Wraiths for free, clearing the path for Lycan himself. Arc Warden can't slow him with Flux when there are so many units nearby, and Magnetic Field offers little protection when Lycan isn't trying to trade hits from a distance—he’s running at your buildings with his army. This relentless pressure denies the space Arc Warden needs to farm and scale with his Tempest Double. Lycan simply takes over the map and ends the game before Arc Warden can come online.
