Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Dawnbreaker wins the Dawnbreaker vs Lycan matchup: Dawnbreaker beats Lycan in 54.14% of 5,802 ranked matches.
Pushing down towers and taking over the map is how Lycan wins, but Dawnbreaker makes that incredibly difficult. Any time Lycan commits his ultimate to a tower dive, Dawnbreaker can instantly join the defense with Solar Guardian, turning a simple push into a lost fight for his team. Her own abilities, like Starbreaker, are great for clearing out his wolves and other summons once she lands. This constant threat of a global counter-gank stifles Lycan's aggression, denying him the space and gold from objectives that his strategy depends on. He can't build a lead, and she can fight him at any stage of the game.
