Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lycan wins the Gyrocopter vs Lycan matchup: Lycan beats Gyrocopter in 54.81% of 686 ranked matches.
Thinking that Lycan can simply run Gyrocopter down with Shapeshift is a common mistake. Gyro actually has some decent tools for this fight. Flak Cannon cleans up the summoned wolves very fast, which really cuts into Lycan's overall damage and map pressure. If Lycan does manage to close the distance, he has to stand in a full Rocket Barrage, and that hurts a lot. The matchup can still lean in Lycan’s favor, though, because he controls the engagement. He decides when to transform and go, forcing Gyrocopter to play defensively. If Lycan catches him out of position or without cooldowns, Gyro usually dies before he can fight back.
