How this matchup plays

Splitting the map with the Spirit Bear creates a unique pressure that Io is well-suited to answer. The core of this matchup is a trade of map control. Lone Druid excels at forcing reactions by having his bear push a lane while the hero farms safely elsewhere. Io’s Relocate is one of the best tools for punishing this, allowing his team to instantly show up and kill either the bear or the hero. However, this is a double-edged sword. A misplayed Relocate can give the bear a free tower. If Lone Druid chooses to group up and fight, Io is a fragile hero who can be easily run down and killed by the bear before a Tether save is possible.
