How this matchup plays
Choosing Pugna into a Lycan pick is a classic test of positioning versus aggression. On one hand, Pugna's Decrepify can completely neutralize a Shapeshifted Lycan, saving a core and turning a gank on its head by denying all his physical damage. On the other hand, Pugna is incredibly fragile and immobile. A well-timed flank from Lycan and his wolves usually means a dead Pugna before he can react. The outcome often depends on whether Lycan gets key items like a BKB first, or if Pugna’s team can provide the space he needs to cast his spells. It’s a coin-flip that relies entirely on execution.
