How this matchup plays

Picking a hero to lock down the slippery Pangolier can be tricky, but Troll Warlord has some advantages. Pangolier wants to poke with Swashbuckle and use his mobility to stay safe, but he has trouble bursting through Battle Trance. Once Troll Warlord activates his ultimate, he's very difficult to kite and can often sustain through Pangolier's damage while building up his own attack speed. The melee version of Whirling Axes can also cause Swashbuckle's hits to miss, reducing Pango's burst. Still, a well-timed Rolling Thunder lets Pangolier reposition or escape entirely, which keeps the matchup from being too one-sided and makes item choices like a Nullifier or Abyssal Blade critical for the Troll.
