Pugna Synergies (7.41e)

Best heroes to pair with Pugna in Dota 2 7.41e, and the worst pairings, ranked by team win rate over ranked matches.

Pugna's Nether Blast obliterates towers and its Decrepify can set up or save — it's a premier push-and-pickoff core. It pairs best with summon/push and durable cores: Chen doubles the early tower pressure, while Spectre and Lycan snowball off the map control Pugna creates. Give Pugna a push partner and its Nether Blast tempo ends games before late-scaling carries come online.
