How Anti-Mage and Lycan perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Anti-Mage and Lycan win 50.04% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,416 matches.
Setting up a big Mana Void is harder when your ally is mostly dealing physical damage. Lycan and his summons chew through health bars but don't touch mana pools, leaving Anti-Mage's ultimate with much less impact in fights. This points to a larger problem: they have opposite ideas about how to win. Lycan wants to group up with his army early and push down buildings, usually hitting a big power spike with his ultimate and first major item. Anti-Mage needs to stay away from those fights to farm his own items. This tempo clash means the team is often split, making it difficult to execute either hero's game plan effectively.
