How Beastmaster and Pugna perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Beastmaster and Pugna win 46.26% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,537 matches.
Focusing a target caught by Primal Roar often feels clumsy with this pairing. Pugna wants to use Decrepify on the stunned enemy to amplify his own magic damage, but this makes them immune to all physical attacks. Since Beastmaster and his entire army of summons deal physical damage, Pugna’s setup can completely negate his ally's contribution. This core conflict of damage types makes teamfights very awkward. While both heroes can apply pressure to towers, their inability to coordinate on a single kill target is a major problem that's hard to play around, leaving one hero's main strength nullified by the other.
