How Brewmaster and Pugna perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Brewmaster and Pugna win 51.93% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 932 matches.
Teamfights with this pair can feel a little disjointed. Pugna can use Decrepify to amplify the magic damage from Cinder Brew, but this also prevents Brewmaster from finishing targets with his physical attacks. This often creates an awkward choice mid-fight about how to secure a kill. Pugna also needs a lot of protection to channel Life Drain effectively. While Brewmaster's Primal Split causes plenty of chaos, the individual spirits aren't always great at peeling for a single fragile ally. Brewmaster wants to dive and brawl, whereas Pugna prefers a more controlled, static engagement, and their plans don't always line up perfectly from moment to moment.
