How Earth Spirit and Pugna perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Earth Spirit and Pugna win 51.77% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,368 matches.
Controlling the map's tempo can feel inconsistent for this pairing. On one hand, a successful Rolling Boulder from Earth Spirit provides a perfect setup for Pugna to land Nether Blast and a full Life Drain channel. Using Decrepify on the stunned target also makes Earth Spirit's spell combo hit harder. The issue is that their game plans might not always line up. Pugna excels at grouped-up pushes to take towers, whereas Earth Spirit is often better off roaming for pickoffs. This can lead to them being on opposite sides of the map, unable to execute their combo when it matters, making their synergy feel situational at best.
