How Nature's Prophet and Pugna perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Nature's Prophet and Pugna win 47.10% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 431 matches.
Pushing a tower together highlights the core issue with this pairing. Pugna’s main goal is to land a big Nether Blast on heroes and buildings, often using Decrepify to amplify his magic damage or save an ally. The problem is that Decrepify makes an enemy immune to physical attacks, completely shutting down a right-clicking Nature’s Prophet. This forces them to work against each other in fights. Beyond that, their overall strategies conflict. Pugna wants to group up for teamfights and sieges, while Nature's Prophet excels at split-pushing and applying pressure away from his team. They simply don't have a cohesive plan and fail to enable each other's strengths.
