How Legion Commander and Lone Druid perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Legion Commander and Lone Druid win 49.52% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 416 matches.
Thinking of these two as greedy cores who get in each other's way is a common mistake. Lone Druid’s Spirit Bear makes winning a Duel incredibly reliable. An Entangling Claws from the bear is a perfect setup for Legion Commander to jump in. Once the Duel starts, the bear adds a massive amount of physical damage to the target, all but guaranteeing the victory and bonus damage. LC can even use Press the Attack on the bear to make it a more terrifying threat.
This synergy creates a clear game plan. Find a pickoff with Duel, secure it with the bear, and then immediately push a tower. Lone Druid and his bear excel at taking objectives, so any successful gank quickly turns into map control. Opponents are forced to play reactively, trying to save the Duel target or kite the bear. This is hard to do, as they have to deal with two major physical threats at once, allowing the pair to snowball the game.
