How Legion Commander and Lycan perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Legion Commander and Lycan win 63.74% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 91 matches.
Committing to both Legion Commander and Lycan is a bet on a very specific, aggressive game plan. The upside is clear: Press the Attack on a Shapeshifted Lycan makes him a terrifying raid boss, and Lycan's Howl can provide the extra damage Legion needs to secure a Duel victory. The problem is that both heroes want to be the team's primary initiator and set the tempo around their own ultimate cooldowns. Legion wants to hunt heroes, while Lycan wants to take buildings. If their timings and objectives don't perfectly align, the team can feel disjointed, leading to one hero engaging without the other's full support.
