How Leshrac and Lycan perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Leshrac and Lycan win 49.36% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 549 matches.
Playing against this duo often feels less threatening than it should because their goals don't align. Lycan wants to use Shapeshift to sprint past the frontline, isolate a single target with his wolves, and secure a quick kill. This usually leaves him fighting far ahead of his team. Leshrac, meanwhile, needs a more drawn-out engagement to deal damage with Pulse Nova and Diabolic Edict, and he lacks the hard lockdown to help Lycan burst someone down. This timing and positioning conflict means one hero is often left exposed or ineffective. Either Lycan dies alone after his initial charge, or Leshrac is left kiting without the support to finish anyone off.
