How Lone Druid and Puck perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lone Druid and Puck win 40.68% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 118 matches.
Controlling the map can become a point of friction for this pairing. Both Lone Druid and Puck want to occupy a lot of space to accelerate their farm and hit key item timings, which can lead to them competing for resources. In teamfights, Puck’s Dream Coil provides excellent area control, but the follow-up isn't always clean. Lone Druid’s damage, coming from both the hero and the Spirit Bear, is mostly focused on a single target. Without strong area-of-effect damage to punish multiple heroes caught in the Coil, the setup often feels wasted. They function more like two solo heroes playing on the same team rather than a cohesive unit.
