How Lone Druid and Pugna perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lone Druid and Pugna win 45.96% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,238 matches.
Taking down an early tower becomes a real possibility with these two. The Spirit Bear provides the sustained physical damage while Pugna's Nether Blast melts the structure's health. Pugna can also help keep Lone Druid's bear alive through a fight, using Decrepify to save it from physical damage or Life Drain to heal it back up. The main point of conflict, however, is that same Decrepify. When used offensively on an enemy, it completely stops the bear from attacking that target. This clash between their offensive goals often forces awkward target switching in fights, making the overall impact of the pairing less consistent than it might seem on paper.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
