How Lycan and Muerta perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lycan and Muerta win 48.75% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 679 matches.
Pairing a fast-moving pusher with a static gunner seems strong on paper for taking objectives. The idea is that Lycan uses Shapeshift to force a fight, and Muerta uses Pierce the Veil to clean up from a safe distance. In reality, their plans often conflict. Lycan wants to dive deep into the backline with his wolves, creating chaos far away from his team. This leaves Muerta, who needs protection to get her shots off, exposed and without a proper frontline. While both heroes can apply immense pressure to buildings, they struggle to coordinate that pressure in the same place at the same time. They end up playing separate games on the same map.
