Why this works
It seems like a straightforward plan to put Guardian Angel on an ulted Lycan and run at towers, but the execution is often awkward. The main issue is tempo. During Shapeshift, Lycan wants to move across the map and dive aggressively, but Omniknight is a much slower, more position-based hero. If Lycan sprints deep for a kill, Omniknight can be too far behind to apply Heavenly Grace or his ultimate when it's needed most. This positioning clash means the combo is less reliable than it appears on paper, as Omniknight struggles to keep up with his own core's aggression, leaving Lycan vulnerable at the critical moment.
