How Lycan and Undying perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Lycan and Undying win 51.43% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,962 matches.
Pushing for an early lead with this pair often feels very all-in. On paper, Undying’s Tombstone and Lycan's wolves and other summons can create a massive army to run down towers and supports. The problem is that both heroes want to do the exact same thing: group up and force fights from the front. This makes the strategy predictable and highly vulnerable to teams with good area-of-effect spells or disengage. If that initial timing push gets shut down, neither hero provides much of a backup plan or scales well enough to compensate. They both fall off together, making the whole game hinge on that first big move succeeding.
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.
