    Every game I face a lycan they just push and we lose every time. Know any ways to counter him other than pick sven, gyro, etc

        Jack__Attack

          Earthshaker is his biggest counter.

          JDF8

            pick kotl

              Players in your bracket are probably very bad at understanding lane creep dynamics, when to anticipate pushes to be ready to counterpush and understanding when to defend their own towers vs when to pressure an enemy objective. Of course, we can also assume then that a Lycan at your level is probably not performing with much finesse, they are simply abusing how easy it is to take objectives vs players with weak macro comprehension.

              You'll want a hero with great wave clear who can be ready for Lycan showing up and blow up his summons.

              As said above, KotL is a great choice. KotL can effectively permanently defend a location as long as he wishes, can nuke from safety for high damage and the cooldown isn't terribly long on the next Illuminate. Furthermore, Manaleak fucks with Lycan and Blinding Light is a fantastic utility option if Lycan decides to dive you. Worst case, even if he dives you with a full duration ult and if your team isn't coming, Blinding Light will give you enough time to tp out during the debuff.

              You probably don't even need to tp home since your hero is so sustainable, just go to the nearest shrine to avoid Lycan's ult. Once Lycan's ult is on cooldown there is simply no way for him to ever threaten you realistically, keep track of his ult timer, keep nuking his dudes and de-push his waves. If Lycan goes 25+ minutes without getting a significant amount of tower pushing done his effectiveness starts tanking as he needs that gold lead to close out the game.

                Buy dotaplus and escape the trench

                    Place some wards and buy TP scroll for a start.

                    Or u just might wait until Lycan is nerfed

                      ^Lycan is balanced. He just works well against uncoordinated teams and greedy lategame players.

                      Picked + Banned 4 times at the summit whereas void was picked+banned 35 times.
                      Pros would ban it or pick it more if he were unbalanced.

                      kowareta

                        u can beat archon lycan with anyhero tbh
                        but i hate undying and techies (if u looking for supports tho)
                        lycan can play around any other hero(supports), kotl/ww just send the creeps to kill him, shaker dont stack!
                        undying or techies tho is a pain in the ass

                        Sygma zxc ghoul 2y.o dead...

                          What if the ww is hidden in treelines :P You can't hit what you can't see !

                          Yami Yugi

                            Give your carry BloodRage, or ask for BloodRage if you are a carry, yummy plenty creeps as heals :p

                              @sygma
                              well just keep ur distance from creeps and w8 for ww to show up or get aegis and waste one life for his ult
                              its not a big deal tbh

                                ^Damn you are the kind of ennemies I commend post-game that actually forces me to use the IQ>9000 secret jutsu :P

                                Dota is like chess, mecanical skills move the piece but the mind kills the king

                                kowareta

                                  i always getting commends from enemies

                                  there is a chance one of my teammates getting triggered when i told all of them rustards tho, but i doubt cause its just happened one time

                                    To counter the hero, literally anything with aoe. To counter the push in other hand is kinda hard especially in 2k bracket where no one even bother to buy tp scroll and reset the creep wave.

                                    But if youre looking for hero to counter him, best bet would be shaker and WW, but wyvern seems weak and out of meta nowadays.

                                      how the fuck a lycan spammer says es is the biggest counter?
                                      es never buys crimson guard, heroes who buying crimson are the problems.

                                        1 day chat ban cause i said russtards when i asked nicely my team get back and they didnt when all of our ulties where cooldown!
                                        i dont know

                                        Väinämöinen

                                          stop using TP after you died, walk out of base.

                                          Always fun when Lycan is ratting your racks but your entire team has TP on cooldown

                                          Väinämöinen

                                            kowareta you disconnect 5evry 5 minutes, maybe people get annoyed because of all the pauses

                                            kowareta

                                              nah i got reported in the game before it
                                              the last game tho i had 500 ping, terrible network and 40 fps on top of it i was trying to say sry in all chat and i found out i banned 4 hours ago for a day xD

                                              zarse

                                                bristleback and kunkka shit over lycan day

                                                or just anyone who can clear the wolves, has crimson or whatever

                                                Yami Yugi

                                                  Why not Tide? He has built in Crimson to directly go for the next anti Lycan item

                                                    Not dying ≠ countering

                                                    kowareta

                                                      what? tombstone is the greatest counter to lycan (if u mean un(not)dying or i dont understand wth u talking about)
