Strong in most lanes
They lose most of their lanes against every hero, so beating them is not specific to Beastmaster.
- Lion17 lanes, 13 at this position+0.26lane score
Why?
Measured over 17 lanes: Lion loses most of his lanes against every hero, so with Beastmaster across he does 0.26 lane-score points worse than usual (80% range +0.08 to +0.45). That is general lane weakness, not a matchup of Beastmaster's.

Divine+ games on one patch. An edge is what happens when a hero is picked into another, not a controlled test; the dots show how strongly a matchup stands out among all counters. In lane an edge counts only what the matchup does beyond both heroes' general lane strength. A reason is shown only where Valve's own spell or item text and the data agree; a rule of the game is a fact from Valve's files, not a measurement.
