In lane
Beyond both heroes' general lane strength, by 10:00
As Carry (pos 1)
Across 398 lanes at this position, Lone Druid does not beat any hero in lane beyond his general lane strength.
Strong in most lanes
They lose most of their lanes against every hero, so beating them is not specific to Lone Druid.
- Nyx Assassin18 lanes, 15 at this position+0.28lane score
Why?
Measured over 18 lanes: Nyx Assassin loses most of his lanes against every hero, so with Lone Druid across he does 0.28 lane-score points worse than usual (80% range +0.10 to +0.46). That is general lane weakness, not a matchup of Lone Druid'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.
