How this matchup plays

Casting Exorcism and trying to run down a backliner is Death Prophet's main goal, but Sniper is designed to punish exactly that. His superior attack range allows him to hit her from a safe distance, well outside the effective radius of her ghosts. Any attempt by Death Prophet to close the gap is met with a barrage of slows from Headshot and Shrapnel, making her an easy target. If she does somehow get on top of him, Sniper can create more space with Concussive Grenade. This fundamentally disrupts her ability to execute her game plan, as Sniper can safely dismantle her push and kill her long before her ultimate does meaningful work.
