How Underlord and Spectre perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Underlord and Spectre win 49.76% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,244 matches.
Getting jumped by a Spectre Haunt is already a problem, but with Underlord on her team, it becomes a trap. He excels at holding multiple heroes in place with Pit of Malice, setting them up for Firestorm damage and, more importantly, isolating them for Spectre's Desolate. Atrophy Aura then cripples the enemy team's damage output, making it incredibly difficult to burst the Spectre down while her illusions and Dispersion wear everyone out. She gets to have the long, messy fight she wants every time.
This means Underlord can create the perfect mid-game environment for Spectre to farm. He's a resilient laner who can defend towers and apply pressure, buying space until his carry comes online. Once Spectre is ready, the enemy is forced to play cautiously, as any teamfight they take is on Underlord's terms. The usual strategy of trying to end the game early is also complicated by Fiend's Gate, which gives the pair a powerful tool to escape ganks or reposition the entire team for a fight.
