Why this works

Pairing Dark Willow and Death Prophet often forces a difficult choice in teamfights, because their most powerful spells actively work against each other. Death Prophet wants to activate Exorcism and run at the enemy team, needing them to stay close for her ghosts to deal damage. Dark Willow’s Terrorize does the opposite, scattering the entire enemy team and making it impossible for the ghosts to connect with their targets. This core conflict means one of them often has to hold their ultimate, crippling your team's potential. Their other abilities don't line up well either; the delay on Cursed Crown isn't reliable enough to set up a full Spirit Siphon channel.
