How Death Prophet and Keeper of the Light perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Death Prophet and Keeper of the Light win 46.87% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,364 matches.
Keeping Death Prophet’s mana topped off with Chakra Magic allows her to constantly pressure the lane and accelerate her farm with Crypt Swarm. This can create a strong tempo heading into the mid-game, letting her push towers with an early Exorcism. The main issue is that Keeper of the Light offers no hard lockdown to help her stick to targets. In fact, a poorly timed Blinding Light can push enemies away, breaking her Spirit Siphon tethers and saving them from her ghosts. Lacking a reliable stun between them, the pair can struggle to secure kills against mobile heroes, even with a huge mana advantage. This leaves their success largely dependent on the rest of the team's draft.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
