How Death Prophet and Legion Commander perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Death Prophet and Legion Commander win 58.26% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 575 matches.
Setting up a successful Duel is the main idea here. Death Prophet can land a Spirit Siphon on Legion Commander's target, making the kill much faster while also slowing them. Her Silence can be even more important, preventing enemy supports from using a Force Staff or Glimmer Cape to save their ally locked in combat. This combination turns Legion Commander's all-in gank into a much more reliable kill, especially against slippery heroes or coordinated teams who are ready to bail out their core.
The plan usually revolves around winning a Duel and then immediately using Exorcism to take a tower. This works well, but it depends entirely on Legion Commander finding the right fight. If she's forced to Duel a tanky frontliner or gets jumped herself, Death Prophet can't always turn the tide. Enemy teams learn to play spread out, forcing Death Prophet to choose between helping the Duel or positioning for her own ultimate. When the fight is clean, it's strong; when it's messy, their plans can fall apart.
