How Death Prophet and Lone Druid perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Death Prophet and Lone Druid win 46.72% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 122 matches.
Putting Exorcism and the Spirit Bear on the same tower creates a lot of pressure, but these heroes don't build on each other's strengths in fights. Death Prophet offers a silence, which is decent, but she lacks the hard stuns that really let Lone Druid and his bear tear a target apart. In return, Lone Druid's root isn't always ideal for Exorcism, which often prefers targets to run away. Both heroes want to be the durable, frontline core that runs at the enemy. Since their game plans are so similar, they can feel redundant rather than complementary, often operating as two separate threats instead of a coordinated pair.
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.
