How Death Prophet and Primal Beast perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Death Prophet and Primal Beast win 48.04% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,099 matches.
Winning a mid-game teamfight with this pair can feel a little awkward. Primal Beast wants to use Onslaught to charge in and hold one enemy down with Pulverize, which sets up a great target for Death Prophet's Spirit Siphon. The issue is that Death Prophet's Exorcism is most effective when the enemy team is either grouped up or running away together, letting her ghosts hit multiple heroes. Primal Beast's initiation often scatters the enemy or isolates a single hero, which isn't the ideal setup for her ultimate. While they can both frontline and cause chaos, their core teamfight abilities don't always align, leading to fights that can feel less coordinated than they should.
