How Death Prophet and Winter Wyvern perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Death Prophet and Winter Wyvern win 51.73% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,136 matches.
Taking objectives with this duo often feels a bit disjointed. Death Prophet wants to run at a key enemy with Exorcism to secure a kill and start a push. However, a well-placed Winter's Curse from Winter Wyvern makes the primary cursed target immune to all damage from their team. This means Death Prophet's ghosts cannot attack the very hero that has been locked down. The spirits are forced to retarget or idle, wasting crucial seconds of damage from a long-cooldown ultimate. While the control is nice, this moment of immunity can be enough to let the focused enemy survive the fight, slowing the game down and preventing the pair from reliably taking over the map.
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.
