Why this works
Getting jumped by this pair often feels less scary than it looks. The target gets banished by Disruption, which seems like a good setup, but it creates an awkward pause. Meepo wants to instantly Poof and net a target, and that delay gives the enemy team a moment to react or reposition for a save. Meepo already brings his own lockdown with Earthbind, making the setup feel redundant and sometimes clunky. While Shadow Demon’s Demonic Purge can help lock down a key target, his damage comes from stacking Shadow Poison over time. This slow, sustained damage plan clashes with Meepo's goal of deleting one hero immediately and snowballing the map.
