What makes Ares doomed universe prophecy effective is how it builds off what we’ve seen the Anti-Living Darkseid do with Supergirl and the New Gods along with Brainiac’s own warning.

The prophecy itself sets this up to be the Crisis event of the DCeased Universe that our heroes were able to previously stop from happening thanks to their actions in the predecessor to this series. Adding Ares and the prophecy for the end of the universe does a lot to help change up what DCeased: War Of The Undead Gods is compared to its predecessors.
