Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Bloodseeker wins the Bloodseeker vs Grimstroke matchup: Bloodseeker beats Grimstroke in 50.00% of 314 ranked matches.
Placing a Blood Rite where Grimstroke is charging Ink Swell can completely shut down his initiation. The silence lands before the stun goes off, often leaving him stranded and vulnerable. This pattern extends into the mid-game, where Bloodseeker actively hunts squishy supports. Grimstroke has no natural escape, so once Thirst provides vision, he’s in deep trouble. Rupture forces him to stand still, making him an easy target for Bloodseeker or his team. While a well-timed Soulbind can certainly punish an aggressive Bloodseeker who dives two heroes, Grimstroke often struggles to survive long enough to have that kind of impact on the fight.
