Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Grimstroke wins the Grimstroke vs Magnus matchup: Grimstroke beats Magnus in 51.56% of 1,284 ranked matches.
Controlling the map against a Magnus becomes much easier with Grimstroke on your team. Magnus wants to accelerate his farm with Empower and then find a big Reverse Polarity, but Grimstroke makes both parts of that plan difficult. Stroke of Fate constantly shoves waves, forcing Magnus to react and slowing his item progression. Later, the threat of Soulbind completely changes how Magnus has to think about teamfights. If he commits with Reverse Polarity, Grimstroke can link him to an ally, creating an easy double-kill opportunity for your team. Even a simple Skewer initiation can be punished by Soulbind, turning the gank against him.
