Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Visage wins the Grimstroke vs Visage matchup: Visage beats Grimstroke in 52.72% of 184 ranked matches.
Trying to lock down a core with Phantom's Embrace is often a waste of mana against Visage. His Familiars can kill the phantom almost instantly, freeing the target before the spell has any real impact. This makes it difficult for Grimstroke to set up kills or peel for his allies. In larger fights, Visage's tendency to command his Familiars from a safe distance also devalues Soulbind, as he's rarely clumped up with another priority hero. While a well-placed Stroke of Fate can damage the summons, it doesn’t solve the core problem: Grimstroke’s single-target control is largely nullified, giving Visage the upper hand.
