Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Visage wins the Sand King vs Visage matchup: Visage beats Sand King in 52.99% of 921 ranked matches.
Getting jumped by Sand King can be uncomfortable for Visage. Epicenter deals its damage in pulses, which is ideal for wearing down the layers of Gravekeeper's Cloak and clearing out Familiars. This can seriously blunt Visage's ability to fight back. However, Sand King is quite fragile himself. If he doesn't kill Visage inside the Burrowstrike stun, Visage can often turn the fight around with his own high burst damage from Soul Assumption and his birds. Sand Storm offers some protection for Sand King, but it's not always enough to survive the focused counter-attack. The fight really comes down to whether Sand King gets a clean initiation or if Visage can survive the initial jump.
