Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Visage wins the Visage vs Witch Doctor matchup: Visage beats Witch Doctor in 54.18% of 347 ranked matches.
Catching a Witch Doctor out of position is Visage's main goal. The Familiars can chain-stun to interrupt Death Ward, while Soul Assumption provides enough burst to finish him before Maledict does its work. However, the fight completely flips if Witch Doctor gets the jump. A good Paralyzing Cask can lock up both Visage and his birds, leaving him wide open for a Maledict and a full Death Ward. Since the Ward deals physical damage, it shreds the Familiars, which normally shrug off magical attacks thanks to their high resistance. The matchup often comes down to which hero lands their spells first.
