How Abaddon and Visage perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Abaddon and Visage win 49.47% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 752 matches.
An Aphotic Shield on Visage can be quite helpful, dispelling a stun at a key moment and letting him continue commanding his Familiars. This allows their general game plan to unfold. In teamfights, Abaddon often runs in first, drawing attention and absorbing spells with Borrowed Time. This chaos creates a window for Visage and his summons to deal their damage from a safer distance, with the incoming damage also helping to charge Soul Assumption. The whole thing hinges on good timing, though. If Abaddon can't apply his shield in time or the enemy simply has enough control for both heroes, the pairing can feel disjointed.
