How Axe and Visage perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Axe and Visage win 56.84% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 234 matches.
Landing a good Berserker's Call gives Visage a perfect window to unload damage. The Familiars get to attack stationary targets, and Soul Assumption charges up extremely quickly from all the incoming attacks on Axe. This setup makes it simple to delete a key hero at the start of any fight. Beyond that initial burst, Axe's presence on the frontline creates the constant space Visage needs to position his summons and chip away at buildings. Both heroes want to fight early and often, so their game plans line up to snowball the mid-game and secure objectives together.
