How Enigma and Grimstroke perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Enigma and Grimstroke win 51.98% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 2,022 matches.
The dream scenario is a perfect Soulbind into Black Hole, but this setup rarely comes together as cleanly as you'd hope. A well-placed Black Hole often catches the key targets on its own, making Grimstroke's ultimate feel a bit redundant. Both Enigma and Grimstroke are also managing very long cooldowns and different positioning; Enigma wants to find a blink-initiation while Grimstroke prefers to stay far in the back. Because of this, they often end up playing their own games rather than building a strategy around one specific interaction. While the big combo can occasionally happen and win a fight, it's not consistent enough to be a game plan you can rely on from the start.
How this pairing performs across skill brackets — the duo's team win rate in recent ranked matches, split by average match rank. Ranks with too few recent matches are omitted. These rows use the last 30 days of quality-filtered ranked matches, all patches in that span combined — a wider window than the patch-scoped count above, so the per-rank match totals can exceed it.
