How Faceless Void and Grimstroke perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Faceless Void and Grimstroke win 49.57% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 7,614 matches.
Getting caught by Soulbind can be a major problem when a Faceless Void is nearby. Chronosphere locking down both tethered heroes makes it much simpler for Grimstroke to land his silence and line up a powerful Stroke of Fate. The combined control can be enough to delete two heroes from a fight before they can react. In return, Grimstroke's slows and the threat of his ultimate can help Void find a better position to trap key targets inside his own Chronosphere.
This synergy revolves around their ultimates, so its impact is tied to their cooldowns. Teams facing this duo try to spread out to make a multi-hero Soulbind difficult, or they force fights when one of the key spells is unavailable. The Faceless Void and Grimstroke pairing relies on finding the right moment to commit both abilities for maximum impact. When it works, it’s effective, but the coordination required is why the advantage feels more like a slight lean than a guaranteed fight-winner.
