How Night Stalker and Visage perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Night Stalker and Visage win 54.12% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 1,007 matches.
Facing an aggressive gank during the first night is difficult when Night Stalker leads the charge with Visage in tow. Night Stalker's early speed and silencing ability can hold a target in place, giving Visage the window he needs to land Familiar stuns and build up a powerful Soul Assumption. This shared focus on early aggression can create a lot of pressure on the map. However, their plan is heavily reliant on succeeding during that first night cycle. If they fail to find kills, both heroes can have a hard time recovering, and their playstyles don't always align perfectly in bigger teamfights later on.
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.
