Not possible. Invisibility is a player wide concept. If a unit is invisible to a player, all units of that player interact with it like it is invisible.

Through some order manipulation trickery you might be able to get a specific unit to ignore another unit (cannot attack, cannot cast against it, etc) but mechanically it is still visible to that unit if the unit is visible to the owning player.

Hello everyone! I wanted to ask if it is possible to make a unit invisible for just one unit? Thanks in advance!
If you don't have any other invisible units, you can make all other units have an invisibility detection spell, except that unit that you want to make the unit invisible to. After that part of the map is over, you can then remove those invisibility detection spells from those units.

Whether or not this would be viable depends on your map layout, type and gameplay.
