Huskar
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 3%)Oracle
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Bounty Hunter
* 
Oracle with 
Fortune's End and 
False Promise
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:
* 
Abaddon with 
Aphotic Shield and 
Borrowed Time
* 
Huskar with 
Life Break
* 
Juggernaut with 
Blade Fury
* 
Legion Commander with 
Press the Attack
* 
Lifestealer with 
Rage and 
Infest
* 
Naga Siren with 
Mirror Image
* 
Omniknight with 
Heavenly Grace
* Oracle with Fortune's End and False Promise
* 
Phantom Lancer with 
Doppelganger
* 
Slark with 
Dark Pact
* 
Ursa with 
Enrage
* 
Weaver with 
Time Lapse
* 
Tidehunter with 
Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Ember Spirit
* Oracle can shut down both of Ember's early game abilities. Fortune's End can dispel 
Flame Guard on Ember Spirit and 
Searing Chains on allies.
* When Ember Spirit is affected by Fortune's End, his 
Fire Remnants move at 0 movement speed.
* Disarming him with Fate's Edict does affect Ember's 
Sleight of Fist ability, possibly making him useless for a few seconds in the late game without a dispel or spell immunity. This is especially good if he has a rapier or two. However, positioning for this is difficult when Ember plays far back.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 17%)Ember Spirit
* Lion possesses two strong disables in 
Earth Spike and 
Hex and heavy magic burst with 
Finger of Death which help lock him down and prevent him from escaping with Activate Fire Remnant. When getting his 
Blink Dagger Lion can punish Ember Spirit's overextension immediately, or initiate a fight on him with disables.
Additional:
* Ember lacks any protection against Lion's disables early in the game and often does not acquire any later, allowing Lion to Hex or Earth Spike him before he escapes through his Fire Remnant.
* Although Flame Guard can prevent magic damage, it does not stop Lion's disables, and Lion can usually break through it with Finger of Death.
Bounty Hunter
* Finger of Death can instantly shred many targets especially fragile Heroes like 
Keeper of the Light, 
Ancient Apparition, or 
Bounty Hunter.
Techies
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 8%)Bounty Hunter
* Techies is very good against roaming supports and gankers such as Bounty Hunter, 
Riki, Weaver, 
Earthshaker, 
Nyx Assassin, etc. that are constantly moving around the map.
Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit relies on his Fire Remnant to keep a steady push and then retreat to a safe distance. Keeping two or three patches of Remote Mines on a lane will severely impair him from pushing that lane without risking his life.
Omniknight
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Ember Spirit
* The pure damage provided by 
Purification is a great addition for killing Ember Spirit, as well as a good way of saving teammates.
* 
Guardian Angel will temporarily save his allies from Sleight of Fist's physical damage, and Ember Spirit is not a hero that will get 
Orchid Malevolence to counter it.
Bounty Hunter
* Omniknight with Heavenly Grace
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:
* Abaddon with Aphotic Shield and Borrowed Time
* Huskar with Life Break
* Juggernaut with Blade Fury
* Legion Commander with Press the Attack
* Lifestealer with Rage and Infest
* Naga Siren with Mirror Image
* Omniknight with Heavenly Grace
* Oracle with Fortune's End and False Promise
* Phantom Lancer with Doppelganger
* Slark with Dark Pact
* Ursa with Enrage
* Weaver with Time Lapse
* Tidehunter with Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 41% pickrate: 3%)Bounty Hunter
* Heroes who rely on invisibility, such as Bounty Hunter, 
Clinkz, 
Mirana, Nyx Assassin and Riki, as they will be revealed if caught by Chronosphere.
Ember Spirit
* Faceless Void is one of the best heroes against Ember Spirit, providing a lot of ways of dealing with him. Ember Spirit becomes a lot weaker if affected by 
Time Dilation, as he can no longer spam Sleight of Fist.
* 
Chronosphere is also a reliable lockdown for Ember Spirit, although it can be evaded sometimes by Activate Fire Remnant. Additionally, Void can easily negate Sleight of Fist damage with 
Time Walk.
* And finally, Void is a great 
Diffusal Blade carrier. Not only 
Manabreak's physical damage not negated by Flame Guard, but it also burns Ember Spirit's mana. That, in turn, prevents him from escaping if he survived Chronosphere.
Death Prophet
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Bounty Hunter
* Death Prophet's 
Silence allows her to prevent Bounty Hunter from escaping with Shadow Walk.
* If Bounty Hunter cannot escape with Shadow Walk while affected by Silence, she will be able to burst him down with 
Crypt Swarm and 
Spirit Siphon.
Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)Ember Spirit
* The pure damage provided by 
Arcane Orb is a great addition for killing Ember Spirit.
* 
Astral Imprisonment fully negates all magic damage of Flame Guard and Searing Chains and will temporarily save himself from Sleight of Fist's physical damage, and Ember Spirit is not a hero that can counter these skills.
Luna
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Bounty Hunter
* Even though Luna is the kind of hero that Bounty Hunter can handle due to Shadow Walk rendering him safe from 
Eclipse, smart Luna will always buy 
Dust of Appearance, allowing her to provide vision on him to her team, and possibly, kill Bounty Hunter with Eclipse.
Additional:
* Even though Luna is the kind of hero that Bounty Hunter can handle due to Shadow Walk rendering him safe from Eclipse, smart Luna will always buy Dust of Appearance, allowing her to provide vision on him to her team, and possibly, kill Bounty Hunter with Eclipse.
Slardar
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Bounty Hunter
* 
Corrosive Haze provides True Sight on its target, exposing Bounty Hunter's position regardless of Shadow Walk.
* 
Guardian Sprint gives a very high movement speed bonus, allowing him to chase Bounty Hunter even if Slardar is tracked.
Additional:
* Bounty Hunter's 
Shadow Walk is rendered useless with Corrosive Haze and makes Bounty Hunter an easy target for Slardar and his team.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Bounty Hunter
* Venomancer's magical damage-over-time poisons greatly reduce Bounty Hunter's mobility.
* 
Venomous Gale, 
Plague Wards and 
Poison Nova with True Sight items can allow Venomancer and his teammates to gank Bounty Hunter while he is roaming alone.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Ember Spirit
* 
Global Silence and 
Last Word can prevent Ember Spirit from casting Activate Fire Remnant to escape.
* 
Glaives of Wisdom also provide high pure damage that is not negated by Flame Guard.
* 
Arcane Curse is also a potent harassing tool in the laning stage as its cooldown is lower than Flame Guard's.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 4%)Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit greatly relies on his spells to engage in battle. Drow Ranger can simply silence him with Gust and make him useless for a few seconds, which Ember Spirit cannot afford during a teamfight.
Viper
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 6%)Bounty Hunter
* Viper's poison abilities can slow Bounty Hunter's movement speed and allows to chase him with True Sight items.
* 
Nethertoxin can break Jinada, and the silence from level 25 prevents Bounty Hunter from using all of his spells.
Spectre
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Bounty Hunter
* Spectre can instantly reveal Bounty Hunter's position on the activation of her ultimate 
Haunt. She can also semi-reveal( visible but not target-able) Bounty Hunter by hitting him with 
Spectral Dagger.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 8%)Bounty Hunter
* Bounty Hunter has a very low health pool, allowing Zeus to burst him down quickly.
* Zeus can cast Lightning Bolt to gain True Sight in any area he suspects Bounty Hunter may be invisible or any area he thinks Bounty Hunter may have warded.
* If Bounty Hunter tries to escape a gank by using Shadow Walk, Zeus can gain vision of him with both Lightning Bolt and Thundergod's Wrath.
Additional:
* 
Lightning Bolt makes roaming behind enemy lines more and more difficult as Zeus becomes powerful enough to spam it. Also, Zeus' Ultimate 
Thundergod's Wrath reveals Bounty Hunter regardless of his position.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 16%)Bounty Hunter
* Rubick is a potential counter to Bounty Hunter as he can steal his Track and use it against his invisibility, and also provide his team with more gold if the tracked hero is killed.
Enchantress
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 1%)Ember Spirit
* Impetus will deal huge amounts of damage when he uses a Fire Remnant to escape.
* Flame Guard is useless against Impetus.

Kunkka
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 3%)Ember Spirit

X Marks the spot Kunkka can prevent Ember Spirit from escaping with Activate Fire Remnant, until he purchase 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity or 
Linken's Sphere.

[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 6%)Ember Spirit
* Heroes who rely on high mobility are especially vulnerable to Primal Roar: 
Storm Spirit, 
Ember Spirit, 
Queen of Pain.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 5%)Bounty Hunter
* 
Night Stalker's 
Crippling Fear at night prevents Shadow Walk for an extended period of time and his 
Void will make Phase Boots useless. If Night Stalker has True Sight, he can shutdown Bounty Hunter's sneak kill.
Puck
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 17%)Ember Spirit
* Any Hero with high mobility will be neutralized by dream coil: Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, 
Lycan,

Sven, 
Tiny, 
Wraith King, 
Dragon Knight, 
Meepo, 
Doom, Bounty Hunter, 
Dark Seer, 
Undying, 
Alchemist, Legion Commander.
Wraith King
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Bounty Hunter
* Heroes that are naturally hard to gank, ranging from beefy tanks like Abaddon and Wraith King to heroes with quick escape mechanisms like Anti-Mage and Storm Spirit are also undesirable targets for a lone, roaming Bounty Hunter to scout out and initiate on.

[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 13%)Bounty Hunter
* Heroes that are naturally hard to gank, ranging from beefy tanks like Abaddon and Wraith King to heroes with quick escape mechanisms like Anti-Mage and Storm Spirit are also undesirable targets for a lone, roaming Bounty Hunter to scout out and initiate on.
Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 12%)Ember Spirit
* Storm Spirit is not only a potent Orchid Malevolence carrier, his 
Electric Vortex provides an additional disable and 
Overload provides a great slow. When paired with 
Static Remnant, they can cut through Flame Guard fast.
* 
Ball Lightning not only provides great initiation upon Ember Spirit from any position anytime, but also helps dodge Sleight of Fist.
Bounty Hunter
* Heroes that are naturally hard to gank, ranging from beefy tanks like Abaddon and Wraith King to heroes with quick escape mechanisms like Anti-Mage and Storm Spirit are also undesirable targets for a lone, roaming Bounty Hunter to scout out and initiate on.
Ember Spirit
* Flame Guard absorbs up to 500 magical damage (700 with Level 10 talents), which helps Ember Spirit survive and react to Storm Spirit's high magical damage.
* Searing Chains can root enemies up to 3 seconds, making Storm Spirit unable to escape with Ball Lightning.
* Fire Remnant deals high magical damage when casting multiple instances at once, granting Ember Spirit the damage to burst Storm Spirit down in the early to mid game.

Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 9%)Ember Spirit
* Queen of Pain can be a good hero for dealing with Ember Spirit with Orchid Malevolence, her pure damage nuke in 
Sonic Wave and a slow in 
Shadow Strike. However, Queen of Pain can be punished by Ember Spirit, as his Searing Chains prevents her from getting 
Blink off.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 8%)Bounty Hunter
* 
Bristleback's 
Viscous Nasal Goo can catch and slow Bounty Hunter. 
Warpath and 
Quill Spray can defeat him quickly due to his small HP pool when compared to Bristleback's.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 2%)Ember Spirit
* The general opinion that Doom can counter Ember Spirit with his 
Doom is a misconception, as Doom has a long cast animation, so an attentive Ember Spirit can easily dodge it if he has a Fire Remnant nearby. Doom is still an extremely effective early ganker however, as his 
Scorched Earth and 
Infernal Blade damage can quickly overwhelm Flame Guard's magic damage absorption, leaving Ember Spirit with no protection against them. Additional skills that Doom can get from Neutral creeps can also help bully Ember Spirit early. 
Shadow Blade or Blink Dagger on Doom can also help, providing a good way to apply Doom on Ember Spirit.
Additional:
* Ember Spirit cannot use his 
Activate Fire Remnant to escape while under effect from Doom.
Clinkz
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 4%)Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit's Flame Guard provides no protection against Clinkz's physical damage output.
* Ember Spirit's low armor and health make him easy to kill quickly if a teammate can hold him down.
* If Clinkz has farmed an item that can disable, he can sneak up to and hunt down Ember Spirit while he farms or split pushes alone.
Bounty Hunter
* Invisibility reliant heroes: Heroes with invisibility abilities or those that have invested into invisibility items are hindered by Bounty Hunter's Track. Few examples of such heroes are:Clinkz, Riki, 
Treant Protector, etc.
Additional:
* 
Track reveals Clinkz if he tries to escape with Skeleton Walk, allowing Bounty Hunter to gain lots of gold if he kills Clinkz.
* 
Jinada with physical damage items can quickly kill Clinkz due to his low health.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit can close the distance between Sniper easily with his Activate Fire Remnant and further keep Sniper in place with Searing Chains.
* With the help of 
Aghanim's Scepter, Sniper cannot outrun Ember Spirit or chase him, even if Sniper builds mobility items.
Bounty Hunter
* Bounty Hunter can use Shadow Walk to get close, and Jinada can do massive damage and slow down Sniper on the first attack.
* Track gives additional speed to Bounty Hunter and makes Shadow Blade useless, allowing Bounty Hunter to easily kill him with a few attacks.
Additional:
* Sniper relies on distance. Bounty Hunter can use Shadow Walk to get close, and Jinada can do massive damage and slow down Sniper in the early game.
* Track gives additional speed to Bounty Hunter and makes Shadow Blade useless, which can allow Bounty Hunter to easily kill him with a few attacks.
Void Spirit
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 13%)Bounty Hunter
* One hit with Jinada should be sufficient in removing Void Spirit's shield most of the time.
* Track negates much of Void Spirit's escape abilities by revealing his position and prevents him from rotating effectively.
Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit has much higher mobility in Fire Remnant than Void Spirit.
* Ember's Flame Guard is effective against Void Spirit's spells, as most of them deal magical damage.
* The root from Searing Chains prevents Void Spirit from using Dissimilate or Astral Step.
Nature's Prophet
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 5%)Bounty Hunter
* Heroes with detection: Bounty Hunter, 
Disruptor, 
Razor, 
Slardar, 
Spectre, 
Spirit Breaker
Ember Spirit
* Sleight of Fist with 
Battle Fury deals a lot of damage to Nature's Prophet's team if they stand close to his Treants, as well as killing all of his Treants and getting lots of gold.
* Ember Spirit with Fire Remnant and 
Boots of Travel can teleport and defend tower whenever Nature's Prophet tries to push.
Additional:
* Ember Spirit can easily deal with 
Nature's Call by using his Flame Guard and with Battle Fury. He also has multiple ways of escaping 
Sprout. Additionally, Ember Spirit can break Sprout's trees with Activate Fire Remnant and interrupt 
Teleportation with Searing Chains.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 19%)Bounty Hunter
* Bounty Hunter can easily keep vision on Pudge with Track, making it difficult for Pudge to hook Bounty Hunter or his team mates.
* It's difficult for Pudge to keep up with Bounty Hunter to apply 
Rot on him due to Shadow Walk.
* Shuriken Toss cancels out 
Dismember from a good range if Bounty Hunter is not the target.
Additional:
* Track can easily keep vision on Pudge, making it impossible to catch up with his Meat Hook for Bounty Hunter's teammates or him.
* It's very difficult for Pudge to use Rot on and hook Bounty Hunter due to Shadow Walk.
* 
Shuriken Toss cancels out Dismember from a good range.
Ember Spirit
* Heroes with a high degree of mobility and invisibility are hard to catch with Meat Hook: Ember Spirit, Riki, Clinkz, Queen of Pain.
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: -1.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)Bounty Hunter
* Frostbite will reveal invisible heroes for its duration, making it a good tool against any such hero (Riki, Bounty Hunter, Weaver, or Clinkz for example), or as a soft counter to Shadow Blade, if it is used first. This can be an amazing tool to ensure that Dust of Appearance is used on the unit in question, and not wasted in not catching anything.
Ember Spirit
* Crystal Maiden is extremely fragile and she's an easy target for him. She has no real disables that can lock Ember Spirit down, and all of her skill damage can be negated with Flame Guard. The damage from Searing Chains, Flame Guard, and Sleigh of Fist can easily take her down.
Bounty Hunter
* Shuriken Toss's stun is useful for cancelling Freezing Field from a distance.
* Track can be used for revealing Crystal Maiden when she uses 
Glimmer Cape.
* Jinada does burst physical damage (which is even bigger if dealt under Track's crits), which is effective due to Crystal Maiden's low HP and armor.
* Bounty Hunter likes to stay hidden from the fight and is less likely to get caught by Crystal Maiden's spells.
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 4%)Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit can deal devastating damage to illusion heroes like Terrorblade with Sleight of Fist. Terrorblade also has no way of preventing Ember Spirit from getting Activate Fire Remnant off. Additionally, Ember Spirit's ability to fight from long range as well as his wide skill set won't give many opportunities for Terrorblade to get 
Sunder off.
Additional:
* Ember Spirit can deal devastating damage to Terrorblade and his illusions with Sleight of Fist.
* Terrorblade has no disable to lock down Ember Spirit and prevent him from escaping with Fire Remnant. In addition, he doesn't like purchasing disabling items, which are the only solutions to deal with Ember Spirit.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 2%)Ember Spirit
* Disruption is not reliable enough to catch an Ember Spirit with a backup Fire Remnant.
* Sleight of Fist will also make quick work of the spawned illusions.
* Ember Spirit usually builds Eul's Scepter of Divinity to dispel Soul Catcher and Linken's Sphere to block Disruption and Demonic Purge.
* The best you can do against an Ember Spirit is to dispel his Flame Guard with your Demonic Purge.
Riki
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Bounty Hunter
* Track gives Riki a hard time, as it prevents much of his ganking capabilities.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 8%)Ember Spirit
* Searing Chains prevents usage of Timber Chain.
* Timbersaw is vulnerable to magical burst damage, which Ember Spirit provides with Fire Remnant and Flame Guard.
* Timbersaw's abilities deal pure damage, thus they cannot remove Flame Guard.
Warlock
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Ember Spirit
* A pre-placed Fire Remnant allows Ember Spirit to escape 
Upheaval.
* Flame Guard blocks 
Shadow Word's damage.
* Sleight of Fist allows Ember Spirit to attack from range, ignoring Upheaval, and Searing Chains lets him interrupt it.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 16%)Ember Spirit
* The high mobility provided by Fire Remnant makes it hard for Windranger to find a good position to land Shackleshot or a full duration of Focus Fire.
* Flame Guard deals considerable magical damage to Windranger.
Dark Seer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Ember Spirit
* Flame Guard makes Dark Seer not deal any damage with his skills to Ember Spirit.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit's Fire Remnant is an easy way to escape from Clockwerk's Power Cogs.
* Flame Guard blocks most of the magical damage Clockwerk does.
Dark Willow
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Ember Spirit
* Flame Guard blocks Dark Willow's magical burst damage, and harms her if she tries to get close to attack with Bedlam.
* Sleight of Fist and Fire Remnant makes it hard for Dark Willow to fully disable Ember Spirit.
Alchemist
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 14%)Ember Spirit
* Ember's magic damage build is able to burst down Alchemist due to his low strength gain and Alchemist's normal item pick up.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 2%)Ember Spirit
* Sleight of Fist keeps Ember Spirit invulnerable until he hits every unit in its area of effect allowing him to stall for large amounts of time against Broodmother and her large amounts of spiderlings, or potentially damaging them enough if equipped with an item to improve wave clearing such as Battle Fury or 
Maelstrom to prevent her pushes entirely.
* Flame Guard will damage any of Broodmother's spiders in an area, deterring her from attempting to kill him. It can also be used during Sleight of Fist to amplify damage done.
* Fire Remnant allows Ember Spirit an escape from Broodmother that is unaffected by her Incapacitating Bite.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 13%)Bounty Hunter

Void Spirit, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, 
Earth Spirit, moreover, if a player is familiar with how Rolling Thunder work, they can adjust their movement to avoid it entirely and of course outplay the Pangolier player.
Treant Protector
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Bounty Hunter

Pugna, 
Skywrath Mage, 
Io, Witch Doctor, etc.
Invoker
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Bounty Hunter

Monkey King
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Bounty Hunter
*

Additional:
* Track grants vision of Monkey King, even when he's in the trees.

* Because Templar Assassin does not have escape potential in lane, any support hero with roaming potential and a Dust of Appearance can be great at shutting her down early game: Earth Spirit, Spirit Breaker, Tusk, Bounty Hunter, Riki, 
Warlock.
Io
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Bounty Hunter
* Fragile heroes: Bounty Hunter has decent nuking capabilities with Shiruken Toss and Jinada thus making fragile heroes easy picks for ganking. Few examples of such heroes are:Crystal Maiden, Pugna, Skywrath Mage, Io, Witch Doctor, etc.
Mirana
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 16%)Bounty Hunter
* Heroes with spells that negate invisibility such as Bounty Hunter, 
Zeus and Slardar prevent her from saving her allies with Moonlight Shadow.
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 16%)Bounty Hunter
* Nyx Assassin, Bounty Hunter and Slark can all sneak up and kill you, Nyx being particularly deadly. Watch Slark carefully, as he can break either (but not both unless you are making a mistake) of your disables, with Dark Pact and leap out of a serpent ward ring. These heroes, however, rely heavily on escape and are themselves not very durable and none of them can survive a full lockdown with Mass Serpent Ward. Having Sentry Wards can turn you from prey to predator.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 10%)Bounty Hunter
* Heroes with mobility/escape mechanisms to dodge Ancient Apparition abilites, or to easily jump on him: Riki, Queen of Pain, Phantom Assassin, 
Windranger, Bounty Hunter, Spirit Breaker, Night Stalker, Storm Spirit, Juggernaut, etc.
Chen
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 0%)Bounty Hunter
* Invisibility heroes can sneak past Chen's creeps and pick him off: Nyx Assassin, Weaver, Bounty Hunter Riki.
Pugna
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 4%)Bounty Hunter
* Fragile heroes: Bounty Hunter has decent nuking capabilities with Shiruken Toss and Jinada thus making fragile heroes easy picks for ganking. Few examples of such heroes are:Crystal Maiden, Pugna, Skywrath Mage, Io, Witch Doctor, etc.
Razor
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 6%)Ember Spirit
* Any hero with teleport abilities (e.g. Ember Spirit, Storm Spirit) can easily break Static Link.
Lycan
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 3%)Ember Spirit
* Heroes that heavily depend on illusions or summons, (Naga Siren, 
Terrorblade, Phantom Lancer, Lycan,...) are vulnerable to Sleight of Fist and even more so if Ember Spirit has Battle Fury.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 1%)Ember Spirit
* Heroes with high mobility can be prevented from using it to their advantage with Earthbind, even if they pack a dangerous arsenal: Earth Spirit, Ember Spirit, Storm Spirit, 
Nature's Prophet, Phantom Assassin, Riki, Anti-Mage, Weaver.
* See items and abilities disabled by roots
Ember Spirit
* Meepo is quite fragile in the early game and can be easily taken down by Flame Guard's and Searing Chains' damage. Later on, Meepo is very vulnerable to Sleight of Fist's damage due to Battle Fury's cleave on multiple Meepos.
Additional:
* Sleight of Fist boosted by Battle Fury and 
Daedalus makes quick work of Meepo if clones are crowded around each other.
* Searing Chains interrupts Meepo's initiating because Meepo's clones do not have spell immunity.
Shadow Fiend
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 18%)Ember Spirit
* 
Shadowraze can easily remove the protection from Flame Guard and kill Ember Spirit due to his low health.
* Ember Spirit is very vulnerable to physical damage from 
Necromastery.
Bounty Hunter
* Bounty Hunter can absolutely destroy a Shadow Fiend's game by ganking his midlane with Shadow Walk, Jinada and Shuriken Toss.
* If his lane goes bad, a Shadow Fiend usually goes to the jungle. Follow him with Shadow Walk and take half of his experience.
* Due to its ministun, Shuriken Toss is a good way to interrupt Shadow Fiend's long cast animation on 
Requiem of Souls.
Additional:
* Shuriken Toss can be used to cancel Requiem of Souls.
* Shadow Walk and Jinada allow Bounty Hunter to gank Shadow Fiend early on
* Track prevents Shadow Fiend from escaping with Shadow Blade.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 8%)Bounty Hunter
* Spirit Breaker's 
Charge of Darkness semi-reveals Bounty Hunter, taking away his element of surprise for the duration of the charge. Also, as Charge of Darkness shows Bounty Hunter's position, Spirit Breaker's allies can proceed to gank Bounty Hunter while he is roaming alone.
Ember Spirit
* Searing Chains can stop Charge of Darkness if timed correctly.
* Activate Fire Remnant can be used to escape an approaching Spirit Breaker, or lead Spirit Breaker into a bad situation.
* Activate Fire Remnant and Sleight of Fist allows Ember Spirit to dodge Charge of Darkness if timed correctly.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Bounty Hunter
* 
Rupture can turn Bounty Hunter's mobility against him, and prevents him from escaping with Shadow Walk due to the potentially heavy damage.
* 
Thirst can prevent Bounty Hunter from escaping with Shadow Walk should Bounty Hunter's health become low enough, as it provides True Sight.
Ember Spirit
* Fire Remnant allows Ember Spirit to escape Bloodseeker while Ruptured.
Additional:
* Fire Remnant allows Ember Spirit to escape while Ruptured.
Weaver
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)Bounty Hunter
* Weaver with Time Lapse
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:
* Abaddon with Aphotic Shield and Borrowed Time
* Huskar with Life Break
* Juggernaut with Blade Fury
* Legion Commander with Press the Attack
* Lifestealer with Rage and Infest
* Naga Siren with Mirror Image
* Omniknight with Heavenly Grace
* Oracle with Fortune's End and False Promise
* Phantom Lancer with Doppelganger
* Slark with Dark Pact
* Ursa with Enrage
* Weaver with Time Lapse
* Tidehunter with Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Bounty Hunter
* Bounty Hunter has a cheap way to break Linken's Sphere and keep track of Weaver while he is using Shukuchi, though both can be dispelled with Time Lapse.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Bounty Hunter
* 
Tempest Double dispels Track.
* Bounty Hunter also has no area of effect abilities to help with the illusions.
Ember Spirit
* Sleight of Fist, allows Ember Spirit to destroy all of Phantom Lancer's illusions.
* Flame Guard also deals significant damage to illusions, and protects against Spirit Lance.
* Phantom Rush is unable to catch Ember Spirit when he teleports to his Fire Remnants.
Additional:
* Sleight of Fist is the natural counter to Phantom Lancer's army of illusions, especially when combined with Battle Fury.
Ursa
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 16%)Bounty Hunter
* Ursa with Enrage
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:

* Oracle with Fortune's End and False Promise
* Phantom Lancer with Doppelganger
* Slark with Dark Pact
* Ursa with Enrage
* Weaver with Time Lapse
* Tidehunter with Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Bounty Hunter
* Low mobility heroes: Heroes with no/little means of traveling fast have difficulty getting to/away from Bounty Hunter due to his slowing Jinada and hastening Track. Few examples of such heroes are: Crystal Maiden, Sniper, Ursa, Witch Doctor, etc.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 3%)Bounty Hunter
* Phantasm dispels Track, and the illusions make it difficult to Track the real Chaos Knight.
* Bounty Hunter is fragile and can easily be killed by Chaos Knight and Phantasm's illusions.
Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit is evasive and can dodge close encounters with melee heroes like Chaos Knight. Ember Spirit can't be caught with the slow from 
Reality Rift, and Flame Guard and Sleight of Fist can bring Phantasm's illusions down quickly.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 19%)Bounty Hunter
* Juggernaut with Blade Fury
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:
* Abaddon with Aphotic Shield and Borrowed Time

Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 2%)Bounty Hunter
* Naga Siren with Mirror Image
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:
* Abaddon with Aphotic Shield and Borrowed Time
* Huskar with Life Break
* Juggernaut with Blade Fury
* Legion Commander with Press the Attack
* Lifestealer with Rage and Infest
* Naga Siren with Mirror Image

* Oracle with Fortune's End and False Promise
* Phantom Lancer with Doppelganger
* Slark with Dark Pact
* Ursa with Enrage
* Weaver with Time Lapse
* Tidehunter with Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Additional:
* Bounty Hunter is a single target damage dealer, so he will not fare well against Naga Siren. He may try to Track her, but her Mirror Image will dispel the effect. Ensnare also reveals invisible units while they're rooted, putting Bounty Hunter at a disadvantage.
Ember Spirit
* Cleave heroes will clear her illusions. Such heroes include Sven, 
Magnus, Dragon Knight in Elder Dragon Form, Ember Spirit (via item), Phantom Assassin (via talent or item), etc.
Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 7%)Ember Spirit
* With 
Vendetta, Nyx Assassin can move closely to Ember Spirit when he's farming with his Flame Guard and use 
Spiked Carapace with 
Impale to provide a reliable and long disable.
* 
Mana Burn is also good, as Ember Spirit relies on his limited mana pool for the early to midgame.
Additional:
* Spiked Carapace can be easily triggered by Flame Guard or Battle Fury, setting up a deadly Impale.
Bounty Hunter
* Nyx Assassin wants to start ganking as soon as he gets his Vendetta. Keeping him Tracked prevents him from ganking, and thus from doing his job in the game.
* Nyx Assassin has a lot of armor and health regen, making the nuke damage from Shuriken Toss very good against him.
Additional:
* Track hinders Nyx Assassin's ganking attempts with Vendetta, making him an easy kill for gold as well.
Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit does minimal damage to Huskar until the very late game.
