Axe
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Bristleback
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 8%)Chaos Knight
* Quill Spray quickly destroys Chaos Knight's 
Phantasms.
Oracle
* Fortune's End cannot dispel 
Warpath stacks on Bristleback or 
Quill Spray stacks on allies.
* 
Bristleback can heavily reduce Oracle's damage output. With it, Oracle may accidentally heal Bristleback with Purifying Flames, especially if Bristleback has bonus magic resistance.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Oracle
* Heroes who are not easily crippled by Fate's Edict or Fortune's End, such as 
Timbersaw, or those who can dispel them, such as 
Phantom Lancer, can kill Oracle unhindered.
Chaos Knight
* Chaos Knight's single target abilities are difficult to target against Phantom Lancer's illusions.
* Chaos Knight's lack of mobility makes him an easy target for Phantom Lancer to 
Phantom Rush and drain his already low mana pool.
Additional:
* 
Juxtapose allows Phantom Lancer to overwhelm Chaos Knight due to his single-target abilities.
* 
Doppelganger can be used to dodge Chaos Bolt.
* 
Spirit Lance can be used to harass Chaos Knight during the early game.
* Since Phantom Lancer builds 
Diffusal Blade often, it can quickly drain Chaos Knight of all his mana, leaving him unable to cast spells.
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 13%)Chaos Knight
* Anti-Mage commonly builds 
Battle Fury, which can deal with Phantasm illusions easily.
* 
Counterspell, if timed right, will turn Chaos Bolt against the Knight, and can set up for a kill if he is not careful.
* Even if Counterspell is on cooldown, 
Blink can almost always dodge a Chaos Bolt because of its slow projectile.
* 
Mana Break will quickly drain Chaos Knight's mana.
Oracle
* Anti-Mage can withstand magical burst damage much better than other carries, making him effective against nukers: 
Lich, 
Necrophos, 
Oracle, and 
Leshrac.
Additional:
* Oracle has minimal damage potential against Anti-Mage due to Counterspell, and may even have some ability damage reflected at himself.
* Anti-Mage can easily overwhelm Oracle with Mana Break and 
Mana Void.
* Blink allows Anti-Mage to easily chase and take advantage of Oracle's low mobility.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 8%)Chaos Knight
* 
Reactive Armor helps Timbersaw to endure the damage from 
Chaos Bolt and 
Reality Rift combo.
* Timbersaw's large amount of pure damage AoE nukes clears Chaos Knight's illusions quickly, drastically reducing his damage.
Additional:
* Strong area damage, particularly from 
Whirling Death and 
Chakram, lets Timbersaw clear out illusions quickly.
* Whirling Death directly reduces Strength from both Chaos Knight and his Phantasm illusions, reducing both the damage output and raw health that the hero relies on.
* Reactive Armor quickly builds stacks against Phantasm illusions, making Timbersaw hard to kill.
* 
Timber Chain allows Timbersaw to escape while surrounded.
Oracle
* Heroes who are not easily crippled by Fate's Edict or Fortune's End, such as Timbersaw, or those who can dispel them, such as Phantom Lancer, can kill Oracle unhindered.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 2%)Oracle
* Oracle cannot easily deal with swarms of units, making him weak against heroes like Phantom Lancer or 
Broodmother.
Chaos Knight
* Illusion-based and multi-unit heroes can take advantage of Chaos Knight's lack of area damage: 
Naga Siren, Phantom Lancer, Broodmother
Enigma
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 8%)Chaos Knight
* The area of effect damage from Midnight Pulse and Black Hole help deal with 
Chaos Knight's illusions.
Additional:
* 
Black Hole usually catches Chaos Knight with all his illusions.
* 
Midnight Pulse deals damage based on max health, quickly killing Phantasm illusions.
Puck
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 17%)Chaos Knight
* Puck's area of effect nukes in the form of 
Illusory Orb and 
Waning Rift clears Phantasm illusions from the early game to mid game.
* 
Phase Shift can be used to disjoint Chaos Bolt.
Abaddon
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 5%)Chaos Knight
* Abaddon could punish Chaos Knight for using his Phantasm and Reality Rift combo on him with 
Aphotic Shield. Additionally, it provides extra protection against Chaos Knight's potential to take Abaddon down quickly.
* Furthermore, Abaddon's 
Borrowed Time makes it utterly impossible to burst Abaddon down, effectively reducing the amount of targets Chaos Knight can threaten by 1 for the entire game.
Gyrocopter
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Chaos Knight
* Flak Cannon destroys Chaos Knight's illusions very quickly.
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Chaos Knight
* 
Wukong's Command and 
Boundless Strike combo can easily cause havoc on Chaos Knight by destroying all of his powerful illusions.
* Chaos Knight without Phantasm cannot deal with 
Jingu Mastery at all.
Tidehunter
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 10%)Chaos Knight
* 
Ravage damages and disables Chaos Knight's army.
* 
Anchor Smash deals respectable area damage at early levels and lowers Chaos Knight's damage.
* 
Kraken Shell dispels Chaos Bolt and Reality Rift while providing protection from damage.
Brewmaster
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 1%)Chaos Knight
* Storm's Dispel Magic combined with Thunder Clap deals high damage against Chaos Knight's illusions even in the late game.
* Chaos Knight's reliance on physical damage is easily hindered by Drunken Brawler.
* Chaos Knight's lack of area effect and mobility makes him easily overwhelmed by Primal Split.
Additional:
* 
Dispel Magic from {U:Storm} can instantly kill the Phantasm army early on, and can still deal a lot of damage to them late game, revealing the real Chaos Knight.
Winter Wyvern
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 7%)Chaos Knight
* 
Cold Embrace protects targets of Reality Rift.
* 
Winter's Curse turns Phantasm illusions against Chaos Knight or a teammate.
* 
Splinter Blast deals decent area damage to Phantasm illusions.
* 
Arctic Burn's percentage-based damage quickly wears down Chaos Knight's health.
Additional:
* Winter Wyvern can make Chaos Knight's illusions attack the real one, provided the player knows who it is.
* Alternatively, Winter's Curse can make Chaos Knight and all his illusions attack one of his allies.
* Cold Embrace protects ally who is focused by Chaos Knight.
* Splinter Blast deals decent area damage to Chaos Knight's illusions.
Earthshaker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 12%)Chaos Knight
* Echo Slam's damage potential increases due to Chaos Knight's Phantasm illusions.
Additional:
* 
Echo Slam will deal a colossal amount of damage to your army, as will 
Fissure at lower levels.
* The area stuns from 
Aftershock will always slow down your illusions, since they can't have spell immunity.
Lich
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)Chaos Knight
* Chain Frost can eliminate Chaos Knight's Phantasm army, especially after he clumped up using Reality Rift.
* Frost Shield will heavily reduce his army's effectiveness.
Additional:
* Lich's 
Chain Frost, especially after obtaining its respective talent that provides unlimited bounces, can take out all of Chaos Knight's illusions quickly.
* An 
Aghanim's Scepter-upgraded 
Sinister Gaze can hypnotize Chaos Knight and his illusions while also draining his already low mana pool.
Dragon Knight
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* 
Dragon Blood's armor bonus greatly reduces the damage dealt by Phantasm.
* 
Breathe Fire and 
Elder Dragon Form's splash damage quickly destroy illusions and reduces their damage output.
Spectre
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Oracle
* Oracle's burst damage is ineffective against 
Dispersion.
* Disarm provided by Fate's Edict is not as significant debilitation for Spectre as it might be for other carries since She can do damage even without landing attacks.
Kunkka
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 3%)Chaos Knight
* Tidebringer, Torrent and Ghostship destroys Chaos Knight's Phantasm army all through the game.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 2%)Chaos Knight
* Illusion-based and multi-unit heroes can take advantage of Chaos Knight's lack of area damage: Naga Siren, Phantom Lancer, Broodmother
Clinkz
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 4%)Oracle
* Heroes who can take advantage of Oracle's low mobility or catch him out of position, such as 
Clinkz and 
Anti-Mage, can easily pick him off.
Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)Chaos Knight
* Illusion based heroes (like Chaos Knight and 
Terrorblade) can't use their illusion beneficially against Sanity's Eclipse's high AoE burst damage.
Sand King
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Chaos Knight
* Because of his massive AoE damage, Sand King is very effective against illusion heroes: Chaos Knight, Phantom Lancer, Terrorblade,...
Additional:
* Sand King's massive area damage output, particularly 
Epicenter, allows him to quickly take down Chaos Knight and his illusions.
* He can apply 
Caustic Finale to illusions with attacks for extra damage.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 16%)Chaos Knight
* As long as Windranger is able to identify the real hero among the illusions, heroes relying on them can be easily tagged with Focus Fire: Chaos Knight, Terrorblade, Phantom Lancer, Naga Siren.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 17%)Oracle
* Heroes with long disables, like 
Lion, 
Night Stalker, or 
Legion Commander, can prevent Oracle from using spells or items.
Chaos Knight
* One of Lion's level 20 talents lets Mana Drain affect 2 secondary targets. This can make things difficult for heroes like Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, and Terrorblade who rely on illusion armies.
* Mana Drain and Hex instantly kill any illusions. Finger of Death upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter also shreds most illusions.
* One of Lion's level 20 talents lets Mana Drain affect 2 secondary targets. This can make things difficult for heroes like Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, and Terrorblade who rely on illusion armies.
Additional:
* 
Mana Drain is a real problem to Chaos Knight in the early game, considering his already low mana pool.
* Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Finger of Death is an AoE ability, which can deal a tremendous amount of damage to his illusions.
* Lion has two abilities that can instantly kill illusions. Provided that he does not get stunned by Chaos Bolt first, Lion can render Phantasm near-useless.
Oracle
* Lion is extremely dependent on his abilities. Silences like 
Silencer's 
Last Word, magic resistance like Oracle's 
Fate's Edict, and dispels like Legion Commander's 
Press the Attack all make his abilities less effective.
Elder Titan
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 1%)Oracle
* 
Elder Titan's 
Echo Stomp can turn into a 5 second stun on an ally under the effect of False Promise, as it delays all damage and makes it impossible to break the damage threshold of Echo Stomp.
Pangolier
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 12%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes who are illusion based, or even heroes who frequently build Manta Style can be cleared quickly by Pangolier's high damage, or lose their damage ouput because of Lucky Shot: Chaos Knight, Naga Siren
Centaur Warrunner
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 3%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes who are reliant on illusions: Chaos Knight, Phantom Lancer, Naga Siren.
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 12%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes who are reliant on illusions or summons: Chaos Knight, Broodmother, Naga Siren.
Snapfire
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes reliant on illusions or summons: Broodmother, Chaos Knight, Naga Siren.
Tiny
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 5%)Chaos Knight
* Melee carries will have a hard time against Tiny's Craggy Exterior: 
Phantom Assassin, Chaos Knight, 
Juggernaut.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 12%)Chaos Knight
* With Aghanim's Scepter, Tinker's Laser completely stops Chaos Knight's damage, forcing him to buy either a Black King Bar for his own survivability while leaving his illusions still vulnerable, or a Monkey King Bar leaving him still vulnerable to Tinker's nukes, though improving his damage.
* Tinker rarely finds himself in the middle of a fight, which is where Chaos Knight typically thrives, and even in the rare cases of being so, at level 3 Tinker's constant rearm and blink away can kite and dodge Chaos Knight's spells reliably, so Chaos Knight has very little catch against Tinker's mobility. This gives Tinker impunity to create more chaos in a teamfight than Chaos Knight can control, laying down the field with March of the Machines and constantly being hit by rockets and lasers.
Additional:
* Tinker's Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Laser can blind him and all of his Phantasm illusions.
Chaos Knight
* Illusion heroes, such as Naga Siren, Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Terrorblade will become strong against Tinker in the late game when Tinker's only area of effect damage, March of the Machines, ceases to kill illusions quickly. Without Aghanim's Scepter Tinker is forced to defensively disarm heroes with Laser, leaving illusions free to deal physical damage which Tinker's low armor makes highly effective. In addition, 
Mjollnir or Battle Fury, two common pickups against illusion heroes, don't work well on Tinker at all.
Magnus
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* Using Reality Rift sets up a 
Reverse Polarity on Chaos Knight and his illusions.
* 
Shockwave and 
Skewer kill Phantasm's illusions quickly, as can 
Empower cast on a melee carry.
Additional:
* All Magnus abilities are very good against Chaos Knight's Phantasm illusions.
Oracle
* Any hero who can counter-initiate in anticipation without getting caught in Reverse Polarity: 
Sven, 
Omniknight, 
Enigma, 
Luna, Naga Siren, 
Mars, 
Jakiro, 
Venomancer, Elder Titan, 
Faceless Void, 
Rubick, 
Keeper of the Light, 
Pugna, 
Invoker, 
Spectre, 
Alchemist, 
Treant Protector, 
Lina, Oracle, 
Zeus, 
Shadow Shaman, 
Phoenix, 
Razor, 
Huskar, 
Batrider, 
Kunkka, 
Tidehunter, 
Wraith King, 
Sand King.
Sven
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 43% pickrate: 1%)Chaos Knight
* Great Cleave is very effective against Chaos Knight's illusions.
* Storm Hammer's radius can catch all of Chaos Knight's illusions at once, especially after Reality Rift.
* Warcry shields Sven and his teammates against Chaos Knight's burst physical damage.
Additional:
* 
Storm Hammer's faster projectile speed and cast time allows Sven to stun Chaos Knight and his illusions before he can cast Chaos Bolt.
* 
Warcry's armor bonus counteracts Reality Rift's debuff and reduces Chaos Knight's damage output.
* 
Great Cleave and 
God's Strength devastates Phantasm illusions.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict cripples many heroes who rely on attacks, such as Phantom Assassin, Sven, or 
Enchantress, without a dispel or a 
Black King Bar.
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 41% pickrate: 3%)Oracle
* 
Time Walk and 
Backtrack allow Faceless Void to easily negate Oracle's burst damage.
* 
Time Dilation is effective against Oracle's low-cooldown spells. Although dispellable with Fortune's End, it can still catch Oracle off guard if Fortune's End is on cooldown.
Oracle
* Any hero that can nullify effects of Chronosphere: (Omniknight, Keeper of the Light with Aghanim's Scepter during daytime, 
Winter Wyvern), banishing him or Faceless Void (
Outworld Destroyer, 
Shadow Demon, 
Earth Spirit with Aghanim's Scepter) or protecting him in other ways (
Dazzle, Oracle, 
Abaddon) can greatly limit Chronosphere's potential.
Legion Commander
[wiki] rating: 0.2 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 11%)Oracle
* Heroes with long disables, like Lion, Night Stalker, or Legion Commander, can prevent Oracle from using spells or items.
Chaos Knight
* Heroes who rely on illusions will see them destroyed easily by Overwhelming Odds: Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Terrorblade, Naga Siren
Oracle
* Fate's Edict prevents Legion Commander from attacking for a few seconds, potentially saving Oracle's ally.
* 
Fortune's End dispels Press the Attack's healing and attack speed buff, as well as the movement speed bonus from Overwhelming Odds.
* 
False Promise protects allies and prevents Legion Commander from winning Duels and gaining bonus damage.
Additional:
* Provided that the enemy team does not have an 
Axe, Oracle can guarantee that his ally survives for the duration of the Duel with False Promise and has decent nuke potential to help ally to win a Duel. He can also disarm Legion Commander with Fate's Edict.
* Oracle can dispel enemy buffs like 
Overwhelming Odds and Press the Attack with Fortune's End.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 16%)Chaos Knight
* While Chaos Knight can land far away from Rubick due to 
Telekinesis, it can be counteracted by Reality Rift.
* Phantasm dispels 
Fade Bolt's damage reduction debuff.
* Rubick is fragile and can easily be killed by Chaos Knight and Phantasm's illusions, before he retaliates.
Oracle
* Oracle's high magic damage output can easily take down Rubick's low health pool.
* Because Oracle likes to combine his spells together, the only good 
Spell Steal target he gives is False Promise. This scenario can be avoided by shift queueing Fortune's End and casting it immediately, as it has no cast point, or by staying in the back line of fights if out of mana.
* As a position based hero, Rubick will have a very hard time against Fortune's End due to its absurd range and very long root duration.
Techies
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 8%)Oracle
* Since Techies' skills are all magical damage, casting Fate's Edict immediately upon hearing the warning sound from 
Proximity Mines and 
Blast Off! can render Oracle or an ally immune to the burst damage from these skills.
* If timed correctly, 
Remote Mines can also be countered using the same technique.
Additional:
* Fate's Edict gives 100% magic resistance, which prevents most of Techies' damage and his Fortune's End dispels Stasis Trap root.
Chaos Knight
* Phantasm's illusions can be used to push towers and force Techies to detonate Remote Mines.
* Phantasm's illusions can be used to sweep Proximity Mines and 
Stasis Traps.
* Chaos Knight can easily kill a lone Techies before they Blast Off!.
Ogre Magi
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 14%)Oracle
* Fate's Edict gives full immunity from Ogre Magi's mostly magical damage.
* Fortune's End can dispel Ignite (when used on allies) and Bloodlust (when used on enemies).
* False Promise can dispel Ignite and Fireblast.
Chaos Knight
* Phantasm dispels Ignite and makes targeting the real Chaos Knight much harder.
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 12%)Chaos Knight
* Chaos Knight's tanky illusions easily take advantage of Troll Warlord's lack of AoE damage.
* Chaos Bolt can stun Troll for up to 4 seconds and Reality Rift prevents Troll Warlord from chasing down foes.
* Phantasm increases Chaos Knight's physical damage output up to 4 times and can easily kill Troll Warlord before he has a chance to use Battle Trance or a Black King Bar.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict can disarm Troll, rendering him useless in a teamfight, especially if he has already used Battle Trance.
* Fortune's End and 
Purifying Flames can provide ample magic damage to help burst down Troll Warlord quickly in the early to mid game.
* False Promise can save an ally from Troll Warlord's initiation, forcing him to switch targets and lose his Fervor stacks, or waste time during Battle Trance.
Wraith King
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Oracle
* Heroes with area dispel can kill multiple skeletons at once: 
Brewmaster, Oracle.
Chaos Knight
* Wraith King has no form of AoE to clear Chaos Knight's illusions from Phantasm.
* Wraith King is very vulnerable if he reincarnates in the middle of his illusions.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 19%)Chaos Knight
* While Blade Fury is on cooldown, Juggernaut can easily killed by a standard Chaos Bolt & Reality Rift combo.
* Phantasm illusions can tank 
Omnislash.
Oracle
* Heroes with abilities that can save teammates are also effective such as Shadow Demon, Dazzle, Oracle, 
Bane, Pugna, 
Tusk, Winter Wyvern, 
Io, 
Underlord, Treant Protector and Keeper of the Light.
Beastmaster
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 6%)Chaos Knight
* Single-target disablers will have difficulty locking down a Chaos Knight with Phantasm active: Bane, 
Beastmaster, 
Bloodseeker, 
Clockwerk, 
Doom, Shadow Shaman.
Oracle
* False Promise effectively nullifies Primal Roar's single-target initiation on allies.
* Purifying Flames kills Beastmaster's Hawk instantly and Boar with two casts.
Bounty Hunter
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 10%)Oracle
* 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.
Chaos Knight
* 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.
Razor
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 6%)Chaos Knight
* Razor has no way to deal with Chaos Knight's multiple illusions from Phantasm.
Oracle
* Fortune's End can catch out or impair position-based heroes with low mobility, such as 
Sniper or Razor.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 16%)Oracle
* Fate's Edict cripples many heroes who rely on attacks, such as Phantom Assassin, Sven, or Enchantress, without a dispel or a Black King Bar.
Chaos Knight
* Heroes with illusions and summons can be hard for Phantom Assassin to deal with, as she lacks any AoE abilities to deal with them: Broodmother, Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight.
Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Chaos Knight
* Skywrath mage also has a terrible time fighting against anything that isn't a hero. As Mystic Flare only affects heroes, his skills are mostly target-based and he has terrible strength and agility, he can easily be kited or harassed by illusion-based heroes like Chaos Knight and Phantom Lancer, or by Heroes that summon other units like 
Lone Druid, 
Lycan and Beastmaster.
Oracle
* Heroes with little health or magic resistance are easily picked off with Oracle's magic burst, such as 
Skywrath Mage, 
Crystal Maiden, or Enchantress.
Bane
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 3%)Oracle
* Heroes with dispels can dispel Bane's disables from their allies: Oracle, Legion Commander, Omniknight
Chaos Knight
* Heroes with illusions and summons can swarm Bane, who has no area abilities: Broodmother, Chaos Knight, 
Nature's Prophet, Phantom Lancer, Terrorblade
Additional:
* Phantasm's illusions make it difficult for Bane to target Chaos Knight with 
Nightmare, 
Brain Sap and 
Fiend's Grip.
* Chaos Bolt is a comparatively low cooldown tool to interrupt Fiend's Grip.
* Nightmare can be transferred by Phantasm illusions.
Lone Druid
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 1%)Chaos Knight
* Reality Rift lets Chaos Knight bypass the Spirit Bear and jump onto Lone Druid.
* The Spirit Bear's lack of scaling means it dies quickly to Chaos Knight during the late-game.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 19%)Chaos Knight
* Phantasm's illusions make it difficult to land 
Meat Hook and 
Dismember.
* Chaos Bolt is a comparatively low cooldown tool to interrupt Dismember.
* Chaos Strike's lifesteal offsets 
Rot's damage.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 8%)Chaos Knight
* Chaos Knight's high health pool makes him resistant to Zeus' burst damage. Phantasm can dispel 
Veil of Discord, a typical item purchased by Zeus.
* Zeus is easily overwhelmed by Chaos Knight's strong illusions, as Arc Lightning is not enough to kill them fast enough to have any impact.
* Zeus' low base armor makes him extremely vulnerable to Chaos Knight's high damage output and armor reduction.
Batrider
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Oracle
* False Promise dispels Flaming Lasso.
* Fortune's End can root Batrider after he uses Flaming Lasso. It can also dispel Sticky Napalm and Flamebreak.
* Fate's Edict when used on a Lasso'd target will leave them immune to magical damage, making it difficult to burst them quickly before the Lasso ends.
Viper
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 6%)Chaos Knight
* Viper has no response to the standard initiation combo of Reality Rift into Chaos Bolt.
* Phantasm can eliminate Viper almost instantly with its damage output.
Additional:
* As Viper focuses on single-target damage, he has trouble fighting off Phantasm illusions.
* Reality Rift counteracts Viper's slows and reduces his durability.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* Reality Rift will disable Drow Ranger's Marksmanship, along with Chaos Bolt he can keep her locked for enough time to be killed.
* Phantasm's illusions are hard for Drow Ranger to deal with as she lacks of AoE damage.
Slark
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 13%)Chaos Knight
* Dark Pact is minimally effective against Phantasm illusions, and Slark lacks area damage otherwise.
* 
Pounce can be counteracted by Reality Rift.
* Slark is naturally frail and dies quickly to Chaos Knight's burst damage before he can build 
Essence Shift stacks.
* Be aware, however, that 
Shadow Dance can make Slark hard to kill as he can't be targeted during its duration.
Additional:
* Phantasms have enough health to survive Dark Pact, and Slark has no other source of AoE damage to deal with them.
Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Chaos Knight
* Chaos Knight's Level 20 Talent: Reality Rift Pierces Spell Immunity allows for quick bursting down of Lifestealer during his Rage.
* Phantasm dispels Open Wounds.
* Lifestealer has no way of dealing with Chaos Knight's illusions.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Oracle
* Oracle's reliance on spamming his spells can be easily hindered by Silencer's Arcane Curse.
* Last Word and Global Silence negates Oracle's attempt to save his allies with his spells.
* Fate's Edict is useless against Glaives of Wisdom's pure damage.
Chaos Knight
* Casting Phantasm before a fight minimizes the disruption from 
Global Silence.
* Because Chaos Knight generally relies on attack damage, Silencer's spells won't be as effective against him.
Oracle
* Fortune's End can nullify 
Arcane Curse, Last Word, and Global Silence, if cast at the right time with the right targets.
* Fate's Edict can prevent Silencer from attacking, which he relies on with 
Glaives of Wisdom, for a lot of his damage.
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes that have high health but little to no magic resistance are easy prey for Necrophos, as no matter how high they build their health up, Reaper's Scythe will kill them outright as long as they fall under a certain threshold, and Heartstopper Aura will deal the same amount of damage regardless, decaying their health the longer they stay within range. As such, Strength heroes like Chaos Knight, 
Centaur Warrunner or 
Magnus are good targets for his ultimate.
Chaos Knight
* Illusions make it difficult for Necrophos to target his Reaper's Scythe correctly, thus giving illusion heroes like Chaos Knight or Naga Siren an edge against Necrophos.
Oracle
* Fortune's End can dispel 
Ghost Shroud, rending Necrophos vulnerable to physical damage. Also it's worth noting that Necrophos takes additional magic damage when in Ethereal state, which makes Purifying Flames a powerful nuke against him.
* Fate's Edict fully negates the damage from 
Reaper's Scythe, which its own delayed animation makes it relatively easy to predict and nullify.
Additional:

* Fate's Edict and False Promise can protect an ally from Reaper's Scythe.
* Oracle can dispel Ghost Shroud with Fortune's End.
Slardar
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Oracle
* Fortune's End applies a basic dispel which can be used to dispel Corrosive Haze, or even Slardar's own Guardian Sprint.
* False Promise is able to dispel Corrosive Haze and Slithereen Crush stun/slow from any allies Oracle chooses to cast it on.
* Fate's Edict can also be cast on Slardar to prevent him from proccing his Bash of the Deep.
Leshrac
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Oracle
* Oracle's Fate's Edict will protect an ally from Leshrac's nuking damage.
* Oracle's False Promise can dispel Leshrac's stun and slow from his abilities, allowing an ally to escape.
* Fortune's End can stop Leshrac from chasing opponents or running away.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 10%)Oracle
* False Promise can prevent the shatter from 
Ice Blast and Fate's Edict can protect an ally from the magical damage over time for a while.
* Oracle can deny allies who are frostbitten. If he uses Purifying Flames to reach the shatter threshold, it will count as a deny.
* Fortune's End can dispel 
Cold Feet on affected allies, preventing them from getting frozen.
Additional:
* False Promise can dispel the stun from Cold Feet and can save an ally that's about to shatter from Ice Blast, even allowing healing with Purifying Flames by delaying it until after the debuff expires.
* Purifying Flames allows Oracle to deny his allies if they're affected by Ice Blast. If he brings his allies' health to or below the shatter threshold, it will count as him denying the ally. However, this does not work on Oracle himself.
* Fate's Edict provides 100% magic resistance, making it good against all of Ancient Apparition's abilities at all stages of the game.
* Fortune's End can dispel Cold Feet from allies.
Dark Willow
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Oracle
* Fortune's End can easily dispel 
Cursed Crown before it times out and stuns. He can also save a stunned ally with False Promise.
* Fate's Edict can easily negate 
Bedlam's over-time damage, since the spell provides no form of control. Similarly, he can also negate the magic burst from 
Shadow Realm.
* Fortune's End can dispel the fear effect from 
Terrorize, and it can remove the root from 
Bramble Maze if you're quick enough. Be mindful that Fortune's End only dispels your allies' debuffs on the primary target.
Additional:
* Fortune's End not being disjointable is almost an ensured disable if Dark Willow tries to escape with Shadow Realm. Dispels Cursed Crown and Terrorize.
* Fate's Edict negates all her magic damage in case she catches a single hero.
* False Promise's strong dispel removes Dark Willow's disables.
Arc Warden
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* Chaos Knight can dispel Flux with Phantasm.
* Chaos Knight can use Reality Rift to pull Arc Warden out of Magnetic Field.
* Once Chaos Knight jumps on Arc Warden with Reality Rift, Arc Warden struggles to escape due to low mobility.
Doom
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 2%)Oracle
* Supports with useful teamfight or contribution spells will be helpless against Doom: Dazzle, Oracle, 
Warlock.
Oracle
* Heroes with the ability to heal allies, or those with good defensive abilities: 
Chen, Dazzle, Io, Oracle, Omniknight, 
Witch Doctor, Winter Wyvern, Abaddon, etc.

* Heroes with dispels: Legion Commander, Oracle, Slark
Vengeful Spirit
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 3%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes who relies on illusions and summons (Beastmaster, Chaos Knight, etc.).
Enchantress
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 1%)Oracle

* Heroes with high magical or pure damage will bypass Bulwark: Timbersaw, 
Dark Willow, Enigma, Invoker, Pugna, Skywrath Mage, 
Tinker, Zeus, Oracle.

[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Chaos Knight
* Chaos Knight with Phantasm
* Heroes that can dodge Glimpse:
* 
Puck with Phase Shift

Tricks of the Trade

Sleight of Fist and 
Activate Fire Remnant

* Naga Siren with Mirror Image
* Tusk with 
Snowball
* Juggernaut with Omnislash
* Brewmaster with 
Primal Split
* Lifestealer with Infest
* Phoenix with 
Supernova
Additional:
* Phantasm removes 
Glimpse and dispels 
Thunder Strike. Additionally, the Phantasm illusions make it difficult to use Glimpse and Thunder Strike on the real Chaos Knight.
* Disruptor's lack of mobility, combined with his lack of innate defense, sets him up for a Reality Rift and a beatdown by Chaos Knight and his illusions.
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes the make heavy use of illusions, like Chaos Knight, Phantom Lancer, or Spectre can suffer from Crystal Maiden, as Freezing Field can quickly kill off the entire horde if not stopped.
Chaos Knight
* Innately fragile heroes will die almost instantly to Reality Rift while Chaos Knight has illusions active: 
Drow Ranger, Bane, Necrophos, Crystal Maiden.
Oracle
* Heroes with little health or magic resistance are easily picked off with Oracle's magic burst, such as Skywrath Mage, Crystal Maiden, or Enchantress.

* Fortune's End and False Promise easily dispel many crippling debuffs, such as Venomancer's 
Venomous Gale, or Skywrath Mage's 
Ancient Seal.
Additional:
* Fortune's End can dispel Venomous Gale and Poison Sting from allies.
* Fate's Edict grants 100% magic resistance to target, inhibiting the damage from Venomancer abilities.
Void Spirit
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 13%)Oracle
* Heroes that can purge his slow and disables are very difficult to go on and their team: Abaddon, Oracle.
Warlock
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* Warlock is a very strong hero when positioned correctly, and his long cast range helps him with this. However, some Heroes might disrupt or sneakily pass through your allies and deal with you, preventing you from doing your job. Such heroes include Chaos Knight, 
Spirit Breaker, Riki, and some others.
Undying
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* Chaos Knight's multiple illusions from Phantasm can destroy Undying, as Soul Rip can't offset the damage from the high amount of damage from his illusions.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes with illusion and clone abilities may confuse Bloodseeker, causing him to waste time in fights: Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, 
Arc Warden
Luna
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes that create illusions (such as Spectre, Shadow Demon, Phantom Lancer, Naga Siren, Chaos Knight, Terrorblade) or bring other units into the fight (such as Nature's Prophet, Lone Druid, Chen, Enchantress and the aforementioned 
Meepo and Arc Warden) can cause Eclipse to strike the illusions/summons unintentionally. (However, in many cases Moon Glaives can resolve this issue and eliminate them before activating Eclipse).
Mirana
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 16%)Oracle
* Heroes that can protect or dispel stunned allies such as Legion Commander, Outworld Destroyer, Shadow Demon and Oracle can reduce the effectiveness of Sacred Arrow.
Ursa
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 16%)Chaos Knight
* Ursa struggles against illusion heroes like Chaos Knight and Phantom Lancer.
Additional:
* Ursa cannot effectively fight against Phantasm's illusions with his single-target damage.
* Chaos Bolt's potentially long stun with Chaos Bolt gives Ursa little opportunity to Enrage.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Chaos Knight
* Single-target disablers will have difficulty locking down a Chaos Knight with Phantasm active: Bane, Beastmaster, Bloodseeker, Clockwerk, Doom, Shadow Shaman.
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 16%)Chaos Knight
* Single-target disablers will have difficulty locking down a Chaos Knight with Phantasm active: Bane, Beastmaster, Bloodseeker, Clockwerk, Doom, Shadow Shaman.
Chen
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 0%)Chaos Knight
* Illusion and heroes with summons are difficult to kill with Chen's single-target offensive spells: Terrorblade, Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Broodmother, Naga Siren, Lycan, 
Visage. However, Chen can convert enemy summons with Holy Persuasion, as long as they don't bunch up.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 3%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes with illusions can overwhelm Huskar, as he has no AoE abilities: Phantom Lancer, Anti-Mage, Arc Warden, Chaos Knight.
Phoenix
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)Chaos Knight
* Illusion-based heroes such as Naga Siren or Chaos Knight are vulnerable to Phoenix's DPS and attack speed slow, as their illusions, no matter how many, will be unable to deal enough damage to actually be a threat, and they will all be completely useless against the Supernova.
Oracle
* Phoenix does significant magic damage over time which can either be dispelled or negated by Fate's Edict.
* Since Phoenix sacrifices some of his health to cast abilities it makes him very vulnerable to Oracle's burst potential
Dark Seer
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes that rely on illusions will suffer against Ion Shell, which kills them very quickly: Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Naga Siren, Meepo.
* Heroes that rely on illusions typically spawn very strong illusions inside your Wall of Replica that you should use against them or their team.
Oracle
* Fortune's End can dispel 
Ion Shell, which cripples Dark Seer economy since it's his most efficient tool for farming.
* Fortune's End can dispel 
Surge, effectively slowing his movement speed making him vulnerable to ganks or skirmishes.
Additional:
* Fortune's End dispels Ion Shell and Surge, making any gank attempt on Dark Seer in the laning phase likely to succeed.
* Fate's Edict prevents all magical damage that comes from Dark Seer's abilities.
* Fortune's End dispels Ion Shell on creeps, which Dark Seer relies on to farm and zone.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 5%)Oracle
* Heroes with long disables, like Lion, Night Stalker, or Legion Commander, can prevent Oracle from using spells or items.
Chaos Knight
* Reality Rift pulls out Night Stalker while he tries to escape or chase.
* Night Stalker doesn't have a lot of ways to deal with multiple targets, which makes him vulnerable to Phantasm illusions from early to mid game, until Night Stalker buys Aghanim's Scepter.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: -0.2 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 2%)Oracle
* 
Disruption can protect Shadow Demon's allies from Fortune's End, preserving healing or buffs. It can also catch Oracle's allies, allowing 
Shadow Poison and 
Soul Catcher to be used without being dispelled.
* 
Demonic Purge prevents over-time healing during False Promise, such as Purifying Flames and 
Urn of Shadows. If he has Aghanim's Scepter, this issue can persist for longer or on multiple allies.
* It will not, however, prevent healing from instant abilities, items, or auras, making 
Mekansm a good choice against him.
Chaos Knight
* Chaos Knight, Lone Druid, Meepo and Arc Warden can be hard targets since Shadow Demon's spells are ill-suited to fight many enemies at once.
Oracle
* Heroes who can dispel will be able to remove Shadow Poison before Shadow Demon can build up a big stack, or remove Soul Catcher's debuff to instantly bring the health of affected heroes back to a considerable amount: Abaddon, Slark, Legion Commander, Oracle.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 9%)Chaos Knight
* 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.
Oracle
* 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.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 13%)Chaos Knight
* 
Maledict cannot be dispelled by Phantasm, and can be used to tag the real Chaos Knight hiding within his illusions.
* If Witch Doctor has an Aghanim's Scepter, 
Death Ward will bounce between Chaos Knight's illusions, destroying them quickly.
* However, Death Ward is easily interrupted by Chaos Bolt until Witch Doctor buys 
Glimmer Cape or Black King Bar.
Oracle
* It is especially easy for Oracle to negate the damage from Maledict, and even heal through it with Fate's Edict and Purifying Flames.
* If by some miracle an enemy is still about to die because of Maledict, he can still save him with False Promise.
Omniknight
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Chaos Knight
* Phantasms can be easily killed with Purification.
* Heavenly Grace dispels the stun from Chaos Bolt and the armor reduction from Reality Rift.
* Guardian Angel works well against Chaos Knight's overwhelming reliance on physical burst damage.
Additional:
* 
Purification heals a teammate targeted by Reality Rift and heavily damages Chaos Knight and his illusions in the process.
* 
Guardian Angel blocks all of Chaos Knight's damage for a duration.
Oracle
* Fortune's End's AoE dispel will remove Guardian Angel.
Additional:
* With Fortune's End, Oracle can dispel Guardian Angel in an area of effect.
Jakiro
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)Chaos Knight
* With his AoE damage, Jakiro can easily kill Chaos Knight's Phantasm illusions.
* Chaos Knight usually doesn't buy a Black King Bar, making him vulnerable to an Ice Path into Macropyre combination.
Additional:
* 
Ice Path and 
Macropyre punish Reality Rift with a long stun and heavy damage across all illusions.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict allowed Oracle to make allies spell immune, allowing him to save allies from Jakiro's spells.
* Fate's Edict can be cast onto Jakiro to disarm him and prevent him from pushing with his Liquid Fire.
* False Promise allows Oracle to free allies from Jakiro's Ice Path.
Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 5%)Oracle
* Because Oracle uses few, powerful instances of damage to kill enemies, 
Templar Assassin's 
Refraction and Visage's 
Gravekeeper's Cloak can absorb his burst damage.
Chaos Knight
* Multiple attackers thanks to illusions: Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Naga Siren (bonus for her 
Ensnare). Also despite the visual effects, Templar Assassin does not spill damage against illusions or buildings, so she is not a really good hero to clean up illusions.
* Heroes that can quickly deal damage to her, regardless of how weak they are, can easily break through her Refraction:
* Multiple attackers thanks to summoned units or clones: Meepo, Witch Doctor, Lycan, Enigma, Shadow Shaman
* Multiple attackers thanks to illusions: Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Naga Siren (bonus for her Ensnare). Also despite the visual effects, Templar Assassin does not spill damage against illusions or buildings, so she is not a really good hero to clean up illusions.
* Weak damage but high tick rate or persist in a long time: Slark, 
Gyrocopter, 
Queen of Pain, Shadow Shaman (
Shackles), Pugna
Pugna
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* 
Decrepify turns the target ethereal, protecting them from Chaos Knight's and his illusions' attacks.
* 
Life Drain instantly destroys illusions. It can effectively negate Phantasm when upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter.
* 
Nether Blast quickly clears out illusions and can harass Chaos Knight in lane.
Oracle
* Most of Pugna's damage is magical, which can get blocked by Fate's Edict's 100% magic resistance.
* Oracle has two abilities that apply a dispel, which can easily remove Decrepify on his ally or Oracle.
* Oracle has a very long Attack Range and a very low Base Attack Time, which enables him to take down Nether Ward swiftly from long distance.
Visage
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 1%)Oracle
* Because Oracle uses few, powerful instances of damage to kill enemies, Templar Assassin's Refraction and Visage's Gravekeeper's Cloak can absorb his burst damage.
Chaos Knight
* Heroes that can overwhelm Visage by sheer number like Chaos Knight, Meepo, Terrorblade and Phantom Lancer.
Oracle
* False Promise will not save an ally from
Culling Blade if their health is low enough.
* Fate's Edict, offensively or defensively, does little to protect Oracle's allies from the majority of Axe's damage.
Chaos Knight
* Berserker's Call and Counter Helix makes short work of Chaos Knight's
Phantasms.
Berserker's Call allows Axe to lock down Chaos Knight and his illusions.
Counter Helix combined with 
Blade Mail clears illusions out in no time.
Additional:
