Pugna
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 4%)Broodmother
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 56% 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,
Meepo,
Broodmother
Enchantress
* Enchantress is well known for taking control of various summons with her Enchant. However, Broodmother's summons are not a good target for that, because she can swarm up a bunch of her summons with Spawn Spiderlings and Enchantress has no good waveclear (Spawn Spiderlings can also kill creeps controlled with Enchant).
Additional:
* Enchantress' lack of AoE abilities allows Broodmother to swarm her with Spiderlings.
* Spawn Spiderlings can kill enchanted creeps.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes who rely on illusions can be tagged by Focus Fire: Chaos Knight,
Terrorblade.
Enchantress
* Windrun's speed allows easy pursuit or escape, while the evasion greatly reduces the threat of Enchantress' Impetus, especially when retreating.

[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 11%)Chaos Knight
* Chain Frost can eliminate Chaos Knight's Phantasm army, especially after he clumped up using

* An Aghanim's Scepter-upgraded
Sinister Gaze can hypnotize Chaos Knight and his illusions while also draining his already low mana pool.
Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: 1.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Enchantress
* The burst damage from Timbersaw's abilities is more than enough to deal with Enchantress and her creeps.
* Timbersaw doesn't rely on his physical attacks, which makes Untouchable useless against him.
* Timber Chain can close the gap between them and minimize damage from Impetus.
* Be aware, however, that Timber Chain could work against him if used to escape.
* However, Impetus can ignore Reactive Armor if Enchantress is not a primary target for Timbersaw or if he is disabled.
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.
Enchantress
* Timbersaw has a difficult time against magical and pure damage: Lina,
Leshrac,
Enchantress,
Queen of Pain
Dark Seer

Sand King
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Enchantress
* Sand King is a strong ganker, allowing him to shut down squishy heroes in the early game: Phantom Assassin,
Clinkz,
Sniper,
Enchantress,...
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.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)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 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.
Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Additional:
* Enchantress is very fragile without any form of magic resistance, allowing Lion to easily burst her down.
* Nature's Attendants is a slow heal, making it ineffective against Lion's burst.

* Since Lion's damage comes mostly from his skills, Untouchable does nothing to mitigate it.
Centaur Warrunner

Dark Seer,
Lycan,

[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 14%)Enchantress
* Vendetta breaks Untouchable and deals great damage against her.
* Enchantress' lack of mobility makes her a primary target for ganking with Vendetta.
* Spiked Carapace can reflect Impetus and stun Enchantress.
* Mana Burn can deal tremendous damage against her due to being an Intelligence hero.
Additional:
* Vendetta disables Untouchable.
* Spiked Carapace reflects the damage from Impetus.
* Enchantress is a rather squishy hero, making her fall easily to Nyx Assassin's high burst damage.
Puck
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 18%)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: 53% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight
* Abaddon could punish Chaos Knight for using Phantasm and Reality Rift combo on him with his 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.
Tidehunter
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 9%)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.

Jakiro
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 10%)Chaos Knight

* Chaos Knight usually doesn't buy a Black King Bar, making him vulnerable to an Ice Path into Macropyre combination.

Macropyre punish Reality Rift with a long stun and heavy damage across all illusions.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Enchantress

Poison Nova lowers the amount of healing received by Enchantress and her allies from Nature's Attendants.
Earthshaker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 15%)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.
Riki
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 15%)Enchantress
* Riki usually buys Diffusal Blade to initiate, which renders Enchantress' movement speed useless, and is usually followed with
Smoke Screen.
* Riki can effectively hit Enchantress by Tricks of the Trade alongside with
Diffusal Blade and
Smoke Screen's initiation. For a hero like Enchantress, 3 to 4 hits from Riki is a big deal, unless Enchantress built
Force Staff earlier.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)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 rush and drain of mana.
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 build Diffusal Blade often, it can quickly drain Chaos Knight of all his mana, leaving him unable to cast spells.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 7%)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.
Enchantress
* Any hero with a low HP pool is easy for Tinker to nuke down: Crystal Maiden,
Enchantress,
Gyrocopter,
Lion,
Riki,
Techies,
Terrorblade,
Necrophos,
Invoker.
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.
Dragon Knight
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 3%)Chaos Knight
* Dragon Blood's armor bonus greatly reduces the damage dealt by Phantasm.

* Flak Cannon destroys Chaos Knight's illusions very quickly.
Axe
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 9%)Chaos Knight

Blade Mail clears illusions out in no time.
Brewmaster
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% 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 game and can still deal a lot of damage to them late game, revealing the real Chaos Knight.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 9%)Chaos Knight
* Quill Spray quickly destroys Chaos Knight's Phantasms.

Phantom Lancer,
Meepo,
Broodmother
Enchantress
* Meepo can quickly kill Enchantress with a
Poof combo, rendering Untouchable useless.
Enchantress
* Enchantress's
Untouchable slows down Meepos attacks and
Impetus can deal heavy pure damage to a single meepo, however once Meepo has closed the gap she is an easy target for Poof.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% 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.
Medusa
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Enchantress often has a small army of neutral creeps, allowing Medusa to hit her with a later bounce of her Mystic Snake.
* Untouchable is ignored by secondary attacks from Split Shot.
Lina
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)Enchantress
* Enchantress has pitiful health, and cannot tank Lina's heavy magic damage.
* Untouchable is decently countered by Fiery Soul, exposing Enchantress' weakness to physical damage due to her low armor.
* Lina is decent at clearing creeps and can kill Enchantress' creeps quickly.
Additional:
* Enchantress has a very small health pool and cannot tank Lina's heavy magic burst.
* Untouchable is decently countered by Fiery Soul, exposing Enchantress' weakness to physical damage due to her low armor.

Kunkka
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 4%)Chaos Knight

Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 17%)Chaos Knight

Terrorblade) can't use their illusion beneficially against Sanity's Eclipse's high AoE burst damage.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% 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,
Meepo,
Broodmother
Phoenix
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (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.
Weaver
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 8%)Enchantress
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Oracle
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)Enchantress
* Heroes with little health or magic resistance are easily picked off with Oracle's magic burst, such as Skywrath Mage,
Crystal Maiden, or
Enchantress.
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% 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.
Enchantress
* Heroes like Enchantress and
Chen, or heroes that make use of
Helm of the Dominator are weak to Crystal Maiden, as Frostbite can do wonders against
Enchant,
Holy Persuasion, or dominated creeps. Careful though, as an army of carefully controlled creeps (
Enchantress and
Chen) can hold many stuns that will cancel Freezing Field.
Additional:
* Frostbite does 1000 magical damage to Enchantress's creeps and roots them for 10 seconds, which hinders her ability to gank.
Chaos Knight
* Innately fragile heroes will die almost instantly to Reality Rift while Chaos Knight has illusions active: Drow Ranger,
Bane,
Necrophos,
Crystal Maiden.
Pangolier
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)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
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Enchantress
* Heroes that can jump on her: Slark,
Queen of Pain,
Anti-Mage

Chaos Knight,
Juggernaut.

Faceless Void,
Magnus

* Phantasm dispels Open Wounds.
* Lifestealer has no way of dealing with Chaos Knight's illusions.

* Since Untouchable pierce Spell immunity, Lifestealer cannot burst her down even with
Rage ; meaning she can heal herself back to full HP.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)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.
Enchantress
* Range-reliant heroes: Sniper,
Drow Ranger
Huskar
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes with illusions can overwhelm Huskar, as he has no AoE abilities: Phantom Lancer,
Anti-Mage,
Arc Warden,
Chaos Knight.
Enchantress
* Untouchable makes it near impossible to stack Burning Spears.
* Impetus' pure damage puts an instant end to Huskar's low-health brinkmanship.

[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 16%)Chaos Knight
* Ursa struggles against illusion heroes like Chaos Knight and
Phantom Lancer.

Pudge
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 19%)Chaos Knight
* Phantasm's illusions make it difficult to land Meat Hook and
Dismember.

[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Chaos Knight
* Casting Phantasm before a fight minimizes the disruption from Global Silence.

Lone Druid
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% 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.

* Wraith King has no form of AoE to clear Chaos Knight's illusions from Phantasm.

* Untouchable greatly reduces Chemical Rage's attack speed advantage.

* Chen can use Holy Persuasion on creeps controlled by Enchant.

Chaos Knight
* Illusion and heroes with summons are difficult to kill with Chen's single-target offensive spells: Terrorblade,
Phantom Lancer,
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.
Undying
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)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.
Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 5%)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.

* Multiple attackers thanks to summoned units or clones: Meepo,
Witch Doctor,
Lycan,

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
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
Warlock
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 5%)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.
Visage
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 1%)Chaos Knight
* Heroes that can overwhelm Visage by sheer number like Chaos Knight,
Meepo,
Terrorblade and
Phantom Lancer.
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.
Slark
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 13%)Enchantress
* Heroes that can jump on her: Slark,
Queen of Pain,
Anti-Mage
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.
Viper
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 5%)Enchantress
* Heroes with break can disable Untouchable for a while: Doom and
Shadow Demon (via
Aghanim's Scepter),
Viper
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.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 8%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk,
Snapfire,
Spirit Breaker
Enchantress
* Spirit Breaker won’t do much harm because of Untouchable and Nature's Attendants. Unless Enchantress is low on HP, Spirit Breaker won’t catch her with mere spells.
Lycan
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 4%)Enchantress
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Enchantress
* He relies heavily on right clicks making Untouchable very effective against him.
* If he tries to run away Impetus will do huge amounts of damage.
Additional:
* She can Enchant one of the wolves to her side.
* Untouchable still slows Lycan's attack speed.
Luna
[wiki] rating: -0.2 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Enchantress
* Enchantress has pitiful HP so Lucent Beam and Eclipse can kill her very quickly.
* Moon Glaives allows Luna to clear Enchantress' creeps very efficiently.
Additional:
* Enchantress has pitiful HP, even more pitiful than Luna, so Lucent Beam and
Eclipse will often harass and/or kill her through her Untouchable.
* With Moon Glaives, Luna can clear Enchantress's creep wave efficiently.
Enchantress
* 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).
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).
Sven
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (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:
* Sven's shorter cast time allows him to use Storm Hammer on Chaos Knight and his illusions before he can cast Chaos Bolt.
* Warcry's armor bonus counteracts Reality Rift's slow and reduces Chaos Knight's damage output.
* Great Cleave and
God's Strength devastates Phantasm illusions.
Enchantress
* Against her Untouchable, Sven is barely able to hit Enchantress even with his Black King Bar.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 46% 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.
Enchantress
* Impetus will deal huge amounts of damage when he uses a Fire Remnant to escape.
* Flame Guard is useless against Impetus.
* Enchant dispels Flame guard.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Heroes with break can disable Untouchable for a while: Doom and
Shadow Demon (via
Aghanim's Scepter),
Viper
Chaos Knight
* Single-target disablers will have difficulty locking down a Chaos Knight with Phantasm active: Bane,
Beastmaster,
Bloodseeker,
Clockwerk,
Doom,
Shadow Shaman.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Enchantress
* Heroes with break can disable Untouchable for a while: Doom and
Shadow Demon (via
Aghanim's Scepter),
Viper
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.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Enchantress
* Enchantress has a very low health pool, allowing Zeus to burst her down quickly before she can heal off the damage.
* Zeus will not be affected by Untouchable, as he won't try to attack her with right clicks anyway.
* Zeus can stay out of her attack range while trying to kill her, especially if he has bought an Aether Lens.
* Most heroes would want to get on top of Zeus to kill him, but Enchantress does not have this option as doing so would severely limit her Impetus damage.
* The exception is the laning phase, where Enchantress can gank Zeus if she Enchants a good creep.
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.
Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Additional:
* Untouchable is useless versus constant Arcane Bolts, and it doesn't help that her strength gain is the lowest in the game.
* A jungle Enchantress can weaken lanes and make Skywrath Mage's job easier.
* The magic amplification from Ancient Seal makes her even squishier to Skywrath and his allies' magic nukes.
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.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk,
Snapfire,
Spirit Breaker
Chaos Knight
* Single-target disablers will have difficulty locking down a Chaos Knight with Phantasm active: Bane,
Beastmaster,
Bloodseeker,
Clockwerk,
Doom,
Shadow Shaman.
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% 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.
Omniknight
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% 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.
Enchantress
* Impetus is not blocked by Guardian Angel. A {U:Satyr Banisher} can also be controlled to dispel
Guardian Angel.
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)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.
Enchantress
* Impetus pure damage ignores the extra armor granted from Wukong's Command.
* Enchant can dispel Monkey King's Jingu Mastery bonuses.
* Untouchable makes it hard for Monkey King to land Jingu Mastery stacks.
* Sproink allows Enchantress to escape from Wukong's Command.
Bane
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
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.
Mirana
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 16%)Enchantress
* Mirana can instantly kill creeps with Sacred Arrow, making her decent at crippling the armies of Chen or
Enchantress.
Enchantress
* Heroes that have an escape that doesn't disjoint projectiles: Mirana,
Faceless Void,
Magnus
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 9%)Enchantress
* Battle Trance and
Fervor can help cancel out Untouchable.
Additional:
* Untouchable's attack speed slow is easily remedied by Fervor stacks and Battle Trance.
* Troll Warlord is a natural Silver Edge carrier, disabling Enchantress' Untouchable.
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.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 18%)Enchantress
* Blade Fury dispels the slow from
Enchant, spell immunity and used to burst her down during the early laning stage.
* Omnislash and
Swiftslash's physical damage burst ignore
Untouchable.
* Silver Edge is an ideal item for Juggernaut to deal with
Untouchable, making her vulnerable to melee attacks.
Additional:
* Blade Fury dispels the slow from enchant, and can burst her down during the laning stage.
* Omnislash and
Swiftslash's physical damage burst ignore untouchable.
* Silver Edge is a common item for Juggernaut for dealing with Untouchable.
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.
Arc Warden
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 5%)Enchantress
* Magnetic Field makes Impetus miss; if Enchantress decides to enter the field, she is giving up bonus damage since Impetus deals greater damage at higher distance away from targets.
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.
Razor
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 4%)Enchantress
* Static Link 's damage instants fully ignore Untouchable, combine with
Eye of the storm and high movement speed compare to Enchantress with no mobility, Razor can easily take away her squishy health pool.
Chaos Knight
* Razor has no way to deal with Chaos Knight's multiple illusions from Phantasm.
To start select enemy heroes in the field above. It's intended to be used with multiple heroes. The more enemy heroes you provide the better results you will get.
About
This website was made to help you in pick stage of online game Dota 2. It calculates rating for each possible counterpicks based on tips from web-based database made up entirely of user contributions Dota 2 wiki.
You will get the list of recommended hero counters with a list of tips written by Dota 2 wiki contributors explaining why it's good against the particular hero. In comparison to other similar websites, which show only rating based on average hero winrate from dotabuff or similar service.
How to interpret this data
Take it with a bit of grain of salt, especially if the recommendation has a low rating (<= 1), some heroes
may win a lane in an early game but would lose in late game (and vice versa). That's why sometimes
you could hero names appearing as a counter and as being countered, as on image:
You can also add your own tips, update old data and fix mistakes by editing page on Dota 2 Wiki (it works like Wikipedia - anyone can contribute, you don't even need to register) these edits will appear on this website automatically (data is updated several times per week).
Right now there is no app/overlay that will detect picks automatically (like overwolf dota plus or become the gamer), instead, you can open web version in a steam in-game browser or use mobile version on your smartphone.

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.
*
*
Enchantress
* Amazingly, Enchantress has even lower health than Pugna. Though she does pack quite a punch through
Impetus, she can't use it if she is under Decrepify.
Nature's Attendants, which will also harm her quite a bit if she's next to Nether Ward.
* Pugna's Magical DPS is way greater than the heal from
