Outworld Devourer
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 3%)Clinkz
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 9%)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.
Omniknight
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 2%)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.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 16%)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.
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 6%)Lone Druid
* 
Ghost Shroud can be use both offensively to slow Lone Druid or Defensively to prevent Lone Druid and The Spirit Bear from attacking him.
* 
Heartstopper aura burns the Spirit bear High HP over time. Additionally, it can deal decent damage to Lone Druid during his True Form.
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 18%)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.
Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)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.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Ember Spirit
* Ember Spirit does minimal damage to Huskar until the very late game.
Oracle
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 10%)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.
Phoenix
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 11%)Lone Druid
* Lone druid's bear attacks on Phoenix's 
Supernova Egg don't increase the hit count. Given that Lone Druid's main hero often doesn't have much farm, the Supernova Egg is less likely to get killed.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Lone Druid
* 
Laser blinds Lone Druid, making his attacks miss. Furthermore, a Tinker with Aghanim's Scepter is sure to blind both Lone Druid and his bear, negating his ability to root or deal physical damage.
Lich
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 14%)Lone Druid
* 
Chain Frost will bounce between Lone Druid and his bear, forcing them to separate or suffer high amounts of damage.
Additional:
* Chain Frost can deliver high amounts of damage to Lone itself and his bear if they do not separate fast from each other.
Winter Wyvern
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Lone Druid
* 
Cold Embrace can protect allies from Lone Druid and the Spirit bear, who mainly deal physical damage
* 
Winter's Curse can turn Lone Druid and the Spirit Bear against his teammates.
Death Prophet
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)Lone Druid
* Lone Druid during True Form and the Spirit bear has high HP, meaning 
Spirit Siphon can be very effective against them since they deal percentage damage
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 12%)Lone Druid
* Paralyzing Cask is likely to bounce between him and his bear every single time.
* Lone Druid's lack of mobility makes him vulnerable to Death Ward and Maledict.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 22%)Lone Druid
* 
Blur allows Phantom Assassin to escape from Lone Druid and the spirit bear. Additionally, it provides evasion which effectively reduce the damage output from the Spirit Bear and reduce the chances to root her, forcing him to invest in 
Monkey King Bar
* At late game, Phantom Assassin out carry Lone Druid.
Techies
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 6%)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.
Shadow Fiend
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 15%)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.
Brewmaster
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Lone Druid
* Brewmaster can make the Spirit Bear a much smaller threat with Cinder Brew.
* Cyclone removes the bear from a fight so that his team can easily focus on the hero.
* While most heroes would be worn down by a Spirit Bear 
Radiance in the time it takes to kill Lone Druid, Brewmaster is protected in Primal Split.
Morphling
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 12%)Lone Druid
* Morphling can ignore Spirit Bear and shorten the distance to Lone Druid with Waveform.
* Morphling can use his nukes to burst Lone Druid down, provided he is not rooted/disabled by Spirit Bear beforehand.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 14%)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.
Kunkka
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)Ember Spirit
* Using 
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.
Enchantress
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)Ember Spirit
* 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.
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 8%)Lone Druid
* Grimstroke's 
Soulbind will always reliably connect onto both of them if they are close together.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 4%)Lone Druid
* Lone Druid and The Spirit Bear cannot burst down Bristleback due to 
Bristleback
* Bristleback can easily run to Lone Druid without any hesitation, with 
Viscous Nasal Goo to reduce armor and slow the Spirit Bear or Lone Druid and 
Quill Spray can deal damage to both Lone Druid and the Spirit Bear at the same time
Beastmaster
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 3%)Ember Spirit
* Heroes who rely on high mobility are especially vulnerable to Primal Roar: 
Storm Spirit, 
Ember Spirit, 
Queen of Pain.
Treant Protector
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Lone Druid
* 
Clinkz, 
Sniper, 
Lone Druid, 
Troll Warlord, 
Legion Commander, 
Wraith King and others are some of the Heroes that bases themselves on attacks with little or no spell power, suffering in the grassy hands of Overgrowth.
Pugna
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 6%)Lone Druid
* 
Pugna: 
Decrepify prevent the Spirit bear from attacking or protect allies from it.
Riki
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Lone Druid
* 
Riki: 
Smoke Screen can prevent Lone Druid from using True Form and Savage Roar, additionally it cause the spirit bear to miss on attacks which reduce the chances of getting rooted from it, with diffusal Blade, he can keep Lone Druid or the Spirit Bear inside the Smoke.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)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.
Puck
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 5%)Ember Spirit
* Any Hero with high mobility will be neutralized by dream coil: Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, 
Lycan, 
Bloodseeker, 
Anti-Mage, 
Timbersaw
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 1%)Lone Druid
* Ensnare is good vs bear.
* In teamfights, song of the siren may be used to properly set up and coordinate an attack on Lone Druid in the backline, bursting him down, allowing to completely ignore the bear.
* Druid lack innate AoE capabilities giving him no good way of dealing with illusions.
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.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.2 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 6%)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 while Doomed to escape from Doom.
Lone Druid
* Besides Lone Druid and 
Meepo, Doom is potentially good versus every hero since Doom will render any hero helpless for a prolonged 15 seconds. This is particularly true for fragile heroes that heavily rely on mobility to stay alive.
Lone Druid
* Lone Druid is essentially two heroes. Dooming one over the other still leaves Lone Druid or his bear able to do their job during a fight. Additionally, Lone Druid is not hindered as much as other heroes by the silence and mute of Doom since the hero relies more on attacks than abilities.
Nature's Prophet
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 4%)Lone Druid
* Once caught in Bear's Entangle, Nature's Prophet cannot escape with 
Teleportation.
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.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Lone Druid
* 
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.
Ember Spirit
* Disruption is not reliable enough to catch an Ember Spirit with a backup Fire Remnant.
* Sleight of Fist will make quick work of the spawned illusions.
* Ember Spirit usually builds Eul's Scepter of Divinity to dispel Shadow Poison and 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.
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)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.
Lone Druid
* Lone Druid's early game is good against slow, squishy supports since his bear is very strong early game and an Entangling Claws proc almost always guarantees a kill: 
Ancient Apparition, 
Crystal Maiden, 
Shadow Shaman, 
Skywrath Mage etc.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 43% pickrate: 4%)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.
Alchemist
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 3%)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.
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)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.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 19%)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 Willow
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Ember Spirit

* Sleight of Fist and Fire Remnant makes it hard for Dark Willow to fully disable Ember Spirit.
Dark Seer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Ember Spirit
* Flame Guard makes Dark Seer not deal any damage with his skills to Ember Spirit.
Void Spirit
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 12%)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.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)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.
Warlock
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)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.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 10%)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.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 5%)Ember Spirit
* Fire Remnant allows Ember Spirit to escape while Ruptured.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 57% 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.
Gyrocopter
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 1%)Ember Spirit
* Heroes with high mobility will be able to avoid Gyrocopter's area attacks: Storm Spirit, 
Morphling, Ember Spirit
Lycan
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)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.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 22%)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.
Disruptor
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)Ember Spirit

* Heroes with considerable mobility can easily escape from a rolling Pangolier: Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, 
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.
Jakiro
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 11%)Ember Spirit
* Heroes with good mobility to avoid Jakiro's abilities and with good chase to punish Jakiro from pushing a tower: Bloodseeker, Ember Spirit, Juggernaut, Phantom Assassin, 
Weaver.

* Heroes who can dodge Earth Spirit's abilities: Ember Spirit, Puck, Weaver
Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Lone Druid
* Lone Druid's early game is good against slow, squishy supports since his bear is very strong early game and an Entangling Claws proc almost always guarantees a kill: Ancient Apparition, Crystal Maiden, Shadow Shaman, Skywrath Mage etc.
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Lone Druid
* Lone Druid's early game is good against slow, squishy supports since his bear is very strong early game and an Entangling Claws proc almost always guarantees a kill: Ancient Apparition, Crystal Maiden, Shadow Shaman, Skywrath Mage etc.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 19%)Ember Spirit
* Heroes with escaping and disjointing abilities can be good against Juggernaut: Riki, Queen of Pain, Puck, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, 
Slark etc.
Luna
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Lone Druid
* 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).
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 6%)Lone Druid
* Lone Druid's early game is good against slow, squishy supports since his bear is very strong early game and an Entangling Claws proc almost always guarantees a kill: Ancient Apparition, Crystal Maiden, Shadow Shaman, Skywrath Mage etc.
Razor
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 1%)Ember Spirit
* Any hero with teleport abilities (e.g. Ember Spirit, Storm Spirit) can easily break Static Link.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Lone Druid
* Timbersaw: Lone Druid will have a hard time dealing with Timbersaw due to his tankiness and high Armor from 
Reactive Armor
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.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 50% 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.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 4%)Lone Druid
* Lone Druid and his Spirit Bear lack mobility, and are easy overwhelmed after being slowed by Diffusal Blade.
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.
Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 11%)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.
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.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)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.
Lone Druid
* Silencer's disables are useless on Lone Druid since he is more reliant on physical attacks rather than spells.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 7%)Lone Druid
* 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.
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.
Lone Druid
*
Arcane Orb deals heavy damage to both Lone Druid and the Spirit Bear.
Astral Imprisonment can prevent the Spirit Bear from attacking, which is Lone Druid's main damage output.
Sanity's Eclipse deals heavy damage to Lone Druid.
*
*
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.
*
