* The root from Searing Chains prevents Void Spirit from using Dissimilate or Astral Step.

* Dragon Knight's insanely high armor and splash damage can cause Lycan to struggle taking him down.

* Heroes with burst damage of their own won't be afraid to go toe to toe with Void Spirit, like Ursa, Lifestealer, or Axe.

* Melee heroes who rely on summons, illusions or clones will trigger Counter Helix more often, thus taking more damage: Meepo, Lycan, Chaos Knight, Phantom Lancer

* Splinter Blast is very effective in dealing with Lycan's summons.
* Cold Embrace saves allies from Lycan's raw physical damage and can buy allies enough time to turn the tide of battle.

* Lycan often moves around with large amount of creeps, wolves created by Summon Wolves, neutral creep dominated by Helm of the Dominator and summons created by Necronomicon which can be easily cleared by Splinter Blast or used as a great source of damage by Winter's Curse. If you catch Lycan with creeps nearby and affected by Shapeshift using Winter's Curse on him will most certainly end up with his death.

* Bristleback allows him to stay alive against Lycan while dishing out counter attacks
* He can overpower Lycan with his Warpath instead.

* Poison Attack makes it hard for Void Spirit to lane against him.
