Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 17%)Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 2%)Lone Druid
* Unless Lone Druid purchases a Black King Bar for his Spirit Bear, Ensnare will easily kite the Bear.
* Song of the Siren allows Naga Siren and her team to completely bypass the Spirit Bear and hunt for the Druid himself when starting a fight.
* Lone Druid's lack of innate AoE capabilities mean that Naga Siren's illusions have no problem against him.
Omniknight
* Song of the Siren can be used to time out Guardian Angel, giving Naga Siren's team an easy opportunity to counter-initiate.
Additional:
* Song of the Siren will waste Guardian Angel.
* Ensnare fully works on Heavenly Graced targets. However, Ensnare is dispellable with any dispel, and so can be dispelled by Heavenly Grace.
* As an agility hero that relies on illusions, Naga Siren is one of the most natural Diffusal Blade carriers, the bane of every hero with a small mana pool.
Brewmaster
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 1%)Omniknight
* Dispel Magic from {U:Storm} instantly removes Guardian Angel from Omniknight's allies in its radius of effect.
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.
Lich
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 11%)Omniknight
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich,
Ancient Apparition,
Jakiro,

Enigma
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 7%)Omniknight
* Heroes under Guardian Angel can be still damaged from the pure damage of Black Hole and Midnight Pulse.

Underlord
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 8%)Lone Druid
* Firestorm's percentage damage can quickly demolish the Spirit Bear's high HP
* Pit of Malice will allow allies to easily kite Lone Druid due to his low mobility
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Omniknight
* Jingu Mastery will still add stacks even through Guardian Angel.
* Monkey King can join a fight whenever he chooses to, meaning he can simply go directly onto Omniknight.

* Heavenly Grace is useless against Monkey King's ultimate and Jingu Mastery bonuses.
Phoenix
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)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.
Oracle
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)Omniknight
* Fortune's End's AoE dispel will remove Guardian Angel.

Invoker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 16%)Omniknight
* Tornado dispels Guardian Angel from multiple targets.
* Guardian Angel is generally useless against Invoker as he primarily relies on magical damage.

Rubick
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 17%)Omniknight

Additional:
* All Omniknight's abilities are perfect to steal:
* Purification can heal allies as well as damage enemies under the right circumstances. It is extremely useful since Rubick has no heal of his own.

Guardian Angel, useless.
Enchantress
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 42% pickrate: 1%)Omniknight

Moon Glaives.

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).
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 15%)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

Omniknight
* Heroes who rely strongly on melee physical damage will fare badly against Omniknight's Guardian Angel: Sven,
Phantom Assassin,
Juggernaut,

Ursa,
Troll Warlord
Additional:

* Guardian Angel renders Phantom Assassin useless, as she depends entirely on physical attacks.
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 17%)Omniknight
* Omniknight can dispel Hex or Shackles with
Heavenly Grace. He can also heal teammates which you disabled. The same goes to

* Once caught in Bear's Entangle, Nature's Prophet cannot escape with Teleportation.
Spectre
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 3%)Omniknight
* Global Guardian Angel will protect his allies from Spectre's Haunt, both when they are alone and in teamfights.
* Purification is a major problem for melee enemies, Spectre included, since they must be next to an enemy in order to attack. The AoE damage also allows Spectre to be singled out from her illusions.
* Degen Aura will prevent Spectre from chasing Omniknight, further exacerbated by her terrible mobility outside Haunt.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 9%)Omniknight
* 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.
Legion Commander
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 12%)Omniknight
* Both Guardian Angel and Purification are perfect counters against Duel.
Additional:

Aghanim's Scepter.

Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 5%)Omniknight
* In team fights, Guardian Angel renders Drow Ranger's physical damage useless.
Slark
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 13%)Omniknight
* Slark's dependence on Pounce and close range makes him very easy to hit with Purification.
* Slark's damage, even with a high count of Essence Shift, is easily negated by Omniknight's heals and Guardian Angel.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 6%)Omniknight
* Being mostly a physical damage dealer, Sniper's effectiveness is greatly reduced by Omniknight's Guardian Angel.
* Omniknight's Degen Aura allows him to slow sniper and catch him. Sniper has to then use some escape item.

[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 8%)Omniknight
* In the early game, Omniknight can look like an easy target for Spirit Breaker, but with Purification and
Degen Aura, what could be an opportunity could quickly turn into disaster.

* Due to this, Spirit Breaker's damage will always be lower when targeting Omniknight.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Omniknight
* Purification does great damage to Clockwerk when fighting an enemy inside Power Cogs.
* For the same reasons, Omniknight also makes a powerful ally for Clockwerk when the situation is reversed.

Juggernaut,
Dragon Knight,
Lycan,
Ursa,
Troll Warlord
Additional:
* Guardian Angel completely negates all of Lycan's damage since Lycan mainly deals physical damage.

Ancient Apparition,

Disruptor
Omniknight
* Purification allows Omniknight to keep a hero trapped in the Static Storm alive.

Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 2%)Lone Druid

Omniknight
* Doom turns Omniknight into a walking creep, or completely takes out his buffed cores, also removing Guardian Angel in the process.
* Doom has access to Satyr Banisher's Purge, which allows him to remove Guardian Angel.

* Casting Doom on Omniknight will prevent him from healing allies with Purification, or casting buffs like
Heavenly Grace and
Guardian Angel.
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.

* Heroes with the ability to heal allies, or those with good defensive abilities: (Chen,
Dazzle,
Io,

Silencer
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 6%)Omniknight
* Global Silence takes Omniknight out of the fight completely.
* Glaives of Wisdom are a great harass vs Omniknight during the laning stages of the game, since it doesn't aggro creeps & ignores his high base armor. It deals pure damage, which means it can also go through Guardian Angel.
* Silencer's intelligence steal can also cause Omniknight to falter in the early phases as it reduces his ability to use his spells.
Lone Druid
* Silencer's disables are useless on Lone Druid since he is more reliant on physical attacks rather than spells.
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 12%)Lone Druid
* Grimstroke's Soulbind will always reliably connect onto both of them if they are close together.

Heavenly Grace are very useful against Arctic Burn and Splinter Blast as well.
Death Prophet

Omniknight
* Exorcism's damage is blocked by Guardian Angel.
Additional:
* Degen Aura reduces Death Prophet's movement speed, keeping her in range.
* Guardian Angel nullifies the physical damage from Exorcism.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Lone Druid
* Reality Rift lets Chaos Knight bypass the Spirit Bear and jump onto Lone Druid.

* 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.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 10%)Omniknight
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich,
Ancient Apparition,

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.
