[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Undying

Global Silence are able to silence Undying for up to 6 seconds, preventing Undying from gaining strength and healing his ally or himself.
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.
Invoker

Anti-Mage,
Nyx Assassin
Snapfire
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Omniknight

Tombstone,
Gyrocopter's
Homing Missile, and
Zeus's
Nimbus.
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 18%)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.

* Chemical Rage will take down Tombstone in no time.

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.

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.

[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)Omniknight

Soul Rip.

Dragon Knight,
Lycan,
Ursa,
Troll Warlord
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Undying
* Necrophos is a dangerous opponent to go against with. Regardless of how many strength Undying has gained from Decay, Necrophos can finish off Undying with Reaper's Scythe once Undying's HP falls below a certain threshold.
* Heartstopper Aura will do more damage to Undying if he gained strength from Decay, as it does damage based on a hero's maximum health.
Omniknight
* Heroes who possess abilities that can save targets from being killed by Reaper's Scythe: Abaddon,
Bane,
Outworld Destroyer,
Shadow Demon,
Omniknight, etc.
Spectre
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 7%)Undying
* Spectre must chase for kills and relies on movement speed for mobility in fights, and has no way to counter the Tombstone zombies.
* The potency of Soul Rip can be increased from nearby illusions from Haunt.
* Decay will shut down Spectre during the laning phase by effectively cutting down her initial health pool.
Additional:
* Spectre must chase for kills and relies on movement speed for mobility in fights, and has no way to counter the Tombstone zombies.
* The potency of Soul Rip can be increased from nearby illusions, so Undying can use Haunt against Spectre.
* Early game Decay will make Spectre easy to shut down in lane.
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.
Axe
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)Undying
* Decay's stacking strength reduction makes Axe much less dominant in lane.
* Tombstone's zombies take no damage from Counter Helix, and will continuously put Axe's
Blink Dagger on cooldown until dealt with.
Omniknight
* Omniknight's healing prevents allies from dropping low enough for Culling Blade. However, it can still go through all his buffs.
* Axe also enjoys getting close to allied heroes in order to damage them with his Counter Helix, which can easily be punished by Purification.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 8%)Undying
* Due to Spirit Breaker's low attack speed, Tombstone is problematic for Spirit Breaker.
* The zombies summoned from Tombstone apply a stacking movement speed slow, which can significantly reduce Greater Bash's damage.
* Soul Rip and
Decay allows Undying and his allies to survive from incoming ganks of Spirit Breaker.
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.
* Heavenly Grace can be used to counter Charge of Darkness by minimizing the damage and lowering the stun duration with status resistance.
* Spirit Breaker's Greater Bash from all sources (Charge of Darkness or normal attacks) deals lesser damage if he is within the radius of Degen Aura.
* Due to this, Spirit Breaker's damage will always be lower when targeting Omniknight.
Winter Wyvern
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 5%)Undying
* Winter Wyvern cannot handle the Zombies created by Undying's Tombstone very well. In most situations, Zombies will have more movement speed than her.
* Undying can gain one or two easy Decay stacks on an ally in Cold Embrace. The ally will still take the damage as well.
Additional:
* Winter Wyvern cannot handle the Zombies created by Tombstone very well. In most situations, Zombies will have more movement speed than her.

* Purification and
Heavenly Grace are very useful against Arctic Burn and Splinter Blast as well.
Ogre Magi
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 17%)Omniknight
* Heavenly Grace reduces Fireblast stun time and dispels Ignite.
* Purification can heal damaged hero if needed.
Undying
* Undying saps strength from heroes with Decay, and Ogre Magi's high strength gain will allow Undying to steal more and more strength, becoming stronger with each use.
* Due to the Strength steal from Decay, Undying is normally very tanky, and has high health, making it harder for Ogre Magi to kill him.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 12%)Undying
* Generally, any fragile heroes will have a hard time dealing with Undying's tankiness, and even more so if Decay is used on them. Some examples are Crystal Maiden and
Witch Doctor.
Omniknight
* Guardian Angel protects allies from Death Ward's physical damage.
* Purification and
Heavenly Grace will most likely save teammates from dying to Maledict.
Mars
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 16%)Omniknight
* Heroes that can save their allies can be a big problem for Mars: Dazzle,
Omniknight.
Undying
* Decay,
Soul Rip and
Flesh Golem all deal magical damage which ignores Bulwark.
* Decay reduces Mars' natural strength and therefore his health pool, which is what he relies on to trade effectively in lane.
Sven
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 42% pickrate: 2%)Omniknight
* Although Sven relies often on physical damage, a Aghanim's Shard-upgraded
Storm Hammer can dispel Guardian Angel with its wide radius.
Undying
* Undying can use Decay not only to reduce Sven's maximum health, but also to reduce the damage he can deal with his ultimate.
* Zombies spawned by Tombstone together with Flesh Golem slow Sven down significantly. Landing Sven's powerful but somewhat slow right-click on Tombstone would be a waste.
Omniknight
* Purification can heal allies while dealing pure damage to Sven.
* Heavenly Grace can remove Storm Hammer's debuff immediately or make it a very mediocre stun.
* Guardian Angel negate's Sven's massive damage during God's Strength.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 7%)Undying
* Undying's Decay is a dangerous ability against Bristleback, as it makes him more vulnerable and reduces his tankiness.
* Undying's Tombstone together with Flesh Golem can slow Bristleback down significantly.
Kunkka
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 4%)Omniknight
* Guardian Angel makes allies immune to all physical damage, effectively causing Tidebringer to do no damage.

Nature's Prophet
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 4%)Undying
* Undying's Tombstone will cheerfully chew through treants, incidentally netting you some extra income during fights.
* The above interaction tends to ensure that skirmishes are heavily populated with units, thereby buffing Soul Rip
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.
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Omniknight
* Heavenly Grace dispels the stun from Ink Swell, and greatly reduces Soulbind's duration.
* Purification can turn the tables on enemies trying to get close to stun with Ink Swell.
Slark
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 12%)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.
Centaur Warrunner
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Undying
* Decay can be good against Centaur Warrunner, as reducing the health of Centaur can make Double Edge risky.

Legion Commander
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 13%)Omniknight
* Both Guardian Angel and Purification are perfect counters against Duel.

Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% 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.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 2%)Omniknight
* Guardian Angel's near invulnerability denies Bloodseeker the bonuses from Thirst, preventing him from gaining the upper hand in teamfights.

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.

* Guardian Angel does not offer protection from
Eclipse, though it will negate damage from
Moon Glaives.

* Luna has
Moon Glaives and
Lunar Blessing to help her destroy Tombstone, and this becomes more effective if Luna is equipped with
Manta Style.
Eclipse will strike only Undying.
* Defending with Zombies from Tombstone against Luna is not a good idea because
