Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 11%)Pugna
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Outworld Destroyer
* For the better part of the game, he will take more damage from your ward than he deals to you with Arcane Orb.
* It will take a huge difference in farm or itemization between you for him to deal any damage to you with Sanity's Eclipse, provided he doesn't die first from casting it next to your ward.
* Decrepify allows Pugna to be immune to the attacks from
Arcane Orb.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Elder Titan
* Battery Assault's continuous mini-stun makes it hard for Elder Titan to cast his spells due to his poor cast animation.
* Elder Titan's channelling with Echo Stomp makes a good setup for Hookshot if timed correctly.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Outworld Destroyer
* Silencer's intelligence steal will heavily reduce Outworld Destroyer's damage output, if Outworld Destroyer dies a lot near/to Silencer.
* Global Silence and Last Words will render Outworld Destroyer helpless unless he has dispelling item/ally.
Additional:
* Silencer's Intelligence Steal will heavily reduce Outworld Devourer's damage output, particularly from Sanity's Eclipse.
* Last Word and
Global Silence will take Outworld Devourer out of the fight unless he has built Black King Bar.
Lich
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 12%)Elder Titan
* Frost Shield helps offset the armor reduction from Natural Order.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 15%)Elder Titan
* With a lot of disables with good range, he might cancel your Echo Stomp.
* Mana Drain can be used to drain Elder Titan's already low mana pool.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Outworld Destroyer
* As Outworld Devourer has short cast ranges, a short attack range, and no gap-closing abilities, Sniper can kite and harass Outworld Devourer in lane with his long range and zone him out in fights. The continuous area damage from Shrapnel also prevents Astral-Blink escapes.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 17%)Outworld Destroyer
* Rubick can use Spell Steal to steal Astral Imprisonment, and if Rubick gets
Aghanim's Scepter he gets 2 charges of it. This can overpower Outworld Devourer in team fights.
* Rubick can also steal Sanity's Eclipse against Outworld Devourer's teammates.
Enchantress
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 2%)Elder Titan
* Untouchable makes her heavily reduce Elder Titan's physical damage output on her without Spell Immunity.
* Enchant can purge
Astral Spirit's buff without Spell immunity.
* Nature's Attendants can protect her if she survives the full combo and manages to juke around.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 3%)Outworld Destroyer
* Any heroes with silences can negate the majority of Outworld Devourer's damage output: Death Prophet,
Night Stalker,
Drow Ranger,
Doom .
Elder Titan
* Infernal Blade deals scaling damage and is useful against high HP targets such as Elder Titan.
* Doom has very low base armor and naturally high HP, so he isn't significantly affected by Natural Order.
Outworld Destroyer
* Any heroes with low mana pools will die quickly or even instantly to Sanity's Eclipse: Doom,
Phantom Assassin,
Troll Warlord.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 5%)Outworld Destroyer
* Any heroes with silences can negate the majority of Outworld Devourer's damage output: Death Prophet,
Night Stalker,
Drow Ranger,
Doom .
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 20%)Elder Titan
* Blade Fury makes Juggernaut immune to Elder Titan's stun, so there is a high chance he wont get caught in your ultimate although Earth Splitter pierces spell immunity.
Outworld Destroyer
* Heroes with built-in spell immunity can become immune to all of Outworld Devourer's spells: Lifestealer's
Rage and
Juggernaut's
Blade Fury.
Outworld Destroyer
* Astral Imprisonment allows Outworld Destroyer to save himself or his teamates during Omnislash.
* Juggernaut's low mana from his low intelligence gain means that he'll take a lot of damage from Sanity's Eclipse.
Warlock
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 5%)Elder Titan
* While heroes with strong mobility able to get close/flee or long range disables do well against him, heroes with no escaping abilities/lacking long disables will perish against Warlock. Once the {U:Warlock Golem} lands with its stun, its hardly possible to escape when he casts Upheaval. Just watch your pet burn the enemies as they try running away or blow their strongest abilities to stop your {U:Warlock Golem}. Notable examples:
Huskar,
Drow Ranger,
Lion,
Elder Titan, etc.
Void Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Outworld Destroyer
* Heroes who take a long time to become strong are in for a rough mid game, such as Outworld Destroyer,
Magnus,
Medusa, and
Anti-Mage.
Death Prophet
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Outworld Destroyer
* Any heroes with silences can negate the majority of Outworld Devourer's damage output: Death Prophet,
Night Stalker,
Drow Ranger,
Doom .
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 8%)Outworld Destroyer
* Any heroes with silences can negate the majority of Outworld Devourer's damage output: Death Prophet,
Night Stalker,
Drow Ranger,
Doom .
Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Outworld Destroyer
* Heroes with powerful nuke can waste their precious abilites on her Refraction during a ganking attempt or chaos combat: Lich,
Lina,
Sniper,
Outworld Destroyer
Zeus
Additional:
* Refraction blocks most of the damage dealt with Arcane Orb and Sanity's Eclipse if used correctly, and is difficult for Outworld Devourer to deal with.
* If Astral Imprisonment is on cooldown, then an Outworld Devourer slowed by Psionic Trap is an easy kill for Templar Assassin, especially during the laning stage.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Outworld Destroyer
* Tinker's
Laser is useful against Outworld Devourer, as the blind prevents him from landing Arcane Orbs.
Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 5%)Outworld Destroyer
* Heroes with built-in spell immunity can become immune to all of Outworld Devourer's spells: Lifestealer's
Rage and
Juggernaut's
Blade Fury.
Sven
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 42% pickrate: 2%)Elder Titan
* Storm Hammer interrupts Echo Stomp.
Outworld Destroyer
* Tanky melee heroes that can easily be kited, which allows Outworld Devourer to deal heavy damage with Arcane Orb from a distance: Sven,
Underlord,
Bristleback.
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 6%)Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb deals pure damage against the real Terrorblade, bypassing his high base armor.
* Arcane Orb and
Sanity's Eclipse will make very short work of Terrorblade and his illusions.
Elder Titan
* Terrorblade has a high base armor, and relies on many ultimate orb-based items (Manta Style and
Eye of Skadi). Natural Order affects armor gained from agility, essentially reducing armor to zero if all armor is gained from agility. That effect combined with Terrorblade's low health can make a Elder Titan with an early value point in Natural Order a dangerous foe.
* Terrorblade's illusions are often grouped up in teamfight, making them more vulnerable to Echo Stomp.
Additional:
* Echo Stomp and
Astral Spirit allow the enemy team to coordinate a kill on Terrorblade before he can Sunder.
* Natural Order cripples Terrorblade's armor that he crucially needs to survive due to his low strength gain.
Morphling
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 12%)Elder Titan
* Most of Morphling's armor comes from his high agility and it is reduced by Natural Order.
* However, the aura has only 350 range and Elder Titan can be bursted down by Morphling's nuke combo if he isn't careful.
Additional:
* Morphling's high armor is primarily from Morphing agility, which is reduced by Natural Order therefore making the hero very vulnerable when it has morphed a lot into agility.
* Morphling usually will Morph into high agility and low strength. This can be taken advantage of with a good stun or silence or by bursting him down before he has the time to Morph back to strength.
* Morphling is very vulnerable to Blade Mail under Natural Order and can easily burst himself down with his own auto-attacks or his magical damage combo.
Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb deals pure damage, effectively bypassing Morphling's high armor from Attribute Shift (Agility Gain).
* Sanity's Eclipse is more effective against a low health and mana pool Morphling, enabling Outworld Destroyer to burst Morphling down before he can shift to Strength.
Additional:
* Arcane Orb deals high damage regardless of Morphling's high armor from Attribute Shift (Agility Gain).
* Because of Morphling's very low intelligence gain and base intelligence, Sanity's Eclipse will almost always be effective against Morphling.
Slark
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 12%)Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb deals pure damage, which ignores armor granted from permanent agility stacks.
* Astral Imprisonment can disrupt any Pounce attempt by banishing the leashed ally.
* Slark's low intelligence and therefore mana pool makes him more susceptible to Sanity's Eclipse.
Elder Titan
* Natural Order aura prevents Slark from gaining armor from the agility stolen with Essence Shift.
* Echo Stomp and Earth Splitter can hit Slark through his Shadow Dance ultimate.
* Slark's stats gain is relatively low compared to most agility carries making him quite squishy without his agility-based armor.
Dragon Knight
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb's constant pure damage output is devastating to Dragon Knight.
* Dragon Knight's relatively low mana pool leads to heavy damage from Sanity's Eclipse, which also bypasses his armor.
Elder Titan
* Elder Titan's
Natural Order completely nullifies Dragon Knight's high armor.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 7%)Outworld Destroyer
* Sanity's Eclipse only triggers Bristleback's passive once, and deals high damage against Bristleback's low intelligence.
Kunkka
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 4%)Outworld Destroyer
* Astral Imprisonment can allow Outworld Destroyer to save himself or allies from Kunkka's full kit.
* Sanity's Eclipse deal a large amount of damage, as Kunkka's mana pool is much smaller than Outworld Destroyer's considering Kunkka is playing physical type.
* Arcane Orb deals pure damage, shredding through Kunkka and his team even with Ghostship's buff.
Nature's Prophet
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 4%)Elder Titan
* Astral Spirit can give Elder Titan a lot of damage and movement speed if Nature's Prophet stands close to his treants.
* Not only Echo Stomp can also prevent Nature's Prophet to escape Teleportation, but also, Elder Titan can also use
Astral Spirit to bypass Sprout and use its own
Echo Stomp.
* Aghanim's Scepter upgraded
Earth Splitter can clear Nature's Prophet's treants and disarm him simultaneously, which can shutdown his pushing.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 9%)Outworld Destroyer
* 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.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 22%)Elder Titan
* Heroes who build a Black King Bar (or having any sources of spell immunity) to channel abilities/items are still interrupted by Dismember: Enigma,
Juggernaut,
Pugna,
Elder Titan.
Elder Titan
* Slow heroes that have a hard time escaping the Echo Stomp radius: Crystal Maiden,
Pudge,
Techies.
Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb and
Sanity's Eclipse quickly drains Pudge's limited mana pool, making him unable to use Meat Hook or Dismember and also bypasses Flesh Heap.
* Outworld Destroyer can save allies or himself caught by Dismember or Meat Hook with Astral Imprisonment.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Elder Titan
* Meepo lacks the disengages to escape a well-timed Echo Stomp, in particular if Elder Titan is his current target.
* Clones are counted as heroes, increasing massively the power of Astral Spirit's buffs, including Aghanim's Scepter's spell immunity buff.
* Meepo relies heavily on high agility and his mediocre strength gain makes him a very prized target for Natural Order.
* Meepo and his clones like to group up to hunt and kill in teamfights or ganks and can be easily disabled together with Echo Stomp.
Additional:
* Echo Stomp can completely disable multiple Meepos for 5 seconds.
* Astral Spirit will affect Meepo clones, as they don’t count as illusions. Elder Titan can receive a massive amount of damage, armor and movement speed from each Meepo.
* With Natural Order, Elder Titan’s mere existence causes Meepo to be disadvantaged, due to the aura that completely negates his base armor and magic resistance. Combining
Astral Spirit with Natural Order allows Elder Titan to easily kill any Meepo within a second, depending on how much damage he gains from Astral Spirit.
* Earth Splitter deals over 30%/40%/50% of each Meepo’s max hp, and is even stronger if the Meepos are near Elder Titan due to Natural Order.
Viper
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Elder Titan
* Viper is an agility hero, and his item build mostly includes agility items, so Natural Order can be devastating, removing all armor and greatly decreasing the effectiveness of Corrosive Skin, weakening Viper's magic resistance. Additionally, Echo Stomp and Earth Splitter deal both magical and physical damage, and can help bringing Viper down fast.
* Aghanim's Scepter may be necessary to take Viper down due to
Nethertoxin's break.
Mars
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 16%)Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb's pure damage ignores Mars' Bulwark.
* Astral Imprisonment can be used to stop Mars from being disruptive or save allies from his abilities.
* Sanity's Eclipse deals high damage to Mars, due to his low intelligence.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 7%)Elder Titan
* Phantom Lancer's lack of disables makes it hard for him to stop Echo Stomp's channelling.
* However, due to the long cast time of his abilities, a good Phantom Lancer can use Manta Style and/or
Doppelganger to dodge the abilities.
* Phantom Lancer's high agility and relatively low strength make him very vulnerable to Natural Order.
* Additionally, Echo Stomp and Earth Splitter can clear his wave of illusions.
* Should Phantom Lancer tries to increase his health by investing for Heart of Tarrasque, Earth Splitter does more damage to him and his illusions.
Dazzle
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Outworld Destroyer
* Astral Imprisonment is a versatile nuisance:
* If it is cast on a low-enough-health unit at least 1 second into Shallow Grave's duration, the Shallow Grave will end during the imprisonment, and the target will take lethal damage when released.
* It can be used remove Dazzle from the fight at a time he could have saved someone.
* It lets himself or an ally dodge all of Poison Touch's effects, for long enough to recover their Blink Dagger.
Axe
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)Outworld Destroyer
* Outworld Destroyer's pure and magical damage is particularly effective against Axe.
* Astral Imprisonment is an excellent way to defend against an initiating Axe.
* Sanity's Eclipse deals high damage to Axe due to his low mana pool.
Additional:
* Berserker's Call bonus armor doesn't block Arcane Orb's pure damage.
* Astral Imprisonment can be used to prevent an ally or Outworld Devourer himself from an Axe initiation.
* Axe's low mana means he's susceptible to a powerful Sanity's Eclipse.
Omniknight
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb's pure damage penetrates Guardian Angel's defense.
* Outworld Destroyer's intelligence steal is also devastating to Omniknight's already low mana pool.
Chen
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 1%)Elder Titan
* Elder Titan's Astral Spirit ability gives him bonus damage for each converted creep it passes through.
* Echo Stomp and
Earth Splitter will often kill him or any of his allies quickly before he has time to use Hand of God.
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)Outworld Destroyer
* Outworld Destroyer's pure damage from Arcane Orb is very effective at killing Troll Warlord quickly.
* Astral Imprisonment removes Troll Warlord from a fight for four seconds, minimizing his contribution to a teamfight, and potentially wasting over half of Battle Trance's duration.
* Troll Warlord gains a measly 1 intelligence point per level, meaning Sanity's Eclipse is especially effective, often instantly killing him.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb deals constant pure damage, which bypasses Timbersaw's Reactive Armor.
* Sanity's Eclipse can hit targets inside
Astral Imprisonment, which helps Outworld Destroyer finish off Timbersaw before he escapes with Timber Chain. It can also drain his mana, limiting his ability to escape should he survive.
Additional:
* Arcane Orb's pure damage ignores Timbersaw's Reactive Armor.
* Astral Imprisonment, if timed correctly, can interrupt Timber Chain, preventing him from escaping.
Pangolier
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Outworld Destroyer
* Astral Imprisonment protects an ally for much of Rolling Thunder's duration, especially at the lower levels. As Rolling Thunder has a considerable cast animation, an Outworld Destroyer with
Blink Dagger can initiate on him and destroy his timing.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 2%)Outworld Destroyer
* Sanity's Eclipse will likely instantly kill all illusions.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 8%)Outworld Destroyer
* Astral Imprisonment can be used to protect allies by imprisoning either them or Spirit Breaker.
* Arcane Orb will heavily drain Spirit Breaker's intelligence, rendering him almost useless and unable to cast spells. Spirit Breaker's low intelligence also means
Sanity's Eclipse will deal a lot of damage to him.
Winter Wyvern
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 5%)Outworld Destroyer
* Outworld Devourer's pure damage from Arcane Orb can go through Cold Embrace.
* Outworld Devourer can negate the healing from Cold Embrace using Astral Imprisonment, and steal mana while doing so.
* Outworld Devourer's damage during Winter's Curse is reduced due to Arcane Orb being unable to target allies.
Additional:
* Winter Wyvern must never put her allies in Cold Embrace against Outworld Destroyer as Arcane Orb will continue to steal Intelligence and deal damage to the defenseless hero.
* Arcane Orb does not hit his allies when he is taunted by Winter's Curse, making it weak against allies, but strong versus enemies.
* Astral Imprisonment can protect a target inflicted with Winter's Curse.
Lone Druid
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 1%)Outworld Destroyer
* 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.
Abaddon
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 3%)Outworld Destroyer
* Astral Imprisonment wastes Borrowed Time's duration.
* Outworld Destroyer's Sanity's Eclipse can kill Abaddon before Borrowed Time triggers.
Razor
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 2%)Outworld Destroyer
* Outworld Destroyer doesn't care if Razor steals his damage because he does most of his damage through Arcane Orb.
* Astral Imprisonment can prevent Razor from using the stolen damage from Static Link or chasing with Eye of the Storm.
* Sanity's Eclipse will do a ton of damage to Razor due to his low mana pool.
Wraith King
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 21%)Outworld Destroyer
* Sanity's Eclipse does massive damage to Wraith King who naturally has a low mana pool and typically doesn't build items to increase it.
* Wraithfire Blast's slow projectile speed makes it easy to avoid using Astral Imprisonment.
Underlord
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 8%)Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb 's pure damage can do great damage to Underlord.
* Sanity's Eclipse can tear down Underlord's health by a large amount, since his mana pool is very low compare to OD's high mana pool.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 2%)Elder Titan
* Echo Stomp can impede Broodmother's ability to push towers due to its low cooldown and long sleep duration.
* Astral Spirit can provide Elder Titan large amounts of damage, armor, and movement speed from her spiderlings.
* Natural Order negates Broodmother and her spiderling's base armor and magic resistance, increasing most damage dealt to them.
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 8%)Outworld Destroyer
* Any hero that can nullify effects of Chronosphere: (Omniknight,
Keeper of the Light with

Tusk,
Phoenix with
Aghanim's Scepter etc).
Additional:
* Outworld Devourer can save an ally hero caught by Duel with Astral Imprisonment, and he can inflict heavy damage on Legion Commander with Arcane Orb to aid his ally. However, if he gets caught, he is unlikely to survive the duel, due to his lack of durability.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)Outworld Destroyer
* Heroes with pure damage can kill Huskar when he inevitably gets low on health: Outworld Destroyer,
Silencer.
Additional:
* Outworld Devourer can dodge Life Break with Astral Imprisonment, leaving him unharmed while Huskar loses HP.
* Sanity's Eclipse can deal massive damage to Huskar before he builds up his Berserker's Blood stacks due to Huskar's low mana pool.

* Ursa struggles against heroes with strong (and especially undispellable) disables (Disruptor,
Puck,
Shadow Demon,
Outworld Destroyer and etc).
Oracle
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)Elder Titan
* Elder Titan's
Echo Stomp can turn into a 5 second stun on an ally under the effect of False Promise, as it delays all damage and makes it impossible to break the damage threshold of Echo Stomp.
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 13%)Elder Titan
* In general, heroes with AoE or long range disables (such as Faceless Void with
Chronosphere,
Pudge with
Meat Hook and
Elder Titan with
Echo Stomp) hinder Crystal Maiden, preventing her from using Freezing Field to help her team in a fight.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Outworld Destroyer
* Illusion based heroes (like Chaos Knight and
Terrorblade) can't use their illusion beneficially against Sanity's Eclipse's high AoE burst damage.

[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 18%)Outworld Destroyer
* Any heroes with high intelligence, such as Invoker and
Pugna.
Outworld Destroyer
* Astral Imprisonment allows Outworld Destroyer to save himself or ally from Invoker's combo, or remove Invoker from a fight temporarily.
* Arcane Orb's pure damage will deal a lot of damage against Invoker's mediocre strength gain.
* EMP is useless against Outworld Destroyer by activating Equilibrium.
* However, be aware that Sanity's Eclipse will most likely not deal any damage at all, due to Invoker's high intelligence gain compared to Outworld Destroyer's.
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 14%)Elder Titan
* Echo Stomp and
Earth Splitter's long cast times give Anti-Mage plenty of time to Blink away.
Outworld Destroyer
* Arcane Orb's pure damage goes through Counterspell, and deals splash damage to illusions spawned from
Manta Style.
* Sanity's Eclipse hits Anti-Mage while he is disabled with
Astral Imprisonment, and forces him to take heavy damage due to his low intelligence.
* Equilibrium keeps Outworld Destroyer at high mana, thus greatly reducing the damage from Mana Void.
Additional:
* Counterspell doesn't work versus Arcane Orb because it does pure damage.
* Anti-Mage cannot burn all of Outworld Devourer's mana without disables due to Essence Flux.
* Anti-Mage's Manta Style illusions are quickly destroyed by Arcane Orb.
* However, if the enemy has multiple means of removing mana, Mana Void becomes a threat to Outworld Devourer, Anti-Mage has better mobility than Outworld Devourer with
Blink, and
Counterspell blocks a large portion of the damage from Sanity's Eclipse.
Earthshaker
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)Elder Titan
* All of his spells can stun Elder Titan and interrupt Echo Stomp's channeling thanks to Aftershock.
* Fissure is particularly good for that purpose thanks to its long range.
* Elder Titan relies heavily on his spells and a chain-stun combo will usually be followed by certain death.
Outworld Destroyer
* Outworld Destroyer's pure and magical damage is particularly effective against Earthshaker.
* Astral Imprisonment catches Earthshaker while he blinks in, preventing him from executing his combo.
* Earthshaker has mana troubles, and Outworld Destroyer's abilities can press this by stealing intelligence comes from Arcane Orb, therefore depleting his mana pool and mana regeneration.
* Sanity's Eclipse deals high damage to Earthshaker, due to his low intelligence and mana pool.
Brewmaster
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)Elder Titan
* {U:Earth} has passive Spell Immunity, allowing him to walk into the Echo Stomp radius to stun Elder Titan with his
Hurl Boulder.
* {U:Storm}'s Cyclone can cancel the channeling of Echo Stomp and take Elder Titan out of the fight for {show:A|Storm|Cyclone|value2} seconds.
Outworld Destroyer
* Outworld Destroyer's pure damage will mop up Primal Split's units very quickly.
Bane
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 5%)Outworld Destroyer

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.

Outworld Destroyer
* Outworld Destroyer's high intelligence gain and fragility makes him an easy target for a massive Mana Burn, as well as killing him outwards with Nyx Assassin's high burst damage.
Astral Imprisonment can be easily exploited by Nyx Assassin with his abilities. As long as Astral Imprisonment was not cast on Nyx Assassin, it will make an opportunity for an easy stun, either by Spiked Carapace (if Outworld Destroyer hid his allies or your allies) or Impale (if he hid himself). If Astral Imprisonment was cast on Nyx Assassin, using Spiked Carapace while banished will proc the stun after the disable, since Spike Carapace has a 0 second cast time and Astral Imprisonment deals damage right after the disable ends.
Sanity's Eclipse or well timed Spiked Carapace can deal a lot of damage to Outworld Destroyer and stun him, unless Outworld Destroyer used
Black King Bar beforehand.
Mana Burn.
Spiked Carapace will return the full damage from Sanity's Eclipse back to Outworld Devourer. Even a reflected Arcane Orb can deal significant damage and make him vulnerable to a follow-up from Nyx Assassin.
Spiked Carapace is also the perfect tool against Astral Imprisonment: if used on Nyx, he can reflect the damage back as he comes out of the prison by casting the ability while imprisoned.
