Necrophos
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 11%)Tidehunter
* Mana Burn can instantly deplete Tidehunter's low mana pool, especially in the early game, potentially preventing Tidehunter from casting Ravage.
* Ravage's travel time allows Nyx Assassin to easily stun Tidehunter with Spiked Carapace.
* Vendetta offers a very rare break effect, which fully disables Kraken Shell and makes Tidehunter susceptible to follow-up disables.
Winter Wyvern
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% 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.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 2%)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.
Phoenix
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)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.
Ursa
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 12%)Tidehunter
* Fury Swipes will keep stacking on Tidehunter since it cannot be dispelled by Kraken Shell and its bonus damage cannot be reduced by Anchor Smash.
* Enrage dispels the slow from Gush, and if upgraded with
Aghanim's Scepter, can even dispel Ravage's stun.
Death Prophet
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)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
Disruptor
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Tidehunter
* In the mid-game, Tidehunter relies on Kraken Shell to stay alive and get his
Ravage off. Apart from Thunder Strike, none of Disruptor's abilities can be dispelled, so it's rather easy to trap him inside Kinetic Field and Static Storm.
* Be mindful, however, that Kraken Shell still makes Tidehunter very tanky, so be sure that you can kill him with your combo or your partners while he is silenced and trapped.
Brewmaster
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)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: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 12%)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.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)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.
Slark
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 12%)Tidehunter
* Dark Pact dispels debuffs from Gush, Anchor Smash and even Ravage if timed correctly.
* Kraken Shell cannot restore attributes stolen by Essence Shift or dispel the leash if he gets
Pounced.
Viper
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Tidehunter
* Nethertoxin cancels out Kraken Shell and stops the hard dispel from passively activating, preventing Tidehunter from functioning as a frontline tank.
* Anchor Smash is mostly irrelevant against a ranged hero.
* Tidehunter relies on the threat of Ravage, which has an obscenely long cooldown. Viper can exploit the downtime with his short cooldowns.
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 14%)Tidehunter
* Both Gush and
Ravage do little damage against Counterspell.
* Blink helps Anti-Mage escape through Anchor Smash.
* Tidehunter's small mana pool can be eated by Mana Break, preventing to spam his abilities and ignores the protection from Kraken Shell.
Additional:
* Mana Break quickly burns Tidehunter's mana pool, preventing him from spamming his abilities, and Kraken Shell does not mitigate the bonus damage component.
* Blink allows Anti-Mage to enter combat quickly and safely after Ravage.
Morphling
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% 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.
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Lone Druid
* Grimstroke's Soulbind will always reliably connect onto both of them if they are close together.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 17%)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.
Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)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.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 7%)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
Riki
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 10%)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.
Razor
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 2%)Tidehunter
* Heroes who relies on high armor such as Dragon Knight,
Tidehunter, and
Pudge can be melted by Eye of the Storm.
Additional:
* Kraken Shell's dispel does not restore damage stolen by Static Link, and the stolen damage easily offsets Anchor Smash's damage reduction. Razor can keep attacking Tidehunter from afar, denying his chance to use Anchor Smash.
* Eye of the Storm melts Tidehunter's armor and makes him much less tanky.
* Razor can chase Tidehunter by himself without relying on actual crowd control ability, so the strong dispel from Kraken Shell is less useful.
Treant Protector
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 6%)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: 4%)Lone Druid
* Pugna:
Decrepify prevent the Spirit bear from attacking or protect allies from it.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Lone Druid
* Timbersaw: Lone Druid will have a hard time dealing with Timbersaw due to his tankiness and high Armor from
Reactive Armor
Earth Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Tidehunter
* Positioning-reliant heroes (Windranger,
Tidehunter,
Ursa...), since Earth Spirit can disrupt positioning with his Boulder Smash.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Tidehunter
* Heroes who Sniper can kite: Sven,
Wraith King,
Kunkka,
Doom,
Tidehunter,
Underlord,
Troll Warlord, and etc.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 17%)Tidehunter
* Heroes with strong team-fight abilities (especially ultimates) like Tidehunter,
Brewmaster,
Death Prophet, etc.
Additional:
* Fade Bolt reduces damage output of Anchor Smash.
* Ravage is an easy target to Spell Steal, so always be sure to use Anchor Smash immediately after Ravage when playing against a Rubick.
* Spells stolen by Rubick are potentially stronger due to the lack of cast animations, his talents, and his passive, Arcane Supremacy.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 3%)Tidehunter
* Infernal Blade deals scaling damage and is useful against high HP targets such as Tidehunter.
* If Doom gets an Aghanim's Scepter, he can also disable
Kraken Shell, reducing his survivability and tankiness.
* Doom prevents Tidehunter from casting his Gush,
Anchor Smash and
Ravage, making him useless in team fights.
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: -1.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 4%)Tidehunter
* Most summons and illusions can barely hurt Tidehunter at all, after their attacks get reduced by Anchor Smash and blocked by Kraken Shell: Nature's Prophet,
Enigma
* Also Ravage's large area of effect and damage can easily damage all those units at once, or just straight up clear them.
Lone Druid
* Once caught in Bear's Entangle, Nature's Prophet cannot escape with Teleportation.
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 13%)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.
Tidehunter
* Gush can make Crystal Maiden's already weak armor even weaker.
* Kraken Shell can dispel Frostbite, preventing him from getting stuck inside Freezing Field.
* Ravage is very useful for interrupting Freezing Field, even while Crystal Maiden is under the effects of
Glimmer Cape. Crystal Maiden must purchase a
Black King Bar, which is far more costly.
Shadow Fiend
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 19%)Tidehunter
* Kraken Shell dispels both Shadowraze's damage amplification stacks and Requiem of Soul's damage reduction (provided Tidehunter has taken enough damage).
* Ravage cancels Requiem of Souls if Shadow Fiend isn't protected by
Black King Bar.
Additional:
* Kraken Shell dispels the damage amplification stacks of Shadowraze as well as the damage reduction from
Requiem of Souls (provided he has taken enough damage).
* Anchor Smash reduces Shadow Fiend's large attack damage, Kraken Shell makes Tidehunter the last target Shadow Fiend wants to attack.
* Ravage can easily cancel Requiem of Souls if Shadow Fiend isn't protected by
Black King Bar.
Batrider
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 4%)Tidehunter
* Kraken Shell is very useful against Sticky Napalm and
Flamebreak, easily dispelling them regularly.
* Tidehunter is probably the worst hero to target with Flaming Lasso, as Kraken Shell will remove it and Tidehunter often survives long enough to cast Ravage in the middle of Batrider's team. At the same time, if Batrider initiates on his teammate, Tidehunter will have the perfect opportunity to counter-initiate.
Additional:
* Kraken Shell can dispel Flaming Lasso.
* If Batrider drags Tidehunter back towards his team, it can be setup for a well placed Ravage.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 22%)Tidehunter
* Gush reduces Pudge's armor which he already lacks.
* Kraken Shell can dispel Dismember after reaching a certain threshold of damage.
* Tidehunter's naturally high health, strength gain, and common itemization for survivability through magic resistance make Tidehunter a poor target.
Vengeful Spirit
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Tidehunter
* Vengeful Spirit should carefully consider whether to use her Nether Swap on Tidehunter, as it can easily position him for a Ravage on Vengeful Spirit and her allies.
* Due to Magic Missile's high damage, Kraken Shell will often proc and clear Tidehunter's debuffs.
Lion
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 15%)Tidehunter
* Tidehunter naturally has a high health pool and thus makes it hard for Lion to burst him down. Kraken Shell further mitigates this by dispelling any disables Lion casts when Tidehunter takes enough damage.
* Gush and
Ravage can both not only burst Lion down, but also catch him out and prevent him from escaping.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 16%)Tidehunter
* Kraken Shell easily dispels the lengthy stun from Shackleshot.
* Kraken Shell (and possibly Anchor Smash) blocks huge amount of damage from Focus Fire.
* Anchor Smash is one of the few sources of True Strike, which means Tidehunter can deal significant damage through Windrun, while also reducing Windranger's damage output.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Lone Druid
* Silencer's disables are useless on Lone Druid since he is more reliant on physical attacks rather than spells.
Bane
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 5%)Tidehunter
* Kraken Shell dispels Fiend's Grip, wasting it easily.
Visage
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Tidehunter
* Visage's Familiars cannot penetrate Kraken Shell and will do almost no damage to
Tidehunter even with
Medallion of Courage or
Solar Crest.
* Anchor Smash's bonus damage has the potential to kill Familiars.
Sand King
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 10%)Tidehunter
* Ravage, being an AoE disable, cancels Epicenter's channeling from a long range, limiting his potential to counter-initiate.
* This can be remedied, however, by first using a Black King Bar, then channel Epicenter, then finally initiate with
Blink Dagger.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 2%)Tidehunter
* Kraken Shell makes Tidehunter take nearly no damage from Spiderlings.
* Anchor Smash kills Spiderlings in one or two casts, should Broodmother try to swarm Tidehunter with them.
Lycan
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 57% pickrate: 6%)Tidehunter
* Kraken Shell grants him massive physical attack protection
* Anchor Smash will wipe the area, clearing Lycan's wolves.
Magnus
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 7%)Tidehunter
* Any hero who can counter-initiate in anticipation without getting caught in Reverse Polarity: Sven,
Omniknight,
Enigma,
Luna,
Naga Siren,
Mars,
Jakiro,
Venomancer,
Elder Titan,
Faceless Void,
Rubick,
Keeper of the Light,
Pugna,
Invoker,
Spectre,
Alchemist,
Treant Protector,
Lina,
Oracle,
Zeus,
Shadow Shaman,
Phoenix,
Razor,
Huskar,
Batrider,
Kunkka,
Tidehunter,
Wraith King,
Sand King.
Medusa
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 2%)Tidehunter
* Other heroes who has armor and slow debuffs won't allow Medusa to disengage from combat: Tidehunter,
Bristleback,
Slardar.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 3%)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.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Tidehunter
* Heroes who can stun multiple units at once: Dark Willow,
Spirit Breaker,
Slardar,
Invoker, and
Tidehunter.
Slardar
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Tidehunter
* Tidehunter's
Kraken Shell dispels Corrosive Haze and Bash of the Deep's stun if enough damage is taken.
Anchor Smash and Kraken Shell's damage block also reduces Slardar's damage.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 8%)Tidehunter
* Tidehunter's Anchor Smash decreases Drow Ranger's attack damage.
Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% 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.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 8%)Tidehunter
* Durable heroes: Axe,
Bristleback,
Tidehunter,
Wraith King
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 13%)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.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 8%)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.
Bounty Hunter
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 8%)Tidehunter
* Tidehunter with
Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:
* Abaddon with
Aphotic Shield and
Borrowed Time
* Huskar with
Life Break
* Juggernaut with
Blade Fury
* Legion Commander with
Press the Attack
* Lifestealer with
Rage and
Infest
* Naga Siren with
Mirror Image
* Omniknight with
Heavenly Grace
* Oracle with
Fortune's End and
False Promise
* Phantom Lancer with
Doppelganger
* Slark with
Dark Pact
* Ursa with
Enrage
* Weaver with
Time Lapse
* Tidehunter with
Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Clinkz
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 6%)Tidehunter
* Heroes that excel at grouping up with their team very early will be able to take advantage of a Clinkz that tries to pick off heroes that are alone: Brewmaster,
Dazzle,
Tidehunter.
Enigma
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 4%)Tidehunter
* Most summons and illusions can barely hurt Tidehunter at all, after their attacks get reduced by Anchor Smash and blocked by Kraken Shell: Nature's Prophet,
Enigma
* Also Ravage's large area of effect and damage can easily damage all those units at once, or just straight up clear them.
Luna
[wiki] rating: -0.2 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Tidehunter
* Luna often builds Black King Bar, and none of Tidehunter's spells can bypass spell immunity.
* Lucent Beam and
Eclipse deal a lot of magic damage in the early and mid-game, which can bypass Kraken Shell.
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).
Tidehunter
* Heroes that rely on base damage: Luna,
Phantom Lancer are easily countered with Anchor Smash.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 47% 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.
Tidehunter
* Kraken Shell dispels the stun from Paralyzing Cask. However, it does not dispel the damage from Maledict.
* Once Witch Doctor first uses his Death Ward in team fights, Tidehunter can simply cancel it with Ravage, turning the tables against him, especially if Witch Doctor does not have a
Black King Bar.
* As a precaution, let Tidehunter use Ravage first before channeling Death Ward to turn a team fight in your favor.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 7%)Lone Druid
* Lone Druid and his Spirit Bear lack mobility, and are easy overwhelmed after being slowed by Diffusal Blade.
Tidehunter
* Kraken Shell and
Anchor Smash makes it very difficult for Phantom Lancer's illusions to damage to Tidehunter.
* Ravage will stun the real Phantom Lancer while clearing most of his illusions.
* Anchor Smash reduces base damage, which is the majority of Phantom Lancer's auto-attack damage.
* An Aghanim's Scepter upgraded
Gush slows down and reduces all of Phantom Lancer's illusions.
Additional:
* A dozen of Phantom Lancer's illusions with all their might can barely hurt Tidehunter at all thanks to Kraken Shell and Anchor Smash. The only way Phantom Lancer can hurt Tidehunter is through the mana burn provided by Diffusal Blade.
* Even with high chasing power from Spirit Lance and
Phantom Rush (and even
Diffusal Blade), Tide Hunter can shrug it all off with Kraken Shell and escape by using a
Town Portal Scroll or just moving away.
* The AoE nukes from Ravage, Anchor Smash, and an Aghanim's Scepter-upgraded Gush can clear Phantom Lancer's illusions easily.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)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.
Tidehunter
* Ravage damages and disables Chaos Knight's army.
* Anchor Smash deals respectable area damage at early levels and lowers Chaos Knight's damage.
* Kraken Shell dispels Chaos Bolt and Reality Rift while providing protection from damage.

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.

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.
*
Tidehunter
* No matter how Tidehunter builds tanky items such as (
Guardian Greaves,
Crimson Guard or
Pipe of Insight), all it needs is for him to fall below a certain percentage of health for him to fall to Reaper's Scythe.
