Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 9%)Lina
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)Dazzle
* Laguna Blade can kill Dazzle quickly before he casts Shallow Grave.
Vengeful Spirit
* Lina can burst Vengeful Spirit down, provided she can land Light Strike Array before Vengeful Spirit lands her Magic Missile.
* Laguna Blade deals massive damage, often being enough to kill a squishy Vengeful Spirit.
Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 14%)Vengeful Spirit
* Vendetta disables Vengeance Aura and allows him to attack Vengeful Spirit with
Impale and
Mana Burn.
* Spiked Carapace is easy to use against a Wave of Terror or Magic Missile.
Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 17%)Dazzle
* 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.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 9%)Dazzle
* Ice Blast negates healing from Shadow Wave, and lasts longer than Shallow Grave.
Additional:
* Shallow Grave prevents Ice Blast's shatter for up to 5 seconds, but can mostly only delay it as Ice Blast's debuff lasts 10 seconds and prevents
Shadow Wave from healing them.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 2%)Dazzle
* Mirror Image's illusions can easily walk straight at Dazzle and attack him, due to Dazzle's lack of reliable AoE nukes or disables.
* Ensnare roots Dazzle or his allies, making it harder to stay in range of Dazzle's saving abilities.
* Song of the Siren can be used to initiate a fight with superior positioning, potentially zoning Dazzle's high-impact spells out of the fight.
Tidehunter
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 9%)Vengeful Spirit
* 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.
Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 11%)Vengeful Spirit
* Ball Lightning disjoints an incoming Magic Missile, avoids
Wave Of Terror, and allows Storm Spirit to easily escape if he ever gets
Nether Swapped.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Dazzle
* A well-timed Global Silence prevents Dazzle from saving allies with Shallow Grave or Shadow Wave. Items that could dispel the silence are expensive, and difficult for Dazzle to farm from a support role.
* Arcane Curse and
Last Word cause long damage over time, which may outlast Shallow Grave.
Axe
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 9%)Dazzle
* Culling Blade ignores the protection from Shallow Grave, and will kill any target whose health is low enough. This makes Axe one of the hardest counters to Dazzle, and he neutralizes one of Dazzle's most important abilities.
Additional:
* Culling Blade kills any target under the health threshold, even through Shallow Grave.
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 14%)Vengeful Spirit
* Past the mid game, an isolated Vengeful Spirit makes for an easy kill for Anti-Mage.
* Magic Missile is the only disable Vengeful Spirit has against Anti-Mage, but he can either Blink away to disjoint the stun or reflect it back against Vengeful Spirit with
Counterspell.
* Nether Swap isn't very effective against Anti-Mage - if used offensively, Anti-Mage can simply blink away to safety, and if used defensively, Blink's low cooldown allows him to persistently chase as well.
Viper
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 5%)Vengeful Spirit
* Nethertoxin disables Vengeance Aura.
* Vengeful Spirit has no mobility spells aside from Nether Swap, which Viper can take advantage of with his slows.
* Viper can easily bully Vengeful Spirit out of a lane with Poison Attack.
Additional:
* Nethertoxin prevents attack damage bonus from Vengeance Aura and the components of
Nether Swap.
* Both Magic Missile and
Wave of Terror are counteracted by Corrosive Skin, making Vengeful Spirit's fighting harder against Viper.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 17%)Vengeful Spirit
* All of Vengeful Spirit abilities are very good for Rubick to Spell Steal:
* Magic Missile provides an additional nuke/disable to pair with Fade Bolt and
Telekinesis, respectively.
* Wave of Terror serves as a good scouting/armor reduction skill that Rubick and his team can benefit from.
* Nether Swap complements Rubick's mobility and pairs well with other mobility items he usually builds. He can also use it to save an ally from danger.
Beastmaster
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 7%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes who relies on illusions and summons (Beastmaster,
Chaos Knight, etc.).
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 2%)Dazzle
* Support heroes with low mobility can be slowed further by Incapacitating Bite, and swarmed by Spiderlings for an easy kill: Shadow Shaman,
Visage,
Dazzle,
Rubick,
Lich.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Vengeful Spirit
* Nether Swap triggers extra damage from Rupture.
* Blood Rite sets up while Vengeful Spirit using her Nether Swap within a timed correctly.
Dazzle
* Bloodseeker's
Thirst,
Rupture, and huge AoE silence
Blood Rite can fare well against Dazzle.
Dazzle
* Shallow Grave prevents Bloodseeker from replenishing his health by finishing off enemies.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Dazzle
* Heroes with high burst damage through their physical attacks or spells can kill Dazzle or his allies before he has a chance to use Shallow Grave. (Lina,
Lion, etc.)
Riki
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 15%)Vengeful Spirit
* Frail heroes who lacks mobility: Crystal Maiden,
Enigma,
Dark Willow,
Vengeful Spirit.
Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Vengeful Spirit
* Strong nuking supports like Skywrath Mage. Vengeful Spirit has subpar attack range, making it harder for her to harass and last hit safely. With enough pressure she can be bullied out of a lane.
Additional:
* Skywrath Mage should have the upper hand against Vengeful Spirit with Ancient Seal.
* Vengeful is highly dependant on her abilities and has no natural means to deal against silences.
* Her low attack range allows Skywrath Mage to easily bully her out of the lane.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 3%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes who relies on illusions and summons (Beastmaster,
Chaos Knight, etc.).
Invoker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 16%)Dazzle
* Some heroes with extreme range, like Zeus,
Invoker or
Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Zeus

* Some heroes with extreme range, like Zeus,
Invoker or
Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes who have a high mobility (Queen of Pain,
Storm Spirit,
Slark, etc.).
Spectre
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Dazzle
* Spectre's entire ability set is designed to get to and destroy heroes that stay in the backlines, both carries (like the aforementioned Drow Ranger and
Sniper) and supports (like
Dazzle and
Shadow Shaman).
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 8%)Vengeful Spirit
* Magic Missile has a considerably long cast time, making it difficult to stop Charge of Darkness with it.
* Other than Magic Missile, Vengeful Spirit has no way of canceling Nether Strike.
Dazzle
* Heroes that can slow Charge of Darkness by a huge amount: Venomancer,
Viper,
Dazzle,
Arc Warden
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 15%)Dazzle
* Dazzle's lack of a true disable makes him a relatively vulnerable target for Phantom Assassin.
* Coup de Grace will often kill Dazzle's teammates before he has a chance to use Shallow Grave.
Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with disables that ignore spell immunity will render Phantom Assassin quite useless in teamfights throughout the game: Enigma,
Vengeful Spirit,
Doom,
Bane,
Beastmaster,
Pudge.
Legion Commander
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 12%)Dazzle
* Shallow Grave prevents Legion Commander from killing her opponents in Duels.
* Shadow Wave will heal an ally caught in a Duel, as well as dealing damage to Legion Commander.
Vengeful Spirit
* Wave of Terror can reduce Legion Commander's survivability during a Duel.
* Magic Missile and
Nether Swap disrupts Duels and saves allies.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 7%)Vengeful Spirit
* Wave of Terror can reveal a Tinker attempting to hide in the trees and then
Nether Swap and
Magic Missile will both serve to interrupt/lock him down, should he attempt to town portal or reload.
Dazzle
* Shadow Wave provides good sustain against Tinker's spammable abilities.
* Shallow Grave can stop Tinker from bursting down a target.
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 41% pickrate: 4%)Dazzle
* Any hero that can nullify effects of Chronosphere: (Omniknight,
Keeper of the Light with
Aghanim's Scepter during daytime,
Winter Wyvern), banishing him or Faceless Void (
Outworld Destroyer,
Shadow Demon,
Earth Spirit with
Aghanim's Scepter) or protecting him in other ways (
Dazzle,
Oracle,
Abaddon) can greatly limit Chronosphere's potential.
Vengeful Spirit
* With her Nether Swap, a well positioned Vengeful Spirit can save the life of a more important ally who gets caught in Chronosphere. Her Vengeance Aura also makes her an unappealing target for Faceless Void.
Additional:
* Nether Swap can save an ally from the Chronosphere.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Dazzle
* Heroes with abilities that reduce armor will make Huskar very vulnerable: Weaver,
Dazzle,
Bristleback,
Vengeful Spirit.
Vengeful Spirit
* Huskar struggles against heroes that output high physical damage due to his low armor. Vengeful Spirit's Wave of Terror and Vengeance Aura help increase the physical damage of her team.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 18%)Vengeful Spirit
* With the exception of Magic Missile (unless the player takes the Level 25 Talent "Magic Missile Pierces Spell Immunity"), all of Vengeful Spirit's spells ignore Spell Immunity. This also makes her good against heroes with built-in Spell Immunity like Lifestealer or
Juggernaut or heroes that tend to pick up
Black King Bar, like
Sven.
Dazzle
* Heroes with abilities that can save teammates are also effective such as Shadow Demon,
Dazzle,
Oracle,
Bane,
Pugna,
Tusk,
Winter Wyvern,
Io,
Underlord,
Treant Protector and
Keeper of the Light.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 13%)Vengeful Spirit
* Vengeful Spirit has two abilities to interrupt Death Ward, even through Black King Bar.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 1%)Vengeful Spirit
* With Nether Swap, Vengeful Spirit can isolate one of the Meepos, making him an easier kill for the team.
* Her Magic Missile gives her an easy way to cancel Meepo's Poof, preventing isolated Meepos from fleeing.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 19%)Dazzle
* Shallow Grave can be used to save an ally during Dismember and Rot.
* A combination of Bad Juju,
Poison Touch, and items like
Desolator or
Solar Crest can tear off Pudge's low armor, making him even more vulnerable to physical damage.
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 12%)Vengeful Spirit
* Nether Swap breaks one ally out of Soulbind, and can be used to redistribute the shared damage to Vengeful Spirit herself.
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Dazzle
* Shallow Grave saves an ally whom Terrorblade has used Sunder on.
Batrider
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Vengeful Spirit
* With her Nether Swap, Vengeful Spirit can save the life of an ally who gets caught with Flaming Lasso. Nether Swap also makes it highly dangerous for Batrider to attempt a lasso, as it can lead to his own demise far behind enemy lines.
* Wave of Terror's flying vision allows Vengeful Spirit to spot Batrider trying to close in on his target with Firefly.
Additional:
* Nether Swap breaks Flaming Lasso when used on ally and can break if used on Batrider.
* Vengeful Spirit can disable Batrider's Blink Dagger before a fight with
Wave of Terror.
Hoodwink
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Vengeful Spirit
* Nether Swap can forcibly reposition Hoodwink's ultimate ability.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Dazzle
* Venomancer's damage-over-time abilities are easier to heal through with numerous Shadow Waves than other types of damage, and it's simple to time a Shallow Grave until the last possible second to save a teammate from them.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Dazzle
* Some heroes with extreme range, like Zeus,
Invoker or
Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Vengeful Spirit
* Vengeful Spirit can
Nether Swap enemies out of Power Cogs.
Additional:
* Nether Swap gives Vengeful Spirit a way to save an ally from Clockwerk's Power Cogs.
* Magic Missile will interrupt Clockwerk trying to run down Vengeful Spirit's allies with Battery Assault.
Dazzle
* Shadow Wave will hit Clockwerk every time when he's fighting with an enemy inside Power Cogs.
* Due to Clockwerk's slow damage output, Dazzle will have more than enough time to Shallow Grave any enemy Clockwerk initiates on.
Additional:
* Shadow Wave will hit Clockwerk every time when he's fighting with an enemy inside Power Cogs.
* Due to Clockwerk's steady damage output, Dazzle has plenty of time to Shallow Grave anyone Clockwerk initiates on.
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Dazzle
* Dazzle's Shadow Wave is a spammable healing ability that spreads around his entire team, slowing the death of his teammates as effectively as Necrophos spreads damage to them.
* If not immediately, Shallow Grave delays his ally from gradually dying to Necrophos' abilities, especially Reaper's Scythe.
Additional:
* Reaper's Scythe is very predictable and gives you plenty of time to react with Shallow Grave: just keep a close eye on allies below 50% health.
* However, be sure to use Shadow Wave on that ally immediately after, or they will die from Heartstopper Aura when the Shallow Grave ends!
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Vengeful Spirit
* She can easily cancel Wukong's Command with Nether Swap.
* Wave of Terror can also detect him while he's on the trees.

* Nether Swap can easily cancel Wukong's Command by swapping him out of the circle.
Chen
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 0%)Dazzle
* Hand of God has a long cooldown, so damage over time spells can be hazardous for Chen, forcing him to use it prematurely: Jakiro,
Venomancer,
Viper,
Dazzle,
Phoenix.
Mars
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Dazzle
* Heroes that can save their allies can be a big problem for Mars: Dazzle,
Omniknight.

[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 6%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with catch to disrupt Sniper's positioning and deliver him into the enemies: Batrider,

Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Vengeful Spirit
* With the exception of Magic Missile (unless the player takes the Level 25 Talent "Magic Missile Pierces Spell Immunity"), all of Vengeful Spirit's spells ignore Spell Immunity. This also makes her good against heroes with built-in Spell Immunity like Lifestealer or
Juggernaut or heroes that tend to pick up
Black King Bar, like
Sven.
Pangolier
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Vengeful Spirit
* Certain heroes can mess up with Pangolier's positioning and timing (especially if he intends to use Rolling Thunder during combat): Vengeful Spirit,
Keeper of the Light,
Huskar,
Dark Seer
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 14%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with strong channeling spells like Crystal Maiden's

* Heroes with strong channeling spells like Crystal Maiden's
Freezing Field,

Visage
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 1%)Dazzle
* Heroes with armor reducing abilities greatly hinder Visage's defense like Slardar and
Dazzle.
Clinkz
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 5%)Dazzle
* 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: 55% pickrate: 6%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with strong channeling spells like Crystal Maiden's
Freezing Field,
Bane's
Fiend's Grip, and
Enigma's
Black Hole can easily be interrupted from a long range by Nether Swap, assuming they don't have a
Linken's Sphere.
Additional:
* Vengeful Spirit can interrupt Black Hole's channeling through Black King Bar by using Nether Swap from a safe distance.

Vengeful Spirit,
Dark Willow.

Black King Bar, like
Sven.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 3%)Dazzle
* Supports with useful teamfight or contribution spells will be helpless against Doom: Dazzle,
Oracle,
Warlock.
Additional:

Dazzle
* Heroes with the ability to heal allies, or those with good defensive abilities: (Chen,
Dazzle,
Io,
Oracle,
Omniknight,
Witch Doctor,
Winter Wyvern, (

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.

Dazzle
*
Juxtapose and
Doppelganger conjures too many illusions for Dazzle to deal with, given he has no inherent movement- or AoE-abilities.
Phantom Rush and
Spirit Lance allow Phantom Lancer to trivially catch Dazzle even in the back line of a fight.
*
* Phantom Lancer has high base armor which counters Dazzle's physcial damage based spells in lane.
Vengeful Spirit
* Vengeful Spirit has no strong AoE nuke or disable against Phantom Lancer's Illusions.
