Batrider
* 
False Promise dispels Flaming Lasso.
* 
Fortune's End can root Batrider after he uses Flaming Lasso. It can also dispel Sticky Napalm and Flamebreak.
* 
Fate's Edict when used on a Lasso'd target will leave them immune to magical damage, making it difficult to burst them quickly before the Lasso ends.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with dispels: 
Legion Commander, 
Oracle, 
Slark, 
Phantom Lancer
Batrider
* Batrider has poor survivablilty, relying on his mobility from 
Firefly to survive. Stunning him with Ice Path of Liquid Frost can easily spell his doom.
* Batrider tends to cast 
Flaming Lasso on the squishest or the tankiest hero. Which Jakiro is not squishy, nor his generally the tank of the team, Due to this, Jakiro can usually save allies with Ice Path and Liquid Frost, while also potentially removing an entire hero from play for a short period of time.
* Even if Batrider does cast Flaming Lasso on Jakiro, Batrider will generally drag Jakiro into a great setup for Ice Path and Macropyre.
Keeper of the Light
* Jakiro's reliance on his abilities can cause struggles for heroes who rely on evasion or blinds to get upper hand: 
Phantom Assassin, 
Windranger, 
Riki, 
Troll Warlord, 
Keeper of the Light.
Batrider
* Queen of Pain can be an effective tool against Batrider in the game and on the line. She has long-range abilities such as 
Scream of Pain or 
Sonic Wave and a long-range type of attack, which is why she can keep Batrider at a distance all the time, and prevent him from attacking with Flaming Lasso or Firefly. Queen of Pain has an effective high-deceleration ability against Batrider - 
Shadow Strike, which is why he cannot quickly set fire to all enemies under Firefly and fly between all Queen of Pain allies. In addition, Queen of Pain has a wonderful escape in stock - 
Blink, which can save her at any moment in which batrider decides to attack

Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with teleports to escape Solar Blind and Will-O-Wisp: Phantom Assassin, 
Puck, 
Queen of Pain, 
Storm Spirit
Batrider
* Doppelganger dispels 
Sticky Napalm and 
Flamebreak.
* There are usually way too many illusions for Batrider to lasso the real Phantom Lancer, since the illusions' hitboxes also body block the real Phantom Lancer.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with dispels: Legion Commander, Oracle, Slark, Phantom Lancer
Batrider
* 
Press the Attack dispels Flaming Lasso.
* Batrider is unlikely to win a 
Duel in any stage of the game.
Keeper of the Light
* Press the Attack can dispel Blinding Light or Solar Bind from a hero.
* Duel can be used to instantly take Keeper of the Light out of a team-fight.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with abilities that blind or cause Legion Commander to miss will prevent her from winning Duels: 
Arc Warden, Keeper of the Light, Riki, 
Tinker
Batrider
* Sticky Napalm, Flaming Lasso, and Flamebreak can all be instantly dispelled by Aphotic Shield.
* Firefly will continuously heal Abaddon under Borrowed Time.
Additional:
* 
Aphotic Shield and 
Borrowed Time can both dispel Flaming Lasso.
Batrider
* 
Enrage with 
Aghanim's Scepter can dispel Flaming Lasso.
Batrider
* 
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.
Additional:
* 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.
Keeper of the Light
* 
Rage allows him to be immune to all of Ezalor's abilities. Also, the increased movement speed combined with the slow from 
Ghoul Frenzy and the squishy nature of Ezalor allows Lifestealer to take him down very quickly.
Batrider
* 
X Marks the Spot breaks Flaming Lasso when used on ally and can break if used on Batrider.
Batrider
* 
Time Lapse with Aghanim's Scepter dispels Flaming Lasso when used on allied hero.
* 
Linken's Sphere is core item for a Weaver making him a hard target for Lasso during entire game.
Batrider
* 
Kraken Shell can dispel Flaming Lasso.
* If Batrider drags Tidehunter back towards his team, it can be setup for a well placed 
Ravage.
Additional:
* 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.
Keeper of the Light
* Being a cast-oriented hero, Ezalor will suffer from all of Silencer's abilities.
* 
Global Silence is a guaranteed lengthy silence which will render Ezalor useless in a teamfight.
* 
Arcane Curse and 
Last Word are good against any caster, since they are extremely potent.
* However, it should be worth mentioning that a smart Ezalor will buy Eul's Scepter of Divinity to dispel Silencer's abilities. Combined with the level 20 talent (Chakra Magic applies a basic dispel), Ezalor can purge Silencer's abilities off allies and himself alike.
Batrider
* 
Dark Pact can dispel Flaming Lasso if is used in anticipation, but a Blink initiation from fog can catch the Slark off guard.
* Slark can also take off any Sticky Napalm stacks with Dark Pact in lane.
Additional:
* Shadow Dance's passive can inform Slark when he's under enemy vision, meaning it'll be very hard to catch Slark off-guard with Flaming Lasso.
* Flaming Lasso is dispelled by Dark Pact. Its casting can be prevented with 
Shadow Dance or 
Depth Shroud (it requires 
Aghanim's Shard).
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with dispels: Legion Commander, Oracle, Slark, Phantom Lancer
Keeper of the Light
* Melee carries during the laning phase: 
Sven, Slark
Keeper of the Light
* Pugna easily copes on the line with the Keeper of the Light push with his 
Nether Blast, and in addition to 
Nether Ward, the Keeper of the Light is not able to throw 
Illuminate on creeps for a long time, so Pugna earns more gold and a level on the line

Batrider
* QW-Invoker perfectly resists Batrider in his attacks, since Batrider has a small mana reserve and depends very much on him - 
E.M.P. perfectly allows Invoker to deprive her, and he also has the abilities of 
Tornado and 
Cold Snap, which can help him fend off his attack, and possibly even kill along with his team

Batrider
* 
Plague Wards are very hard for Batrider to play against as they provide a lot of vision as well as disable Blink Dagger for a long duration.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with hastes: 
Dark Seer, 
Lycan
Keeper of the Light
* With 
Bloodthorn, Clinkz becomes a strong counter to heroes who rely on evasion and blind such as Windranger, Phantom Assassin, Troll Warlord and Keeper of the Light.
Batrider
* 
Death Prophet is a terrible Flaming Lasso target if 
Exorcism has already been used, since it can still damage Batrider and his teammates, but if Batrider manages to Lasso her before that, it can lead to Death Prophet being quickly burst down.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with channeling abilities: 
Enigma, 
Witch Doctor, 
Crystal Maiden.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with silences: Puck, 
Doom, Riki.
Keeper of the Light
* Any hero who lanes very poorly will struggle with Primal Beast's potential snowball in the very early levels, like Keeper of the Light, 
Luna, 
Templar Assassin...
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with teleports to escape Solar Blind and Will-O-Wisp: Phantom Assassin, Puck, Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit
Keeper of the Light
* Vulnerable spellcasters with no escape mechanisms are easy targets for Huskar: 
Lich, Crystal Maiden, 
Silencer, Keeper of the Light, 
Venomancer, etc.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with channeling abilities: Enigma, Witch Doctor, Crystal Maiden.
Keeper of the Light
* Squishy heroes, usually supports, like 
Lion, 
Ancient Apparition, Keeper of the Light etc can die quickly to Tiny's magic burst.
Batrider
* Zeus is good against heroes that juke in trees or up cliffs, like 
Batrider, 
Monkey King, 
Spectre, and Tinker, by providing vision in any area with Lightning Bolt, or guaranteeing vision on enemies with Thundergod's Wrath.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with silences: Puck, Doom, Riki.
Keeper of the Light
* 
Crippling Fear prevents Keeper of the Light from using his spells to keep his team alive during team-fights.
* 
Dark Ascension is very strong against Keeper of the Light, as it allows Night Stalker to jump the backline and quickly kill the squishy Ezalor, especially when combined with the slow from 
Void.
Additional:
* Keeper of the Light's Aghanim's Scepter upgrade loses much of its power, due to Night Stalker being able to reduce the duration of daytime by a lot.
Batrider
* Heroes with stronger lane presence that can threaten to kill him: Batrider, 
Juggernaut, 
Ursa, Monkey King, 
Razor.
Keeper of the Light
* 
Blood Rite makes Ezalor chose between getting off Illuminate or getting silenced for a while, as Illuminate is a channeled ability.
* Blood Rite's silence can completely take Ezalor out of a teamfight, as he relies on his abilities to be useful.
* Keeper of the Light's only mobility source, his high movement speed (via his high base movement speed and through spirit form), is entirely countered by 
Rupture.
Batrider
* Heroes with disables that go through spell immunity can end Bloodseeker before he has the chance to do anything: Batrider, 
Beastmaster
Keeper of the Light
* Juggernaut's 
Healing Ward keeps his team healthy even when pushing against Keeper of the Light's Illuminate.
* Blade Fury can dispel 
Blinding Light, as well as dodge an incoming Illuminate. Juggernaut can attack towers during Blade Fury, so he can dodge an Illuminate without having to stop pushing.
* Should Keeper of the Light obtain 
Will-o-Wisp through purchasing an Aghanim's Scepter, Juggernaut can make quick work of Ignis Fatuus without being interrupted by its pull.
* Keeper of the Light has low health, low armor, and no natural defense against 
Blade Fury.
Additional:
* Blade Fury allows him to be immune to all of Ezalor's abilities.
* Healing Ward heals his entire team, mitigating Ezalor's weak magical burst damage.
Keeper of the Light
* Keeper of the Light's Blinding Light makes Juggernaut miss his attacks. However, it can be dispelled easily with Blade Fury.
Keeper of the Light
* Being an intelligence caster hero, Ezalor usually has a high mana pool and low health and armor, making him a prime target for 
Mana Void
* Ezalor's Illuminate damage and Solar Bind's magic resistance reduction are greatly reduced thanks to 
Counterspell. Counterspell can also block and reflect Solar Bind if timed properly.
* Anti-Mage usually is not hampered by Solar Bind or Will-O-Wisp thanks to 
Blink.
* However, despite all of this, if Keeper of the Light is played carefully and tops off his team's mana at all times, Anti Mage will not be able to get off a good Mana Void.
* By the same token once Keeper of the Light gets a 
Octarine Core, he can spam Charka Magic to keep his own mana ful
Keeper of the Light
* Keeper of the Light can stall pushes with Illuminate. This makes him strong against pushing heroes: 
Terrorblade 
Naga siren 
Nature's Prophet and 
Anti-Mage
Batrider
* Firefly destroys trees and can turn 
Tree Dance into a free four second stun.
Additional:
* Firefly allows Batrider to gain vision of Monkey King while he is on an tree, as well as destroying any nearby trees, denying Monkey King spots to jump to, or causing him to fall.
* Sticky Napalm's turn rate slow makes it significantly more difficult for Monkey King to jump from tree to tree and gain Jingu Mastery stacks. It also reveals Monkey King while he is on a tree.
* Flamebreak and Flaming Lasso enable Batrider to remove Monkey King out of Wukong's Command.
Keeper of the Light
* Blinding Light can knock Monkey King outside of his ultimate, Wukong's Command and can blind him.
* Will-O-Wisp will stun Monkey King from Tree Dance by destroying his tree.
Additional:
* Blinding Light can easily push Monkey King out of Wukong's Command, as well as blinding him.
* Monkey King is vulnerable to burst damage, 
Solar Bind makes him more so
* However, Keeper of the Light can be easily ganked by Monkey King during early-mid game stage.
Batrider
* Sticky Napalm slows Chen and his creeps and Flamebreak and Firefly can deal heavy damage to them.
* Flaming Lasso can pull Chen away from his creeps toward Batrider's team, often to certain death.
Additional:

Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with summons/illusions/neutral creep armies: Beastmaster, 
Chen, Naga Siren
Batrider
* Many stacks of Sticky Napalm, combined with Flamebreak and Firefly, allows Batrider to destroy illusions from 
Mirror Image.
* If Batrider can manage to destroy all illusions from Naga Siren, he will be able to use Flaming Lasso on the real one, and will be able to drag her toward his team, potentially preventing Naga Siren from escaping with 
Song of the Siren.

Pugna, Invoker, Spectre, 
Alchemist,

Batrider
* Batrider often hides in the trees to initiate on a target. As such, he has a slight edge against heroes that have no scouting tools and cannot see him coming, such as Lion or Sven.
Keeper of the Light
* Melee carries during the laning phase: Sven, Slark
Keeper of the Light
* Illuminate clears Beastmaster's summons and is effective against his push.
Batrider
* As long as Batrider is under the effect of Firefly, he can safely fly over 
Proximity Mines (He does not receive vision over the mines).
Batrider
* Sticky Napalm slows turn rate, making it difficult for Mars to face frontwards, where Spear of Mars and Bulwark are effective. In combination with Firefly, which deals magic damage, Batrider can make quick work of Mars.
* Flaming Lasso disables Mars while enemies re-position themselves behind Mars to avoid Bulwark.
Batrider
* Batrider's Flaming Lasso can be used to cancel Io's attempts to escape with 
Relocate and drag him away from his 
Tethered target. And since Io doesn't like buying Linken's Sphere, he will be always vulnerable to Batrider's initiations.
* Io's tendency to stick close to it's Tethered target can make Io and it's target vulnerable to Batrider's harrasing.
* Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Flaming Lasso allows Batrider to catch and drag two heroes at once, not just one. Which can potentially turn Io's Tether against him.

Focus Fire.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes with teleports to escape Solar Blind and Will-O-Wisp: Phantom Assassin, Puck, Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit
Batrider
* Phantom Assassin does not deal with early aggression very easily (especially when magical damage). A competent Batrider can make life very difficult with Sticky Napalm followed by any other spell.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes which rely exclusively on right clicks will struggle somewhat against Blinding Light: Phantom Assassin, Wraith King, Medusa
Keeper of the Light
* The Keeper of the Light easily farms on the line against the Viper, due to the fact that it has a long-range Illuminate, and the Viper, in turn, cannot use its advantage of dominance on the center line, due to the fact that it does not reach the Keeper of the Light
Additional:

Keeper of the Light
* Illuminate wipes out Broodmother's spiders and prevents her from pushing the lane. It also gives vision to reveal where broodmother is hiding in the trees.
Batrider
* Batrider has huge damage from his Sticky Napalm and hand strikes on the target, with this effect. And Ember Spirit not only has a small reserve of health, but also has a melee type of attack. If these two collide on the center line, then Ember Spirit will have to finish off several creeps from afar with a 
Sleight of Fist, otherwise he will lose a lot of health from long-range Batrider attacks under Sticky Napalm, and possibly even kill, because Ember Spirit does not have the ability to interrupt Batraider with his damage if he decides to attack
* Ember Spirit is a very tasty target for Flaming Lasso, because it has a small reserve of health, and all the power lies in the abilities that Flaming Lasso forbids using, this can help the Batraider team quickly deal with the unpleasant "jumping" Ember Spirit in a fight if he gets into Flaming Lasso

Batrider
* Firefly will cut trees with ease, cleaning-up an area that's been enchanted with 
Eyes In The Forest, and potentially revealing a Treant under the effects of 
Nature's Guise.
* Batrider's DoT spells are also good versus 
Living Armor.
Batrider
* Batrider can harass Arc Warden more easily with Sticky Napalm thanks to it's low cooldown and mana cost and because of Arc Warden's lower durability and mobility.
* Batrider can use Flamebreak to push Arc Warden and 
Tempest Double out of the 
Magnetic Field.
* With Firefly combined with Blink Dagger, Batrider can move faster while dealing damage to both Arc Warden and Tempest Double.
* Flaming Lasso allows Batrider to separate Arc Warden from both Magnetic Field and Tempest Double and pull him towards Batrider's team. Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Flaming Lasso also allows Batrider to disable both, real Arc Warden and his Tempest Double and pull them towards Batrider's team. And since Arc Warden is not used to buy Linken's Sphere, this can be a great problem to him.
* Since Arc Warden is not used to buy 
Black King Bar very ofthen In most of the stages of the game, he will be vulnerable to Batrider's magical damage-over-time output in most of the stages of the game.
* However, Batrider needs to approach Arc Warden carefully as Arc Warden can scout Batrider's location with 
Spark Wraith. Also, Arc Warden tends to buy 
Gleipnir which combined with 
Flux's damage over time can be used to prevent Batrider from even using Blink Dagger.

Disruptor, Pudge, Vengeful Spirit.
Keeper of the Light
* Any hero that can nullify effects of Chronosphere: (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.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes that punish mobile heroes: 
Bloodseeker, Keeper of the Light, Kunkka, Disruptor.
Batrider
* For the same reason, he has to be slightly more cunning when playing against heroes that can scout the treeline, such as Ancient Apparition and his 
Ice Vortex and Shadow Demon and his 
Shadow Poison.
Batrider
* Heroes with abilities that can pull Lina out of position can easily bring her to their team mates, like Batrider with Flaming Lasso, Pudge with 
Meat Hook and Vengeful Spirit with Nether Swap.
Keeper of the Light
* Heroes which rely exclusively on right clicks will struggle somewhat against Blinding Light: Phantom Assassin, Wraith King, Medusa

Meepo, 
Clinkz, Templar Assassin
Batrider
* Batrider's DoT damage quickly removes Templar Assassin's 
Refraction and can damage her during 
Meld.
Additional:
* Batrider's abilities are designed to deal damage over time, burning through Templar Assassin's layers extremely quickly. Flamebreak applies 7 instances of damage, burning through the entirety of Refraction, and Firefly applies damage on the place, forcing her to either get out of Meld and be attacked or stay in place or be incinerated.
* Flaming Lasso pierces Black King Bar and rendering Templar Assassin helpless unless there are allies helping her.
