[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)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.
Treant Protector
* Doppelganger can dispel Leech Seed. It can also destroy large amounts of trees, counteracting Nature's Guise and Eyes in the Forest.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 3%)Treant Protector
* Spiderlings melt away Living Armor almost instantly.
* The vision from Eyes In The Forest may prove dangerous for Broodmother, however.

Aghanim's Scepter can dispel Flaming Lasso.

* Living Armor can be destroyed quickly with Ion Shell.
Oracle
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)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.
Slark
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)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).
Abaddon
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)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.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Batrider

* Corrosive Haze will reveal Treant Protector even when he is under the effects of Nature's Guise.

* 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.

[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Batrider
* Nyx can walk into Firefly with Spiked Carapace and stun Batrider if he has no Spell Immunity, even if Batrider is focusing on other enemy hero.

[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)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.
Tidehunter
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)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.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 25%)Treant Protector
* All of Treant Protector's abilities are worth stealing, and Rubick is able to cast them with no animation time.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)Treant Protector
* Timbersaw can use his plethora of tree cutting abilities to level entire sections of the forest, making hiding in the trees more difficult for Treant Protector and his team.
* Timbersaw can easily cut down Treant Protector's Eyes In The Forest once his team has detection. He may even do it unknowingly due to the sheer destructive and chaotic nature of his abilities.
Additional:
* Not only are all of Timbersaw's active abilities capable of cutting down trees, but Whirling Death and
Timber Chain also require it to be effective, counteracting both Treant Protector's Nature's Guise and Eyes in the Forest abilities.
Death Prophet
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 11%)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.
Bounty Hunter
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Treant Protector

Phoenix,
Puck,

Living Armor will also negate Tidebringer's damage.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)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.
Treant Protector
* Overgrowth prevents Phantom Assassin from using Blink Strike even through her spell immunity.
* Living Armor reduces Phantom Assassin's physical damage whenever she attempts to gank an allied hero.
Io
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)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.

Pudge,
Batrider,

[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 13%)Treant Protector

Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Batrider
* Batrider's DoT damage quickly removes Templar Assassin's Refraction and can damage her during
Meld.
Additional:

Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Treant Protector

Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Treant Protector
* If Storm Spirit is caught in an Overgrowth, he is shut down.
* With the exception of Electric Vortex, he won't be able to cast any relevant skill.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 18%)Treant Protector
* Another hero heavily based on attacks and no mobility, being an easy prey for Treant strong disarms and motion reduction skills.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Batrider
* Many stacks of Sticky Napalm, combined with Flamebreak and Firefly, allows Batrider to destroy illusions from Mirror Image.

Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 11%)Treant Protector
* Anti-Mage relies on blinking and attacking. Overgrowth prevents both.
* Be wary that he will eventually farm up a Manta Style that fully dispels Overgrowth. Good players will wait for your ultimate to use their manta. Perhaps an ally has a silence or similar that would force him to use his manta before your ultimate.

Dazzle,
Oracle,
Bane,

Winter Wyvern,
Io,
Underlord,
Treant Protector and
Keeper of the Light.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Batrider

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 win rate 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.
