Ogre Magi
* Lifestealer's Rage makes him immune to all of Ogre's magical debuffs and also dispels them.
* Ogre's high health pool makes him an ideal target for Feast.
Additional:
* Ogre Magi has nothing against 
Rage and his high health pool amplifies 
Feast.
Ogre Magi
* 
Fate's Edict gives full immunity from Ogre Magi's mostly magical damage.
* 
Fortune's End can dispel Ignite (when used on allies) and Bloodlust (when used on enemies).
* 
False Promise can dispel Ignite and Fireblast.
Brewmaster
* After Brewmaster has committed Thunder Clap and Cinder Brew to gank, Bane can use 
Nightmare on Brewmaster to wait out the debuffs, and might even turn the tables by buying time for allied reinforcements.
* Bane can also prevent Brewmaster from using Primal Split with his long disables.
Ogre Magi
* Ogre Magi has single-targeted magical-only damage and disables and is less effective against Meepo's clones.
Brewmaster
* Outworld Destroyer's pure damage will mop up Primal Split's units very quickly.
Ogre Magi
* Undying saps strength from heroes with Decay, and Ogre Magi's high strength gain will allow Undying to steal more and more strength, becoming stronger with each use.
* Due to the Strength steal from Decay, Undying is normally very tanky, and has high health, making it harder for Ogre Magi to kill him.
Ogre Magi
* 
Viper Strike breaks Multicast.
* 
Corrosive Skin minimizes the damage from Ignite and Fireblast.
Brewmaster
* 
Exorcism kills Primal Split's units very quickly.
Brewmaster
* 
Hex's instant cast time will force Brewmaster into the awkward situation of needing some form of spell immunity or block to prevent being immediately hex upon blinking in, or wait until Lion has used all his crowd control before entering a fight. His direct magic burst also makes Brewmaster's Drunken Brawler worthless versus Lion.
Brewmaster
* 
Ancient Seal's instant cast time will often silence Brewmaster before he can do anything.
* Brewmaster also has no defense against Skywrath Mage's massive magical damage.
Ogre Magi
* 
Dark Pact dispels Ignite's slow and Fireblast's stun.
* 
Shadow Dance allows Slark to regenerate HP, even when he is affected by Ignite and Fireblast.
Ogre Magi
* Ogre Magi has no undispellable AoE damage or disables and has nothing to deal with Phantom Lancer's illusions.
* 
Doppelganger disjoints and dispels Ignite.
Ogre Magi
* 
Doom makes Ogre Magi less disruptive.
* 
Infernal Blade effectively negates Ogre Magi's durability.
* With 
Aghanim's Scepter, he can disable Multicast.
Ogre Magi
* Heroes rely on their debuff to control the opponent will have a hard time against Press the Attack: 
Venomancer, 
Earth Spirit, 
Ogre Magi
Ogre Magi
* 
Winter Wyvern's 
Winter's Curse works very well against the increased attack speed from Bloodlust.
Ogre Magi
* Earth Spirit's useful kit of Slows, Stuns, and Silences can set up kills on Ogre Magi and the silence can stop him from using his abilities.
Ogre Magi
* 
Arc Warden's 
Tempest Double is helpful for killing Ogre Magi who lacks AoE damage and disables.
Ogre Magi
* 
Puck silences Ogre Magi with 
Waning Rift, and 
Phase Shift makes Puck untargetable for the duration.
Brewmaster
* Blinking heroes like 
Anti-Mage or 
Queen of Pain can often chase down an injured Brewmaster after his ultimate expires.
Brewmaster
* Heroes with strong team-fight abilities (especially ultimates) like 
Tidehunter, 
Brewmaster, 
Death Prophet, etc.
Brewmaster
* The three Primal Split brewlings all attacking Templar Assassin at once will remove her 
Refraction quickly, especially with Fire's Permanent Immolation.
* Templar Assassin has no way to stop Brewmaster from using Primal Split by herself, and may get unlucky and miss her 
Meld if trying to burst him during her ally's disable.
Ogre Magi
* The damage block instances of Refraction can be burned down with Ignite.
* Fire Shield effectively reduces the burst damage from a Meld-charged ambush from Templar Assassin, provided the spell is cast beforehand.
Brewmaster
* Heroes who produce many summons will have a hard time against Storm's Dispel Magic during teamfight: 
Broodmother, 
Enigma, 
Nature's Prophet.
Ogre Magi
* Nature's Prophet treants can be cleared by Ignite or Multicast 
Hand of Midas
* Fireblast and Unrefined Fireblast prevents Nature's Prophet from using 
Teleportation.
Ogre Magi
* Multicast Fireblasts over the course of fights are a decent nuisance to stall Sven's massive damage output.
* Bloodlust and Ignite gives Ogre Magi's team the movement speed difference needed to chase and/or disengage against a Sven and his 
Warcry.
* Ignite provides strong damage over time to pressure Sven early on in the laning phase and keep his health low, delaying his transition into the jungle. Ignite is also an easy way to disrupt 
Blink Dagger, Sven's most popular way of initiation.
* Ogre Magi's presence in the laning phase both in terms of damage and durability keeps high pressure on Sven in lane.
* Purchasing an 
Aghanim's Shard allows Ogre Magi to greatly reduce the burst damage of Sven, who tends to build items focused on damage per hit instead of attack speed.
Brewmaster
* 
Cinder Brew and 
Drunken Brawler makes it hard for Monkey King to stack Jingu Mastery.
* 
Cyclone can remove Monkey king for 6 seconds if his allies lack dispels.
* 
Dispel Magic can dispel Jingu Mastery's bonuses.
Ogre Magi
* It is difficult for Mars to trade blows with Ogre Magi in the early game thanks to his high base health, resistance and 
Ignite.
* 
Bloodlust can assist Ogre Magi or an ally in repositioning against Mars for its move speed bonus.
* 
Fireblast can interrupt and mitigate Mars from performing his skill combos, especially in combination with 
Multicast.
Ogre Magi
* Ignite can prevent Earthshaker from escaping and/or initiating with Blink Dagger.
* Fireblast and Unrefined Fireblast may help prevent Earthshaker follow through with his combo after landing an 
Echo Slam.
Brewmaster
* Brewmaster can use Cyclone to disable Huskar's healer for much longer than most other heroes can, to make Huskar vulnerable.
* Huskar has no way to stop Brewmaster from using Primal Split by himself, but can cut a good amount of his high health away if Huskar's team wants to burst Brewmaster down during a different disable.
Brewmaster
* If Ursa uses 
Enrage Brewmaster can use Cyclone to render him harmless during his ultimate.
* Brewmaster has two spells to slow down Ursa, allowing his team to kite around him easily.
Brewmaster
* 
Primal Split makes Brewmaster invulnerable for the duration, rendering effects of Cold Feet and Ice Blast useless.
* Dispel Magic can dispel Cold Feet from allies.
* Brewmaster can easily run Ancient Apparition down with the slow from 
Thunder Clap and Cinder Brew.
Brewmaster
* Cyclone from Storm in Primal Split can waste Nyx's Spiked Carapace, since its duration is shorter than the Cyclone's.
Brewmaster
* Brewmaster can waste a large portion of Lycan's ultimate by putting him in Cyclone.
* Lycan has no way to stop Brewmaster from using Primal Split by himself.
* Lycan's team often tries to push towers as a group, and Brewmaster excels at winning teamfights while trying to defend a tower.
Ogre Magi
* Fireblast is a good tool to interrupt Io during its escapes through 
Tether.
* Ignite can be one of the few spells with enough total damage to out-trade the sustained healing Io provides for its fellow laner.
* However, picking other supports that focus less on the laning phase is generally a better choice against Io.
Brewmaster
* 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.
Brewmaster
* {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.
Brewmaster
* In general, Brewmaster's Cinder Brew and Thunder Clap makes him good against physical damage carries: 
Ursa, 
Clinkz, 
Faceless Void, 
Troll Warlord, 
Templar Assassin, 
Phantom Assassin.
Additional:
* Thunder Clap and Drunken Brawler prevent Faceless Void from maximising his damage potential in fights.
* Cyclone disables Faceless Void during Chronosphere or in general.

Luna, 
Pugna or Ogre Magi, Enigma, 
Batrider, 
Techies, Broodmother, 
Dawnbreaker, 
Shadow Shaman, 
Bane, Tinker, Venomancer, Arc Warden.
Ogre Magi
* Supports who can slow him to the point Trample does very little damage in the lane are also not fun: 
Lich, Ogre Magi, Winter Wyvern.

Oracle.
Brewmaster

Sven, 
Tiny, 
Wraith King, Ogre Magi.
Brewmaster
* Heroes who produce many summons will have a hard time against Storm's Dispel Magic during teamfight: Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet.
Ogre Magi
* In general, heroes that deal burst in multiple instances will trigger Borrowed Time and heal Abaddon for a large amount, such as 
Skywrath Mage, Techies, Juggernaut, Shadow Shaman, or Ogre Magi.
Brewmaster
* {U:Storm} can use Cyclone on Abaddon when he activates Borrowed Time, wasting its duration.
* Drunken Brawler and Thunder Clap hinder Abaddon from applying Curse of Avernus' silence on him.
Additional:
* Dispel Magic can remove Abaddon's 
Aphotic Shield or 
Curse of Avernus on an allied hero.
* Cyclone's lengthy duration wastes much of 
Borrowed Time's duration.
Ogre Magi
* Phantasm dispels Ignite and makes targeting the real Chaos Knight much harder.
Brewmaster
* Storm's Dispel Magic combined with Thunder Clap deals high damage against Chaos Knight's illusions even in the late game.
* Chaos Knight's reliance on physical damage is easily hindered by Drunken Brawler.
* Chaos Knight's lack of area effect and mobility makes him easily overwhelmed by Primal Split.
Additional:
* Dispel Magic from {U:Storm} can instantly kill Phantasms early on, and can still deal a lot of damage to them late game, revealing the real Chaos Knight.
Brewmaster
* Brewmaster is slow and has low armor, making his laning stage very difficult against Geminate Attack.
* Apart from the slow moving Hurl Boulder, which can be disjointed, he has no control to catch Weaver.
Ogre Magi
* A well-timed Fireblast with Multicast can prevent Weaver from escaping with 
Shukuchi and even 
Time Lapse.
* Ignite's high damage early on applies heavy pressure onto Weaver's very small health pool.
* However, the slow from Ignite is generally useless against Shukuchi, and Time Lapse dispels it if needed.
Ogre Magi
* 
Heavenly Grace reduces Fireblast stun time and dispels Ignite.
* 
Purification can heal damaged heroes if needed.
Brewmaster
* Dispel Magic from {U:Storm} instantly removes Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel from Omniknight's allies in its radius of effect.
Brewmaster
* 
Hex's instant cast time will force Brewmaster into the awkward situation of needing some form of spell immunity or block to prevent being immediately hex upon blinking in, or wait until Shaman has used all his crowd control before entering a fight.
* Brewmaster also has no defense against Shadow Shaman lockdowns.
Ogre Magi
* Stunt from Fireblast can combinated Multicast after Ogre Magi level 6 canceled from Shadow Shaman's channeling.
Brewmaster
* Blinking heroes like
Anti-Mage or 
Queen of Pain can often chase down an injured Brewmaster after his ultimate expires.
Ogre Magi
* Ogre Magi only deals magical damage, which Anti-Mage is exceptionally resistant due to Counterspell.
Ignite with 
Manta Style.
Blink and his intelligence gain and build making 
Mana Void deal more damage.
