Clinkz
* 
Cold Embrace can heal herself or an ally, as well as protecting them from Clinkz's physical attacks and wasting his mana if Searing Arrows is on autocast.
* 
Winter's Curse allows Winter Wyvern to turn Clinkz's high damage and high attack speed against his allies, or take advantage of Clinkz's fragility if he can't use Skeleton Walk.
Ogre Magi
* 
Winter Wyvern's Winter's Curse works very well against the increased attack speed from Bloodlust.
Clinkz
* 
Searing Arrows and Clinkz physical damage items are almost suicidal when used on Legion Commander, as it invites an instant Duel and Legion Commander herself is a natural 
Blade Mail carrier.
* Duel locks down Clinkz for a long duration, preventing him from escaping with 
Skeleton Walk.
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
* Ogre Magi has single-targeted magical-only damage and disables and is less effective against Meepo's clones.
Clinkz
* Slardar can reveal Clinkz with 
Corrosive Haze and make him easy to kill, and his 
Bash of the Deep also hits hard against Clinkz's naturally low health pool.
* Slardar's 
Guardian Sprint can catch up with Clinkz's Skeleton Walk.
* The stun and slow from Slardar's 
Slithereen Crush can hold Clinkz in place.
Additional:
* Clinkz survivability depends entirely on Skeleton Walk. Corrosive Haze not only makes its invisibility useless, but also makes Clinkz even more vulnerable to physical damage.
Clinkz
* Clinkz will often roam the map alone, and Treant Protector's 
Nature's Guise allows him to set up kills with his allies on Clinkz from invisibility.
* Treant Protector's very high damage allowing him to trade hits or contest last hits with Clinkz, while 
Living Armor can be used to sustain the harass.
* Living Armor protects any of Treant's allies ganked by Clinkz.
* In teamfights, Treant Protector's 
Overgrowth can disarm Clinkz, preventing him from turning invisible and holding him in place even if he has a 
Black King Bar.
* 
Leech Seed slows Clinkz, preventing him from repositioning or fleeing away from danger.
Clinkz
* Zeus can reveal Clinkz with 
Lightning Bolt.
* He is vulnerable to Zeus's magical nukes, due to his low health pool.
Ogre Magi
* 
Phantasm dispels Ignite and makes targeting the real Chaos Knight much harder.
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.
Clinkz
* The long silence at night prevents Clinkz from escaping with invisibility if Night Stalker can sneak up on him. He also has really low base health, so Night Stalker can usually kill him alone during one cast of Crippling Fear at night.
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.
Clinkz
* Lina's damage burst can quickly kill Clinkz before he saves them with Skeleton Walk.
* Fiery Soul attack speed bonus removes 
Burning Army easily in all stages of the game.
Clinkz
* Skeleton Walk is not enough to outrun Bloodseeker, and is detected by Thirst.
* Because of his low health and high damage output, Clinkz will get obliterated by Blade Mail
Additional:
* 
Thirst reveals Clinkz if he tries to escape with Skeleton Walk with low health. It also allows Bloodseeker to match or exceed Clinkz's speed.
* 
Rupture negates the mobility provided by Skeleton Walk in any attempt to escape or reposition in fights.
* Bloodseeker can easily build items to counter Clinkz, including 
Talisman of Evasion upgrades, Blade Mail, and armor items.
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.
Clinkz
* Clinkz has no stun and likes to keep his distance from targets, making Marksmanship very deadly.
* Clinkz also has low health, making him a perfect hero to initiate onto with Gust.
* Gust can also prevent Clinkz from using 
Burning Barrage.
Clinkz
* 
Hex and 
Earth Spike can hold Clinkz down, giving him no chance to use Black King Bar or Skeleton Walk.
* 
Finger of Death quickly kills Clinkz due to his low health.
Clinkz
* By using 
Morph, Morphling can use Burning Barrage and Searing Arrows to counter Clinkz himself.
* 
Waveform can allow Morphling to easily chase down Clinkz.
* Clinkz's low health pool also makes him vulnerable to Morphling's magical nukes, especially his 
Ethereal Blade and 
Adaptive Strike combo.
Clinkz
* 
Untouchable prevents Clinkz from harassing Enchantress in lane by lowering his attack speed.
* 
Nature's Attendants helps Enchantress to sustain through Clinkz's harassment in lane.
Ogre Magi
* 
Arc Warden's 
Tempest Double is helpful for killing Ogre Magi who lacks AoE damage and disables.
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.
Clinkz
* Heroes who build mana boosting items but have low mana regeneration are especially vulnerable against Mana Break and Mana Void: 
Timbersaw, 
Slark, 
Shadow Fiend, 
Clinkz, 
Bristleback 
Nyx Assassin, 
Magnus
Ogre Magi
* Ogre Magi only deals magical damage, which Anti-Mage is exceptionally resistant due to Counterspell.
* Anti-Mage dispels 
Ignite with 
Manta Style.
* Ogre Magi has a very large mana pool which means Anti-Mage can do large amounts of damage to him with Mana Break and Mana Void.
Additional:
* Anti-Mage can kite Ogre Magi who has low mobility by 
Blink and his intelligence gain and build making 
Mana Void deal more damage.
* 
Counterspell well timed makes harass Fireblast and Ignite.
Clinkz
* Anti-Mage's Counterspell provides no protection against Clinkz's physical damage output.
* Clinkz can easily rush an 
Orchid Malevolence to prevent Blinking, although Anti-Mage can easily dispel it via Manta Style.
* Clinkz does heavy damage to towers, and can take map control away from Anti-Mage to limit the space he has to farm early game. If Clinkz is ahead he is capable of ending the game before Anti-Mage becomes a threat. He can also match Anti-Mage's ability to split push.
Clinkz
* Heroes with high armor like 
Dragon Knight, or with abilities to cause attacks to miss like 
Phantom Assassin, 
Riki and 
Tinker will be hard to deal with, as Clinkz relies almost entirely on physical attacks.
Additional:
* Smoke Cloud prevents the use of 
Death Pact, Searing Arrows and Skeleton Walk, so Clinkz can neither defend himself against Riki nor fight back effectively.
* It's hard to gank Riki as Clinkz has to find him first.
Clinkz
* Sand King is a strong ganker, allowing him to shut down squishy heroes in the early game: Phantom Assassin, Clinkz, 
Sniper, 
Enchantress.
Clinkz
* Heroes with high armor like Dragon Knight, or with abilities to cause attacks to miss like Phantom Assassin, Riki and Tinker will be hard to deal with, as Clinkz relies almost entirely on physical attacks.
Clinkz
* Low-health, normally mobile carries who rely entirely on raw attack damage are vulnerable to Bane's nukes and disables: 
Anti-Mage, Clinkz, 
Drow Ranger, 
Faceless Void, 
Gyrocopter, Juggernaut, 
Meepo, 
Mirana, 
Monkey King, 
Morphling, Phantom Assassin, 
Phantom Lancer, Riki, Shadow Fiend, Slark, Sniper, 
Terrorblade, 
Troll Warlord, 
Weaver.
Clinkz
* 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.
Clinkz
* Even though 
Linken's Sphere will block your silence, you can cast Arcane Bolt to break it or wait until someone on your team breaks it. In addition, Linken's Sphere builders are usually squishy targets vulnerable to silences: Weaver, 
Queen of Pain, Morphling, Clinkz, etc. Don't forget that Ancient Seal also increases the magical damage these enemies take, along with silencing them.
Clinkz
* Heroes who rely on invisibility, such as 
Bounty Hunter, Clinkz, Mirana, Nyx Assassin and Riki, as they will be revealed if caught by Chronosphere.
Clinkz
* Invisibility reliant heroes: Heroes with invisibility abilities or those that have invested into invisibility items are hindered by Bounty Hunter's Track. Few examples of such heroes are:Clinkz, Riki, 
Treant Protector, etc.
Additional:
* 
Track reveals Clinkz if he tries to escape with Skeleton Walk, allowing Bounty Hunter to gain lots of gold if he kills Clinkz.
* 
Jinada with physical damage items can quickly kill Clinkz due to his low health.
Clinkz
* 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.
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
* 
Puck silences Ogre Magi with 
Waning Rift, and 
Phase Shift makes Puck untargetable for the duration.
Clinkz
* 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.
Clinkz
* Heroes who rely on burst physical damage are affected by Lucky Shot's disarm: Terrorblade, 
Sven, Clinkz, 
Windranger, 
Alchemist, Dragon Knight, 
Legion Commander
Clinkz
* Heroes with high armor like Dragon Knight, or with abilities to cause attacks to miss like Phantom Assassin, Riki and Tinker will be hard to deal with, as Clinkz relies almost entirely on physical attacks.
Additional:
* The extra damage from Searing Arrows is largely blocked by Dragon Knight's armor.
* Clinkz has too low health to survive a gank.Getting stunned keeps him down long enough for a reaction.
* Breathe Fire reduces his damage,as it is physical.
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.
Clinkz
* Heroes who can take advantage of Oracle's low mobility or catch him out of position, such as Clinkz and Anti-Mage, can easily pick him off.
Clinkz
* Spectre can instantly escape Burning Army or hunt Clinkz with 
Haunt.
* Spectre can catch up to him with 
Spectral Dagger, even if he uses Skeleton Walk.
* 
Desolate allows Spectre to hit Clinkz through Skeleton Walk.
* 
Dispersion makes Spectre tanky and also reflects some damage back to Clinkz.
Additional:
* Spectre can catch Clinkz with Spectral Dagger, even if he uses Skeleton Walk.
* Spectre can instantly reach a ratting Clinkz with Haunt.
* Desolate's damage will melt him quickly, as he's alone most of the time.
Clinkz
* Heroes with good escapes can usually outmaneuver and escape from Spectre: Slark, Clinkz, Weaver
Ogre Magi
* 
Heavenly Grace reduces Fireblast stun time and dispels Ignite.
* 
Purification can heal damaged heroes if needed.
Clinkz
* Heroes who can harass Omniknight out of lane will keep him weak in the mid game: 
Viper, Venomancer, Clinkz.
Clinkz
* Possibly Clinkz's worst enemy. He has many tools to utterly destroy Clinkz.
* 
Charge of Darkness can be used on Clinkz if Spirit Breaker's team spots him anywhere. This charge will track his location through Skeleton Walk's invisibility and movement speed bonuses.
* When Spirit Breaker charges onto Clinkz, he can easily use 
Dust of Appearance to guarantee a reveal on him while stunned.
* All three of Spirit Breaker's spells help him and his team quickly close the gap to Clinkz even at the edge of his attack range or when running away with Skeleton Walk.
* Spirit Breaker's high strength and above average armor makes him able to endure Clinkz's onslaught, meanwhile Clinkz will be heavily threatened if Spirit Breaker procs a 
Greater Bash.
Additional:
* Once caught with dust, Clinkz could be locked down for a long time by Spirit Breaker and has nowhere to escape.
* Charge of Darkness provides shared vision over its target, showing Clinkz even when he is in Skeleton Walk.
Ogre Magi
* Heroes that can cancel Charge of Darkness: Ogre Magi, 
Earthshaker, 
Lion, 
Rubick, 
Luna.
Clinkz
* Nature's Prophet is often by himself. Clinkz can use invisibility to hunt him down and kill him, although a Quelling Blade may be needed to cut through his 
Sprout. Orchid Malevolence may also be needed if 3-4 seconds are not enough time to kill him, as he can teleport away.
* Clinkz can match Nature's Prophet's ability to split push.
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.
Clinkz
* Burning Barrage and 
Tar Bomb allow Clinkz to quickly kill Io due to its low armor.
* Clinkz iz a hero that very often goes for Orchid Malevolence, and its upgrade 
Bloodthorn. Alternatively, Clinkz also loves to buy 
Gleipnir. And if Clinkz has both of them, he will be able to root and silence Io and prevent him from escaping with either 
Tether or 
Relocate.
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.
Clinkz
* Heroes with invisibility and high mobility can jump on and focus down Earthshaker before he has a chance to initiate: Clinkz, Slark, 
Storm Spirit
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.
Clinkz
* Ember Spirit's 
Flame Guard provides no protection against Clinkz's physical damage output.
* Ember Spirit's low armor and health make him easy to kill quickly if a teammate can hold him down.
* If Clinkz has farmed an item that can disable, he can sneak up to and hunt down Ember Spirit while he farms or split pushes alone.
Clinkz
* Considering Rubick's abysmal armor, Rubick is a squishy target for Clinkz to gank on his own.
* None of his spells are useful except for Skeleton Walk.
* Clinkz usually builds Orchid Malevolence, which disables Rubick's ability to retaliate.
* Vast numbers of 
Sentry Wards are needed to deal with Clinkz because of Skeleton Walk, making it harder for Rubick to buy more expensive and more useful support items like 
Glimmer Cape or 
Mekansm.
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.
Clinkz
* Despite Clinkz's fragility, his harassment in the early game can be devastating; as he can kite Enigma and his Eidolons and claim their bounty with Burning Barrage and Tar Bomb.
* Clinkz often goes for a disabling item like Bloodthorn or Gleipnir, which allows him to cancel Enigma's 
Black Hole until Enigma gets Black King Bar. Gleipnir can also root Enigma, preventing him from using Blink Dagger to escape from Clinkz.
* Even with Black King Bar, Clinkz can still easily kill Enigma as all of his abilities ingore spell immunity, and Enigma is a very easy target for Burning Barrage, which means Clinkz can solo Enigma at any stage of the game unless Clinkz is caught in Black Hole.
Clinkz
* Searing Arrows makes Clinkz one of the hardest heroes for Clockwerk to lane against.
Clinkz
* Clinkz's item build often counters Hoodwink, including Black King Bar, 
Monkey King Bar, 
Heaven's Halberd, and 
Scythe of Vyse.
* Skeleton Walk can quickly escape Hoodwink abilities.
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.
Clinkz
* Huskar's 
Berserker's Blood provides no protection against Clinkz's physical damage output.
* Huskar has no way to disrupt Clinkz's attacks and no way to kill Clinkz alone, as Clinkz can easily go invisible, teleport away, or even fight back.
* Clinkz will often build the items that counter Huskar and the items he usually builds. These include Black King Bar or Monkey King Bar for Heaven's Halberd, or a disable item like Scythe of Vyse or Bloodthorn to prevent him from using 
Inner Fire to disarm.
Clinkz
* Clinkz's high damage output and insane attack speed late-game can take Kunkka out of the fight before it begins.
* Burning Barrage and Searing Arrows together can kill allies easily even under Ghostship's buff.
* Skeleton Walk can allow Clinkz to make a quick escape after Kunkka's combo, or even avoid it all together.
Clinkz
* Clinkz's Skeleton Walk allows him to easily sneak on Chen and bypass his creeps. It also allows him to escape from them.
* Clinkz can easily kill Chen's creeps with Death Pact and gain gold, health, damage and abilities from them when upgraded with Death Pact Steal creep abilities talent.
* Clinkz naturally loves buying Gleipnir, which allows him to easily root Chen and his creeps and to kill them more easily with Burning Barrage from Aghanim's Shard.
* Clinkz can kill Chen or any of his allies with his physical damage burst from 
Strafe, Tar Bomb and Burning Barrage from Aghanim's Shard before he can use Hand of God. Especially when Clinkz has Gleipnir and 
Daedalus. Clinkz can also buy Bloodthorn to prevent Chen from even trying to use Hand of God.
Clinkz
* Due to Tiny's non-existent agility gain, high physical damage heroes are more effective against him (Clinkz, Templar Assassin, Ursa, 
Wraith King etc).
Clinkz
* 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.
Clinkz
* Heroes that can pick you off: Clinkz, Nyx Assassin, Puck, Riki.
Clinkz
* Heroes with a high degree of mobility and invisibility are hard to catch with Meat Hook: 
Ember Spirit, Riki, Clinkz, Queen of Pain.
Clinkz
* Invisible heroes all have the element of surprise. Provided they deal enough damage, Sniper should be vanquished very quickly: Clinkz, Riki, Bounty Hunter.
Clinkz
* 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.
Clinkz
* Clinkz can use Burning Army in teamfights which will cause a problem for Alchemist.
Ogre Magi
* Side lanes with disables will greatly reduce the likeliness Void Spirit will be willing to rotate: Sven, 
Tiny, Wraith King, Ogre Magi.
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.
Clinkz
* Any hero with high attack speed will be a threat to Phoenix when it initiates, as they can easily tear down a 
Supernova, perhaps even while debuffed by Fire Spirits: Juggernaut, Clinkz, Troll Warlord, 
Beastmaster, 
Lina.
Clinkz
* Ancient Apparition has no escape or reliable control and is very fragile, which makes him an easy target for anyone who can get on top of him, like Phantom Assassin or Clinkz.
Clinkz
* 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.
Clinkz
* Any hero that can outrange Plague Ward can neutralize them without putting themselves at risk of receiving Poison Sting: Arc Warden, 
Chen, Clinkz, Drow Ranger, Lina, Mirana, 
Nature's Prophet, 
Pugna and Sniper.
* Special mention to heroes that outrange Plague Ward after obtaining talents that increase attack range.
Clinkz
* Heroes who cannot fight back during Arena of Blood in the early and mid game: 
Abaddon, Anti-Mage, 
Broodmother, Luna, Sniper, Troll Warlord, Weaver, Clinkz.
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.
Clinkz
* Fragile carries with no reliable escaping mechanism can be bursted down in no time: Sniper, Drow Ranger, Clinkz
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.
Clinkz
* Heroes with high armor like Dragon Knight, or with abilities to cause attacks to miss like Phantom Assassin, Riki and Tinker will be hard to deal with, as Clinkz relies almost entirely on physical attacks.
Clinkz
* 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.
Clinkz
* Frostbite will reveal invisible heroes for its duration, making it a good tool against any such hero (Riki, Bounty Hunter, Weaver, or Clinkz for example), or as a soft counter to 
Shadow Blade, if it is used first. This can be an amazing tool to ensure that Dust of Appearance is used on the unit in question, and not wasted in not catching anything.
Clinkz
* Heroes who can easily harass Crystal Maiden out of lane in the early game (Clinkz, Viper) can prevent Crystal Maiden from being able to level effectively, and can ultimately slow down her level 6, 12, and 18 to a point where enemy carries already have items to address her ultimate.
Clinkz
* Heroes who rely on physical damage output to be effective will fare badly against Muerta's 
Pierce the Veil: Phantom Assassin, Terrorblade, Drow Ranger, 
Lifestealer, Anti-Mage, Alchemist, 
Lycan, Clinkz, Sniper.
Ogre Magi
* Heroes that commonly attack ethereal units will not have any problems against Muerta's Pierce The Veil: Tinker, 
Jakiro, Lina, Luna, Pugna or Ogre Magi.
Ogre Magi
* 
Nethertoxin breaks Multicast.
* 
Corrosive Skin minimizes the damage from Ignite and Fireblast.
Clinkz
* Clinkz does not have any passive abilities at all, making Nethertoxin nearly useless.
* Viper's Corrosive Skin provides no protection against Clinkz's physical damage output.
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.
Clinkz
* Clinkz relies heavily on the physical damage provided by Burning Barrage and Searing Arrows, which completely overrides the capabilities of Rage.
* Lifestealer's lack of disables will struggle to pin Clinkz down while in Skeleton Walk, and can allow Clinkz to kite him.
Clinkz
*
Scorched Earth deals damage to Clinkz during Skeleton Walk.
Doom shuts down Clinkz entirely, as it prevents him from casting any of his spells and contributing a large amount of damage in teamfights.
*
Ogre Magi
*
Doom makes Ogre Magi less disruptive. 
Infernal Blade effectively negates Ogre Magi's durability.
Aghanim's Scepter, he can disable Multicast.
*
* With
