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.
Alchemist
* Axe can force Alchemist to attack him with 
Berserker's Call. High attack speed from 
Chemical Rage will cause 
Counter Helix to proc multiple times.
* This can get worse if axe has 
Blade Mail, which then returns all damage to Alchemist himself.
* Axe's abilities can pierce through 
Black King Bar, which is a common item for Alchemist.
* Berserker's Call grants Axe a huge bonus armor, which greatly counters Alchemist's physical damage for the most part.
Dazzle
* Some heroes with extreme range, like 
Zeus, 
Invoker or 
Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Alchemist
* 
Quas-
Exort Invoker can win the mid lane easily against Alchemist because Quas regeneration will nullify Acid Spray's damage over time and Exort damage bonus will allow Invoker to out last hit Alchemist.
Dazzle
* Pugna can turn out to be an effective hero against Dazzle due to the fact that he does not allow him to extend his 
Poison Touch with his 
Decrepify, which is why Dazzle cannot keep the enemy under prolonged deceleration.
* Pugna has a very strong ability against casters with a small health reserve - 
Nether Ward, which is why heroes like Dazzle will not be able to constantly throw their Poison Touch 
Bad Juju and 
Shadow Wave at enemies under the action of Nether Ward or will be forced to take a lot of damage

Alchemist
* 
Pugna's Decrepify makes sure that either Alchemist is unable to hit anyone while also being slowed and susceptible to magical damage, or can protect an ally from physical attacks. Besides, Pugna can push early on, when Alchemist is not strong enough to repel it, so by the time Alchemist comes online, he might be forced to sit in base.
Alchemist
* 
Feast is good against high health strength heroes such as Alchemist.
* 
Rage allows Lifestealer to not be targetable by Unstable Concoction, possibly making Alchemist stun himself.
* Since Lifestealer build 
Aghanim's Scepter upgrades 
Infest similliar 
Heaven's Halberd can applies an undispellable disarm so Alchemist cannot attack during Chemical Rage, forcing him to activate Black King Bar beforehand.
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.
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.
Alchemist
* Chemical Rage will rarely save Alchemist against Ursa's 
Fury Swipes.
* 
Enrage allows Ursa to both be a threat to Alchemist and avoid his over time damage.
Alchemist
* 
Corrosive Haze followed by 
Slithereen Crush takes advantage of Alchemist's main weakness, being physical damage before he has the change to improve his surviability with items.
* 
Bash of the Deep will deal lots of damage during the laning phase.
Alchemist
* Ember's magic damage build is able to burst down Alchemist due to his low strength gain and Alchemist's normal item pick up.
Alchemist
* Alchemist's reliance on fast attack speed to do single-target damage makes him vulnerable to 
Static Link. It also goes through Black King Bar, which is a standard item on Alchemist.
* 
Eye of the Storm is great against high health strength heroes as it reduces their survivability to physical damage.
* Razor has early lane push to counter 
Acid Spray.
Alchemist
* Alchemist is a well-known 
Radiance carrier among other auras your illusions will benefit from. They also get the extra move speed and reduced base attack time from his Chemical Rage, and it's even better if you can catch him as his own rage is about to expire.
* Disruption will buy enough time for all allies to retreat when Alchemist starts to activate 
Unstable Concoction.
Alchemist
* Skywrath Mage can easily harass Alchemist in the laning phase with multiple Arcane Bolts. Additionally, if Alchemist is in the process of throwing an Unstable Concoction, and has no way to dispel Ancient Seal, the self stun becomes an easy set up for Mystic Flare.
* Caution, however, as a decently farmed Alchemist with {Item ID:Radiance} and {Item ID:Manta Style} can easily send illusions to harass and force Skywrath Mage out.
Alchemist
* 
Tidebringer will deal lots of damage to Alchemist before he builds physical survivability items.
* 
Torrent and 
X Marks the Spot can control Alchemist at all stages of the game before he has Black King Bar.
* 
Ghostship's rum buff will greatly reduce the Alchemist's damage output in teamfights including his Radiance.
Dazzle
* Doom can completely shut down Dazzle through 
Doom, as it prevents him from casting his abilities and, by extension, gaining Bad Juju stacks.
Alchemist
* Doom can disable Chemical Rage's increased healing, rendering Alchemist helpless against Doom.
* Attacks from 
Infernal Blade can deal serious damage to Alchemist as it deals damage based on the hero's maximum health.
Alchemist
* Doom's low armor makes him weak against Alchemist's high physical damage output.
Alchemist
* 
Untouchable greatly reduces Chemical Rage's attack speed advantage.
Dazzle
* Some heroes with extreme range, like Zeus, Invoker or Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Alchemist
* Melee heroes that get kited easily have hard times dealing with Puck without any lockdowns, as Puck is one of the most mobile heroes. Heroes like 
Sven, 
Lifestealer, 
Ursa and 
Alchemist may have problems to get to Puck without proper initiation items. They also lack reliable lockdowns, as their disables are easily avoidable for Puck, or are just a soft disable.
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.)
Alchemist
* Heroes who struggle to fight back against Sven at any point in the game are at a severe disadvantage: Alchemist, 
Anti-Mage, 
Crystal Maiden.
Alchemist
* 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.
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).
Alchemist
* Heroes who rely on burst physical damage are affected by Lucky Shot's disarm: Terrorblade, Sven, Clinkz, 
Windranger, Alchemist, 
Dragon Knight, 
Legion Commander
Alchemist
* Heroes who are melee but cannot fight back against Eclipse will really struggle with Luna: 
Monkey King, Alchemist, 
Timbersaw.
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.)
Additional:
* Laguna Blade can kill Dazzle quickly before he casts Shallow Grave.
Dazzle
* Although 
Counterspell's passive component doesn't protect Anti-Mage from the physical damage nukes from Poison Touch and Shadow Wave, a well-timed use of it will reflect Poison Touch back to Dazzle, slowing him in the process.
* This can be even more dangerous if Dazzle has an 
Aghanim's Shard, as Counterspell will reflect the hex back to Dazzle.
* 
Mana Break drains mana, which can be a problem for Dazzle, as all of his abilities have a high mana cost. This makes him especially vulnerable to 
Mana Void.
Dazzle
* Heroes who rely on magical damage resistance may have a hard time laning against Dazzle as all of Dazzle's abilities deal physical damage instead of magical: Anti-Mage, 
Huskar, 
Viper.
Alchemist
* 
Shadow Dance allows Slark to not be targeted by Unstable Concoction, making Alchemist stun himself and making himself vulnerable to the enemy.
* 
Dark Pact also allows him to just purge off the stun if timed correctly.
* 
Essence Shift will steal stats over long durations at a time should Alchemist lack the damage to kill Slark.
Dazzle
* Heroes that can deny Slark early kills will prevent him from snowballing: Dazzle, 
Abaddon.
Alchemist
* Alchemist has very bad armor and does not build armor items for the large majority of his build, so Jingu Mastery and Wukong's Command can be very deadly.
* 
Desolator, 
Sange and Yasha or 
Diffusal Blade can all be purchased to increase your damage against Alchemist or just to keep your movement speed high enough to match him while Chemical Rage is active.
* Monkey King is an agility hero and scales with armor, so Acid Spray loses it's effectiveness later in the game.
Alchemist
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: 
Necrophos, 
Phoenix, Alchemist, 
Earthshaker, 
Razor, 
Tinker, 
Leshrac, 
Queen of Pain
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.
Dazzle
* Hex abilities prevent attacking, ability and item usage, which is a severe problem for Phantom Assassin as it prevents her from using Black King Bar, the one item that helps protect her against the aforementioned dangers. 
Doom and 
Shadow Demon with Aghanim's Scepter also disables Phantom Assassin's Evasion and Critical Strike, removing much of her damage and survivabaility: Doom, 
Disruptor with Aghanim's Scepter, Dazzle with Aghanim's Shard
Dazzle
* 
Juxtapose and 
Doppelganger conjures too many illusions for Dazzle to deal with, given he has no inherent movement- or AoE-abilities.
* However, this can be partially solved with Aghanim's Shard-upgraded Poison Touch, as the hex instantly destroys illusions in an area as well as revealing the real Phantom Lancer when he's hiding among his army of illusions.
* 
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 physical damage based spells in lane.
* Diffusal Blade, a core item on Phantom Lancer, drains mana, which can be a problem for Dazzle, as all of his abilities have a high mana cost.
Alchemist
* Heroes that require burst damage to kill will be difficult for Phantom Lancer to take down: Timbersaw, 
Axe, 
Bristleback, Alchemist and 
Underlord
Dazzle
* Poison Touch severely slows down Chen, deals damage over time and weakens his armor every time he gets attacked by Dazzle or any of his allies. Aghanim's Shard upgraded Poison Touch can hex Chen and prevent him from saving his allies with 
Hand of God.
* Neither Chen nor his converted creeps have burst damage at all, so Dazzle will always have plenty of time to save his allies with Shallow Grave.
* Dazzle can use Shadow Wave can heal his allies, kill Chen's creeps and damage Chen himself.
* Bad Juju can weaken Chen's armor, and the armor of his creeps every time Dazzle casts a spell while strengthening armor of Dazzle's allies.
Alchemist
* Alchemist's Acid Spray can heavily damage Chen's creeps and disrupt his jungling.
* Alchemist builds items like Radiance and 
Battle Fury, allowing him to quickly clear Chen's creeps.
* Alchemist's 
Greevil's Greed will grant him more bonus gold as he kills Chen's creeps.
Dazzle
* Heroes who rely on magical damage resistance may have a hard time laning against Dazzle as all of Dazzle's abilities deal physical damage instead of magical: Anti-Mage, Huskar, Viper.
Alchemist
* Chemical Rage mitigates damage from 
Burning Spear.
Additional:
* Chemical Rage negates almost all damage from Burning Spears.
Dazzle
* Heroes that can slow Charge of Darkness by a huge amount: 
Venomancer, Viper, Dazzle, 
Arc Warden, Lion, Huskar, Shadow Shaman, 
Visage, 
Undying, 
Jakiro.
Alchemist
* Heroes that can cancel Charge of Darkness: 
Ogre Magi, Earthshaker, Lion, 
Rubick, Lina, 
Luna, Jakiro, 
Dawnbreaker, Alchemist, Ogre Magi, Axe, Shadow Shaman, 
Naga Siren, 
Mars, 
Bane, 
Pudge, Clockwerk.
Dazzle
* Aghanim's Shard upgraded Poison Touch can be used to easily kill many of Terrorblade's illusions from both 
Conjure Image and 
Manta Style, it can also hex the real Terrorblade, silencing him, disarming him, slowing him, muting him and rendering him unable to do anything at all.
* Shallow Grave can be used to save an ally whom Terrorblade has used 
Sunder on under the condition Dazzle is quick enough to do it. And since Terrorblade has no "real" burst damage potential outside from Sunder, Dazzle will usually have plenty of time to save an allied hero on which Sunder was used.
* Shadow Wave will always damage Terrorblade and his illusions whenever Terrorblade has no 
Metamorphosis available to use, while healing Dazzle's allies. Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Shadow Wave can also be used directly on Terrorblade, and bounce on both Terrorblade and his illusions alike, causing them to take damage and to be attacked by Dazzle. Shadow Wave can also pierce throught debuff immunity by Black King Bar, one of the items Terrorblade relies on to survive in teamfights.
* Bad Juju can weaken Terrorblade's armor every time Dazzle casts a spell while strengthening armor of Dazzle's allies.

* Bad Juju can weaken Terrorblade's armor every time Dazzle casts a spell while strengthening armor of Dazzle's allies.
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.
Alchemist
* Magnus has very mediocre damage against Alchemist, because he can survive the stun duration of Reverse Polarity with Chemical Rage.
Dazzle
* Shallow Grave can prevent the death of an ally that is trapped inside the Chronosphere.
* Shadow Wave lets Dazzle heal allies and damage enemies from outside Chronosphere.
Alchemist
* Chemical Rage kills Phoenix very quickly in 
Supernova.
Dazzle
* Poison Touch allows Dazzle to harass both, Io and it's tethered target on lane. Aghanim's Shard upgraded Poison Touch can also hex both, Io and it's tethered target, preventing them from escaping with Relocate, and also disarming them, silencing them, muting them and rendering them helpless against Dazzle and his allies.
* Io's damage output is one of the weakest, therefore Dazzle will have plenty of time to save an ally with Shallow Grave from gank by Io and it's tethered target.
* Shadow Wave will always hit both, Io and it's tethered target if they are near the ally Dazzle uses Shadow Wave on, while healing Dazzle's allies near them. Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Shadow Wave can bounce on both, Io and it's tethered target, causing them both to take damage and to be attacked by Dazzle. And unlike Io who doesn't get healed while using Tether, Shadow Wave will always heal Dazzle no matter on which of his allies he uses it on.
* Bad Juju will cause both, Io and it's tethered target to lose armor every time Dazzle casts a spell while strengthening armor of Dazzle's allies.
Additional:
* Poison Touch allows Dazzle to harass both, Io and it's 
Tethered target on lane. Aghanim's Shard upgraded Poison Touch can also hex both, Io and it's Tethered target, preventing them from escaping with Relocate, and also disarming them, silencing them, muting them and rendering them helpless against Dazzle and his allies.

Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Shadow Wave allows Dazzle Shadow Wave directly on Io and it's Tethered target which can also bounce on both, Io and it's tethered target, causing them both to take damage and to be attacked by Dazzle. And unlike Io who doesn't get healed while using Tether, Shadow Wave will always heal Dazzle no matter on which of his allies he uses it on.
* Bad Juju will cause both, Io and it's tethered target to lose armor every time Dazzle casts a spell while strengthening armor of Dazzle's allies.
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.
Alchemist
* Chemical Rage will take down 
Tombstone in no time.
Additional:
* With Greevil's Greed, Alchemist can farm Tombstone zombies and gain a significant gold advantage.
Dazzle
* Shadow Wave provides good sustain against Tinker's spammable abilities.
* Shallow Grave can stop Tinker from bursting down a target.
Dazzle
* Heroes that can save their allies can be a big problem for Mars: Dazzle, 
Omniknight.
Dazzle
* Once he buys Aghanim's Shard, Dazzle's Poison Touch can hex enemies, and hex can instantly kill illusions, making Dazzle strong against heroes who rely on illusions. Bear in mind that 
Chaos Knight is the exception because his 
Phantasms are strong illusions that are immune to abilities that can instantly kill illusions.
Alchemist
* He can quickly take out heroes with low armor (
Tiny) with his great physical damage.
Dazzle
* Hex abilities can cancel the channelling of Fiend's Grip : Lion, Shadow Shaman, Dazzle from Aghanim's Shard with upgraded Poison Touch.
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.
Alchemist
* Sprout is good for trapping melee carries with no escape abilities: Sven, Alchemist, Lifestealer etc.
Alchemist
* Acid Spray and Greevil's Greed will quickly destroy pushes with treants.
* Because of his poor movement speed,Alchemist can catch up and kill him with Chemical Rage.
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.
Dazzle
* Some heroes with extreme range, like Zeus, Invoker or Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Dazzle
* Aghanim's Shard upgraded Poison Touch can be used to hex Clockwerk, silencing him, disarming him, slowing him, and muting him, and thus rendering him unable to use Blade Mail to return damage or to do anything at all.
* Shadow Wave will hit Clockwerk every time when he's fighting with an enemy inside Power Cogs.
* Due to Clockwerk's very low damage output, Dazzle will have more than enough time to Shallow Grave any enemy hero 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.
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.
Alchemist
* Alchemist can easily farm Spiderlings with Acid Spray and Greevil's Greed.
* Alchemist's Chemical Rage nullifies Broodmother's 
Insatiable Hunger
Additional:
* Greevil's Greed makes Broodmother’s spiderlings far more valuable to Alchemist making it important that he does farm them as opposed to other heroes where the spider's bounties are negligible.
* Acid Spray makes it difficult to attack Alchemist in lane without losing some spiderlings to the damage over time, potentially giving him farm he wouldn't have otherwise.
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.
Dazzle
* Dazzle can instantly destroy all of Naga Siren's illusions from Mirror Image with Aghanim's Shard upgraded Poison Touch used on her or any of her illusions.
Alchemist
* Viper can bully Alchemist out of mid lane quite easily, forcing him to either retreat into jungle, or stay harassed in lane, and get very few last hits. Vipers break also completely disables Greevil's greed which prevents Alchemist to earn his amazing amounts of money.
Dazzle
* Heroes who rely on magical damage resistance may have a hard time laning against Dazzle as all of Dazzle's abilities deal physical damage instead of magical: Anti-Mage, Huskar, Viper.
Alchemist
* Heroes who are entirely reliant on dealing physical damage and/or have very little to no area-of-effect abilities will make Underlord tickle and will have no effect against him thanks to his 
Atrophy Aura, and will also be unable to ambush Underlord and his team if Underlord chooses to use 
Fiend's Gate to get to a designated point of the map: Phantom Assassin, Terrorblade, 
Troll Warlord, Drow Ranger, 
Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Sven, 
Wraith King, 
Bounty Hunter, Alchemist, 
Templar Assassin, 
Nyx Assassin, Bane.

Alchemist
* 
Reaper's Scythe can kill Alchemist before Chemical Rage has the time to heal him.
* 
Ghost Shroud can prevent Alchemist from attacking Necrophos, as well as make him immune to Acid Spray and Unstable Concoction damage.
* 
Heartstopper Aura will do damage as long as Necrophos is alive based on health percentage, which is a problem for a strength hero such as Alchemist.
Dazzle
* Reaper's Scythe is very predictable and gives Dazzle plenty of time to react with Shallow Grave: Dazzle just has to keep a close eye on his allies below 50% health.
* However, Dazzle must be sure to use Shadow Wave on that ally immediately after, or they will die from Heartstopper Aura when the Shallow Grave ends!
Additional:
* 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's abilities, especially Reaper's Scythe.
* However, bear in mind that Dazzle's Poison Touch, Shadow Wave and Bad Juju all deal physical damage, and Dazzle has no abilities to help him deal magical damage at all, which can cause problems for Dazzle to kill Necrophos if he uses Ghost Shroud to protect himself.
Alchemist
* Clinkz can use 
Burning Army in teamfights which will cause a problem for Alchemist.
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.
Alchemist
* Alchemist likes to farm fast and be ahead, unfortunately Lone Druid likes to do the same by taking towers.
* Acid Spray will never prove a threat to Lone Druid or his Spirit Bear.
* Chemical Rage may not prove so useful once Lone Druid procs entangled keeping him in place.
* 
Monkey King Bar is a very good choice on Lone Druid's Spirit Bear and it directly counters any potential Radiance from Alchemist.
* 
Assault Cuirass is another very good Spirit Bear item that further makes Alchemist vulnerable to physical damage, which is all Lone Druid does.
* Alchemist is not the kind of hero who wants to go on single target summon units, by the time he has killed the Spirit Bear his teammates might had already been slayed by his teammates. Not to mention Lone Druid can just resummon it, even if he is successful.
Dazzle
* Dazzle easily breaks the position of Lone Druid and his 
Summon Spirit Bear with his Poison Touch, As it always hits from afar and prolongs the slowdown on the Summon Spirit Bear, which is why he cannot catch up with Dazzle and treat his master with 
Spirit Link
* Dazzle helps his team survive the physical attacks of the Summon Spirit Bear thanks to the treatment from Shadow Wave and armor from Bad Juju, which can enable his team to kill Lone Druid
* The Lone Druid Summon Spirit Bear has a small amount of armor at the start of the game, because of Mid Dazzle, it can very much break through it and prevent Lone Druid from gaining an advantage at the very beginning of the game, giving his team the opportunity to overtake Lone Druid on items for killing him, by type: 
Spirit Vessel

* Visage can quickly kill heroes with low to medium base armor and no innate escape mechanism. Examples include Alchemist, Crystal Maiden and Zeus.
Dazzle
* Heroes with armor reducing abilities greatly hinder Visage's defense like 
Slardar and Dazzle.
Dazzle
*
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.
Ice Blast negates healing from Shadow Wave, and lasts longer than Shallow Grave.
Additional:
*
Alchemist
*
Ice Blast cancels out Chemical Rage's rapid health regeneration. It can also take advantage of Alchemist's 
Armlet of Mordiggian toggling, as it will make HP drain insanely fast, essentially killing the bearer in no time.
Chemical Rage, which Alchemist greatly relies on to stay alive in battle.
Armlet of Mordiggian which can be deadly during Ice Blast.
Additional:
* Ice Blast nullifies the health regeneration granted by
