Huskar, 
Venomancer, or 
Phoenix.
Additional:
* Huskar's damage over time gives Abaddon the opportunity to shield and heal his allies.
* 
Borrowed Time also makes Abaddon a hard support to gank, thus negating Huskar's early game dominance.
Death Prophet

Duel is a great initiation to kill Death Prophet before she can cast Exorcism. Furthermore, Legion Commander often builds 
Blade Mail and can reflect Exorcism's damage to kill Death Prophet easily.
Huskar
* Carries that can out damage Huskar will do well against him: 
Legion Commander, 
Faceless Void, 
Troll Warlord, 
Phantom Assassin.
Additional:

Lina, 
Lion, 
Puck, 
Morphling.

Death Prophet

Doom can stop Death Prophet from casting spells, which makes her useless during team fights if she didn't cast Exorcism before the fight, and also nullifies healing from Exorcism and Spirit Syphon. Furthermore, Doom can use 
Scorched Earth to chase after her.
Huskar

Enchantress, Huskar, 
Underlord.
Death Prophet
* Heroes that can kill Death Prophet with nukes can prevent her from using Exorcism to its full duration or using it at all: Lina, Lion, Puck, Morphling.

Skywrath Mage
Huskar

Rupture's damage.
* A self applied 
Bloodrage together with Blademail means it's almost suicidal for Huskar to jump on Bloodseeker with Life Break
Death Prophet
* 
Guardian Angel nullifies the physical damage from Exorcism during teamfights. And when upgraded with 
Aghanim's Scepter, it also prevents Death Prophet from pushing towers. However, Death Prophet can partially counter this issue with 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity, a common item on Death Prophet.
* 
Heavenly Grace dispels 
Silence.
Additional:
* Exorcism's damage is blocked by Guardian Angel.
* Heavenly Grace can dispel Silence allies if Omniknight is able to cast it.
Huskar
* Jumping on Ursa with Life Break is often suicide for Huskar, as he will be immediately bursted down with 
Fury Swipes.
Additional:
* Huskar likes fights with a long duration and is usually at low health, making him vulnerable against Ursa's physical damage.
* Jumping in with Life Break against Ursa is suicide, as Enrage, Overpower, and Fury Swipes will easily shred Huskar.
Huskar
* His 
Poison Attack is very useful against Huskar, since he tends to stay at low health.
* 
Nethertoxin disables passive skills like Berserker's Blood.
* It is dangerous for Huskar to jump on Viper because 
Corrosive Skin and 
Viper Strike with the slowdown of movement and attack speed which usually will be deadly for Huskar.
Additional:
* Viper Strike can disable 
Berserker's Blood, which Huskar relies upon for attack speed and healing.
* The damage from Burning Spear and Life Break is largely absorbed by Corrosive Skin. It also will return some damage, making it risky to use Burning Spears in the laning stage.
* Because Huskar wants to be on low health for Berserker's Blood, he is particularly vulnerable to Poison Attack.
Huskar
* Shadow Demon's 
Shadow Poison can quickly stack to the point where Huskars generally low health is easily finished off.
* Shadow Demon's 
Disruption can turn Huskar's high attack speed and regeneration against him, It also makes him an easy target for Shadow Poison,
* Shadow Demon commonly builds a 
Meteor Hammer, allowing him to land a heavy stun on Huskar
* Shadow Demon's upgraded 
Demonic Purge breaks Huskar, It also pierces Spell Immunity, Without his passive for 7 seconds Huskar quickly falls in battle
* However note that Shadow Demon is a squishy target and you can often overwhelm him if he is alone, But he can still Disrupt you to escape
Additional:
* Shadow Poison can quickly stack up on Huskar, And with his naturally low health you don't need as many stacks to be effective.
* Disruption turns Huskars high attack speed against him, They also have the highest survivability as illusions due to his passive Berserker's Blood, It also allows you to put Shadow Poison stacks on him,
* Dissimulate turns Huskar's burning damage against his team, You can cast it on an ally who is taking a bunch of Burning Spear stacks and cause Huskar to take high amounts of damage as well
* Scepter upgraded Demonic Purge is your most effective weapon against him, It's 7 second Break causes him to quickly die in battle
Huskar
* Chemical Rage mitigates damage from Burning Spear.
Additional:
* 
Chemical Rage negates almost all damage from Burning Spears.
Huskar
* Because Huskar tends to stay at low health to gain the maximum bonuses from Berserker's Blood, it makes him an exceptionally prime target for 
Reaper's Scythe.
Additional:
* Huskar is often at low health, making him easy prey for Reaper's Scythe.
* Ghost Shroud prevents Huskar from stacking Burning Spear, and if Heartstopper Aura stacks are active, can regenerate health lost to existing stacks.
Huskar
* 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.
Huskar
* 
Corrosive Haze and 
Bash of the Deep will make short work of Huskar's low armor, even if Slardar is alone.
Death Prophet
* 
Shadowraze (Near), 
Shadowraze (Medium), and 
Shadowraze (Far) can hit hard in the early stages of the game, and due to Shadow Fiend's high attack damage, most of Death Prophet's last hits will be denied in the laning phase. Additionally, 
Requiem of Souls can deal massive damage or kill Death Prophet at the start of team fights in combination with Eul's Scepter of Divinity or 
Shadow Blade.
Huskar
* Sniper just doesn't give Huskar a chance, as he always just keeps his opponents at a great distance. However, in such a game you will need to have a 
Concussive Grenade and a 
Hurricane Pike in order to avoid the Life Break of Huskar
Additional:

Huskar
* Huskar's low armor and movement speed make an easy target for Chaos Knight to initiate on with 
Reality Rift and 
Chaos Bolt.
* Other than Inner Fire, Huskar has no reliable area of effect ability to clear Phantasm illusions.
* Huskar likes to stay at low health to benefit from his Berserker's Blood, thus making him vulnerable to Chaos Knight's high burst physical damage.
Additional:
* Chaos Bolt can stun Huskar when he jump in with Life break, giving 4 seconds maximum for Chaos Knight to deliver a beatdown.
* Reality Rift further reduces Huskar's low armor, boosting Chaos Knight's damage even more.
* Berserker's Blood offer no protection against 
Chaos Strike, which deal physical damage.
* 
Phantasm can be used to dispel the disarm from Inner Fire.
* Although Huskar can use this to disarm the illusion instead, buying himself some times.
Huskar
* 
Mirror Image can cause Huskar to Life Break the wrong target.
* 
Rip Tide reduces Huskar's already low armor.
* 
Song of the Siren allows teams to recover from Huskar's initiation, as well as the damage over time from Burning Spears.
Huskar
* The damage from Burning Spear can be reduced by turning away from Huskar.
* Bristleback can bait Huskar into using Life Break on him, then turn around and receive very little damage.
Additional:
* Bristleback's tankiness and 
Bristleback allow him to outlast Burning Spears' damage-over-time at almost any point in the game. In addition, if Huskar chooses to cast Life Break on Bristleback, Bristleback can simply turn around before it hits and receive little damage.
* 
Viscous Nasal Goo will reduce Huskar's low armor even further, and 
Quill Spray and 
Warpath will tear him down extremely quickly.
Huskar
* Huskar’s low health play style put him at extreme risk to 
Sharpshooter's extreme damage. In addition, it breaks Berserker's Blood, nullifying Huskar's power source.
Huskar
* 
Untouchable makes it near impossible to stack Burning Spears.
* 
Impetus' pure damage puts an instant end to Huskar's low-health brinkmanship.
Death Prophet
* Heroes that depend on disrupting fights with ability combos or big ultimate abilities are vulnerable to the long stun of Fiend's Grip: 
Disruptor, 
Death Prophet, 
Enigma, Faceless Void, 
Invoker, 
Lich, 
Magnus, 
Mars, 
Medusa, 
Outworld Destroyer, Phoenix, Puck, 
Queen of Pain, 
Shadow Fiend, 
Treant Protector, Underlord, 
Winter Wyvern, 
Witch Doctor, 
Zeus.
Huskar
* Heroes with low armor and little mobility, like Huskar, 
Io, etc. will also have an unfortunate fate.
Huskar
* Heroes with abilities that reduce armor will make Huskar very vulnerable: 
Weaver, 
Dazzle, 
Bristleback, 
Vengeful Spirit.
Additional:
* Huskar struggles against heroes that output high physical damage due to his low armor. Vengeful Spirit's Wave of Terror and Vengeance Aura help increase the physical damage of her team.
Huskar
* Heroes with illusions can overwhelm Huskar: 
Phantom Lancer, 
Anti-Mage, 
Arc Warden, 
Chaos Knight.
Huskar
* Heroes who rely on basic attacks will suffer from Laser: Phantom Assassin, 
Wraith King, Huskar.
Death Prophet
* 
Riki is another good hero to shutdown Death Prophet with 
Diffusal Blade as his core item. His 
Smoke Screen stops her from initiating and casting spells.
Huskar
* Carries that can out damage Huskar will do well against him: Legion Commander, Faceless Void, Troll Warlord, Phantom Assassin.
Additional:
* Whirling Axes (Melee) provides a 60% miss chance, resulting in Huskar's attacks missing a lot of the time if it isn't dispelled.
* Troll Warlord's Fervor ramps up in a very similar way as Huskar's Berserker's Blood: as soon as Huskar has high enough health regeneration, Troll Warlord has a high enough attack speed to negate it.
Huskar
* Heroes with abilities that reduce armor will make Huskar very vulnerable: Weaver, Dazzle, Bristleback, Vengeful Spirit.
Death Prophet
* Heroes with strong team-fight abilities (especially ultimates) like 
Tidehunter, 
Brewmaster, Death Prophet, etc.
Huskar
* Heroes with illusions can overwhelm Huskar: Phantom Lancer, Anti-Mage, Arc Warden, Chaos Knight.
Huskar
* Carries that can out damage Huskar will do well against him: Legion Commander, Faceless Void, Troll Warlord, Phantom Assassin.
Huskar
* Mass Serpent Ward rips apart Huskar quickly due to his poor armor.
* As soon as Huskar jumps in, he will be vulnerable to Shadow Shaman's disables if he does not have Black King Bar.
Death Prophet
* With 4 active abilities, Shadow Shaman is weak against silencing foes such as 
Silencer, 
Drow Ranger and Death Prophet.
Huskar
* Huskar is often played at low health to maximize the bonuses from Berserker's Blood, and also because his abilities cost health to use. This makes him especially vulnerable to Culling Blade.
* Berserker's Blood gives Huskar no protection against the pure damage of Culling Blade. Its attack speed bonus also means that Counter Helix will proc more often.
* Axe's tankiness and base health regeneration makes it hard for Huskar to take him down with Burning Spears.
Additional:
* 
Berserker's Call and Blade Mail can be used immediately after Huskar jumps on Axe with Life Break.
* Huskar's high attack speed procs 
Counter Helix repeatedly.
* Huskar's health loss from using his abilities make him a frequent target for 
Culling Blade.
Death Prophet
* Because Exorcism's damage is not reduce by damage block abilities or items, Death Prophet can be very good against heroes who rely on armor to survive: 
Axe, 
Terrorblade, Morphling, 
Dragon Knight
Huskar
* Warlock Golems do plenty of physical and pure damage to bring down Huskar when he is at low health. Warlock is always a hazard for Huskar to initiate by using Life Break, because Chaotic Offering can stun him instantly, even when Black King Bar is activated, and allows Warlock's team to gather their wit and retaliate.
* After using Life Break to jump in, Huskar will not have any means to escape Upheaval. Which since he is an attack-dependent hero, this will nullify his impact in fights.
Death Prophet
* Because all of Warlock's abilities are active abilities, silences can make his impact in fights minimal. Be cautious of heroes that carry silences like Death Prophet, Puck, and the aforementioned Silencer.
Huskar
* Husker is the kind of hero that likes to remain at low health, which is perfect for Queen of Pain to burst with Sonic Wave.
* She should be able to Blink away after he jumps on her with Life Break.
Death Prophet
* In early to mid stage, Silence is also a great way to counter escape oriented heroes such as Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, and Phantom Assassin to prevent them from escaping, provided that they don't have any basic dispels.
Additional:
* Silence will prevent Queen of Pain from using Blink to escape or chase.
* If Queen of Pain uses Blink to close the gap to Death Prophet, Death Prophet will be in range for 
Spirit Siphon and typically gain an advantage over Queen of Pain.
Death Prophet
* Death Prophet has a high mana pool and due to her heavy reliance on her spells, she will be a prime target for 
Mana Void.
* Death Prophet has less mobility than Anti-Mage due to 
Blink.
Huskar
* Heroes with illusions can overwhelm Huskar: Phantom Lancer, Anti-Mage, Arc Warden, Chaos Knight.
Death Prophet
* In early to mid stage, Silence is also a great way to counter escape oriented heroes such as Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, and Phantom Assassin to prevent them from escaping, provided that they don't have any basic dispels.
Huskar
* Huskar does not need any mana to fight Anti-Mage as most of his skills cost HP instead. He is a good counter to take away Anti-mage's farm in early to mid-game. He, however, struggles to kill Anti-Mage in the late game.
Additional:
* Huskar is not very reliant on mana to cast his spells, therefore, 
Mana Break is not very effective against him.
* Huskar also has low mana pool, he will take less damage once his mana pool is completely depleted. Mana Void is also ineffective against him.
* Huskar comes online earlier than Anti-Mage, and can take over the game before Anti-Mage can farm up.
Death Prophet
* 
God's Strength allows Sven to take down Death Prophet quickly, reducing the damage dealt over time from Exorcism.
* 
Warcry's bonus armor and movement speed is very useful for Sven and his teammates against Exorcism, which deals physical damage.
Huskar
* Heroes who can take advantage of God's Strength being on cooldown are also not great matchups, such as 
Templar Assassin, Morphling and Huskar.
Huskar
* 
Windrun makes it impossible to hit Windranger with Burning Spears.
* Huskar cannot toggle 
Armlet of Mordiggian to regain health while taking constant damage from 
Focus Fire.
Additional:
* Windranger prevents Huskar from landing Burning Spears by using Windrun.
* Because Huskar tends to be at low health, Focus Fire and Powershot are good abilities against him.
Death Prophet
* Windranger heavily relies on her abilities for any form of tactical advantage and damage. A well timed silence will make her useless: Puck,Silencer, Death Prophet, Skywrath Mage, Drow Ranger, 
Earth Spirit, 
Grimstroke.
Death Prophet
* Silence will prevent Chen from activating 
Hand of God.
* 
Crypt Swarm and Exorcism can clear Chen's creeps and heavily damage Chen.
* Spirit Siphon heavily damages Chen and slows him, while healing Death Prophet.
Additional:
* Silence will prevent Chen from activating Hand of God.
* Crypt Swarm and Exorcism can clear Chen's creeps and heavily damage Chen.
* Spirit Siphon heavily damages Chen and slows him, while healing Death Prophet.
Huskar
* Inner Fire can damage and disarm Chen's creeps.
* Burning Spear's high damage over time that grows stronger the more it stacks can force Chen to use Hand of God prematurely, potentially wasting a chance to save his allies during a teamfight.
* Berserker's Blood makes it impossible for Chen and his creeps to kill Huskar.
* Life Break can deal huge damage to Chen and slow him down.
Death Prophet
* Crypt Swarm helps clear waves of Treants.
* Silence prevents Nature's Prophet from using Sprout or Teleportation.
* Exorcism kills Treants with ease.
Additional:
* Crypt Swarm helps clear waves of Treants.
* Silence prevents Nature's Prophet from using Sprout or Teleportation.
* Exorcism kills Treants with ease.
Huskar
* 
Sprout will not protect Nature's Prophet from Huskar if he has already locked on with Life Break.
* Even a farmed Nature's Prophet is usually not durable enough to fight Huskar alone.
Death Prophet
* Death Prophet's Crypt Swarm and Spirit Siphon can repetively damage Earthshaker, preventing him from using 
Blink Dagger.
* Silence can be used to silence Earthshaker after he blinks in with Blink Dagger, preventing him from executing his combo.
* Spirits from Exorcism are completely invulnerable and cannot interact with anything at all, which will greatly weaken damage from 
Echo Slam. This can put Earthshaker in a serious disadvantage against Death Prophet.
Huskar
* Earthshaker's stuns will rarely save him once Huskar has initiated on him with Life Break.
* A full initiation combo will not kill Huskar, only lower his health and increase his attack speed.
Death Prophet
* Spirit Siphon can deal some serious damage to Clockwerk while he is in 
Power Cogs while healing Death Prophet in process. Exorcism can also be used to take down Clockwerk faster while he is in Power Cogs.
* Death Prophet usually buys a Hurricane Pike or Eul's Scepter of Divinity which allows her to easily escape from Power Cogs or save her allies from Clockwerk.
* Silence can prevent Clockwerk from using his ablities during teamfight, especially since Clockwerk is an easy target for it while in Power Cogs.
Additional:
* Spirit Siphon can deal some serious damage to Clockwerk while he is in Power Cogs while healing Death Prophet in process. Exorcism can also be used to take down Clockwerk faster while he is in Power Cogs.
* Death Prophet usually buys a Hurricane Pike or Eul's Scepter of Divinity which allows her to easily escape from Power Cogs or save her allies from Clockwerk.
* Silence can prevent Clockwerk from using his ablities during teamfight, especially since Clockwerk is an easy target for it while in Power Cogs.
Huskar
* Clockwerk cannot go head-to-head with Huskar in Power Cogs, as Berserker's Blood and Life Break will destroy him faster than the other way around.
Additional:
* Clockwerk's abilities cannot handle Huskar in a one-on-one fight, even if he gets the jump on him.
Death Prophet
* Spirit Siphon does a lot of magical damage, especially in the early game. This allows her to demolish low health heroes such as Zeus, 
Pugna, especially when combined with her other spells.
Huskar
* Huskar's Burning Spears chip through his low health pool quickly.Consequently, he is forced to either invest on health regen or abandon the lane.
* Reliant on magic damage, there is little he can do against Huskar.
* Huskar will usually kill him if he gets Life Break off,given Zeus' poor mobility.
Death Prophet
* Silence (and mana burns) will be a persistent problem for Phoenix, as it is heavily reliant on its abilities whether defensively or offensively, so heroes like Death Prophet, Skywrath Mage, and even 
Nyx Assassin must be closely observed to prevent being shut down by these heroes.
* Hexes are a greater threat to Phoenix as they also disable items, preventing Phoenix from dispelling the debuff on its own.
Huskar
* Huskar's high attack speed can counteract 
Fire Spirits, and easily destroy the 
Supernova.
Additional:
* Berserker's Blood will let Huskar easily face down a Supernova with increased attack speed.
* 
Icarus Dive may not be an easy escape from Huskar either as he can chase Phoenix during it with Life Break if Huskar times it right.
* However, Phoenix can buy items which can
Death Prophet
* Heroes who can clear the waves of Enigma's Eidolons: Lina, 
Luna, 
Dawnbreaker, 
Jakiro, 
Shadow Shaman, Death Prophet, 
Keeper of the Light, Invoker, 
Leshrac, Puck.
Huskar
* Inner Fire can damage and disarm Enigma's eidolons, which can then be cleared out with Burning Spears.
* Huskar's Burning Spears can deal serious damage over time to Enigma during laning and teamfights, and it can also disable Blink Dagger for a long time.
* Berserker's Blood that provides Huskar with magic resistance and bonus health regeneration makes it difficult for Enigma to take down Huskar. Huskar is also a common 
Satanic wielder, which can help him recover from Enigma's 
Black Hole in case he survives it. Enigma's only source of dealing Pure Damage that can bypass Berserker's Blood. This forces Enigma to buy 
Silver Edge, the only item that can help him against Huskar's Berserker's Blood.
* However, Huskar does not have any way to cancel Black Hole outside from Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Life Break that can force Enigma to attack Huskar if used on him.
Death Prophet
* Death Prophet's Silence allows her to prevent Bounty Hunter from escaping with Shadow Walk.
* If Bounty Hunter cannot escape with Shadow Walk while affected by Silence, she will be able to burst him down with Crypt Swarm and Spirit Siphon.
Additional:
* Death Prophet's Silence allows her to prevent Bounty Hunter from escaping with Shadow Walk.
* If Bounty Hunter cannot escape with Shadow Walk while affected by Silence, she will be able to burst him down with Crypt Swarm and Spirit Siphon.
Huskar
* Huskar with Life Break
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:
* 
Abaddon with 
Aphotic Shield and Borrowed Time
* Huskar with Life Break
* 
Juggernaut with Blade Fury
* Legion Commander with 
Press the Attack
* 
Lifestealer with Rage and 
Infest
* 
Naga Siren with Mirror Image
* 
Omniknight with Heavenly Grace
* 
Oracle with 
Fortune's End and 
False Promise
* Phantom Lancer with 
Doppelganger
* 
Slark with 
Dark Pact
* 
Ursa with 
Enrage
* Weaver with 
Time Lapse
* Tidehunter with 
Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Death Prophet
* Because Exorcism's damage is not reduce by damage block abilities or items, Death Prophet can be very good against heroes who rely on armor to survive: Axe, Terrorblade, Morphling, Dragon Knight
Huskar
* Huskar can burn down Dragon Knight's health quickly during the early to mid game, but is not as effective during the late game. However, Life Break remains a constant threat due to the slow and percentage-based damage.
Additional:
* Huskar can negate Dragon Knight's passive with multiple trades of Burning Spear.
Death Prophet
* In the same vein, heroes with silences — especially with the AoE ones like Death Prophet's Silence — can also prevent Crystal Maiden from being able to impact a fight.
Huskar
* Vulnerable spellcasters with no escape mechanisms are easy targets for Huskar: Lich, 
Crystal Maiden, Silencer, Keeper of the Light, Venomancer, etc.
Death Prophet
* Death Prophet is able to Silence Undying up to 6 seconds. Besides, due to Undying's high strength during a team fight, Spirit Siphon is a powerful ability against Undying thanks to the percentage health drain.
Huskar
* Huskar's huge damage output and attack speed can get rid of Undying and Tombstone quickly.
Death Prophet
* Lich is heavily reliant on his abilities to contribute to team fights, so be wary of enemies that can Silence: 
Bloodseeker, Death Prophet, Silencer, Drow Ranger, Skywrath Mage.
Huskar
* Vulnerable spellcasters with no escape mechanisms are easy targets for Huskar: Lich, Crystal Maiden, Silencer, Keeper of the Light, Venomancer, etc.
Additional:
* Lich is going to have a hard time nuking Huskar because of his high health regeneration from Berserker's Blood.
* Lich is a squishy support without an escape mechanism, making Lich an easy kill thanks to Life Break and Burning Spear.
* Once Huskar has Armlet of Mordiggian, even a maxed out Frost Blast will struggle to finish Huskar off.
Death Prophet
* Exorcism's ghosts will automatically clear all Proximity Mines revealed when Death Prophet walks near them, provided that the ghosts do not have a specific target at that time.
* Death Prophet is a natural Eul's Scepter of Divinity carrier, meaning she can easily escape a Blast Off initiation.
Huskar
* Huskar's burn damage from Burning Spear is incredibly strong against Templar Assassin as it completely cancels out her Refraction from the burning over time which results in making her very vulnerable to ganks and harassments, and in turn forcing her out of the lane.
Death Prophet
* Because Timbersaw relies heavily on his spells to deal damage, Silence can easily disable him in a team fight.
* Exorcism's spirits do not count as regular attacks, and will not add stacks of 
Reactive Armor.
Huskar
* Burning Spear's magical damage is very troublesome for Mars in the laning stage.
* Life Break's percentage-based magical damage bypasses Bulwark, and can also be used to jump in or out of Arena Of Blood.
Huskar
* Life Break and Burning Spear usually kills Gyrocopter before he can do much damage to Huskar.
* Inner Fire applies a disarm on all enemies, which can be a hindrance to Gyrocopter.
Huskar
* Since Tidebringer has a 4 second cooldown, Kunkka has little availability to manfight Huskar.
Huskar
* Huskar can destroy Ember Spirit both on the line and in the game. It will be extremely difficult for Ember Spirit to finish off the creeps, because Huskar will not let him approach them, and if Ember Spirit does come up, Huskar just shuts him up with his Burning Spear and Ember Spirit will have to go to the base or bring himself treatment, or continue to stand and die. In all cases, Ember Spirit will go into negative
Additional:
* Ember Spirit does minimal damage to Huskar until the very late game.
* Huskar can destroy Ember Spirit both on the line and in the game. It will be extremely difficult for Ember Spirit to finish off the creeps, because Huskar will not let him approach them, and if Ember Spirit does come up, Huskar just shuts him up with his Burning Spear and Ember Spirit will have to go to the base or bring himself treatment, or continue to stand and die. In all cases, Ember Spirit will go into negative
Huskar
* Life Break along with Burning Spear can quickly kill Razor before Static Link steals enough damage for Razor to take down Huskar.
* Berserker's Blood can make stealing Huskar's damage and using it against him somewhat dangerous, as Huskar will be able to inflict more and more Burning Spears rapidly.
Huskar
* Magnus cannot manfight Huskar even with Empower, Berserker's Blood's high attack speed and health regeneration, combined with Huskar's high health and Burning Spear stacks will allow Huskar to kill Magnus before he can kill him.
* From a safe distance, Huskar can surprise and counter Magnus's initiation with Life Break and Burning Spear.
* Burning Spear also deals damage over time, disabling Blink Dagger and preventing him from initiating or escaping.
Death Prophet
* Spirit Siphon exploits her naturally high HP to deal a good amount of DPS. She may break the link with Rebound, but Silence covers that problem.
* Marci's poor armor makes her vulnerable to Exorcism.
Huskar
* Life Break closes the distance between Huskar and Drow Ranger, dealing large amounts of damage and disabling Marksmanship.
* Berserker's Blood and Burning Spear allow Huskar to beat Drow Ranger directly and pile on damage.
Death Prophet
* Kraken Shell neither dispels nor provides damage reduction against Spirit Siphon. This ability also drains health based on percentage damage, making Tidehunter's large healthpool a very appealing target. Furthermore, the health gained from the Siphon is independent from the amount of damage dealt, so Death Prophet will always heal a large amount of from Tidehunter's pool even if Tidehunter has magic reduction items or abilities on him, which makes her an untargetable enemy for you as this easily outweights any damage output you can provide.
* Exorcism is yet another ability from which Kraken Shell provides no useful protection, as the spirits completely ignore the damage block and are unaffected by the dispel. This ability also creates an unfriendly area where your blink will be constantly cancelled, reducing your ability to land a good Ravage.
* Ravage does not stop neither Spirit Siphon nor Exorcism, making the ability mostly ineffective against her. Additionally, Death Prophet usually builds Eul's Scepter of Divinity, which can be used to dodge the stun entirely.
Death Prophet
* Spirit Siphon and Exorcism can damage through his 
Resonant Pulse shields.
* Silence can prevent Void Spirit escape or contributing much in fights.
Huskar
* Huskar jumps on the hero without any problems, throwing the 
Summon Spirit Bear away from him and forbidding him to beat, which knocks down the regeneration of Lone Druid from the 
Spirit Link ability, in addition, Huskar instantly deals fatal damage to Lone Druid, in some cases he does not even have time to squeeze the 
True Form

* Burning Spear's damage over time can rapidly burn Medusa's mana and health alike.
* Inner Fire can slow and disarm Medusa and also allow Huskar to follow up with Life Break.
Death Prophet
* 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.
Huskar
* Burning Spears can put 
Monkey King's 
Tree Dance on cooldown.
Death Prophet
* Heroes with silencing abilities can be particularly deadly when Slark is trying to escape: Silencer, Death Prophet, Puck, 
Doom.
Huskar
* Sunder can prevent Terrorblade's or an ally's death by swapping health, making damage-over-time abilities inefficient. Heroes that rely on damage-over-time abilities like Venomancer and Huskar will have a hard time against Sunder.
Death Prophet
* Because Exorcism's damage is not reduce by damage block abilities or items, Death Prophet can be very good against heroes who rely on armor to survive: Axe, Terrorblade, Morphling, Dragon Knight
Huskar
* As Terrorblade's damage output comes mainly from direct attacks, he will struggle greatly against heroes who have abilities that give evasion, trigger on attack or which can disarm an enemy hero: 
Centaur Warrunner, 
Hoodwink, Huskar, Invoker, Leshrac with 
Nihilism from Aghanim's Scepter, Lifestealer with Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Infest, 
Pangolier, Phantom Assassin, Pugna, 
Techies, 
Windranger etc.
Huskar
* Certain heroes can mess up with Pangolier's positioning and timing (especially if he intends to use Rolling Thunder during combat): Vengeful Spirit, Keeper of the Light, Huskar, 
Dark Seer
Death Prophet
* Heroes with good counter-push abilities to clear creep waves can hinder Jakiro's early pushing ability: Death Prophet, 
Sniper, 
Tinker, Windranger.
Death Prophet
* A couple of long-range heroes with excellent laning like 
Mirana, Lina, 
Necrophos, Death Prophet. The key to success is sticking together and attacking Luna whenever she enters the range, without even giving Luna a chance to retaliate. Multiple long-range heroes is a reason to pick another hero.
Death Prophet
* Heroes who can silence will shut down Dark Willow entirely: Death Prophet, Silencer, Drow Ranger
Death Prophet
* Any heroes with stuns or silences: Death Prophet, Lion, Shadow Shaman, Skywrath Mage
Death Prophet
* Spirit Siphon does a lot of magical damage, especially in the early game. This allows her to demolish low health heroes such as Zeus, Pugna, especially when combined with her other spells.
Huskar
* Heroes with spell immunity: Juggernaut, Pangolier, Huskar.
Huskar
* Vulnerable spellcasters with no escape mechanisms are easy targets for Huskar: Lich, Crystal Maiden, Silencer, Keeper of the Light, Venomancer, etc.
Additional:
* Huskar can easily regenerate lost health from DoT spells through Berserker's Blood rendering them ineffective
* Venomancer has little armor and mobility, and rarely builds Linken's Sphere, so he is quite vulnerable to Life Break.
Death Prophet
* Heroes with strong area-of-effect damaging and/or disabling abilities will be able to intercept Underlord and his team when they exit from Fiend's Gate: Luna's Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Eclipse, Dawnbreaker's

Huskar
* Spirit Breaker's stuns pierce spell immunity, making him a good choice against heroes that heavily rely on Black King Bar; Huskar
Death Prophet
* Heroes who can continue dealing damage even while being stunned: Luna, Razor, Axe, Bristleback, Leshrac, Death Prophet, Jakiro.
Huskar
* Heroes that can slow Charge of Darkness by a huge amount: Venomancer, 
Viper, Dazzle, Arc Warden, Lion, Huskar, Shadow Shaman, 
Visage, 
Undying, Jakiro.
Huskar
* Vulnerable spellcasters with no escape mechanisms are easy targets for Huskar: Lich, Crystal Maiden, Silencer, Keeper of the Light, Venomancer, etc.
Death Prophet
* Heroes that are hard to gank: Axe, Death Prophet, Phantom Lancer, Slark, Centaur Warrunner, Bristleback, Medusa, Mars.
Death Prophet
* Heroes that can punish aggressive heroes, such as: Leshrac, 
Shadow Demon, Pugna, Death Prophet.
Huskar
* Heroes with damage over time abilities can quickly eat through Gravekeeper's Cloak charges like Huskar, Jakiro and Queen of Pain.
Huskar
* Heroes with abilities that reduce armor will make Huskar very vulnerable: Weaver, Dazzle, Bristleback, Vengeful Spirit.
Huskar
* Weaver cannot Time Lapse out of Huskar's burn damage.
Death Prophet
* Heroes that can kill Death Prophet with nukes can prevent her from using Exorcism to its full duration or using it at all: Lina, Lion, Puck, Morphling.
Death Prophet
* While Morphling can burst her down with 
Adaptive Strike (Agility), Death Prophet does have tools to disrupt him. A Morphling affected by Silence makes it unable to use 
Attribute Shift (Strength Gain) to increase its health pool or use 
Waveform to escape.
Huskar
* Heroes with high magical burst can easily kill Huskar when he is at low health: Lion, Lina, Skywrath Mage
Huskar
* Skywrath Mage's armor and agility gain is very low, so when Huskar's Burning Spears stack they can take him down very quickly at any point of the game.
* Berserker's Blood grants bonuses as Huskar uses Burning Spears to harass Skywrath Mage, granting him attack speed, magic resistance, and strength as health regen, making it possible that Huskar can harass Skywrath Mage out of lane and sustain through his magic burst through staying injured throughout lane, or even the game.
* Life Break allows Huskar to jump onto Skywrath Mage, closing the distance between them and busting him down so he cannot run. This can be combed with Inner Fire, adding a movement speed slow if Aghanim's Shard is applied so Skywrath Mage cannot escape.
Death Prophet
* Heroes that can kill Death Prophet with nukes can prevent her from using Exorcism to its full duration or using it at all: Lina, Lion, Puck, Morphling.
Huskar
* Axe, Bristleback, Centaur Warrunner, 
Spirit Breaker, 
Pudge, Huskar, Wraith King, Doom: These heroes are too tanky for Puck to burst down. Also, all of them have spells which can deal with and shut Puck down reliably.
Huskar
* Carries that can out damage Huskar will do well against him: Legion Commander, Faceless Void, Troll Warlord, Phantom Assassin.
Death Prophet
* In early to mid stage, Silence is also a great way to counter escape oriented heroes such as Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, and Phantom Assassin to prevent them from escaping, provided that they don't have any basic dispels.
Huskar
* Quas Exort Invoker has high physical damage in the form of Cold Snap and Forged Spirits that allows him to trade hits with Huskar.
* Although Huskar can dispel Cold Snap with Life Break.
* Sun Strike deals pure damage and pierces spell immunity, and Huskar tends to drain his HP, making him a susceptible target.
Death Prophet
* Quas-Exort Invoker is also a good matchup due to the fact he has no 
Wex to run faster due to the movement impairment on his stealth. The 
Forge Spirit and 
Cold Snap combo doesn't harm her as well since you can drain Invoker's HP with Spirit Siphon which forces him to retreat.
* Silence also prevents Invoker from using 
Invoke or casting his main spells temporarily. There is no way Invoker can block it unless he has Eul's Scepter of Divinity to cyclone himself or has help from allies.
Huskar
* Nyx Assassin can reflect Life Break with 
Spiked Carapace.
Huskar
* Heroes who rely on damage over time as Spiked Carapace can block and reflect only one instance of damage: Jakiro, Viper, Venomancer, Huskar, Ember Spirit, Dark Seer, Sand King, Doom, Dawnbreaker. However, this also means they are easily stunned.
Huskar
* Heroes with pure damage can kill Huskar when he inevitably gets low on health: Outworld Destroyer, Silencer.
Additional:
* Outworld Destroyer can dodge Life Break with Astral Imprisonment, leaving him unharmed while Huskar loses HP.
* Sanity's Eclipse can deal massive damage to Huskar before he builds up his Berserker's Blood stacks due to Huskar's low mana pool.
Death Prophet
* Any heroes with silences can negate the majority of Outworld Destroyer's damage output: Death Prophet, 
Night Stalker, Drow Ranger, Doom .
Huskar
* Heroes with pure damage can kill Huskar when he inevitably gets low on health: Outworld Destroyer, Silencer.
Huskar
* Vulnerable spellcasters with no escape mechanisms are easy targets for Huskar: Lich, Crystal Maiden, Silencer, Keeper of the Light, Venomancer, etc.
Huskar
* 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.
Death Prophet
* Exorcism kills Primal Split's units very quickly.
Death Prophet
* Ice Blast prevents Death Prophet from gaining health from
Spirit Siphon and 
Exorcism.
Ice Blast prevents Death Prophet from gaining health from Spirit Siphon and Exorcism.
Additional:
*
* However, there is a way for Death Prophet to counter Ice Blast: Since Death Prophet is not healed until the spirits are returned to her. She can attempt to outrun her spirits to delay their return until Ice Blast duration runs out.
Huskar
* Ice Blast prevents Huskar from healing with
Berserker's Blood and negates any lifesteal, making him significantly weaker in battle.
Burning Spear and 
Life Break cost Huskar his own health, killing him under the effects from Ice Blast.
Armlet of Mordiggian which can be deadly during Ice Blast.
Ice Blast prevents Huskar from healing, regeneration, health gained from activating an 
Armlet of Mordiggian and will kill him when his health dips below a threshold. This makes it very dangerous for him to use his abilities.
*
* Huskar often builds
