* 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.
Undying
* Tombstone's zombies rarely inhibit Anti-Mage, as he can either Blink away or onto the Tombstone and destroy it.
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.
Omniknight
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 3%)Death Prophet
* Guardian Angel nullifies the physical damage from Exorcism. With
Aghanim's Scepter, it also prevents Death Prophet from pushing towers.

Silence allies if Omniknight is able to cast it.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)Undying
* Arcane Curse can effectively discourage Undying from casting his spammable abilities in a team fight, as Undying will have to suffer more damage and the slow due to the penalty duration of Arcane Curse.
* Last Word and
Global Silence are able to silence Undying for up to 6 seconds, preventing Undying from gaining strength and healing his ally or himself.
Legion Commander
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)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.
Abaddon
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Death Prophet
* Exorcism will continuously heal Abaddon under Borrowed Time, and cannot be turned off.
* {Ability ID:Spirit Siphon|Death Prophet} will continuously heal Abaddon under Borrowed Time, for a percentage of his maximum health.

* Flak Cannon rips through Tombstone's zombies.
Additional:
* Flak Cannon enables Gyrocopter to clear the zombies easily.
Weaver
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Undying
* Geminate Attack works on Tombstone, allowing Weaver to kill it quickly.
* Zombies attacking Weaver disappear once he goes invisible with Shukuchi.
* Undying has no way to catch a mobile Weaver.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Undying
* Phantom Lancer's many illusions will easily destroy Tombstone, provided he has sufficient farm.
* He also has no ways of dealing with the illusions, since Decay doesn't steal strength from illusions.
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Undying
* Necrophos is a dangerous opponent to go against with. Regardless of how much strength Undying has gained from Decay, Necrophos can finish off Undying with Reaper's Scythe once Undying's HP falls below a certain threshold.
* Heartstopper Aura will do more damage to Undying if he gained strength from Decay, as it does damage based on a hero's maximum health.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)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.
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Undying
* Due to Fervor and Battle Trance, Troll Warlord has a significant attack speed, enabling him to crush Tombstone quickly.
* Undying usually stays at the front line with no disables, making him an easy target for Troll Warlord.
Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Undying
* Lifestealer is able to endure Undying, especially in the laning phase, where Undying is strongest. Feast can offset Decay's strength steal for its percentage lifesteal. Rage delays Undying from stealing strength and can help Lifestealer destroy Undying's
Tombstone uninterrupted. As well, none of Undying's abilities pierce magic immunity.
Shadow Fiend
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 18%)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.
Alchemist
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Undying
* Chemical Rage will take down Tombstone in no time.

[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 1%)Undying
* Meepo can quickly destroy Tombstone thanks to
Divided We Stand.
Visage
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 2%)Undying
* Familiars will easily be able to kite heroes with a short range or with low attack speed. For example, Tiny and
Undying have a very hard time killing Familiars.
Riki
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 13%)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.
Mirana
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 15%)Undying
* Mirana can destroy Tombstone, and evade zombies using Leap and Moonlight Shadow's invisibility.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 6%)Undying
* Huskar's huge damage output and attack speed can get rid of Undying and Tombstone quickly.
Underlord
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Undying
* In general, melee heroes without blink mechanisms or spell immunity will have a hard time positioning against Pit of Malice: Sven,
Tiny,
Wraith King,
Dragon Knight,
Meepo,
Doom,
Bounty Hunter,
Dark Seer,
Undying,
Alchemist,
Legion Commander.
Lina
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)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.
Puck
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)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.
Snapfire
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Undying
* Heroes with summons that are destroyed by a fixed number of attacks: Undying's
Tombstone,
Gyrocopter's
Homing Missile, and
Zeus's
Nimbus.
Bane
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)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.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Undying
* Chaos Knight's multiple illusions from
Phantasm can destroy Undying, as Soul Rip can't offset the damage from the high amount of damage from his illusions.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)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.
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)Undying
* Terrorblade can destroy Tombstone with his
Conjure Image and
Metamorphosis.
Luna
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)Undying
* Luna's Moon Glaives and
Lunar Blessing can help her destroy Tombstone easily, and this becomes more effective if Luna is equipped with
Manta Style.
* Spell Immunity of Zombies from Tombstone is a total disadvantage against Luna because Eclipse will strike only Undying, which can turn Undying's own ability against him.
* Though Undying often builds Blade Mail which can turn Luna's burst damage against her, Luna often builds
Black King Bar which will allow her to attack Undying freely because
Blade Mail cannot pierce spell immunity.
Additional:
* Luna's Moon Glaives and
Lunar Blessing can help her destroy Tombstone easily, and this becomes more effective if Luna is equipped with
Manta Style.
* Spell Immunity of Zombies from Tombstone is a total disadvantage against Luna because Eclipse will strike only Undying, which can turn Undying's own ability against him.
* Though Undying often builds Blade Mail which can turn Luna's burst damage against her, Luna often builds
Black King Bar which will allow her to attack Undying freely because
Blade Mail cannot pierce spell immunity.
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.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)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. Furthermore, Doom can use
Scorched Earth to chase after her.
Undying
* Heroes with a slow attack rate will find themselves struggling to take out Tombstone, like Doom.
Nature's Prophet
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 12%)Death Prophet
* Crypt Swarm can quickly kill any Treants. Silence also prevents him from using Teleportation to escape or
Sprout to lock you down.
Additional:
* Crypt Swarm helps clear waves of Treants.
* Silence prevents Nature's Prophet from using Sprout or Teleportation.
* Exorcism kills Treants with ease.
Undying
* Undying's Tombstone will cheerfully chew through treants, incidentally netting you some extra income during fights.
* The above interaction tends to ensure that skirmishes are heavily populated with units, thereby buffing Soul Rip
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 13%)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.
Undying
* Generally, any fragile heroes will have a hard time dealing with Undying's tankiness, and even more so if Decay is used on them. Some examples are Crystal Maiden and
Witch Doctor.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 43% pickrate: 1%)Undying
* Undying's Decay is a dangerous ability against Bristleback, as it makes him more vulnerable and reduces his tankiness.
* Undying's Tombstone together with Flesh Golem can slow Bristleback down significantly.
Mars
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Undying
* Decay,
Soul Rip and
Flesh Golem all deal magical damage which ignores Bulwark.
* Decay reduces Mars' natural strength and therefore his health pool, which is what he relies on to trade effectively in lane.
Marci
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)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.
Void Spirit
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Death Prophet
* Spirit Siphon and
Exorcism can damage through his
Resonant Pulse shields.
* Silence can prevent Void Spirit escape or contributing much in fights.
Ogre Magi
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Undying
* 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.
Winter Wyvern
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 3%)Undying
* Winter Wyvern cannot handle the Zombies created by Undying's Tombstone very well. In most situations, Zombies will have more movement speed than her.
* Undying can gain one or two easy Decay stacks on an ally in Cold Embrace. The ally will still take the damage as well.
Additional:
* Winter Wyvern cannot handle the Zombies created by Tombstone very well. In most situations, Zombies will have more movement speed than her.
* Undying can gain one or two easy Decay stacks on an ally in Cold Embrace. The ally will still take the damage as well, since it is magical.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Undying
* Due to Spirit Breaker's low attack speed, Tombstone is problematic for Spirit Breaker.
* The zombies summoned from Tombstone apply a stacking movement speed slow, which can significantly reduce Greater Bash's damage.
* Soul Rip and
Decay allows Undying and his allies to survive from incoming ganks of Spirit Breaker.
Techies
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)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.
Primal Beast
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Death Prophet
* Silence can be used to interrupt Primal Beast while he is channeling Pulverize.
* Spirit Siphon can whittle down Primal Beast's health and can potentially heal back any burst damage he deals to her.
* Exorcism can shed Primal Beast's health down while he attempts to complete any skill combos during a fight with it active.
Bounty Hunter
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)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.
Centaur Warrunner
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Undying
* Decay can be good against Centaur Warrunner, as reducing the health of Centaur can make Double Edge risky.
* His zombies do not proc Retaliate, as it only procs for regular attacks.
Chen
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 0%)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.
Spectre
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 11%)Undying
* Spectre must chase for kills and relies on movement speed for mobility in fights, and has no way to counter the Tombstone zombies.
* The potency of Soul Rip can be increased from nearby illusions from Haunt.
* Decay will shut down Spectre during the laning phase by effectively cutting down her initial health pool.
Additional:
* Spectre must chase for kills and relies on movement speed for mobility in fights, and has no way to counter the Tombstone zombies.
* The potency of Soul Rip can be increased from nearby illusions, so Undying can use Haunt against Spectre.
* Early game Decay will make Spectre easy to shut down in lane.
Brewmaster
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 1%)Death Prophet
* Exorcism kills Primal Split's units very quickly.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 6%)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.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)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.
Pugna
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)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.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Undying
* Generally, any fragile heroes will have a hard time dealing with Undying's tankiness, and even more so if Decay is used on them. Some examples are Crystal Maiden and
Witch Doctor.
Batrider
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)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.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)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.
Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Death Prophet
* Any heroes with stuns or silences: Death Prophet,
Lion,
Shadow Shaman,
Skywrath Mage
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Death Prophet
* With 4 active abilities, Shadow Shaman is weak against silencing foes such as Silencer,
Drow Ranger and
Death Prophet.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 29%)Undying
* Anti-Tank heroes like: Razor,
Necrophos,
Undying.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)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.
Enigma
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)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.
Phoenix
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)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.
Warlock
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)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.
Jakiro
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 12%)Death Prophet
* Heroes with good counter-push abilities to clear creep waves can hinder Jakiro's early pushing ability: Death Prophet,
Sniper,
Tinker,
Windranger.
Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Death Prophet
* Any heroes with silences can negate the majority of Outworld Destroyer's damage output: Death Prophet,
Night Stalker,
Drow Ranger,
Doom .
Dark Willow
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Death Prophet
* Heroes who can silence will shut down Dark Willow entirely: Death Prophet,
Silencer,
Drow Ranger
Slark
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Death Prophet
* Heroes with silencing abilities can be particularly deadly when Slark is trying to escape: Silencer,
Death Prophet,
Puck,
Doom.
Io
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Death Prophet
* Heroes that are hard to gank: Axe,
Death Prophet,
Phantom Lancer
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 4%)Death Prophet
* Heroes that can punish aggressive heroes, such as: Leshrac,
Shadow Demon,
Pugna,
Death Prophet.
Morphling
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 8%)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.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)Undying
* Reactive Armor makes Timbersaw very effective against heroes that control a lot of units, such as
Broodmother,
Lycan and
Undying.
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.
Invoker
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 14%)Undying
* Invoker's multiple spells can lock down Undying and disable him from doing much.
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.
Sven
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Death Prophet
* God's Strength allows Sven to take down Death Prophet quickly, reducing the damage dealt over time from Exorcism.
* Warcry's bonus armour and movement speed is very useful for Sven and his teammates against Exorcism, which deals physical damage.
Undying
* Undying can use Decay not only to reduce Sven's maximum health, but also to reduce the damage he can deal with his ultimate.
* Zombies spawned by Tombstone together with Flesh Golem slow Sven down significantly. Landing Sven's powerful but somewhat slow right-click on Tombstone would be a waste.
Tidehunter
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Undying
* Tidehunter takes close to no damage from Undying's zombies once he maxes out his Kraken Shell, especially if he gets the level 20 Kraken Shell upgrading talent. This might allow him to blink away to safety.
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.
Earthshaker
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Undying
* Zombies summoned from Tombstone will amplify the damage of Echo Slam due to them increasing the echo damage.
Death Prophet
* Death Prophet abilities disables Earthshaker's Blink Dagger.
* Silence can be used to silence Earthshaker after he blinks in, preventing him from executing his combo.
To start select enemy heroes in the field above. It's intended to be used with multiple heroes. The more enemy heroes you provide the better results you will get.
About
This website was made to help you in pick stage of online game Dota 2. It calculates rating for each possible counterpicks based on tips from web-based database made up entirely of user contributions Dota 2 wiki.
You will get the list of recommended hero counters with a list of tips written by Dota 2 wiki contributors explaining why it's good against the particular hero. In comparison to other similar websites, which show only rating based on average hero win rate from dotabuff or similar service.
How to interpret this data
Take it with a bit of grain of salt, especially if the recommendation has a low rating (<= 1), some heroes
may win a lane in an early game but would lose in late game (and vice versa). That's why sometimes
you could hero names appearing as a counter and as being countered, as on image:
You can also add your own tips, update old data and fix mistakes by editing page on Dota 2 Wiki (it works like Wikipedia - anyone can contribute, you don't even need to register) these edits will appear on this website automatically (data is updated several times per week).
Right now there is no app/overlay that will detect picks automatically (like overwolf dota plus or become the gamer), instead, you can open web version in a steam in-game browser or use mobile version on your smartphone.

Death Prophet
* Heroes with strong team-fight abilities (especially ultimates) like
Tidehunter,
Brewmaster,
Death Prophet, etc.
Undying
*
Tombstone can be stolen to counter-initiate the enemy team in skirmishes.
Tombstone provides vision over the enemy around, use this to Rubick's advantage for more spells.
Undying is melee and has low attack speed, the tombstone can be hard to taken down by Undying himself.
Flesh Golem provides Rubick with increased Health pool and a powerful attack modifier.
Rubick can apply the
Flesh Golem debuff much more easily as a ranged hero.
Decay is a decent damaging ability, making Rubick somewhat tankier in teamfights.
Soul Rip can be used for extra heal or burst damage.
