[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 11%)Bane
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Gyrocopter

Clinkz,
Drow Ranger,
Faceless Void,
Gyrocopter,
Juggernaut,
Luna,
Meepo,
Mirana,
Monkey King,
Morphling,

Brewmaster
* After Brewmaster has committed Thunder Clap and Cinder Brew to gank, Bane can use Nightmare on Brewmaster to wait out the debuffs, and might even turn the tables by buying time for allied reinforcements.
* Bane can also prevent Brewmaster from using Primal Split with his long disables.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 6%)Gyrocopter
* Blink makes it hard for Gyrocopter to pin down Queen of Pain.
* Sonic Wave is very effective at ganking Gyrocopter in the early game.

Lion
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high magical burst damage will kill Gyrocopter before he gets to do much: Lina,
Lion,
Zeus
Brewmaster
* Hex's instant cast time will force Brewmaster into the awkward situation of needing some form of spell immunity or block to prevent being immediately hex upon blinking in, or wait until Lion has used all his crowd control before entering a fight. His direct magic burst also makes Brewmaster's Drunken Brawler worthless versus Lion.
Death Prophet
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 11%)Brewmaster

Arc Warden
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 5%)Gyrocopter

Weaver
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Brewmaster

Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 10%)Brewmaster
* Ancient Seal's instant cast time will often silence Brewmaster before he can do anything.
* Brewmaster also has no defense against Skywrath Mage's massive magical damage.
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Brewmaster
* Hex's instant cast time will force Brewmaster into the awkward situation of needing some form of spell immunity or block to prevent being immediately hex upon blinking in, or wait until Shaman has used all his crowd control before entering a fight.
* Brewmaster also has no defense against Shadow Shaman lockdowns.
Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Gyrocopter

[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Gyrocopter

* Void Spirit can partly dodge Call Down via Dissimilate or move out of its range with Astral Step.
* Gyrocopter has no escape abilities, which benefits Void Spirit's high mobility.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)Gyrocopter
* Timbersaw is often too mobile and durable for Gyrocopter to bring down with his area attacks.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 11%)Gyrocopter

Enchantress,

Lion,
Riki,
Techies,
Terrorblade,
Necrophos,
Invoker.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 4%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with weaker mobility will struggle to keep up with Night Stalker: Gyrocopter,
Ursa,
Drow Ranger
Zeus
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high magical burst damage will kill Gyrocopter before he gets to do much: Lina,
Lion,
Zeus
Pudge
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 29%)Gyrocopter

Morphling,
Ember Spirit
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Gyrocopter
* Time Walk makes it hard for Gyrocopter to pin down Faceless Void. With
Backtrack it also negates most of his attacks.
* Time Dilation will prevent Gyrocopter from using his cooldown spells.
Brewmaster
* In general, Brewmaster's Cinder Brew and Thunder Clap makes him good against physical damage carries: Ursa,
Clinkz,
Faceless Void,
Troll Warlord,
Templar Assassin,
Phantom Assassin.
Additional:
* Thunder Clap and
Drunken Brawler prevent Faceless Void from maximising his damage potential in fights.

Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon destroys Chaos Knight's illusions very quickly.
Brewmaster
* Storm's Dispel Magic combined with Thunder Clap deals high damage against Chaos Knight's illusions even in the late game.
* Chaos Knight's reliance on physical damage is easily hindered by Drunken Brawler.
* Chaos Knight's lack of area effect and mobility makes him easily overwhelmed by Primal Split.
Additional:
* Dispel Magic from {U:Storm} can instantly kill Phantasms early on, and can still deal a lot of damage to them late game, revealing the real Chaos Knight.
Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Gyrocopter
* Weak damage but high tick rate or persist in a long time: Slark,
Gyrocopter,
Queen of Pain,
Shadow Shaman (
Shackles),
Jakiro,
Pugna
* Heroes that can quickly deal damage to her, regardless of how weak they are, can easily break through her Refraction:
* Multiple attackers thanks to summoned units or clones: Meepo,
Witch Doctor,
Lycan,
Enigma,
Shadow Shaman
* Multiple attackers thanks to illusions: Phantom Lancer,
Chaos Knight,
Naga Siren (bonus for her
Ensnare). Also despite the visual effects, Templar Assassin does not spill damage against illusions or buildings, so she is not a really good hero to clean up illusions.
* Weak damage but high tick rate or persist in a long time: Slark,
Gyrocopter,
Queen of Pain,
Shadow Shaman (
Shackles),
Jakiro,
Pugna
Brewmaster
* The three Primal Split brewlings all attacking Templar Assassin at once will remove her Refraction quickly, especially with Fire's Permanent Immolation.
* Templar Assassin has no way to stop Brewmaster from using Primal Split by herself, and may get unlucky and miss her Meld if trying to burst him during her ally's disable.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with heavy early and mid-game magical damage are also problematic for Phantom Assassin due to being able to easily kill her before she gains an item advantage: Lina,
Necrophos,
Nyx Assassin,
Gyrocopter. Should be noted these heroes are usually quite squishy and don't scale well with health. So to some respect, they are on a time crunch.
Brewmaster
* In general, Brewmaster's Cinder Brew and Thunder Clap makes him good against physical damage carries: Ursa,
Clinkz,
Faceless Void,
Troll Warlord,
Templar Assassin,
Phantom Assassin.

Abaddon
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Brewmaster
* {U:Storm} can use Cyclone on Abaddon when he activates Borrowed Time, wasting its duration.
* Drunken Brawler and
Thunder Clap hinder Abaddon from applying Curse of Avernus' silence on him.
Additional:
* Dispel Magic can remove Abaddon's Aphotic Shield or
Curse of Avernus on an allied hero.
* Cyclone's lengthy duration wastes much of Borrowed Time's duration.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon and
Call Down can easily clear Naga Siren's illusions.
Ursa
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)Brewmaster

Additional:
* Flak Cannon enables Gyrocopter to clear the zombies easily.
Lone Druid
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 3%)Brewmaster
* Brewmaster can make the Spirit Bear a much smaller threat with Cinder Brew.
* Cyclone removes the bear from a fight so that his team can easily focus on the hero.

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.
