Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Omniknight
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 3%)Gyrocopter
* Guardian Angel negates most of Gyrocopter's physical АоЕ damage.
* Heavenly Grace dispels Homing Missile stun.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 6%)Gyrocopter
* 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.
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Centaur Warrunner
* With high health and rarely buying Linken's Sphere or
Black King Bar, Centaur Warrunner is a good target for
Reaper's Scythe. However, Centaur Warrunner can resolve this problem by buying
Hood of Defiance and it's upgrade
Pipe of Insight to diminish its damage.
* Heartstopper Aura will do well against high health heroes such as Centaur Warrunner.
Lina
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Gyrocopter
* Laguna Blade ends Gyrocopter very quickly in the early to mid game.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 11%)Gyrocopter
* Blade Fury and
Omnislash allows Juggernaut to avoid Gyrocopter's area attacks entirely.
Luna
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)Centaur Warrunner
* Luna's Moon Glaives will not trigger
Retaliate if they hit some other target first. Also Luna commonly buys items that provide lifesteal such as
Satanic, which lets her heal from the damage of
Retaliate, meaning that
Retaliate has little effect against her.
* Eclipse can be used to counter-initiate against Centaur Warrunner after he jumps in with
Blink Dagger, and initiates with
Hoof Stomp. But remember that Centaur Warrunner can resolve this problem by buying
Hood of Defiance and it's upgrade
Pipe of Insight to diminish its damage. Or
Blade Mail to reflect the damage of the
Eclipse back at Luna.
* Luna also commonly buys Black King Bar, which will allow her to protect herself from both, Centaur Warrunner's abilities (except for the
Retaliate), and damage reflect from
Blade Mail.

Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Centaur Warrunner
* Battery Assault easily interrupts Centaur Warrunner due to his poor cast animation.
* Power Cogs can negate Stampede.
Disruptor
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)Centaur Warrunner
* Kinetic Field and
Glimpse can completely negate Stampede.
Kunkka
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Centaur Warrunner
* X Marks the Spot negates Stampede.
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
* Any hero with a low HP pool is easy for Tinker to nuke down: Crystal Maiden,
Enchantress,
Gyrocopter,
Lion,
Riki,
Techies,
Terrorblade,
Necrophos,
Invoker.
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
* Abilities that deal low damage with high amounts of instances are irrelevant against Pudge during Flesh Heap's active: Gyrocopter's
Rocket Barrage and
Dark Seer's
Ion Shell are just a couple examples.
Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high mobility will be able to avoid Gyrocopter's area attacks: Storm Spirit,
Morphling,
Ember Spirit
Snapfire
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with summons that are destroyed by a fixed number of attacks: Undying's
Tombstone,
Gyrocopter's
Homing Missile, and
Zeus's
Nimbus.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 11%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high mobility will be able to avoid Gyrocopter's area attacks: Storm Spirit,
Morphling,
Ember Spirit
Winter Wyvern
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 3%)Centaur Warrunner
* Winter Wyvern's
Arctic Burn can also be a useful tool against Centaur, who generally has very high health.
Winter's Curse on Centaur can cause Retaliate to damage allies who are forced to attack him.
Bane
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Gyrocopter
* Low-health, normally mobile carries with a lot of damage are vulnerable to Bane's nukes and disables: Anti-Mage,
Clinkz,
Drow Ranger,
Faceless Void,
Gyrocopter,
Juggernaut,
Luna,
Meepo,
Mirana,
Monkey King,
Morphling,
Phantom Assassin,
Phantom Lancer,
Riki,
Shadow Fiend,
Slark,
Sniper,
Terrorblade,
Troll Warlord,
Weaver.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high magical burst damage will kill Gyrocopter before he gets to do much: Lina,
Lion,
Zeus
Morphling
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 8%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high mobility will be able to avoid Gyrocopter's area attacks: Storm Spirit,
Morphling,
Ember Spirit
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 11%)Gyrocopter
* Mana Break makes Gyrocopter, who has low mana pool, unable to use his abilities that most of his damage output depends on.
* Counterspell negates magical damages from Gyrocopter and it can also reflect Homing Missile back to himself.
* Anti-Mage can easily escape from Gyrocopter's attack range and Call Down with Blink.
Centaur Warrunner
* Anti-Mage's
Mana Void won't do a lot of damage because Centaur has a low mana pool.
Mana Break is also relatively ineffective against him.
Void Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Gyrocopter
* Void Spirit can easily dodge Gyrocopter's {Ability ID:Homing Missile|gyrocopter} with the help of Dissimilate.
* 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.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who can match Void Spirit's mobility (like the aforementioned Ember Spirit or
Queen of Pain) or tank his spells (
Dragon Knight or
Centaur Warrunner) are very problematic for him.
Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Centaur Warrunner
* Centaur has nothing to deal with Refraction that will negate all of his burst damage.
* Psionic Traps provide good vision, making for him harder to initiate.
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
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.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes that can stop Faceless Void from leaping around the fight and controlling its outcome are very strong against him. Heroes such as: Axe,
Centaur Warrunner,
Doom...
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon destroys Phantom Lancer's illusions very quickly.
Additional:
* Flak Cannon and
Call Down destroy Phantom Lancer's illusions very quickly.
Centaur Warrunner
* His illusions will kill themselves in a few hits because of Retaliate. The nukes from Hoof Stomp and Double-Edge should be enough to clear them for a large portion of the game
* Centaur Warrunner's small mana pool makes Diffusal Blade's damage much lower once Centaur doesn't have any more mana left to burn. Keep in mind that Double Edge does not cost mana.
* Be wary when chasing down Phantom Lancer. Hoof Stomp's terrible cast time makes it quite easy to dodge with Doppelganger.
Additional:
* Hoof Stomp and
Double Edge makes short work of Phantom Lancer's illusions.
* Retaliate together with
Blade Mail reflects Phanton Lancer's damage and quickly destroys his illusions.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (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.
Centaur Warrunner
* Hoof Stomp and
Double Edge can often burst down Phantom Assassin from early to mid game.
* Retaliate makes it very unlikely for Phantom Assassin to win the lane against Warrunner.
Double Edge can also be used to wear her down, as she has a much smaller health pool than that of Centaur Warrunner until purchasing a
Ring of Health.
Stifling Dagger will also trigger
Retaliate and
Blur cannot evade
Retaliate.
* Centaur Warrunner's tankiness in combination with armour items that Axe often purchases like Blade Mail,
Crimson Guard,
Assault Cuirass and
Shiva's Guard can make Phantom Assassin's attacks only tickle Centaur Warrunner.
* Centaur Warrunner just has to be careful about Fan of Knives from
Aghanim's Shard and
Coup De Grace, as
Fan of Knives can disable
Retaliate even if Centaur Warrunner is spell immune.
Additional:

Double Edge can often burst down Phantom Assassin from early to mid game.
* Retaliate makes it very unlikely for Phantom Assassin to win the lane against Warrunner.

Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon destroys Chaos Knight's illusions very quickly.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who are reliant on illusions: Chaos Knight,
Phantom Lancer,
Naga Siren.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon and
Call Down can easily clear Naga Siren's illusions.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who are reliant on illusions: Chaos Knight,
Phantom Lancer,
Naga Siren.
Sven
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes that relies on armor or other type of physical damage negation are easy for Gyrocopter to take down during the early game with his magical damage: Axe,
Dragon Knight,
Sven.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who thrive on teamfights can be a problem such as Venomancer,
Necrophos,
Centaur Warrunner...
Sniper
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 11%)Centaur Warrunner
* Headshot and
Shrapnel slow is ineffective against a team with haste (which Stampede gives).
* Commonly picked up mobility items and hasted movement during his Stampede (as well as his high health pool) make him extremely hard to kill from a distance, damaging Sniper with Retaliate and
Blade Mail if he has one.
* A low health pool and no escape mechanism makes him an easy target for Centaur Warrunner's burst damage and initiation (even making his team possible initiators with Stampede).
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon destroys Terrorblade's illusions very quickly.
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 4%)Centaur Warrunner
* Stampede can allow Soulbinded heroes to just ran away.
Doom
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Centaur Warrunner
* Whenever Doom casts his ultimate, Centaur Warrunner can cast Stampede and allow the Doomed hero to run away, wasting Doom's ultimate.
Additional:
* Stampede can be used to free an ally from the grasp of Doom. Without any means of effective lockdown, kills can be difficult to secure when against an enemy Centaur Warrunner. Also, Centaur's tendency to have lots of health and HP regen tend to help counter Doom.
Pangolier
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Centaur Warrunner
* Pangolier will proc Retaliate several times if he attempts to use Swashbuckle on Centaur Warrunner.
* Centaur can cast Stampede to allow all of his allies to easily avoid Rolling Thunder.
* Centaur's tankiness makes it hard for Pangolier to burst him down in the late game.
Additional:
* When Swashbuckle hits Centaur Warrunner, Retaliate will deal significant damage, as it procs off every strike made.
* Stampede helps allies avoid or disengage from Pangolier during Rolling Thunder, as well as neutralizing the slow debuff from Lucky Shot.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)Centaur Warrunner
* Focus Fire grants Windranger a massive attack speed bonus, while her attack damage is generally quite low. This, combined with Windranger's low health pool and armor, makes Retaliate do absolutely massive damage over a short time, making Centaur a hero she can never expect to kill or harass.
* Windrun grants evasion, but Centaur Warrunner does not rely on successful attacks in order to do damage. Hoof Stomp, Double Edge, and Stampede all do large amounts of magical damage and can completely demolish Windranger in a moment.
Additional:
* Stampede can help his teammates escape from Windrun and Focus Fire.
* Retaliate will shred through Windranger's health if she chooses to attack him during Focus Fire.
Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Centaur Warrunner
* Centaur's low Intelligence makes Mana Burn do low damage.
* With some creative skill builds, Centaur's Hoof Stomp stun duration should always last longer than Spiked Carapace stun, so escaping unscathed is hard for Nyx.
* With Blink Dagger and detection, Centaur can devastate Nyx in the open.
* However, bear in mind that Nyx can also easily initiate on Centaur Warrunner as well if he uses Spiked Carapace in anticipation, and with
Vendetta. The damage from Retaliate will be reflected back to Centaur Warrunner, stunning him with no chance to react after he's revealed himself, and should guarantee a successful
Impale.
Razor
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Centaur Warrunner
* Centaur can use Stampede to break Static Link. It also prevents Razor from chasing Centaur Warruner or his teammates with Eye of the Storm, and Plasma Field's slow will do nothing to slow them down.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 1%)Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon and Call Down will shred Meepo's clones.
* Homing Missile can catch and single out retreating Meepos, making them an easy kill.
Dragon Knight
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 5%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes that relies on armor or other type of physical damage negation are easy for Gyrocopter to take down during the early game with his magical damage: Axe,
Dragon Knight,
Sven.
Enchantress
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 2%)Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes that can keep Monkey King stunned for a long time can pose a threat: Axe,
Centaur Warrunner.
Puck
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Centaur Warrunner
* Bristleback,
Centaur Warrunner,
Spirit Breaker,
Pudge,
Huskar: 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.
Tusk
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 15%)Centaur Warrunner
* Durable heroes can stand against Tusk during 1v1: Axe,
Dragon Knight,
Night Stalker,
Centaur Warrunner,
Wraith King and more.
Axe
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes that relies on armor or other type of physical damage negation are easy for Gyrocopter to take down during the early game with his magical damage: Axe,
Dragon Knight,
Sven.
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Centaur Warrunner
* Troll Warlord's high speed attack makes Retaliate deal a lot of damage to him.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 18%)Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who have low armor but very high health will be difficult for drow to burst down quickly: Primal Beast,
Axe,
Centaur Warrunner.
Visage
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 2%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with cleave or multi-target attacks can quickly take on Familiars and reduce Visage's firepower like Gyrocopter,
Kunkka,
Magnus and
Medusa.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (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.
Centaur Warrunner
* A good Centaur can catch Queen of Pain with a Blink Dagger and
Hoof Stomp.
* Retaliate with
Blade Mail reflects all of Queen of Pain's damage, especially Sonic Wave.
* Stampede grants a movement speed bonus, which can prevent Queen of Pain from initiating.
* Double Edge can shred her low health pool if she's not careful.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 4%)Gyrocopter
* Heroes with weaker mobility will struggle to keep up with Night Stalker: Gyrocopter,
Ursa,
Drow Ranger
Centaur Warrunner
* Night Stalker is all about right-clicks. His nuke,
Void is also not that threatning once you have
Hood of Defiance, your core item.
Undying
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 10%)Centaur Warrunner
* 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.
Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon rips through Tombstone's zombies.
Additional:
* Flak Cannon enables Gyrocopter to clear the zombies easily.
Arc Warden
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 5%)Gyrocopter
* Magnetic Field evades most of Gyrocopter's attacks.
Centaur Warrunner
* Arc Warden cannot take Centaur Warrunner very easily, and his nukes are not strong enough to deal with Centaur Warrunner.
* Centaur Warrunner deals huge AoE damage and applies an AoE disable through Hoof Stomp, affecting the double as well the main Arc Warden.
* Magnetic Field is not very effective against melee heroes. And to make things worse,
Magnetic Field also increases Arc Warden and his allies's attack speed, meaning Retaliate will deal more damage.
* Stampede catches Arc Warden easily due to his lack of escape mechanisms. However, Arc Warden can counter this problem with Gleipnir, which is a common item on Arc Warden.
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.

- Filtering by lane: off lane/safe lane/mid lane (lane data is parsed from hero guides dotabuff)
- Tips now include icons next to the heroes/spells/item names (just like on Dota 2 wiki)
- Added item suggestions
- Heroes now can be searched by their abbreviations: CM - Crystal Maiden, Kotl - Keeper Of The Light, AM - Anti Mage etc.

- Improved UX on small screens - when selecting heroes page automatically scrolls so hero select input is displayed at the very top of screen, leaving more space for results.
- importing picks from dotabuff/opendota URL or matchid
- sorting by personal win rate after logging via steam
- dota overlay(like Overwolf Dota Plus) that will automatically detect picks and bans this will also bring synergy and ban suggestion based on opponent recent games and most played/highest win rate heroes (but don't expect it soon).

Gyrocopter
*
Rage ignores all of Gyrocopter's magical attacks.
Feast helps Lifestealer out-damage Gyrocopter at close range.
*
Centaur Warrunner
*
Feast is an effective tool against Centaur Warrunner, who generally has high health and low armor, and compensates the reflected damage of Retaliate.
Rage can protect Lifestealer from Hoof Stomp, Double Edge, and Stampede.
Hoof Stomp's slow wind up can also be anticipated and negated with Rage.
Retaliate's damage return simply with Feast. Centaur's high strength gain and therefore big health pool makes him an ideal target to Feast on, especially in the late-game.
* If activated,
Additional:
* Centaur Warrunner's active abilities cannot pierce magic immunity.
* Lifestealer can offset
