Gyrocopter
* 
Blade Fury and 
Omnislash allows Juggernaut to avoid Gyrocopter's area attacks entirely.
Techies
* Juggernaut can trigger Proximity Mines while in Blade Fury, and can walk away from a initiation with Blast Off if Blade Fury is activated before the silence.
* Juggernaut ignores Reactive Tazer when he uses Omnislash, whether Techies used it to protect an ally or themselves.
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.
Techies
* Thanks to Counterspell's magic resistance, Anti-Mage has a good chance of surviving a Blast Off combo.
* Anti-Mage is a natural 
Manta Style carrier, meaning he can dispel the silence from Blast Off and blink away when Techies initiates on him.
Gyrocopter
* Heroes with weaker mobility will struggle to keep up with Night Stalker: 
Gyrocopter, 
Ursa, 
Drow Ranger
Techies
* 
Dark Ascension also allows Night Stalker to fly over Proximity Mines without triggering them.
* 
Crippling Fear is effective in stopping Techies from using Blast Off and 
Void is effective in stopping them from running to the safety of their mines.
Gyrocopter
* Any hero with a low HP pool is easy for Tinker to nuke down: 
Crystal Maiden, 
Enchantress, Gyrocopter, 
Lion, 
Riki, 
Techies,

Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high magical burst damage will kill Gyrocopter before he gets to do much: 
Lina, Lion, 
Zeus
Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, Drow Ranger, 
Magnus, 
Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.
Techies
* Aphotic Shield makes it less likely for allies to be killed by mines.
* Because they explode in very short intervals, a stack of 
Remote Mines will always trigger Borrowed Time, making them impossible to kill Abaddon unless his resistances are lowered enough or Abaddon is affected by Break.
* Abaddon can easily dispel the long-lasting root of 
Stasis Trap on himself and on an ally, while at the same also providing protection against the other mines' damage.
Additional:
* 
Borrowed Time's automatic activation will help Abaddon survive a field of Proximity Mines or a Blast Off combo. However, the damage from a single mine can kill him if his HP is low enough.
* 
Aphotic Shield's can easily break Techies' Etheral Blade combo.
Gyrocopter
* 
Guardian Angel negates most of Gyrocopter's physical АоЕ damage.
* 
Heavenly Grace dispels Homing Missile stun.
Techies
* Oracle can negate all of Techies' skills with Fate's Edict, as they are all magic damage. Fate's Edict can also be used to search and trigger 
Proximity Mines when crossing mined territory.
* Oracle can dispel 
Reactive Tazer off Techies, as well as the silence from 
Blast Off!, with Fortune's End.
* Oracle can further delay Techies' burst damage capability with False Promise.
Additional:
* 
Fate's Edict gives 100% magic resistance, which prevents most of Techies' damage.
* Oracle's 
Fortune's End dispels Reactive Tazer buff from Techies allowing him to be attacked. However, Reactive Tazer will instantly perform the area of effect disarm that is normally applied at the end of the duration.
* Fortune's End will also dispel Blast Off silence, Techies' Etheral Blade, Proximity Mines' magic resistance reduction, and Sticky Bomb's slow. However beware that it will only dispel Sticky Bomb's first or second instance of slow and not the damage, which will trigger as normal.
Gyrocopter
* 
Magnetic Field evades most of Gyrocopter's attacks.
Techies
* Wraith King's skeletons from 
Vampiric Spirit keeps the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
* Wraith King is not afraid to go into a field of Proximity Mines, wherever he goes as long as 
Reincarnation is off cooldown .
Additional:
* Wraith King is not afraid to walk into mines, whenever he goes with his Reincarnation ready.
Gyrocopter
* 
Laguna Blade ends Gyrocopter very quickly in the early to mid game.
Techies
* Shadow Demon's spammable illusions can be used to scout Techies' Proximity Mines.
Techies
* 
Corrosive Skin will protect Viper from Techies' magical damage.
* Even though Reactive Tazer will disarm Viper if he attacks Techies with 
Poison Attack, he does lots of damage with his other abilities that can still kill Techies.
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.
Techies
* 
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.
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.
Gyrocopter
* Timbersaw is often too mobile and durable for Gyrocopter to bring down with his area attacks.
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.
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.
Techies
* He can send wolves to defuse Proximity Mines, and he can catch up Techies and kill him before they can deny themselves. Even if the suicide is successful, Lycan can still survive because of his tankiness.
Techies
* Techies spends lots of time standing still planting stacks of 
Land Mines away from creep waves.
* Sacred Arrow can be used to scout hidden Land Mines among trees and at uphill places. It can also be used to catch Techies while he's planting them.
* If Techies is hit with a Sacred Arrow, he can be killed before he has a chance to use Blast Off!.
* Mirana has a high attack range to destroy his traps from a safe distance.
Techies
* Plague Wards may reveal a hiding Techies. If there's a sentry nearby, they may also reveal a stack of mines hidden in a juking spot.
Techies
* As long as Batrider is under the effect of Firefly, he can safely fly over Proximity Mines (He does not receive vision over the mines).
Techies
* Slow heroes that have a hard time escaping the Echo Stomp radius: Crystal Maiden, 
Pudge, Techies.
Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high mobility will be able to avoid Gyrocopter's area attacks: 
Storm Spirit, 
Morphling, 
Ember Spirit
Techies
* Heroes with low health will die easily during Duels, and can be farmed for damage in the early game: Crystal Maiden, 
Lich, Techies, 
Rubick
Techies
* Heroes with summons like 
Broodmother, 
Enigma, 
Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like 
Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.

Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, Drow Ranger, Magnus, Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.
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.
Gyrocopter
* Heroes who rely on burst damage with magical damage will struggle to kill Primal Beast: 
Spirit Breaker, Gyrocopter, 
Leshrac
Gyrocopter

Gyrocopter
* Heroes with summons that are destroyed by a fixed number of attacks: 
Undying's 
Tombstone, Gyrocopter's 
Homing Missile, and Zeus's 
Nimbus.
Techies
* Familiars can fly over the mines, rendering them safe from damage of Techies's mines. Visage can also use Familiars to check for mines on the map.
* Techies's low attack speed and damage will give them a hard time in destroying Visage's Familiars, and that can become even worse if they are affected by 
Grave Chill.
* 
Gravekeeper's Cloak allows Visage to survive Damage from Techies's mines.
Gyrocopter
* Heroes with cleave or multi-target attacks can quickly take on Familiars and reduce Visage's firepower like Gyrocopter, 
Kunkka, Magnus and 
Medusa.
Techies
* 
Refraction can be very useful in safely neutralizing Proximity Mine fields, or absorbing Techies' Blast Off combo.
Gyrocopter
* Weak damage but high tick rate or persist in a long time: Slark, Gyrocopter, 
Queen of Pain, 
Shadow Shaman (
Shackles), 
Jakiro, 
Pugna, 
Doom
* 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, Doom
Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon destroys Chaos Knight's illusions very quickly.
Techies
* Techies has great area of effect damage to deal with 
Phantasm illusions.

Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon destroys Terrorblade's illusions very quickly.
Techies
* Techies deals lots of magical damage with Sticky Bomb, Blast Off! and Proximity Mines that bypasses Terrorblade's high armor and can punish his low max life.
* Sticky Bomb is easy to land on a large clump of Terrorblade illusions and will damage and slow Terrorblade and all of his illusions if he can't quickly move the right one away.
* Reactive Tazer upgraded with 
Aghanim's Scepter can be used to protect an ally getting attacked by Terrorblade. Further, it disarms all of his illusions even while he has activated Black King Bar, greatly decreasing his damage.
* Blast Off! stuns Terrorblade, preventing him from casting 
Sunder.
Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high physical and magical damage alike are a huge hazard for Muerta, as they can deal serious damage to her even if she has 
Pierce the Veil active: 
Luna, Lina, 
Tusk, Broodmother, Shadow Fiend, Ember Spirit, Gyrocopter, 
Vengeful Spirit, 
Arc Warden, Medusa, Shadow Shaman.

Techies
* Heroes that provide vision will see Fiend's Gate coming: Techies, 
Templar Assassin, 
Treant Protector.
Techies
* Techies can easily catch Chen off guard and kill him quickly with Blast Off! and 
Ethereal Blade combo, especially because Blast Off! can silence Chen and stun him when upgraded with Aghanim's Shard.
* However, Chen's converted creeps can trigger Proximity Mines, wasting them.
Techies
* Proximity Mines can be placed near trees to detect Monkey King.
* Follow up with Blast Off! to destroy the tree, causing Monkey King to take high damage, fall from the tree, and become stunned.
Additional:
* Techies can turn his tree jumping ability against him, by placing Proximity Mines that will detect him near trees, and then destroying the trees around him with Blast Off, stunning him and dealing high damage, on top of him being silenced when the stun expires.
* Monkey King's mobility is also severely limited around Techies' mines as he will almost always trigger them due to the cooldown time between tree jumps. Monkey King will be forced to take mine damage or escape with 
Primal Spring.
Techies
* After using Snowball, Tusk can't control where he's going, allowing Techies to make him roll onto mines.
Techies
* Remote Mines are frequently placed in trees, and can thus kill an unwary Hoodwink should she 
Scurry away due to her low HP pool.
* Blast Off! can clear out trees, denying the tactical advantages from Scurry.
Gyrocopter
* Homing Missile can be used to cancel escape attempts with 
Relocate.
* 
Flak Cannon allows Gyrocopter to attack both, Io and his 
Tethered target, especially when upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter.

* Techies does huge amounts of magical damage, which will bypass 
Untouchable.
* Enchantress depends on abilities to do damage and heal, which Blast Off's silence prevents.
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.
Techies
* Techies is very good against roaming supports and gankers such as 
Bounty Hunter, Riki, Weaver, Earthshaker, 
Nyx Assassin, etc. that are constantly moving around the map.
Techies
* Some abilities deals damage from an independent source and not from the hero itself, so Nyx cannot counter them with Spiked Carapace: illusions or summoning units, Homing Missile, Nimbus, 
Mass Serpent Ward, 
Death Ward and especially Techies's mines.

Gyrocopter
* Heroes with high mobility will be able to avoid Gyrocopter's area attacks: Storm Spirit, Morphling, Ember Spirit
Techies
* Morphling usually has low max health due to shifting strength into agility, which combined with Blast Off's silence will prevent him from using 
Waveform and 
Adaptive Strike (Strength), leaving him defenseless and making him an easy target to burst down.
Techies
* Illusions can be sent out to destroy Techies mines.
Gyrocopter
* Flak Cannon destroys Phantom Lancer's illusions very quickly.

* If Storm Spirit isn't careful, he could fall into a trap set by Techies and another hero acting as bait.
* Stasis Trap roots Storm Spirit for 2/3/4/5 seconds and Blast Off! silences for 4/5/6/7 seconds, which effectively prevents Storm Spirit from using 
Ball Lightning to escape for a lengthy duration.
Gyrocopter
*
Rage ignores all of Gyrocopter's magical attacks.
Feast helps Lifestealer out-damage Gyrocopter at close range.
*
Techies
* Rage protects Lifestealer from all of Techies's abilities.
Reactive Tazer's disarm will also not work on Lifestealer under Rage.
