Kunkka
* Rubick can steal abilities from Kunkka (except Tidebringer) with 
Spell Steal. Since build Aghanim's Scepter, Rubick's make two steal abilities from Kunkka when the spot is right.
Additional:
* 
Kunkka is a strong teamfighter with his powerful control spells, which Rubick could exploit to his advantage.
* 
Torrent provides another source of damage and crowd control.
* 
Ghostship is a powerful teamfight spell, providing huge magical damage to enemies and buffing allies with damage negation.
* Both skills works the best when comboed with other source of control from allies, such as 
Duel or 
Beserker's Call.
* 
Telekinesis can reposition an enemy onto a Torrent or Ghostship.
* 
Torrent Storm works as a disruptive spell for Rubick to create chaos around him.
* 
Tidal Wave offers another source of control and repositioning.
* As long as Kunkka gains these spells with 
Aghanim's Shard and 
Aghanim's Scepter, 
Rubick does not need extra items to steal these spells.
* 
X Marks the Spot serves as a utility spell for escaping, chasing and other useful functions.
Luna
* Telekinesis allows Rubick and his team to coordinate a gank on Luna early on. And just like Aghanim's Shard upgraded 
Dismember, Aghanim's Shard upgraded Telekinesis can also allow Rubick to save an allied hero from being killed by Eclipse.
* 
Fade Bolt allows Rubick to harass Luna on lane and weaken her attack damage early on.
* Both, 
Lucent Beam and 
Eclipse are very useful for Rubick to steal with Spell Steal, Luna's only way to counter this is with 
Lunar Orbit. Rubick can also use them from further distances than Luna thanks to 
Arcane Supremacy that increases his cast range and when he gets Aghanim's Scepter.
Additional:
* Lucent Beam is a solid magic nuke with a stun.
* Aghanim's Shard upgraded Lucent Beam gives Rubick bonus damage whenever he uses it
* Eclipse can output massive damage if casted by Rubick.
* Rubick has a good chance to steal Eclipse since 
Luna has only two cast abilities.
* Aghanim's Scepter greatly increase the effectiveness of the ability, with more damage as well as extended cast range.
* For the same reasons, Rubick also makes a good ally for Luna when they are in the same team.
Kunkka
* 
Astral Imprisonment can allow Outworld Destroyer to save himself or allies from Kunkka's full kit.
* 
Sanity's Eclipse deal a large amount of damage, as Kunkka's mana pool is much smaller than Outworld Destroyer's.
* 
Arcane Orb deals pure damage, shredding through Kunkka and his team even with Ghostship's buff.
Luna
* Every hero that can withstand or prevent Eclipse at level 7: 
Juggernaut, 
Riki, 
Clockwerk, 
Drow Ranger, 
Abaddon, 
Faceless Void, 
Weaver, 
Outworld Destroyer.
Kunkka
* Ursa's massive physical damage can destroy Kunkka quickly.
* 
Enrage can be activated before being hit by Ghostship to prevent most of the damage.
* 
Earthshock slows Kunkka's movement speed. With no escape abilities, Kunkka is easy prey.
Luna
* All assassin-type carries in a one against one situation: 
Meepo, 
Phantom Assassin, Riki, 
Ursa. Luna's only chances are that she buys 
Ethereal Blade or 
Black King Bar to gain a slight edge against them, or both items if necessary.
Kunkka
* With his 
Take Aim, Sniper can simply sit out of your ability range and deal massive damage if not killed first.
* 
Assassinate can target allies who are still alive with low health because of Ghostship's buff.
* 
Headshot makes it harder for Kunkka to position/escape and makes it hard for Kunkka to hit with Tidebringer.
Luna
* Heroes that outrange Luna can be a problem for her: Drow Ranger, 
Sniper.
Kunkka
* Since Tidebringer has a 4 second cooldown, Kunkka has little availability to manfight Huskar.
Luna
* Despite Ancient Apparition's fragileness, he can easily harass Luna on lane with 
Chilling Touch due to it's high range and damage. This can get even worse if Ancient Apparition buys Aghanim's Scepter and combines it with items that can give him bonus attack damage and attack speed.
* Chilling Touch combined with 
Ice Vortex can make it difficult for Luna to escape from 
Cold Feet
* 
Ice Blast can nullify any healing Luna receives and any attempt for her to save herself with 
Satanic, even through Black King Bar.
* For the same reasons, Ancient Apparition makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.
Kunkka
* 
Supernova negates Kunkka's combo entirely, as it can't be affected by spells while using Supernova.
* 
Icarus Dive also allows Phoenix to dodge Ghostship and Torrent.
Kunkka
* Kunkka relies on his powerful AOE spells to turn the tides of teamfights. He cannot use them while silenced.
* 
Last Word can mess up Kunkka's ability synergy, silencing him in the middle of his strong combo.
* 
Global Silence can disable Kunkka's spell casting from anywhere on the map, even if Kunkka is spell immune at the time.
Luna
* Should Luna choose to buy 
Manta Style, Medusa will be able to kill illusions from them with 
Split Shot and 
Mjollnir, which is a common item on Medusa.
* 
Mystic Snake allows Medusa to easily harass Luna and steal mana from her, preventing Luna from retaliating with Lucent Beam.
* Medusa can survive Eclipse thanks to 
Mana Shield, which can cause Luna to struggle greatly in bursting down Medusa and force her to buy 
Diffusal Blade and it's upgrade 
Disperser.
* Even with Black King Bar, Medusa's 
Stone Gaze will still be able to disable Luna, which could even discourage her from counter-initiating with Eclipse.

* Mystic Snake allows Medusa to easily harass Luna and steal mana from her, preventing Luna from retaliating with Lucent Beam.
* Medusa can survive Eclipse thanks to Mana Shield, and since Luna is not a hero that often goes for Diffusal Blade, she will struggle greatly in bursting down Medusa.
* Even with Black King Bar, Medusa's Stone Gaze will still be able to disable Luna, which could even discourage her from counter-initiating with Eclipse.
* For the same reasons, Medusa makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.
Kunkka
* Clinkz's high damage output and insane attack speed late-game can take Kunkka out of the fight before it begins.
* 
Burning Barrage and 
Searing Arrows together can kill allies easily even under Ghostship's buff.
* 
Skeleton Walk can allow Clinkz to make a quick escape after Kunkka's combo, or even avoid it all together.
Luna
* Even though Luna can easily kill Jakiro in few strikes, he can also do the same to her is she is not careful.
* 
Dual Breath and 
Liquid Fire allow Jakiro to harass Luna more efficiently than she can harass Jakiro with her Lucent Beam.
* Jakiro can save his allies from Luna during her attempts to use Eclipse by casting 
Ice Path on Luna.
* Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Macropyre can deal pure damage-over-time and pierce spell immunity, which can make it very hard for Luna to be in teamfights without suffering too many damage.
* For the same reasons, Jakiro makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.

Kunkka
* Similarly, they can negate your X Marks The Spot & Torrent combo by protecting your target when you use Return. Good candidates to negate your combo include Outworld Destroyer and his Astral Imprisonment, and 
Shadow Demon and his 
Disruption.
* Heroes with hide abilities can often dodge a Ghostship just before it hits.
* Similarly, they can negate your X Marks The Spot & Torrent combo by protecting your target when you use Return. Good candidates to negate your combo include Outworld Destroyer and his Astral Imprisonment, and Shadow Demon and his Disruption.
* A 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity can also do the trick, but, unlike the previously mentioned abilities, you can only use it on yourself and not your allies.
Luna
* 
Demonic Purge takes off Luna's superior mobility, removing the need for chasing her and allowing your team to reposition in team fights or escape when at low HP. If Shadow Demon has Aghanim's Scepter it will also take away glaive bounces and extra damage from Luna's passive. And Luna's commonly items Manta Style and Black King Bar does not work dispell to Demonic Purge
* Luna's illusions created by Disruption are very valuable with their 
Moon Glaives. These will effectively counter her pushing attempts and are painfully effective in team fights.
* Disruption can be used to save an ally from Eclipse.
* For the same reasons, Shadow Demon makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.

* For the same reasons, Shadow Demon is a very good ally for Luna when they are in the same team.
Luna
* Illusions and summons are double-edge sword type of matchup for Luna. On one hand, they can tank damage from Eclipse, but on the other hand, she can easily clear them before Eclipse with Moon Glaives. Examples include 
Spectre, Shadow Demon, 
Phantom Lancer, 
Naga Siren, 
Chaos Knight, 
Terrorblade) or bring other units into the fight (such as 
Nature's Prophet, 
Lone Druid, 
Chen, 
Enchantress, Meepo and 
Arc Warden).
Luna
* Lina has very high magic burst damage to use against the low-health-pool Luna. 
Laguna Blade can also be upgraded with Laguna Blade damage is Pure and pierces Spell Immunity to bypass Black King Bar, making Lina even more of a threat. Luna however, can easily counter this problem with 
Linken's Sphere, which is a common item for her.
* For the same reasons, Lina makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.
Luna
* Every hero that can withstand or prevent Eclipse at level 7: Juggernaut, Riki, Clockwerk, Drow Ranger, Abaddon, Faceless Void, Weaver, Outworld Destroyer.
Kunkka
* 
Leap allows Mirana to easily escape Torrent and Ghostship.
Luna
* 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.
Luna
* Even though Luna is the kind of hero that Mirana can handle due to 
Moonlight Shadow rendering her safe from Eclipse with Moonlight Shadow, smart Luna can buy 
Dust of Appearance, allowing her to provide vision on her to her team, and possibly, kill Mirana.
* Luna's high movement speed allows her to evade 
Sacred Arrow, giving Mirana difficulties in hitting her with it.
* Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse combined with Dust of Appearance allows Luna to cast it on a hero that is struck by Sacred Arrow and/or after Mirana jumps in with Leap.

Luna
* Heroes with damage-over-time abilities easily allow Bristleback to turn his back in order to proc 
Bristleback continuously and to massively reduce to damage dealt to him: Arc Warden, 
Venomancer, Luna.
Additional:
* 
Quill Spray and Bristleback harass Luna more efficiently than she does with Lucent Beam.
* Bristleback helps return a lot of damage to Luna’s team if she uses her nukes on him and he has his back to her, and her only way to counter this is by buying 
Silver Edge.
* 
Viscous Nasal Goo and 
Warpath are enough to outrun a speedy Luna.
* Bristleback tends to be a frequent carrier of 
Crimson Guard and 
Eternal Shroud, which are good protection from Moon Glaives and Eclipse.
* For the same reasons, Bristleback makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.

Luna
* Hard-hitters who relies mostly on raw stats or good passive and therefore make a perfect target for 
Dark Portrait: Naga Siren, Faceless Void, Terrorblade, Luna, 
Anti-Mage
Luna
* Escape-type carries: 
Slark, 
Storm Spirit, Weaver.
Kunkka
* 
Treant Protector's 
Living Armor will also negate Tidebringer's damage.
Luna
* A couple of nukers and disablers on the same lane can finish a squishy Luna efficiently despite a teammate's assistance: 
Sven + 
Shadow Shaman.
Luna
* Heroes that can keep Luna locked down for a long time can be a threat (she is very item and spell dependent): Faceless Void, 
Legion Commander, 
Doom.
Luna
* Zeus's highly damaging nuke spells with low cooldowns is not something Luna can go against, though Luna can win against Zeus in late game.
* 
Thundergod's Wrath can be used before a fight to harm Luna before she activates Black King Bar, reducing her survivability for that fight.
* For the same reasons, Zeus makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.
Kunkka
* Heroes with long range abilities are also able to touch Zeus, such as Clockwerk, Kunkka, 
Puck, 
Skywrath Mage, 
Spirit Breaker, 
Tusk and others.
Luna
* 
Shadow Dance prevents Luna from damaging Slark, and together with Silver Edge he can easily chase her or escape from her.
* Luna has no way to escape from 
Pounce's leash, which is especially bad as she is not used to buying 
Wind Waker, which is the only way to escape from Pounce outside of Black King Bar.
* For the same reasons, Slark makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.
Additional:
* Luna's lack of mobility and escape abilities makes her easily to gank for Slark.
* Shadow Dance helps avoid all the damage from Eclipse.
* For the same reasons, Slark makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.
Luna
* With Dust of Appearance, Luna will be able to use Eclipse on invisible heroes. Be mindful that Slark is exception because he'll be able to remove the debuff with 
Dark Pact.
Luna
* Even with Black King Bar, Pudge's 
Meat Hook and Dismember can still disable Luna for a fairly long time.
* Many stacks of 
Flesh Heap will make it difficult for Luna to burst down Pudge with Eclipse. Aghanim's Shard upgraded Dismember can also allow Pudge to save an allied hero from being killed by Eclipse.
* Bear in mind, however, that Luna can cancel Dismember if some of her allies are targets. Which may force Pudge to buy Black King Bar earlier.
Luna
* Luna can easily cancel channeling spells with Lucent Beam and 0.25s Eclipse Lucent Ministun talent for Eclipse, she can also buy 
Abyssal Blade in case they decide to buy Black King Bar: 
Enigma's 
Black Hole, 
Witch Doctor's 
Death Ward, Shadow Shaman's 
Shackles, 
Lion's 
Mana Drain, 
Bane's 
Fiend's Grip, 
Pudge's Dismember, 
Crystal Maiden's 
Freezing Field, 
Pugna's 
Life Drain, 
Dawnbreaker's 
Solar Guardian, and Naga Siren's 
Reel In from Aghanim's Scepter.
Kunkka
* Timbersaw Defeats Kunkka on the center line, due to the fact that he has a huge resistance to physical damage by 
Reactive Armor, which is why 
Tidebringer almost does not break through Timbersaw, and due to 
Whirling Death Timbersaw can very much break through Kunkka and force him to leave the line, or spend money on 
Tango.
Additional:
* Timbersaw easily beats Kunkka on the midlane, due to the fact that he has huge physical damage resistance from Reactive Armor, which is why Tidebringer almost does not break through Timbersaw, and due to Whirling Death and Kunkka being a strength hero, Timbersaw can very much break through Kunkka and force him to leave the lane, or spend money on Tango.
Luna
* Heroes who are melee but cannot fight back against Eclipse will really struggle with Luna: 
Monkey King, 
Alchemist, 
Timbersaw.
Kunkka
* X Marks the Spot will return Underlord or his teammate if they escape with 
Fiend's Gate.
* Torrent, Ghostship, Torrent Storm from Aghanim's Scepter and Tidal Wave from Aghanim's Shard are all excellent abilities for intercepting Underlord and his team if Underlord chooses to travel to the designated point of the map with Fiend's Gate.
Luna
* 
Lunar Blessing gives allies bonus damage and armor required to endure against Atrophy Aura early on.
* Eclipse can be devastating for Underlord's team when they're grouped up for Fiend's Gate, it can also be used to intercept arrivals with Fiend's Gate. And Pit of Malice does not prevent Luna to use it.
* To make things even better, Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse can finish off Underlord or any of his teammates escape attempts with Fiend's Gate if timed correctly.
Additional:
* Lunar Blessing gives allies bonus damage required to endure against 
Atrophy Aura in most stages of the game.

Kunkka
* Ghostship helps your team soak up damage from 
Sonic Wave and 
Scream of Pain.
* 
Queen of Pain can't escape easily from X Marks the Spot - Torrent combo.
* Outlanes Queen of Pain on the midline, due to the fact that Queen of Pain has a small reserve of health at the beginning of the game, and she suffers very much from Tidebringer, which is why she is forced to either spend money on Tango, or skip creeps and run for bounty runes, and Kunkka at this time will gain an advantage in level and gold.

* Kunkka will catch her in X Marks the Spot and allow his team to kill her for stun from Torrent, because Queen of Pain has no way to avoid the cross X Marks the Spot before buying Black King Bar.
Luna
* Aggressively blinking is not going to end well against Luna, because Queen of Pain will be an easy target for Lucent Beam & Eclipse.
* Queen of Pain's HP is abysmal, so Luna can quickly kill Queen of Pain as soon as she initiates with Blink.
Additional:
* Aggressively blinking is not going to end well against Luna, because Queen of Pain will be an easy target for Lucent Beam & Eclipse.
* Queen of Pain's HP is abysmal, so Luna can quickly kill Queen of Pain as soon as she initiates with Blink.
Kunkka
* The slow from Torrent makes Crystal Maiden's already bad movement speed even worse.
* Kunkka has many tools to interrupt Freezing Field (most notably Torrent, Ghostship and Torrent Storm from Aghanim's Scepter), as she is an easy target while channeling it.
* It is worth noting that most of Kunkka's abilities do not pierce through spell immunity, so purchasing a Black King Bar might help Crystal Maiden in this regard.
Luna
* Lucent Beam allows Luna to easily cancel Freezing Field.
* Without Black King Bar protection, Lucent Beam and Eclipse can make a short work out of Crystal Maiden's abysmal health.
* Skilled Luna will always buy Dust of Appearance, allowing her team to have a vision on Crystal Maiden while invisible and during channeling Freezing Field.
* Even with Black King Bar, Luna can still inflict considerable damage on Crystal Maiden with her attacks, which get empowered with Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing, also smart and skilled Luna will buy Abyssal Blade to cancel Freezing Field even through Black King Bar in case of emergency. And since Crystal Maiden rarely buys Linken's Sphere, this can be a very big problem for her.

Forcing Crystal Maiden to buy Linken's Sphere.
Kunkka
* X Marks the Spot negates Stampede.
Luna
* 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.

Kunkka
* Windranger can't escape 
Windrun X Marks the Spot with combo Torrent or Ghostship trap.
Luna
* Moon Glaives can ignore certain abilities that either trigger on attack or give evasion under the condition that the heroes who have them are not primary targets. Examples include: 
Centaur Warrunner, 
Windranger, Phantom Assassin, 
Hoodwink etc.
Kunkka
* Any hero who can counter-initiate in anticipation without getting caught in Reverse Polarity: Sven, 
Omniknight, Enigma, Luna, Naga Siren, 
Mars, 
Jakiro, Venomancer, 
Elder Titan, Faceless Void, Rubick, 
Keeper of the Light, Pugna, 
Invoker, Spectre, Alchemist, Treant Protector, Lina, 
Oracle, 
Zeus, Shadow Shaman, 
Phoenix, 
Razor, 
Huskar, 
Batrider, Kunkka, 
Tidehunter, 
Wraith King, 
Sand King, 
Medusa, Dawnbreaker.
Luna
* If Luna can use Eclipse in anticipation, Magnus will be killed before he can even manages to cast 
Reverse Polarity.
* Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse is a very good counter-initiation tool against Magnus when he casts Reverse Polarity, granted as long as Luna can cast it from safe distance.
Kunkka
* Heroes that punish mobile heroes: 
Bloodseeker, Keeper of the Light, Kunkka, 
Disruptor.
Luna
* If Luna chooses to use Eclipse in anticipation right before Spirit Breaker gets to her with Charge of Darkness, she will be able to kill Spirit Breaker before he will be able to kill her as Spirit Breaker's attack speed is rather low.
* Meanwhile, when Spirit Breaker is focusing on any of Luna's allies with Charge of Darkness, Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse can be used to counter-initate against Spirit Breaker.
* Aghanim's Shard upgraded Moon Glaives allows Luna to reduce damage from Greater Bash and Nether Strike inflicts on her, and damage Spirit Breaker whenever he is close to her, even while he is invisible.
* Lucent Beam can be used to cancel Spirit Breaker's Charge of Darkness under the condition that Luna is able to cast it on time. Lucent Beam can also be used to cancel Nether Strike. But bear in mind, however, that Spirit Breaker can counter this with 
Planar Pocket from Aghanim's Shard which can be used to reflect Lucent Beam back at Luna.
* If Luna buys Linken's Sphere, it will become nearly impossible for Spirit Breaker to reach Luna unless some of Spirit Breaker's allies can pop it and put it on a cooldown.
* Even though Spirit Breaker can evade all of Luna's abilities with 
Shadow Blade, smart Luna will always buy Dust of Appearance to provide vision on Spirit Breaker to her and her team. Luna can also buy 
Gleipnir to counter Spirit Breaker's Charge of Darkness and Shadow Blade combo.

Kunkka
* Tidebringer will deal lots of damage to Alchemist before he builds physical survivability items.
* Torrent and X Marks the Spot can control Alchemist at all stages of the game before he has Black King Bar.
* Ghostship's rum buff will greatly reduce the Alchemist's damage output in teamfights including his Radiance.
Luna
* Heroes who are melee but cannot fight back against Eclipse will really struggle with Luna: Monkey King, Alchemist, Timbersaw.
Kunkka
* Kunkka can bring Anti-Mage back with X Marks the Spot, effectively negating Blink or forcing him to wait out the debuff before Blinking.
Luna
* Although Anti-Mage can survive Luna's magical damage output with 
Counterspell, Luna's physical damage from Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing can be fair enough to deal with him.
* Reckless use of 
Blink will allow Luna Eclipse can finish off Anti-Mage from early-to-mid stages of the game until Anti-Mage gets Manta Style, Aghanim's Scepter that will give him access to 
Blink Fragment and Aghanim's Shard which will allow Counterspell to weaken enemy spell damage.
* However, Luna needs to finish the match as quickly as possible, because Anti-Mage is a hero who has a big advantage in longer matches once he farms items he needs for teamfights.
Kunkka
* Similarly, heroes with low cooldown teleports can be afraid to split push against X Marks the Spot, such as 
Tinker and Nature's Prophet.
* In general, highly mobile heroes like 
Earth Spirit or Storm Spirit are at a disadvantage against X Marks the Spot.
* Similarly, heroes with low cooldown teleports can be afraid to split push against X Marks the Spot, such as Tinker and Nature's Prophet.
Additional:
* X Marks the Spot can be used to prevent Tinker from escape with Blink Dagger or 
Keen Conveyance, discourage him from snapping farm and snapping gank. However, in later game, it'll be much more difficult because Tinker can buy Black King Bar or Linken's Sphere to prevent Kunkka from placing X on him, or Eul's Scepter of Divinity to prevent the recall.
Luna
* Even though Luna has a hard time laning against Tinker because of 
Heat-Seeking Missile and 
Laser, she can win against him in late game once she buys Black King Bar, as none of Tinker's spells can bypass spell immunity.
* Lucent Beam and 0.25 Eclipse Lucent Mini-stun talent for Eclipse can be used to cancel 
Rearm and prevent Tinker's escape attempts with 
Boots of Travel. Luna can also use Lucent Beam and Eclipse if she is blinded with Laser.
* An ill-timed and ill-positioned Blink Dagger will make Tinker a very easy target for Luna's Eclipse that can quickly tear him to shreds. This can get even better if Luna buys Aghanim's Scepter and combines it with 0.25 Eclipse Lucent Mini-stun talent for Eclipse.
* However, Luna needs to approach Tinker carefully, as Tinker is a natural 
Scythe of Vyse wielder, and if he gets a jump on Luna first, he will be able to use it to disable and burst down Luna before she can use Black King Bar, Lucent Beam or Eclipse.
Additional:
* Even though Luna has a hard time laning against Tinker because of Heat-Seeking Missile and Laser, she can win against him in late game once she buys Black King Bar, as none of Tinker's spells can bypass spell immunity.

* An ill-timed and ill-positioned Blink Dagger will make Tinker a very easy target for Luna's Eclipse that can quickly tear him to shreds. This can get even better if Luna buys Aghanim's Scepter and combines it with 0.25 Eclipse Lucent Mini-stun talent for Eclipse.
* However, Luna needs to approach Tinker carefully, as Tinker is a natural Scythe of Vyse wielder, and if he gets a jump on Luna first, he will be able to use it to disable and burst down Luna before she can use Black King Bar, Lucent Beam or Eclipse.
Kunkka
* Heroes with cleave or multi-target attacks can quickly take on Familiars and reduce Visage's firepower like 
Gyrocopter, Kunkka, 
Magnus and Medusa.
Luna
* Moon Glaives is very effective against Visage because not only it can easily destroy Visage's Familiars, but can also remove one instance of Gravekeeper's Cloak upon each hit to Visage, leaving him susceptible to damage.
* Once Visage's Familiars are picked off and all instances of Gravekeeper's Cloak are removed, Luna will be able to easily kill Visage with Eclipse.

Kunkka
* Heroes that can negate Hoodwink's mobility: Kunkka, Disruptor, Mars.
Luna
* Moon Glaives can ignore certain abilities that either trigger on attack or give evasion under the condition that the heroes who have them are not primary targets. Examples include: Centaur Warrunner, Windranger, Phantom Assassin, Hoodwink etc.
Kunkka
* Heroes with long channeling abilities like Witch Doctor are easy targets for Kunkka to interrupt in team fights.
Additional:
* Torrent can cancel Death Ward from a far distance.
Luna
* Luna can easily cancel channeling spells with Lucent Beam and 0.25s Eclipse Lucent Ministun talent for Eclipse, she can also buy Abyssal Blade in case they decide to buy Black King Bar: Enigma's Black Hole, Witch Doctor's Death Ward, Shadow Shaman's Shackles, Lion's Mana Drain, Bane's Fiend's Grip, Pudge's Dismember, Crystal Maiden's Freezing Field, Pugna's Life Drain, Dawnbreaker's Solar Guardian, and Naga Siren's Reel In from Aghanim's Scepter.

However, in many cases Moon Glaives can resolve this issue and eliminate them before activating Eclipse, but that will require lots of farming for right-click items.
Kunkka
* Heroes with strong area-of-effect damage can make quick work of Chen's converted creeps and at same time gain farm: Magnus, Jakiro, 
Shadow Fiend, Kunkka, Luna, 
Dragon Knight, Medusa, Alchemist.
Luna
* Luna's Moon Glaives combined with Lunar Blessing can easily kill Chen's creeps.
* Eclipse can be used after Luna clears all of Chen's creeps to easily kill Chen or any of his allies before he can save them with 
Hand of God. This can get even worse if Luna buys Aghanim's Scepter. And Chen is not a hero that likes to buy Black King Bar to counter this problem.

* Luna's high movement speed can make it difficult for Muerta to hit her with 
Dead Shot and keep her trapped in 
The Calling.
* 
Pierce the Veil will not save Muerta from Luna at all. Instead, it will sentence her to death as it will amplify the magical damage from both, Lucent Beam and Eclipse, potentially turning Muerta's most powerful ability against her. Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse can also be used to counter-initiate against Muerta.
* Luna can use Aghanim's Shard upgraded Moon Glaives to reduce all the damage Muerta inflicts on Luna while also damaging Muerta if she is too close to Luna. Bear in mind, however, Aghanim's Shard upgraded Moon Glaives cannot damage Muerta while she is under effects of Pierce the Veil.
* As Luna naturally buys Black King Bar, she will be able to defend herself from Muerta's abilities. Luna can also buy 
Revenant's Brooch to attack Muerta even through Pierce the Veil.

Examples include Spectre, Shadow Demon, Phantom Lancer, Naga Siren, Chaos Knight, Terrorblade) or bring other units into the fight (such as Nature's Prophet, Lone Druid, Chen, Enchantress, Meepo and Arc Warden).
Luna
* Lucent Beam and Eclipse with ministun talent can be used to cancel Requiem of Souls if Shadow Fiend does not have Black King Bar. Likewise, since Shadow Fiend is prone to buying Blink Dagger, an ill-timed Blink Dagger can give Luna a free chance to counter-initiate with Eclipse.
* Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing allow Luna to outfarm Shadow Fiend in lane and the high physical damage output they provide her can also help her deal with Shadow Fiend even when he buys Black King Bar in late game.
* A well timed Eclipse will burst and kill Shadow Fiend before he even either initiates or gets a chance to retaliate, especially when equipped with Aghanim's Scepter and Ethereal Blade, this could become even worse for Shadow Fiend if he does not have Black King Bar. But bear in mind however, that smart and skilled Shadow Fiend can buy Wind Waker to counter this issue.

Luna
* Luna's Eclipse can be used for counter-attacks and interception against gap-closing heroes who use their blinking abilities without protection or who recklessly jump on her, provided that Luna is able to cast it in time. Examples include: Queen of Pain, Riki, Phantom Assassin, Faceless Void and pretty much any hero who relies on Blink Dagger to close the gap.

Decrepify can be suicide against Luna due to Lucent Beam and Eclipse.
* 
Nether Ward is rather weak against Luna because unlike other heroes who rely on magical damage to damage or kill enemies, yet their ablities have very high mana costs, Luna does not have abilities that cost a lot of mana and Luna mostly uses her abilities to initiate a teamfight or to finish off fleeing enemy heroes.
* Luna is a common Black King Bar carrier, which allows her to protect herself against Pugna's only-magical damage output.

Luna
* Without Black King Bar, Luna will be able to cancel Enigma's Black Hole from safe distance with her Lucent Beam or with 0.25s Eclipse Lucent Ministun talent for Eclipse and counter-initiate with Eclipse. This can get even worse for Enigma once Luna gets Aghanim's Scepter and combines it with 0.25s Eclipse Lucent Ministun talent that will allow Luna to use Eclipse from safe distance.
* If Luna chooses to use Eclipse in anticipation right after Enigma jumps in with Blink Dagger, she will be able to kill Enigma before he even gets a chance to use Black Hole. Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse can be used to counter-initiate against Enigma from safe distance if he has no Black King Bar available to use.
* Luna commonly buys Satanic, which can help her recover from Enigma's Black Hole in case she survives it.

Luna
* Even though Nyx Assassin can easily kill Luna with his high burst damage, Luna can also do the same to him if he is not careful.
* Lucent Beam can deal a fair amount of damage to Nyx Assassin if he has no 
Spiked Carapace available to use. Although Luna should be patient using Lucent Beam on Nyx Assassin when he uses Spiked Carapace.

Luna
* 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.

* 
Doppelganger can be used to dodge a number of Lucent Beams during Eclipse.
* Phantom Lancer can chase Luna effectively regardless of her high movement speed thanks to 
Phantom Rush and 
Spirit Lance.
* Luna's low health pool is easily exploited by the sheer damage output from Phantom Lancer's illusions. Additionally, Phantom Lancer can often create more illusions for Luna to handle.
Kunkka

Kunkka
* Heroes who are strong against mobile heroes: Disruptor, Bloodseeker, Kunkka, Keeper of the Light.
Luna
* Illusion heroes like the aforementioned Phantom Lancer or Naga Siren, or heroes that tend to buy Manta Style, like Luna or Juggernaut, will give Slardar a hard time, as his damage is single-targeted.
Kunkka

Kunkka
* X Marks the Spot is a counter to Disruptor's 
Glimpse, but you need quick reactions to pull it off.
Luna

* 
Earthbind takes away Luna's mobility advantage.
* Meepo can shutdown Luna's split-push ability with his global presence.
Kunkka
* X Marks the Spot is good to prevent a single meepo from escaping from a deadly situation.

Luna
* Even though Phantom Assassin can easily kill Luna in few strikes, Luna can also do the same to Phantom Assassin if she is not careful.
* An ill-timed and ill-positioned 
Phantom Strike will make Phantom Assassin an easy target for counter-attack with Eclipse if she does not have Black King Bar available to use and if Phantom Assassin cannot kill Luna fast enough. This can be even better if Luna buys Aghanim's Scepter.
* Moon Glaives can ignore 
Blur's evasion if Luna attacks an enemy near Phantom Assassin.
* Luna can counter Blur's evasion by buying either Silver Edge, or 
Monkey King Bar, which are common items on Luna.
* Luna just has to be careful about 
Fan of Knives from Aghanim's Shard and 
Coup De Grace, as Fan of Knives can disable Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing while Coup De Grace can deal serious damage to her even if she is spell immune, though this issue can be solved by buying Ethereal Blade, which is a situational item on Luna.

* Though Enchantress's 
Untouchable can greatly reduce Luna's attack speed, and can go through any form of Spell Immunity, she has a pitiful HP so Lucent Beam and Eclipse can kill her very quickly.
* Moon Glaives allows Luna to clear Enchantress's creeps very efficiently.
Luna
* Heroes that create illusions: Spectre, Shadow Demon, Phantom Lancer, Naga Siren, Chaos Knight, Terrorblade) or bring other units into the fight (such as Nature's Prophet, Lone Druid, Chen, Enchantress, Meepo and Arc Warden) can cause Eclipse to strike the illusions/summons unintentionally. However, in many cases Moon Glaives can resolve this issue and eliminate them before activating Eclipse, but that will require lots of farming for right-click items.
Luna
* Luna's Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing can clear waves of Naga Siren's illusions from 
Mirror Image.
* Once Naga Siren's illusions are cleared with Aghanim's Shard upgraded Moon Glaives, Eclipse can often finish off Naga Siren before she can escape with 
Song of the Siren.
* A well-timed Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse combined with 0.25 Eclipse Lucent Ministun talent can be casted at long range and allow Luna to burst down Naga Siren faster and repetively stun Naga Siren, preventing her from escaping with Song of the Siren and 
Town Portal Scroll without getting caught in it's range.
* Luna is a natural Black King Bar wielder unlike Naga Siren who barely goes for it, which allows Luna to freely attack Naga Siren during Song of the Siren and potentially get rid of the most of the damage and crowd-control from Naga Siren.
Additional:
* Luna's Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing can clear waves of Naga Siren's illusions from Mirror Image, especially when combined with Gleipnir and Manta Style. Aghanim's Shard upgraded Moon Glaives can also be used to destroy Naga Siren's illusions and damage the real Naga Siren if they are too close to Luna while also reducing any damage Naga Siren inflicts on Luna for their duration.

Kunkka
* Melee heroes with low mobility can be kited and killed by Viper: Treant Protector, Kunkka, Alchemist, 
Troll Warlord, Wraith King, 
Tiny, Sven.
Luna
* Even though Luna has a hard time laning against Viper due to 
Nethertoxin being able to disable Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing, Luna can take out Viper once she builds either Black King Bar or Silver Edge which will allow her to attack Viper freely.
* Eclipse can often finish off Viper from early-to-mid stages of the game before he can retaliate as 
Corrosive Skin gives little magic resistance to him early on.
* Manta Style is an item that Luna commonly buys in most of the games, which lets her disjoint 
Viper Strike. Additionally, illusions from Manta Style can make Viper waste time attacking them.

Luna
* If carefully timed, Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse combined with 0.2s Eclipse Lucent Ministun talent can quickly finish off Terrorblade before he can get a chance to save himself with 
Sunder due to its high magical damage as long as Terrorblade has no Black King Bar.
* Moon Glaives allows Luna to clear Terrorblade's illusions from both, Conjure Image and Manta Style, this can be particularly advantegous for Luna if she has Manta Style. Just bear in mind, however, that 
Reflection can be used to turn Moon Glaives against Luna during laning phase.
* Luna very often builds Satanic and Black King Bar, which allows it either to protect herself from Sunder or nullify it's effects.
* Luna can also buy Monkey King Bar to help her deal with Terrorblade's high armor, which is a common item on Luna.

Aghanim's Shard upgraded Moon Glaives can be used to reduce damage Luna will take from Terrorblade and his illusions while also clearing waves of them and damaging Terrorblade if he is too close to Luna.
* Luna very often bulds Satanic and Black King Bar as well as it's alternative item Linken's Sphere, which allows her either to protect herself from Sunder or nullify it's effects.
* Luna can also buy Monkey King Bar to help her deal with Terrorblade's high armor, which is a common item on Luna. Likewise Luna can also buy Revenant's Brooch or Gleipnir whose attacks can also ignore Terrorblade's high armor.
Luna
* All assassin-type carries in a one against one situation: Meepo, Phantom Assassin, Riki, Ursa. Luna's only chances are that she buys Ethereal Blade or Black King Bar to gain a slight edge against them, or both items if necessary.
Luna
* Luna can push very fast with Moon Glaives, which is something Riki cannot deal with well.
* Luna is naturally very fast, making it hard for Riki to trap her in Smoke Cloud.
* Even though Riki can evade Eclipse with his invisibility, smart Luna will always buy Dust of Appearance, providing vision on Riki to her allies and herself.

Magnetic Field.

Luna
* 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.
Luna
* Even though Luna has a hard time laning against Necrophos, his 
Ghost Shroud won’t protect him in teamfights because it will increase the damage from Lucent Beam and Eclipse.
* Luna is a natural Black King Bar wielder, and none of Necrophos's spells can bypass spell immunity outside of 
Heartstopper Aura.

Luna
* Heroes that can keep Luna locked down for a long time can be a threat (she is very item and spell dependent): Faceless Void, Legion Commander, Doom.
Luna
* A well-timed Eclipse before a Duel usually prevents Legion Commander from winning Duels, if Luna is the target.
* Meanwhile, when Luna is not a target, Eclipse and Lucent Beam can also help an ally win a Duel against Legion Commander.
* However, skilled Legion Commander will always buy a Black King Bar to block Eclipse and Lucent Beam or Aghanim's Scepter to reduce it's damage.

Luna
* Heroes that rely on base damage: Luna, Phantom Lancer are easily countered with Anchor Smash.
Luna
* Luna often builds Black King Bar, and none of Tidehunter's spells can bypass spell immunity.
* Though 
Anchor Smash can weaken Luna's physical damage, it does not weaken her magical damage, which means that Lucent Beam and Eclipse deal a lot of magic damage in the early and mid-game, which can bypass Tidehunter's 
Kraken Shell.

Luna
* A couple of nukers and disablers on the same lane can finish a squishy Luna efficiently despite a teammate's assistance: Sven + Shadow Shaman.
Luna
* Luna's high magical damage burst from Lucent Beam and Eclipse can take advantage of Shadow Shaman's low health and strength gain.
* Without Black King Bar, Luna's Lucent Beam and 0.25 Eclipse Mini-stun talent for Eclipse can be used to disable Shadow Shaman while he is channeling Shackles.
* Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Eclipse combined with 0.25 Eclipse Mini-stun can repetively stun Shadow Shaman, and can even discourage him from even trying to use Shackles.
* Luna is a natural Black King Bar wielder, and almost none of Shadow Shaman's spells can bypass spell immunity, except for 
Mass Serpent Ward.
* Bear in mind, however, that if Shadow Shaman gets a jump on Luna first, he will be able to use 
Hex to disable Luna and burst her down before she can use Black King Bar, Lucent Beam or Eclipse. In addition, Moon Glaives cannot bounce on Mass Serpent Wards at all.

Luna
* Heroes who cannot fight back during Arena of Blood in the early and mid game: Abaddon, Anti-Mage, 
Broodmother, Luna, Sniper, Troll Warlord, Weaver, 
Clinkz.
Kunkka
* Kunkka's Ghostship and Torrent disrupt fights in Arena Of Blood.
Luna
* 
Burrowstrike allows Sand King to escape from Eclipse or to close the gap on Luna and finish her off.
* 
Sand Storm allows Sand King to harass Luna more efficiently than she does with Lucent Beam, as it makes him invisible for it's duration and while in it, rendering him safe from both, Lucent Beam and Eclipse and forcing Luna to buy Dust of Appearance more often.
* 
Caustic Finale allows Sand King to deal serious damage to both, Luna and her allies, which is especially hazardous in laning stage as Luna's attack range is short.
* 
Epicenter combined with Burrowstrike and Sand Storm can often kill Luna before she can do anything because of her low health and strength gain.
* Overall, Sand King forces Luna to play more defensively instead of offensively, and for the same reasons, Sand King makes a very powerful ally for Luna when they are in the same team.

Kunkka
* Ghostship helps your team soak up damage from Epicenter, especially if he initiates during the battle.
* Sand King can't dodge X Marks the Spot - Torrent combo by his abilities. Torrent drags him out of his Sand Storm
Luna
* Escape-type carries: Slark, Storm Spirit, Weaver.
Kunkka
* In general, highly mobile heroes like Earth Spirit or Storm Spirit are at a disadvantage against X Marks the Spot.
* Similarly, heroes with low cooldown teleports can be afraid to split push against X Marks the Spot, such as Tinker and Nature's Prophet.
Kunkka
* 
Guardian Angel makes allies immune to all physical damage, effectively causing Tidebringer to do no damage.
* 
Purification is a powerful, pure damaging heal that can save Omniknight's allies after Kunkka's large damage.
Luna
* Guardian Angel does not offer protection from Eclipse, though it will negate damage from Moon Glaives.
* Luna's high magical damage from Lucent Beam and Eclipse can often finish allied heroes before Omniknight can save them with Purification.
* Likewise, Luna's high physical damage from Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing is strong enough to counter debuff immunity from 
Repel.

Luna
* Illusions and summons are double-edge sword type of matchup for Luna. On one hand, they can tank damage from Eclipse, but on the other hand, she can easily clear them before Eclipse with Moon Glaives. Examples include Spectre, Shadow Demon, Phantom Lancer, Naga Siren, Chaos Knight, Terrorblade) or bring other units into the fight (such as Nature's Prophet, Lone Druid, Chen, Enchantress, Meepo and Arc Warden).
Kunkka
* 
Rage negates Kunkka's X Marks the Spot.
* As a strength hero with high strength gain and very little armor, as well as low agility gain, Kunkka is vulnerable to Lifestealer's 
Feast and 
Open Wounds.
Luna
* Although Lifestealer can avoid Eclipse with Rage and 
Infest, Luna's physical damage can be enough to deal with him.
* Manta Style is a common pick on Luna, which can help her dispel slows from 
Ghoul Frenzy and Open Wounds. In addition, Lifestealer is not good against illusions created by Manta Style.

Blade Fury negates Kunkka's X Marks the Spot. 
Omnislash.
Healing Ward directly in battle, and it mitigates Ghostship and Tidebringer's damage.
* Kunkka has no way to dodge
* Kunkka has no way to hit
Luna
* Because of her low range, Luna cannot easily destroy
Healing Ward.
Blade Fury and 
Omnislash are direct counters to Eclipse, offering Juggernaut spell immunity and invulnerabilty. Therefore, Luna will need assistance in taking down Juggernaut as going solo will not be successful.
