Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Pugna
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Leshrac
* Nether Ward punishes Leshrac's constant mana usage from spamming spells.
* Leshrac needs to be in the thick of the fight to deal damage, and so cannot escape from Nether Blast nor
Life Drain easily.
Additional:
* Leshrac needs to be close to target in order to do damage, Pugna can outrun Leshrac with ease due to his superior movement speed.
* Split Earth can also be hard to land on Pugna for the same reason.
* Leshrac uses huge amounts of mana to do damage, Nether Ward forces him to either not contribute in a fight or kill himself in the process.
Disruptor
* Nether Ward can do a ton of damage to Disruptor because of his high mana costs.
* Life Drain can be used to heal an ally trapped by Static Storm-Kinetic Field combo (if Pugna is not a target).
Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Leshrac
* Nyx Assassin's Spiked Carapace will stun Leshrac when hit by any of his AOE abilities.
* Mana Burn deals high damage due to Leshrac's high intelligence gain and burns a large amount of Leshrac's essential mana pool.
Disruptor
* Heroes that can pick you off: Clinkz,
Nyx Assassin,
Puck,
Riki.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 11%)Leshrac

Oracle
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Leshrac

* Oracle's False Promise can dispel Leshrac's stun and slow from his abilities, allowing an ally to escape.
* Fortune's End can stop Leshrac from chasing opponents or running away.
Abaddon
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Disruptor
* Aphotic Shield dispels Thunder Strike.

[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Disruptor
* Corrosive Skin minimizes the damage Viper takes from all of Disruptor's skills.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Disruptor
* Phantasm removes Glimpse and dispels
Thunder Strike. Additionally, the Phantasm illusions make it difficult to use Glimpse and Thunder Strike on the real Chaos Knight.
* Disruptor's lack of mobility, combined with his lack of innate defense, sets him up for a Reality Rift and a beatdown by Chaos Knight and his illusions.
Kunkka
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Disruptor

Pangolier,

Omniknight
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 3%)Disruptor
* Purification allows Omniknight to keep a hero trapped in the Static Storm alive.
Disruptor
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich,
Ancient Apparition,
Jakiro,
Disruptor.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 11%)Disruptor
* Sniper can kill Disruptor while he is trapped by Kinetic Field from a long range.
* Sniper generally stays in the back, making it hard for Disruptor to cast any of his skills on him in lane.
Disruptor
* Heroes with catch to disrupt Sniper's positioning and deliver him into the enemies: Batrider,
Disruptor,
Pudge,
Vengeful Spirit.
Primal Beast
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Leshrac
* Diabolic Edict makes Leshrac very effective at threatening early towers and objectives which can directly cause unfavourable conflicts with Primal Beast early before he has
Black King Bar to deal with the magical damage.
* Pulse Nova and the rest of Leshrac's spells can overwhelm Primal Beast with magical damage.
* Leshrac has generally faster movement speed than Primal Beast, especially if he has items such as Boots of Travel and
Eul's Scepter of Divinity.
* Bloodstone also makes him heal much more than Primal Beast can damage him at any stage of the game.
Disruptor
* Glimpse can prevent Onslaught in the laning stage very easily.
* While Static Storm is not much of a threat in terms of damage, it does prevent Primal Beast from casting any spells for a long period of time if also trapped in
Kinetic Field.
* Overall, Disruptor forces Primal Beast to buy a Black King Bar much earlier than he might like but becomes a major threat to Disruptor once he does.
Io
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Leshrac
* Io is a hero who needs to be close to it's tethered target to make it effective, and that's where Leshrac gets the advantage thanks to many of his area-of-effect abilities.
* Lightning Storm will usually hit both Io and its tethered target since both will be close enough for the lightning to jump.
* Diabolic Edict and
Pulse Nova hit all units near Leshrac, meaning he can do colossal damage to both, Io and its tethered target.
Additional:
* Lightning Storm will usually hit both Io and his Tethered target since both will be close enough for the lightning to jump. It can then be followed up by Split Earth.
* Diabolic Edict and Pulse Nova hit all units near Leshrac, meaning he can do colossal damage to Io and his Tethered target.
Disruptor
* Disruptor can always Glimpse back Io or his target after he Relocated nearby.
* Even better, thanks to the indicator on the ground, you can even preemptively drop Static Storm and Kinetic Field on the spot they will relocate to.
* Thunder Strike and Glimpse are also good tools to bring back an Io that Tethered away in the fog of war.
Additional:
* Glimpse directly negates Relocate.
* Kinetic Field prevents Io from escaping with
Tether.
* Static Storm can silence and damage both, Io and it's tethered target. And it can also mute both, Io and it's tethered target when upgraded with
Aghanim's Scepter
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Leshrac
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: Necrophos,
Phoenix,
Alchemist,
Earthshaker,
Razor,
Tinker,
Leshrac,
Queen of Pain
Disruptor
* Thunder Strike provides vision of Monkey King when he's in the trees. The periodic damage will also keep Monkey King from using Tree Dance if he's on the ground.
* Glimpse pulls Monkey King out of the trees if he attempts to escape using Tree Dance, and can cause Wukong's Command to end prematurely if Monkey King is Glimpsed out of its radius.
* However, if Monkey King strikes first, if he has already casted Wukong's Command, Disruptor's abilities will not be much of an use
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Leshrac
* Heroes who continue dealing damage while being stunned: Luna,
Razor,
Axe,
Bristleback,
Leshrac,
Disruptor
* Glimpse drags Spirit Breaker back from an escaping Charge, or takes him out of a ganking Charge.
* However, after purchasing Aghanim's Shard, a well-timed Nether Strike will completely nullify the Glimpse during a gank attempt.
* Static Storm can be used to instantly stop his charge if absolutely necessary, and also prevent a follow-up Nether Strike.
Slark
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Leshrac
* Heroes with AoE abilities will hit Slark in Shadow Dance: Lina,
Jakiro,
Underlord,
Leshrac,
Dark Seer,
Earthshaker,
Timbersaw,
Crystal Maiden.
Disruptor
* Thunder Strike provides vision on him while Slark is invisible.
* Glimpse's range at lvl 3-4 is more than enough to pull him back to a favorable position for your team to group up and kill him.
* Even though he is capable of picking you off and deal enough damage to kill you, Slark will be literally sticking his neck out, since jumping on Disruptor means being on his battleground.
* AoE silence and the ability to mute Black King Bar is deadly to Slark at all stages of the game.
Additional:
* Static Storm and
Kinetic Field locks down Slark, as he cannot use Dark Pact to dispel any disables, or Pounce out while silenced.
* Glimpse puts an end to any attempts at ganking Disruptor or his allies, and also negates Slark's mobility by bringing him back into the fight if he tries to escape with Pounce.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 6%)Disruptor
* Blink and positioning is crucial for Queen of Pain. These factors are heavily countered by a good Glimpse.
* Static Storm is devastating for Queen as she relies heavily on her spells to inflict heavy burst damage.
Additional:
* Thunder Strike gives vision of Queen of Pain when she's trying to escape. When combined with
Glimpse, her mobility and hit-and-run style can be negated.
* While in a team fight, Static Storm forces Queen of Pain to only use right-clicks.
* When combined with the Kinetic Field, she can only wait until she respawns.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Leshrac
* Diabolic Edict and Pulse Nova will tear apart any illusions spawned from Disruption
* Split Earth can punish improper usage of Disruption.
* Leshrac does not have any buffs that can be removed by Demonic Purge.
Additional:
* Pulse Nova makes quick work of any illusions with amplified damage, and deals damage even if Leshrac is in Disruption.
* An attempt to save an ally using Disruption can easily become a perfect setup for a Split Earth for the enemy.
* Disruption does not stop Diabolic Edict and
Pulse Nova once they start pulsing, and even worse it provides a safe shelter for Leshrac to keep pumping up his powerful AoE damage onto the battlefield.
* Leshrac usually builds Eul's Scepter of Divinity to dispel Shadow Poison and Soul Catcher and
Linken's Sphere to block Disruption and Demonic Purge.
* Shadow Demon doesn't have the burst damage to take Leshrac out of the fight quickly, although Demonic Purge can help his allies kill a squishy Leshrac.
Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Leshrac
* Pulse Nova can easily burn Templar Assassin's
Refraction charges quickly, and can also hit her with her
Meld.
Shadow Fiend
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 18%)Disruptor
* Glimpse and
Kinetic Field allows Disruptor to set up some early kills onto Shadow Fiend.
* Static Storm can be used to cancel the cast of Requiem of Souls.
Tidehunter
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Disruptor
* In the mid-game, Tidehunter relies on Kraken Shell to stay alive and get his
Ravage off. Apart from Thunder Strike, none of Disruptor's abilities can be dispelled, so it's rather easy to trap him inside Kinetic Field and Static Storm.
* Be mindful, however, that Kraken Shell still makes Tidehunter very tanky, so be sure that you can kill him with your combo or your partners while he is silenced and trapped.
Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Disruptor
* At around the 10-minute mark, Disruptor would normally be level 6 or 7. This means you can have a level 3/4 glimpse along with Static Storm. A high level glimpse is enough to pull Storm back to a Static Storm even after he used Ball Lightning due to his limited mana pool at that time.
* Be careful in the late game however, as there is a good chance he will kill you straight-out before Glimpse has finished bringing him back. Therefore Glimpse would simply bring him back to safety after he's murdered you or a teammate. Of course, this is assuming he hasn't silenced you with an item.
Dawnbreaker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 8%)Disruptor
* Kinetic Field prevents Dawnbreaker from escaping with Celestial Hammer.
* Kinetic Field and
Static Storm can pin down Dawnbreaker after she jumps in with Solar Guardian.
* Glimpse can force Dawnbreaker out of a fight right after she uses Solar Guardian.
Magnus
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 15%)Disruptor
* Disruptor can disable Magnus's Blink Dagger using Thunder Strike during a considerable duration, disrupting his initiation attempts.
* Glimpse brings Magnus back after he escapes with Skewer and/or Force Staff.
* Static Storm if used on a fight can prevent Magnus from using Reverse Polarity after he jumps in.
Underlord
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Disruptor
* Glimpse will return Underlord or any of his teammates attempting to escape with Dark Rift if timed correctly.
* Underlord is a slow and low mobility hero, easy to set up Static Storm and
Kinetic Field, preventing him from using his abilities as well as preventing him using Dark Rift to escape
Earthshaker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Disruptor
* Thunder Strike can be used to cancel Earthshaker's
Blink Dagger.
* Glimpse brings Earthshaker back after he jumps on
Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Enchant Totem.
* Static Storm if used on a fight can prevent Earthshaker from executing his combo after blinking in.
Centaur Warrunner
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Disruptor
* Kinetic Field and
Glimpse can completely negate Stampede.
Chen
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 0%)Leshrac
* Leshrac's AoE abilities make quick work of Chen's creep army.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 3%)Leshrac
* Your AoE abilities should make quick work of her spiderlings.
Visage
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 2%)Leshrac
* Diabolic Edict and Pulse Nova hit all units around Leshrac, making it very easy for him to kill the Summon Familiars.
* Diabolic Edict and Pulse Nova also deal many instances of damage, nullifying Gravekeeper's Cloak.
* Split Earth and Lightning Storm makes it difficult for Visage to kite Leshrac, even while under the effects of
Grave Chill.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 1%)Leshrac
* Pulse Nova deals an insane amount of damage in an area around him, which can quickly wear down Meepo clones.
* Leshrac can catch multiple Meepos in Split Earth and follow up with the rest of his area damage spells making Meepo unable to get close to Leshrac.
* Diabolic Edict is a strong ability that can wear down a lone Meepo clone quickly.
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)Leshrac
* Heroes that have strong area-of-effect abilities and can stall pushes: Invoker,
Keeper of the Light,
Jakiro,
Lina,
Luna,
Leshrac,
Shadow Shaman.
Lion
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)Leshrac
* Lion lacks mobility or escape mechanisms, making him an easy target for abilities like Mirana's
Sacred Arrow or
Leshrac's
Split Earth, or combos like
Kunkka's
X Marks the Spot into
Torrent.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)Leshrac
* Timbersaw has a difficult time against magical and pure damage: Lina,
Leshrac,
Enchantress,
Queen of Pain
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Disruptor
* Doom,
Disruptor with
Aghanim's Scepter, and hex abilities all prevent item usage, which is a severe problem for Phantom Assassin as it prevents her from using
Black King Bar, the one item that helps protect her against the aforementioned dangers.
Doom and
Shadow Demon with
Aghanim's Scepter also disables Phantom Assassin's Evasion and Critical Strike, removing much of her damage and survivabaility.
Nature's Prophet
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 12%)Leshrac
* Heroes who summon multiple units that are not spell immune. Nature's Prophet,
Lycan,
Beastmaster

* Heroes that can negate Hoodwink's mobility: Kunkka,
Disruptor,
Mars.
Marci
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Disruptor
* Heroes that can keep Marci for a long time in one place so she can't pursue her targets, like Bane,
Lion,
Shadow Shaman,
Invoker,
Disruptor and
Kunkka.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)Leshrac
* Since Windranger is bad against magical damage, heroes with continuous magical damage or magical nukes can blast her: Zeus,
Tinker,
Leshrac,
Viper,
Skywrath Mage,
Lion,
Lina,
Venomancer.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)Disruptor
* As a spellcaster, silences will nullify him entirely. Some notable examples are Death Prophet,
Drow Ranger,
Bloodseeker,
Disruptor and many others.
* Doom, as usual, fits this description nicely.
Enigma
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Leshrac
* Heroes who can clear the waves of Enigma's Eidolons: Lina,
Luna,
Dawnbreaker,
Jakiro,

Keeper of the Light,
Invoker,
Leshrac,
Puck.

* Heroes who summon multiple units that are not spell immune. Nature's Prophet,
Lycan,
Beastmaster
Spectre
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 11%)Disruptor
* Disruptor can control where she goes with
Kinetic Field and
Glimpse.
Static Storm shuts her down in teamfights.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 4%)Leshrac
* Heroes that can punish aggressive heroes, such as: Leshrac,
Shadow Demon,
Pugna,
Death Prophet.
Dark Seer
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 2%)Disruptor
* Dark Seer relies on Surge for most of his mobility, so he's not very vulnerable to slows, but much more to root effects and walls or pseudo-walls such as Disruptor's
Kinetic Field or
Slark's
Pounce.
Ursa
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)Disruptor
* Ursa struggles against heroes with strong (and especially undispellable) disables (Disruptor,
Puck,
Shadow Demon,
Outworld Destroyer and etc).
Lycan
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 57% pickrate: 3%)Leshrac
* Heroes who summon multiple units that are not spell immune. Nature's Prophet,
Lycan,
Beastmaster
Tusk
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 15%)Disruptor
* Tusk with
Snowball

Mirror Image
* Tusk with
Snowball
* Juggernaut with
Omnislash
* Brewmaster with
Primal Split
* Lifestealer with
Infest
* Phoenix with
Supernova
Disruptor
* Glimpse can return Tusk to where he was after using Snowball.
* Static Storm prevents Tusk from escaping with
Snowball and when upgraded with
Aghanim's Scepter, it will also prevent him from using items.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Leshrac
* Heroes with long cast animations can be continuously interrupted by Battery Assault: Centaur Warrunner,
Jakiro,
Leshrac,
Naga Siren,
Underlord.
Additional:
* Clockwerk naturally builds Blade Mail, reflecting Leshrac's high magic damage output back at him.
* Power Cogs will prevent Leshrac from reaching Clockwerk's team and dealing large AOE damage to them.
* Power Cogs will also keep Leshrac close, wasting his Diabolic Edict on just Clockwerk.
* Battery Assault interrupts Leshrac's long cast times of Split Earth and Lightning Storm.
Disruptor
* Glimpse moves Clockwerk away from allies struck by Hookshot, or under attack by Battery Assault.
* Static Storm can turn Power Cogs into Clockwerk's own grave, and if Disruptor has
Aghanim's Scepter, then Clockwerk will not be able to use
Blade Mail to return damage at all.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Disruptor
* Naga Siren with
Mirror Image
* Heroes that can dodge Glimpse:
* Puck with
Phase Shift
* Riki with
Tricks of the Trade
* Phantom Lancer with
Doppelganger
* Ember Spirit with
Sleight of Fist and

* Juggernaut with
Omnislash
* Brewmaster with
Primal Split
* Lifestealer with
Infest
* Phoenix with
Supernova
Leshrac
* All of Leshrac's abilities, especially Pulse Nova, can easily deal with Naga Siren's illusions.
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 11%)Leshrac
* Anti-Mage can withstand magical burst damage much better than other carries, making him effective against nukers: Lich,
Necrophos,
Oracle, and
Leshrac.
Additional:
* Counterspell severely reduces Leshrac's magical damage.
* Leshrac already burns through his own mana with Pulse Nova, Mana Break will burn through even more.
* Leshrac's high mana pool will increase the amount of damage Mana Void does to him when his mana is low.
Disruptor
* Glimpse brings Anti-Mage back after he Blinks away.
* Static Storm stops Anti-Mage from Blinking.
Additional:
* Similar to Queen of Pain, Glimpse can disable Blink, negating his mobility.
* However, Counterspell can negate a majority of Disruptor's damage, which may require him to have a partner to successfully kill Anti-Mage.
Puck
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Disruptor
* Puck with
Phase Shift
* Heroes that can dodge Glimpse:
* Puck with
Phase Shift
* Riki with
Tricks of the Trade
* Phantom Lancer with
Doppelganger
* Ember Spirit with
Sleight of Fist and
Activate Fire Remnant
* Chaos Knight with
Phantasm
* Naga Siren with
Mirror Image
* Tusk with
Snowball
* Juggernaut with
Omnislash
* Brewmaster with
Primal Split
* Lifestealer with
Infest
* Phoenix with
Supernova
Disruptor
* Riki and
Disruptor:
Smoke Screen and
Static Storm can be thrown wherever Puck used Phase Shift, making Puck an easy target if it doesn't have Blink Dagger or is on cooldown. Puck is also very susceptible to Riki's high attack damage when attacking from the back. Glimpse also prevents Puck from escaping.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Disruptor
* Doppelganger is a very reliable tool against Glimpse, enabling him to dodge it consistently.
* Doppelganger also allows Phantom Lancer to escape from Kinetic Field so long as there isn't a Static Storm on top of him.
Additional:
* Doppelganger lets Phantom Lancer instantly escape from
Kinetic Field.
* Doppelganger is one of the most reliable ways to dodge
Glimpse, other than spell immunity.
* Doppelganger dispels
Thunder Strike.
* However, even with the negation of the rest of his kit, Static Storm (especially when upgraded with
Aghanim's Scepter) remains as one of the strongest lockdowns against Phantom Lancer, and as such Disruptor must never be underestimated.
Leshrac
* Leshrac can easily clear Phantom Lancer's illusions with his huge area of effect damage.
Additional:
* Leshrac's AoE abilities destroy Phantom Lancer's illusions.
* Diabolic Edict and
Pulse Nova require no targeting, thus hitting Phantom Lancer whenever he's nearby.

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.

List of new features that have been added
- Results now also sorted both by rating and average hero win rate for the chosen rank (data from dotabuff)
- You can share counterpick suggestions just by copying URL. Try it: Pudge and Phantom Assassin counters

- Added link next to each hero pointing to wiki hero page
- Counterpick suggestions will appear as you type
- Added statistics: Total entries in the database: 557, last updated: about 1 month ago
- Filtering by role: carry/durable/support - data taken directly from the game (basically the filters which you see on pick stage in dota)
- 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.
- Mobile website version
- 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).
