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.
* If activated, 
Rage can protect Lifestealer from Hoof Stomp, Double Edge, and Stampede.
Additional:
* Centaur Warrunner's active abilities cannot pierce magic immunity. 
Hoof Stomp's slow wind up can also be anticipated and negated with Rage.
* Lifestealer can offset 
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.
Centaur Warrunner
* 
Battery Assault easily interrupts Centaur Warrunner due to his poor cast animation.
* 
Power Cogs can negate Stampede.
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.
Centaur Warrunner
* 
Kinetic Field and 
Glimpse can completely negate Stampede.
Lich
* Lycan doesn't care much about Lich's slows thanks to 
Shapeshift.
* Chain Frost can bounce to the wolves that Lycan summons.
Additional:
* 
Lich possesses a lot of slows, which Lycan doesn't care about when he Shapeshifts.
* Lich has no in-built escape, which makes him a good target for Lycan.
Lich
* Bloodseeker is not affected by slows when he is affected by 
Thirst.
* If he sees Chain Frost is targeting him, he can easily isolate himself with the movement speed buff from Thirst so that it stops bouncing around.
* Lich heavily relies on his abilities to contribute to team fights, making 
Blood Rite effective against him.
Centaur Warrunner
* 
X Marks the Spot negates Stampede.
Lich
* Lich does not pose a big threat to Zeus in teamfights, as his spells don't have great cast range and Zeus should be too far back for a 
Chain Frost to bounce among him and his allies.
* Lich has a low health pool, allowing Zeus to burst him down quickly.
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.
Lich
* Weaver doesn't care much about Lich's slows thanks to 
Shukuchi.
* If he sees Chain Frost is targeting him, he can easily isolate himself with Shukuchi so that it stops bouncing around.
* Unless Lich bursts Weaver immediately, Lich has no hard disables or silences to prevent him from using 
Time Lapse.
Lich
* Chain Frost can bounce to the treants that Nature's Prophet summons.
* Nature's Prophet's 
Sprout can be used to isolate and burst down the squishy Lich.
Additional:
* His treants can prevent Chain Frost from jumping to Nature's Prophet or his allies.
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.

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.
Lich
* Vulnerable spellcasters with no escape mechanisms are easy targets for Huskar: Lich, 
Crystal Maiden, 
Silencer, 
Keeper of the Light, 
Venomancer, etc.
Additional:
* Lich is going to have a hard time nuking Huskar because of his high health regeneration from 
Berserker's Blood.
* Lich is a squishy support without an escape mechanism, making Lich an easy kill thanks to 
Life Break and 
Burning Spear.
* Once Huskar has 
Armlet of Mordiggian, even a maxed out Frost Blast will struggle to finish Huskar off.
Lich
* Support heroes with low mobility can be slowed further by Incapacitating Bite, and swarmed by Spiderlings for an easy kill: 
Shadow Shaman, 
Visage, 
Dazzle, 
Rubick, Lich.
Additional:
* Chain Frost can bounce to the Spiderlings that Broodmother spawns.
Lich
* Lich is heavily reliant on his abilities to contribute to team fights, so be wary of enemies that can Silence: 
Bloodseeker, 
Death Prophet, Silencer, 
Drow Ranger, 
Skywrath Mage.
Lich
* Heroes that depend on disrupting fights with ability combos or big ultimate abilities are vulnerable to the long stun of Fiend's Grip: 
Disruptor, Death Prophet, 
Enigma, 
Faceless Void, 
Invoker, Lich, 
Magnus, 
Mars, 
Medusa, 
Outworld Destroyer, 
Phoenix, 
Puck, 
Queen of Pain, 
Shadow Fiend, 
Treant Protector, 
Underlord, Winter Wyvern, 
Witch Doctor, 
Zeus.
Lich
* The haste provided by 
Dark Seer's 
Surge or a {Rune:Haste} renders Lich's slows ineffective.
Lich
* Heroes with low health will die easily during Duels, and can be farmed for damage in the early game: Crystal Maiden, Lich, 
Techies, Rubick
Lich
* Lich is heavily reliant on his abilities to contribute to team fights, so be wary of enemies that can Silence: Bloodseeker, Death Prophet, Silencer, Drow Ranger, Skywrath Mage.
Lich
* Lich is heavily reliant on his abilities to contribute to team fights, so be wary of enemies that can Silence: Bloodseeker, Death Prophet, Silencer, Drow Ranger, Skywrath Mage.
Lich
* Heroes who lack burst damage will have a hard time against Mars: 
Phantom Lancer, 
Nature's Prophet, Lich.
Lich
* Chain Frost can deliver high amounts of damage to Arc Warden and his double if they do not separate fast from each other.
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.
Lich
* Lich's Chain Frost, especially after obtaining its respective talent that provides unlimited bounces, can take out all of Chaos Knight's illusions quickly.
* An 
Aghanim's Scepter-upgraded 
Sinister Gaze can hypnotize Chaos Knight and his illusions while also draining his already low mana pool.
Additional:
* Chain Frost can eliminate Chaos Knight's 
Phantasm army, especially after he clumped up using 
Reality Rift.
* Frost Shield will heavily reduce his army's effectiveness.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who are reliant on illusions: 
Chaos Knight, Phantom Lancer, 
Naga Siren.
Lich
* 
Frost Blast and Chain Frost can kite Troll Warlord effectively.
* 
Frost Shield can single-handedly waste most of the duration of Battle Trance, due to the extreme resistance to physical damage Frost Shield provides. In addition, Troll Warlord is incapable of switching targets during Battle Trance, so he cannot pick an easier target.
* Troll Warlord has little to no ability to regenerate HP, so Frost Blast together with Frost Shield can harass him effectively.
Centaur Warrunner
* 
Troll Warlord's high speed attack makes Retaliate deal a lot of damage to him.
Lich
* Lich's Chain Frost forces Io to either give up providing buff to his ally with 
Tether or suffer devastating damage with his Tethered ally.
* Lich can easily use Sinister Gaze to disable Io from getting away with Tether or 
Relocate.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes that are hard to gank: 
Axe, Death Prophet, Phantom Lancer, 
Slark, 
Centaur Warrunner, 
Bristleback, Medusa, Mars.
Lich
* Heroes with nukes: 
Bane, Lich, 
Lion, Skywrath Mage
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: 
Weaver, Dark Seer, 
Lycan, Centaur Warrunner.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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).
Centaur Warrunner
* Stampede can allow Soulbinded heroes to just ran away.
Lich
* Lich's constant slows with Frost Blast and Chain Frost will slow Dragon Knight to a crawl, especially in a crowded teamfight.
Centaur Warrunner
* Centaur's low Intelligence makes 
Mind Flare 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.
Lich
* Chain Frost can deliver high amounts of damage to Lone Druid itself and his bear if they do not separate fast from each other.
Additional:
* Chain Frost will bounce between Lone Druid and his bear, forcing them to separate or suffer high amounts of damage.
Lich
* Frost Shield helps offset the armor reduction from Natural Order.
Centaur Warrunner
* Centaur Warrunner's passive Retaliate makes it so that the familiars cannot attack him without damaging themselves over time, in turn causing them to be destroyed.
Lich
* 
Poof combo puts all of the Meepos very close together, making them vulnerable to Frost Blast's AoE slow and multiple bounces from Chain Frost.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who are reliant on illusions: Chaos Knight, Phantom Lancer, Naga Siren.
Additional:
* Centaur's Retaliate will harm all attacking enemies, which will allow Centaur Warrunner to see which is the real Naga Siren.
* A well timed Hoof Stomp followed by Double Edge will clear all Naga's illusions and prevent Naga Siren from escaping with 
Song of the Siren.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes that can keep Monkey King stunned for a long time can pose a threat: Axe, Centaur Warrunner.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who thrive on teamfights can be a problem, such as Venomancer, 
Necrophos, Centaur Warrunner...
Centaur Warrunner
* Durable heroes can stand against Tusk during 1v1: Axe, 
Dragon Knight, 
Night Stalker, Centaur Warrunner, 
Wraith King and more.
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...
Centaur Warrunner
* As Terrorblade's damage output comes mainly from direct attacks, he will struggle greatly against heroes who have abilities that give evasion, trigger on attack or which can disarm an enemy hero: Centaur Warrunner, 
Hoodwink, 
Huskar, Invoker, 
Leshrac with 
Nihilism from Aghanim's Scepter, 
Lifestealer with Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Infest, 
Pangolier, 
Phantom Assassin, 
Pugna, Techies, 
Windranger etc.
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.
Lich
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich, 
Ancient Apparition, 
Jakiro, Disruptor.
Centaur Warrunner
* Axe, Bristleback, Centaur Warrunner, 
Spirit Breaker, 
Pudge, Huskar, Wraith King, Doom: 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.
Lich
* Phantom Assassin can easily escape Lich's slows with 
Phantom Strike.
* Phantom Assassin's 
Coup De Grace can be used to burst down the squishy Lich.
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:
* 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.

* 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.
Lich
* Queen of Pain can easily escape Chain Frost thanks to 
Blink.
* His low survivability makes an easy kill for 
Shadow Strike, 
Scream of Pain & 
Sonic Wave.
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.
Lich
* Lich is heavily reliant on his abilities to contribute to team fights, so be wary of enemies that can Silence: Bloodseeker, Death Prophet, Silencer, Drow Ranger, Skywrath Mage.
Centaur Warrunner
* Heroes who have low or high armor but very high health will be difficult for drow to burst down quickly: 
Primal Beast, Axe, Centaur Warrunner.
Lich
* Anti-Mage can withstand magical burst damage much better than other carries, making him effective against nukers: Lich, Necrophos, 
Oracle, and Leshrac.
Additional:
* Although he can be effective against Anti-Mage in an aggro offlane, Lich has a hard time nuking down Anti-Mage in the midgame due to his Counterspell.
* All of Lich's abilities are also targeted, which makes it much harder to disable Anti-Mage.
* In the lategame, Anti-Mage can easily pick off Lich with 
Blink, and the high mana cost of Chain Frost along with Lich's large mana pool makes him vulnerable to 
Mana Void.
* Blink allows Anti-Mage to escape Chain Frost.
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.
Lich
* Heroes with low health: Lich, Crystal Maiden, Lion.
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.
Lich
* Heroes with powerful nuke can waste their precious abilites on her Refraction during a ganking attempt or chaos combat:
Lich, 
Lina, 
Sniper, 
Outworld Destroyer 
Zeus
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.
*
