[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 11%)Weaver
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)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.
Dark Seer
* Dark Seer's only disable is Vacuum. Though he starts off with high armor and health, he'll eventually have a hard time dealing with high mobility heroes such as Weaver or
Queen of Pain.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 3%)Lich
* If Thirst activated, Lich doesn't slow Bloodseeker.
* If he sees Chain Frost is targeting him, he can easily isolate himself with Thirst or forces Bloodseeker to build Blade Mail can cause Lich to accidentally kill himself with Chain Frost.

Rupture.
Dark Seer
* Heroes with fast movement abilities will suffer huge damage when afflicted by Rupture: Spirit Breaker,
Earth Spirit,
Dark Seer.

* Rupture can deal a lot of damage to either a surged Dark Seer or his allies and prevent the target from getting into position.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 6%)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.
Dark Seer
* Dark Seer's only disable is Vacuum. Though he starts off with high armor and health, he'll eventually have a hard time dealing with high mobility heroes such as Weaver or
Queen of Pain.
Lycan
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 57% pickrate: 3%)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.
Oracle
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Dark Seer
* Fortune's End dispels Ion Shell and Surge, making any gank attempt on Dark Seer in the laning phase likely to succeed.
* Fate's Edict prevents all magical damage that comes from Dark Seer's abilities.
* Fortune's End dispels Ion Shell on creeps, which Dark Seer relies on to farm and zone.
Additional:
* Fortune's End can dispel Ion Shell, a skill that helps Dark Seer immensely in the laning phase, as well as
Surge, a move-speed buff, effectively allowing Oracle to control Dark Seer, especially in the laning phase.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)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.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 11%)Dark Seer
* Flame Guard makes Dark Seer not deal any damage with his skills to Ember Spirit.
Kunkka
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Dark Seer
* X Marks the Spot prevents Dark Seer or his allies from escaping with Surge.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Dark Seer
* The constant dispel from Demonic Purge will make any attempt to save the victim or himself by Surge become futile. For what it's worth, Demonic Purge will also dispel
Ion Shell.
Nature's Prophet
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 12%)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:

Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Lich

* Phantom Assassin's Coup De Grace can be used to burst down the squishy Lich.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 11%)Dark Seer
* A Sniper who is somewhat competent at positioning is hardly going to be affected by any of Dark Seer's spells thanks to Take Aim.
* However, an illusion of Sniper made with Wall of Replica is extremely powerful, and hard to deal with.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 6%)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.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 4%)Lich
* Heroes with low health: Lich,
Crystal Maiden,
Lion.
Legion Commander
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)Lich

Lich,
Techies,
Rubick
Underlord

* In general, melee heroes without blink mechanisms or spell immunity will have a hard time positioning against Pit of Malice: Sven,
Tiny,
Wraith King,
Dragon Knight,
Meepo,
Doom,
Bounty Hunter,
Dark Seer,
Undying,
Alchemist,
Legion Commander.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 29%)Dark Seer
* 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.
Disruptor
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)Dark Seer
* 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.
Bane
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)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,

Underlord,
Winter Wyvern,
Witch Doctor,
Zeus.
Sven
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Dark Seer
* Strong laners are usually at a disadvantage because of how well Sven can jungle. Heroes such as Dark Seer.
Underlord and
Legion Commander may find that later Sven takes care of them very quickly after some jungle farming.
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Dark Seer
* In general, heroes who are melee with no way to fight back can be very easily poked by Monkey King to gain his Jingu Mastery stacks: Dark Seer,
Riki,
Rubick.
Mars
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Lich
* Heroes who lack burst damage will have a hard time against Mars: Phantom Lancer,
Nature's Prophet,
Lich.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 1%)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.
Dark Seer
* Dark Seer can take great advantage of Divided We Stand by putting an Ion Shell on a clone in order to harass them effectively.
* Vacuum can take a single Meepo and disable them for him and his teammates to take out.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)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.
Dark Seer
* Heroes that rely on illusions will suffer against Ion Shell, which kills them very quickly: Phantom Lancer,
Chaos Knight,
Naga Siren,
Meepo.

* Heroes with nukes: Bane,

* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,

Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)Dark Seer
* Dark Seer's Vacuum and
Ion Shell allows him to clear the wave of Terrorblade's illusions.
* Wall of Replica and
Normal Punch from
Aghanim's Shard can create stronger illusions of Terrorblade.
* If Dark Seer can use Vacuum to help teammates land their AoE skills, Terrorblade will be quickly killed before he even gets a chance to use
Sunder.
Additional:
* Dark Seer's Vacuum and
Ion Shell allows him to clear a wave of Terrorblade's illusions.
* Because Terrorblade often builds items that require Ultimate Orb like
Manta Style and
Eye of Skadi, Dark Seer can create a very strong illusion of Terrorblade with
Wall of Replica and
Normal Punch from
Aghanim's Scepter.
* If Dark Seer can use Vacuum to help teammates land their AoE abilities, Terrorblade will be quickly killed before he even gets a chance to use Sunder.
Dragon Knight
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 5%)Lich
* Lich's constant slows with Frost Blast and
Chain Frost will slow Dragon Knight to a crawl, especially in a crowded teamfight.
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)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.
Elder Titan
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 1%)Lich
* Frost Shield helps offset the armor reduction from Natural Order.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Dark Seer
* Venomancer is a low health hero and low range hero who is easy to harass with Ion Shell on a creep in the early game.
* Venomancer depends entirely on all his slows to keep distance or chase, but since Surge ignores slows, it is nearly impossible for Venomancer to hunt or run away from Dark Seer or his surged teammates.
Warlock
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Dark Seer
* Surge allows for Dark Seer and his allies to escape from Upheaval due to it ignoring any slow.
Io
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)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.
Chen
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 0%)Dark Seer
* Dark Seer's Vacuum and
Ion Shell can clear a wave of Chen's Creeps effectively.
* Surge applies haste movement and negates the slow from
Hand of God, allowing Dark Seer to easily escape from Chen and his creeps.

[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 5%)Lich
* Chain Frost can deliver high amounts of damage to Arc and his clone
Treant Protector
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 16%)Dark Seer
* Living Armor can be destroyed quickly with Ion Shell.
Lone Druid
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 3%)Lich
* Chain Frost can deliver high amounts of damage to Lone 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.
Pangolier
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Dark Seer

Keeper of the Light,
Huskar,

Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Tusk
Primal Beast
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Lich

Ogre Magi,
Winter Wyvern.
Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Dark Seer
* Heroes who rely on damage over time as Spiked Carapace can block and reflect only one instance of damage: Venomancer,

Ember Spirit,
Dark Seer,
Sand King,

Dawnbreaker.

Slark
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Dark Seer

About
This website was made to help you in pick stage of online game Dota 2. It calculates rating for each possible counterpicks based on tips from web-based database made up entirely of user contributions Dota 2 wiki.
You will get the list of recommended hero counters with a list of tips written by Dota 2 wiki contributors explaining why it's good against the particular hero. In comparison to other similar websites, which show only rating based on average hero win rate from dotabuff or similar service.
How to interpret this data
Take it with a bit of grain of salt, especially if the recommendation has a low rating (<= 1), some heroes
may win a lane in an early game but would lose in late game (and vice versa). That's why sometimes
you could hero names appearing as a counter and as being countered, as on image:
You can also add your own tips, update old data and fix mistakes by editing page on Dota 2 Wiki (it works like Wikipedia - anyone can contribute, you don't even need to register) these edits will appear on this website automatically (data is updated several times per week).
Right now there is no app/overlay that will detect picks automatically (like overwolf dota plus or become the gamer), instead, you can open web version in a steam in-game browser or use mobile version on your smartphone.

Lich
* Anti-Mage can withstand magical burst damage much better than other carries, making him effective against nukers:
Lich,
Necrophos,
Oracle, and
Leshrac.
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.
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
*
Dark Seer
* Dark Seer's strength lies in his high-mana cost skills. So
Mana Break can be a great nuisance for him, since it can reduce his mana and prevent him from casting his spells.
Mana Void can deal a lot of damage if Dark Seer spent a lot of mana on his abilities.
*
