Mirana
* If Slark sees the Sacred Arrow before it hits him, he can use 
Dark Pact to remove it a moment later.
* 
Pounce prevents Mirana from escaping with Leap.
* Slark can survive Mirana's 
Aghanim's Scepter combo with 
Shadow Dance.
Hoodwink
* Slark's Pounce can be used to dodge Hoodwink's abilities or lock her down.
* Shadow Dance makes Slark unhittable from 
Acorn Shot.
* Dark Pact removes all slows from Hoodwink's abilities.
* Hoodwink's already low health output is a great target for Slark's 
Essence Shift.
Mirana
* Overgrowth has a great duration, which prevents the units caught from attacking, moving and Blinking. Heroes like 
Storm Spirit, 
Mirana, 
Anti-Mage and others won't be able to do much if they're caught.
Hoodwink
* Treant can give chase should Hoodwink attempt to 
Scurry away, and 
Nature's Grasp can slow her down so Treant Protector's teammates can pin Hoodwink down.
Mirana
* 
Moonlight Shadow does little good against Dragon Slave and Light Strike Array.
* Lina's damage burst can quickly kill Mirana's teammates before she saves them with Moonlight Shadow.
Additional:
* 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity is an item Lina commonly buys, which in combination with and 
Light Strike Array can disable Mirana if she tries to Leap away.
* 
Laguna Blade's magical (pure with Laguna Blade damage is Pure and pierces Spell Immunity talent) burst damage takes advantage of Mirana's below average health.
Hoodwink
* Abilities that can destroy trees can give Hoodwink a disadvantage: 
Timbersaw, 
Windranger, 
Lina.
Mirana
* Heroes that have superior mobility that can easily catch up with Mirana even after she used Leap to escape: Anti-Mage, 
Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit, 
Riki.
Hoodwink
* Storm Spirit can easily make his way to Hoodwink with his ultimate 
Ball lightning, and coupled with Hoodwink's low health and magic resistance, she can be nuked easily.
* Additionally, Ball lightning can destroy a small amount of trees in its destination. Combined with Storm Spirit's frequent usage of his ultimate, he can clear out an area of trees while simultaneously attacking him and dodging incoming attacks.
Mirana
* Heroes with spells that negate invisibility such as 
Bounty Hunter, 
Zeus and 
Slardar prevent her from saving her allies with Moonlight Shadow.
Hoodwink
* Due to Hoodwink's low health and Zeus's high magic damage from 
Arc Lightning, 
Lightning Bolt and 
Static Field as well as global abilities from 
Thundergod's Wrath and 
Nimbus, he can easily kill her throughout the game and also reveal where Hoodwink is positioned or when she's in trees.
Mirana
* Arc Warden can use his summons to prevent 
Sacred Arrow from hitting himself or his allies.
* Mirana doesn't build items that give armor often, so she usually can't fight against a late game Arc Warden.
Additional:
* 
Flux will slow and damage Mirana even after she Leaps, since she will likely not be near allies.
* Arc Warden can place 
Magnetic Field on an ally who has been hit by Sacred Arrow to protect them.
Mirana
* The long silence of 
Crippling Fear at night prevents Mirana from escaping with Moonlight Shadow and Leap. She also has really low base health, so Night Stalker can usually kill her during one cast of Crippling Fear at night.
* With 
Dark Ascension and 
Gem of True Sight, Night Stalker can find and kill Mirana, and he is a tanky hero capable of fighting Mirana any stage of the game.
Hoodwink
* 
Nether Swap can forcibly reposition 
Sharpshooter.
Mirana
* Though Mirana can clear waves of Broodmother's spiderlings with 
Starstorm, Broodmother will often stick with her spiderlings from 
Spawn Spiderlings, which in combination with the huge speed provided by 
Spin Web can make it hard for Mirana to hit her with Sacred Arrow.
* Broodmother commonly buys 
Orchid Malevolence and it's upgrade 
Bloodthorn, which allows her to prevent Mirana from escaping with both, 
Leap and Moonlight Shadow and from fighting back with Starstorm.
* Aghanim's Scepter gives Broodmother access to 
Spinner's Snare, which allows her to create invisible lines on her webs from Spin Web that will root Mirana, deal damage over time to Mirana and reveal Mirana if she or any of her allies unwittingly step on them while affected by Moonlight Shadow, disrupting her attempts to initiate with Moonlight Shadow and Sacred Arrow, and prevent her to use Leap while also alerting Broodmother on her attempts to ambush her and her allies.

Hoodwink
* 
Chaotic Offering's vast area-effect can destroy trees and stun Hoodwink.
* 
Upheaval makes retreating with Scurry difficult.
Hoodwink
* Nyx's 
Spiked Carapace can reflect the damage of Sharpshooter, instantly killing hoodwink. Nyx can also use 
Vendetta to position himself in such a way to screen allies from Sharpshooter and catch Hoodwink by surprise.
Hoodwink
* Timbersaw’s reliance on nearby trees means he’ll usually be close to Hoodwink.
* More significantly, Timbersaw's tree destroying abilities cut off Hoodwink's escape options, passive and easily foil Acorn Shot or 
Bushwhack combos.
* While channeling Sharpshooter, Timbersaw can simply sit his 
Chakram on top of her and unleash his full combo, forcing her to cancel and disengage.
* 
Timber Chain can be used to dodge Sharpshooter.
Mirana
* 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.

Centaur Warrunner, Windranger, 
Phantom Assassin, 
Hoodwink etc.
Mirana
* 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.
Mirana
* Mirana's Leap is ineffective if Lycan uses 
Shapeshift. It also allows him to dodge Sacred Arrow.
Mirana
* Puck can initiate on Mirana with 
Waning Rift to prevent her from going invisible or Leaping.
* A Mirana caught in 
Dream Coil will stun herself if she tries to Leap away.
* Puck's Burst damage takes advantage of Mirana's below average health.
* Puck can easily dodge Sacred Arrow and Starstorm with 
Phase Shift.
Additional:
* Mirana's spells are laid out to assassinate enemies. Puck can easily avoid the slow moving Sacred Arrow, and also can avoid Starstorm with Phase Shift, since the meteors have a delay.
* If Puck casts either Waning Rift or Dream Coil in the area, Mirana cannot Leap away.
Mirana
*

Mirana
* Heroes that can protect or dispel stunned allies such as Legion Commander, Outworld Destroyer, Shadow Demon and Oracle can reduce the effectiveness of Sacred Arrow.
Mirana
* Mirana cannot use Leap while rooted by Earthbind and her Moonlight Shadow is countered by Meepo's true sight that is provided by Earthbind.
Additional:
*

Poof and 
Ransack while disabled.

Mirana
* Sacred Arrow's long stun duration can prevent Morphling from casting his Waveform or Morph Replicate, making him unable to escape and easier to gank.
* Moonlight Shadow also allows Mirana's team to surprise Morphling while he tries to push towers.
* Mirana usually buys 
Linken's Sphere to protect herself from single-target abilities, making Morphling's Adaptive Strike and 
Ethereal Blade harder to use on her.
* However, Mirana also provides a chance to become a good Morph target, allowing Morph to use Leap to run away, if necessary.
Hoodwink
* Sharpshooter can kill easy when Morphling is going on full agility strategy (Only in early and mid game).
* Scurry can help to catch up Morphling when using 
Waveform or for escape.

Mirana
* Heroes with silences and hard stuns such as Doom, Silencer, and Lion can keep Mirana from Leaping away.

Leshrac's 
Split Earth, or combos like Kunkka's 
X Marks the Spot into 
Torrent.
Hoodwink
* 
Hex and 
Earth Spike do not cancel Sharpshooter, making those two abilities ineffective against her.
* Although Hoodwink should be wary of his 
Finger of death, as it can possibly kill her.
Mirana
* Sacred Arrow can be used to interrupt Freezing Field from a safe distance, forcing her to cancel it to dodge or get hit.
* Crystal Maiden has very slow movement speed, making her an easy Sacred Arrow target.
* Crystal Maiden has low health and can easily be killed with an Aghanim's Scepter combo or just when hit with an arrow.
* If 
Frostbite has already been used, Mirana can Leap away even when slowed by 
Crystal Nova or 
Freezing Field.

Berserker's Blood, nullifying Huskar's power source.

Manta Style which dispels Cold Feet.
* During Moonlight Shadow, the invisibility makes it hard to catch Mirana's team with Ice Blast.
* Ancient Apparition's lack of mobility/escape capabilities makes him an easy target for Mirana at any stage of the game.
Hoodwink
* Sharpshooter disables both 
Blur and 
Coup De Grace, especially with the level 25 talent.
* Because Phantom Assassin is often reliant on critical strikes, Hoodwink can have enough time to simply move near a tree and escape with Scurry.
