Shackleshot and the slow from
Powershot can be both dispelled by Dark Pact, provided Slark casts it at the right moment.
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.
Windranger
* Phase Shift allows Puck to effectively dodge Powershot, and even Shackleshot if timed correctly.
* Waning Rift prevents Windranger from casting all her abilities, most especially Windrun and Focus Fire .
* Windranger cannot escape with Windrun when she's affected by Dream Coil, as she will be instantly stunned when she tries to break away from the coil, allowing Puck's teammates to focus her down.
Mirana
* 
Doom completely takes Mirana out of a team fight, a hero who relies heavily on using abilities and items to contribute in team fights.
Windranger

Mirana
* 
Track detects Mirana and her allies during Moonlight Shadow.
Windranger
* 
Bounty Hunter with Track.
* Heroes with True Sight can be a problem for Windranger once she has upgraded Windrun with Aghanim's Scepter, but do take note that the invisibility it provides is not broken upon moving, casting abilities or using items, so it is vital to cast these abilities beforehand to be able to provide vision on Windranger:
* Bounty Hunter with Track.
* 
Bloodseeker with 
Thirst.
* 
Slardar with 
Corrosive Haze.
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.
Windranger
* 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.
Mirana
* Heroes with summons or illusions makes Sacred Arrow harder to land: 
Shadow Demon, 
Phantom Lancer, 
Nature's Prophet.
Windranger

* Disruption can be used to save an ally if they get stunned by Shackleshot.
Mirana
* Heroes with silences and hard stuns such as 
Doom, 
Silencer, and Lion can keep Mirana from Leaping away.
Windranger
* Silencer's abilities hamper Windranger's effectiveness in battle, preventing her from comboing abilities and escaping using Windrun.
Additional:
* 
Glaives of Wisdom's intelligence steal can prove detrimental to Windranger, as she heavily relies on her abilities to be able to make an impact.
* Silencer's abilities hamper Windranger's effectiveness in battle, preventing her from comboing abilities and escaping using Windrun.
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.
Windranger
* Queen of Pain, for the most part, almost exclusively deals magical damage, ignoring Windranger's evasion from Windrun.
* Queen of Pain is also a common wielder of 
Orchid Malevolence, preventing Windranger from using her abilities for a while.
* Blink, when used correctly, allows Queen of Pain to dodge Powershot and Shackleshot.
Mirana
* Heroes who rely on invisibility, such as Bounty Hunter, 
Clinkz, 
Mirana, 
Nyx Assassin and Riki, as they will be revealed if caught by Chronosphere.
Windranger
* Time Dilation while renders Windrun movement speed useless slow.
* Time Walk fast cooldown can escaping avoided to Focus Fire. Additionally, Time Walk can dodge to Powershot
* Chronosphere trap can attacking Windranger can not escaping with Windrun.
Additional:
* 
Time Dilation affects Windranger's low cooldown abilities, making them unusable for a long time, reducing Windranger's escape potential.
* The high mobility provided by 
Time Walk makes it hard for Windranger to find a good position to land Shackleshot or a full duration of Focus Fire.
* 
Chronosphere provides excellent lockdown against Windranger, allowing for reliable kills in all stages of the game.
* Faceless Void tends to go for items that require 
Javelin, such as 
Maelstrom, 
Mjollnir and 
Monkey King Bar, allowing him to bypass the evasion from Windrun.
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.
Windranger
* 
Ball Lightning can escape quickly fear from Focus Fire. Windranger can not reach Storm Spirit although Windrun active catch him.
Additional:
* The high mobility provided by Ball Lightning makes it hard for Windranger to find a good position to land Shackleshot or a full duration of Focus Fire. It can be also used to dodge Powershot.
Mirana
* Heroes with spells that negate invisibility such as Bounty Hunter, Zeus and Slardar prevent her from saving her allies with Moonlight Shadow.
Windranger
* While Slardar has Guardian's Sprint activated, Powershot cannot slow him and is easier to avoid.
* Slithereen Crush and Bash of the Deep help Slardar put Windranger in place, even when she uses Windrun to escape.
* Corrosive Haze from Slardar is very effective against Windranger's already low armor. This becomes even worse if she has Aghanim's Scepter-upgraded Windrun, because it also reveals her position and allowing his allies to use their abilities on Windranger.
* Note that the invisibility provided by Aghanim's Scepter-upgraded Windrun is not broken upon attacking, casting abilities or using items, so it's vital to cast Corrosive Haze beforehand.
Mirana
* Mirana's Leap is ineffective if Lycan uses 
Shapeshift. It also allows him to dodge Sacred Arrow.
Windranger
* Windranger tends to fare badly against high mobility heroes that can easily dodge Powershot, close the gap on her when she uses Windrun or escape from Focus Fire's reach. Examples of such heroes include 
Spirit Breaker, 
Lycan, Storm Spirit, 
Earth Spirit, 
Void Spirit, 
Slark and others.
Mirana
* Heroes that rely on invisibility can be tracked with Charge of Darkness opening them to team attacks: Bounty Hunter, Mirana, Riki

Mirana
* Sacred Arrow can be instantly dispelled by Aphotic Shield.
Additional:
* Abaddon can remove Sacred Arrow's stun from his teammates with 
Aphotic Shield, or remove it from himself with 
Borrowed Time.
* Borrowed Time makes Abaddon almost impossible to burst down with Mirana's Aghanim's Scepter combo.
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.
Windranger
* Windrun does not provide protection against 
Counter Helix and 
Berserker's Call. Her fast attack speed with Focus Fire will also quickly trigger Counter Helix multiple times.
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.
Windranger
* The high mobility provided by 
Fire Remnant makes it hard for Windranger to find a good position to land Shackleshot or a full duration of Focus Fire.

Legion Commander, 
Outworld Destroyer, Shadow Demon and 
Oracle can reduce the effectiveness of Sacred Arrow.
Windranger
* 
Press The Attack dispels the stun from Shackleshot.
* 
Duel can lock down Windranger before she can escape with Windrun.
* Legion Commander tends to go for 
Blade Mail, which returns the damage she takes from Focus Fire.
Mirana
* Heroes that cannot move in fights such as a Dueling Legion Commander or anyone channeling a spell like 
Bane, 
Pudge, or 
Enigma are easy Sacred Arrow targets.
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.

Windranger
* 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.
Windranger
* Power Cogs prevent Windranger from fleeing with Windrun.
* Battery Assault repeatedly interrupts Focus Fire, disrupting Windranger's damage output.

Shadow Realm and will be interrupted if targeted earlier, wasting the ultimate.
Windranger
* Kraken Shell easily dispels the lengthy stun from Shackleshot.
* Kraken Shell (and possibly Anchor Smash) blocks huge amount of damage from Focus Fire.
* Anchor Smash is one of the few sources of True Strike, which means Tidehunter can deal significant damage through Windrun, while also reducing Windranger's damage output.
Additional:
* 
Kraken Shell can easily dispel Shackleshot after he has taken a certain threshold of damage.
* 
Ravage provides excellent lockdown against Windranger, allowing his teammates to kite her throughout the game.
* When Tidehunter has 
Aghanim's Shard, he will gain access to 
Dead in the Water, allowing him to lock down Windranger at any time. When Windranger tries to move away from the anchor with Windrun, she will be effectively slowed, preventing her from escaping.
Windranger
* Many of Nyx Assassin's abilities are good against Windranger.
* 
Impale is great for stunning Windranger and allowing additional disables to be landed.
* 
Mind Flare is useful against Windranger's decent intelligence growth.
* 
Spiked Carapace is easy to use against Powershot.
* 
Vendetta allows Nyx Assassin to sneak up on and deal massive damage to Windranger without giving Windranger a chance to use Windrun to evade it.
* Nyx Assassin's item build allows him to easily deal with Windranger.
Windranger

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.

Windranger
* 
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.
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.
Windranger
* Spectre can catch up to her with 
Spectral Dagger, even if she uses Windrun.

Vanguard (and its upgrade 
Abyssal Blade) makes Spectre tanky and/or reflects some damage back to Windranger.
Windranger
* Combo Quill Spray and items Blade Mail can easily trigger from Focus Fire damage.
Additional:
* Using Focus Fire on Bristleback tends to fare badly for Windranger, as he can trigger passive 
Quill Sprays many times, especially when she attacks him from behind. In addition, Windrun does not protect her from both 
Viscous Nasal Goo and Quill Spray, rendering her helpless.
* Bristleback's natural tankiness makes it hard for Windranger to effectively burst her down throughout the game.
* Bristleback tends to continuously spam Viscous Nasal Goo to slow down Windranger when she uses Windrun to escape, potentially allowing him to outrun her with his 
Warpath stacks.
* Bristleback can build 
Lotus Orb to reflect Shackleshot and Focus Fire back at Windranger.
Windranger

Windranger
* With 
Normal Punch from Aghanim's Scepter, Dark Seer can gain an advantage against heroes who rely on evasion as Normal Punch has true strike: Phantom Assassin, Windranger, Hoodwink.

Troll Warlord and 
Keeper of the Light.
Windranger
* Positioning-reliant heroes (Windranger, 
Tidehunter, 
Ursa...), since Earth Spirit can disrupt positioning with his Boulder Smash.
Windranger
* 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.
Windranger
* Windranger heavily relies on her abilities for any form of tactical advantage and damage. A well timed silence will make her useless: 
Puck,Silencer, Death Prophet, Skywrath Mage, 
Drow Ranger, Earth Spirit, 
Grimstroke.
Windranger
* 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.

Mana Break and 
Mana Void are good against Windranger's high mana pool.
Mirana
* Counterspell does not protect Anti-Mage from Sacred Arrow.
* Moonlight Shadow can help her allies avoid Mana Break and Mana Void.
* Blink's cooldown isn't short enough to escape from Leap, especially when she has the extra charge from Aghanim's Shard.

* Moonlight Shadow it can disappear anytime and Anti-Mage can not fight.
Mirana
* Heroes with silences and hard stuns such as Doom, Silencer, and Lion can keep Mirana from Leaping away.
Windranger
* 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.
Mirana
* 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.
Mirana
* Heroes with summons or illusions makes Sacred Arrow harder to land: Shadow Demon, Phantom Lancer, Nature's Prophet.

Lucky Shot makes Focus Fire temporarily useless.
Windranger
* Sven with Aghanim's Scepter-upgraded 
Storm Hammer can easily chase down Windranger and dispel her Windrun at the same time.
Windranger
* Other heroes that rely on physical attacks to deal damage and not their abilities: Troll Warlord, 
Sniper, 
Monkey King, Sven.
Windranger
* Due to lack of magic resistance, Venomancer poisons eats through Windranger's health.

Mirana
* Heroes that cannot move in fights such as a Dueling Legion Commander or anyone channeling a spell like Bane, Pudge, or Enigma are easy Sacred Arrow targets.
Additional:
* If Meat Hook is used before Leap, Mirana may be able to escape Pudge's grasp by leaping to safety.
* The invisibility from Moonlight Shadow gives a degree of mobility, which can make Mirana or her teammates difficult targets to hook.
* Sacred Arrow can be used to cancel Dismember from long distances.
Windranger
* Pudge relies on his hook to initiate his combo. As long as she's able to avoid the hook with Windrun and shackle him, Windranger can take him down easily. Pudge's low armor means that he won't be able to endure Focus Fire for long.
Mirana
* Sacred Arrow can be used to interrupt Death Ward from a safe distance, forcing him to cancel it to dodge or get hit.
* 
Paralyzing Cask is a slow-moving stun, and Mirana can Leap away from her allies to keep it from bouncing.
* Witch Doctor has low health and can easily be killed with an Aghanim's Scepter combo or just when hit with an arrow.
Windranger
* Death Ward's first target (before it bounces) can evade it, therefore Windranger and Phantom Assassin are poor choices to use it on.
Mirana
* Leap allows Mirana to easily escape the freezing range of Cold Feet. Mirana also tends to build 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.

Night Stalker, Storm Spirit, 
Juggernaut, etc.
Mirana
* Heroes that can instantly kill creeps greatly reduce the effectiveness of Chen's converted army: 
Lifestealer, Doom, Mirana, Clinkz.
Windranger
* Heroes with evasion will cause Chen and his creeps to struggle in attacking them and will waste much of Penitence's power: Phantom Assassin, Windranger, Hoodwink.
Mirana
* Techies spends lots of time standing still planting stacks of 
Land Mines away from creep waves.
* Sacred Arrow can be used to scout hidden Land Mines among trees and at uphill places. It can also be used to catch Techies while he's planting them.

Blast Off!.
* Mirana has a high attack range to destroy his traps from a safe distance.
Windranger

* Shackleshot is a powerful disable if Enchantress gets too close to one of her own minions.
* Focus Fire can negate 
Untouchable.
Windranger
* Focus Fire tears apart Templar Assassin's Refraction very quickly and easily bursts her down due to her low health pool against Windranger's immense attack speed.
* Templar Assassin's Psionic Trap doesn't slow down Windranger due to Windrun. Additionally, Windranger can survive Templar Assassin's high burst damage thanks to the evasion it provides.
Windranger
* Powershot can destroy the trees to prevent 
Scurry's passive as well as end 
Bushwhack prematurely or prevent it completely.
* 
Acorn Shot does not grant True Strike, thus making it easy for Windranger to evade it with Windrun.

* {Ability ID:Windrun|Windranger|16px} gives Windranger enough movement speed to get out of {Ability ID:Blade fury|Juggernaut|16px} range.
* {Ability ID:Focus fire|Windranger|16px} goes through {Ability ID:Blade Fury|juggernaut|16px}.
Windranger
* Phantom Assassin's 
Blur is useless against Windranger as she commonly buys items that require Javelin like Maelstrom, Monkey King Bar or Bloodthorn, and other than Stifling Dagger, Phantom Assassin has nothing else that can bypass Windrun.
* Additionally, Phantom Assassin doesn't like building Monkey King Bar because her crits are reliant on attack damage.
* Focus Fire can still deal considerable damage despite Blur's evasion due to the increased attack speed.

Windranger
* Windranger's highly mobile playstyle allows her to easily control Lifestealer from a distance, as he has no disables on his own. Windrun not only provides her with bonus move speed, but evasion as well, undoing Lifestealer's ability to attack her. In combination with Focus Fire, Windranger can easily dispose of Lifestealer without him being able to reach her.
Mirana
* Mirana can disturb Shadow Shaman's channeling even if he is under the effect of invisibility thanks to Sacred Arrow.
* Mirana armed with an Aghanim's Scepter is known to be able to quickly burst down heroes - especially supports. Together with 
Ethereal Blade the bullying towards Shadow Shaman can continue for the whole match.
Windranger
* Ursa relies on the Blink-Earthshock combo to slow enemies to burst them, but Windranger can use Windrun to escape through Earthshock's duration.
* Windrun and Focus Fire can easily allow Windranger to kite Ursa and do good amounts of damage in the process.
Additional:
* Windranger can avoid Ursa's primary source of damage, 
Fury Swipes, by simply using Windrun. The slow from 
Earthshock is also rendered irrelevant by Windrun.
* Focus Fire and Windrun can be used to kite Ursa.

* 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,

Earthbind prevents Mirana from Leaping or going invisible with Moonlight Shadow. She can be easily killed by 
Poof and 
Ransack while disabled.
* Landing a Sacred Arrow on Meepo does not render him helpless, as all of the other Meepos can still fight back.
Windranger
* Focus Fire can quickly attack target Meepo or clones instanly. Additionally, Windranger can use combinated Shackleshot and Focus Fire since Poof wrong landing and stunned from Shackleshot affected Meepo and clones collateral damege from Focus Fire.

* 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.
Mirana
* Heroes with summons or illusions makes Sacred Arrow harder to land: Shadow Demon, Phantom Lancer, Nature's Prophet.
