Night Stalker
* Heroes with illusions and summons can manfight Night Stalker: 
Terrorblade, 
Beastmaster, 
Broodmother.
Monkey King
* The Hawk can easily find Monkey King while he is sitting on a tree.
* Wild Axes can knock out Monkey King from tree.
* Boars drastically reduce Monkey King's attack speed, making it harder for him to gain 
Jingu Mastery stacks.
Additional:
* 
Wild Axes can chop down trees, making it difficult for Monkey King to utilize Tree Dance well.
* 
Call of the Wild Hawk can scout Monkey King when he is perched on top of trees.
* 
Primal Roar can stun Monkey King for a lengthy duration even with spell immunity.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with stronger lane presence that can threaten to kill him: 
Batrider, 
Juggernaut, 
Ursa, 
Monkey King, 
Razor.
Monkey King
* Firefly destroys trees and can turn 
Tree Dance into a free four second stun.
Additional:
* 
Firefly allows Batrider to gain vision of Monkey King while he is on an tree, as well as destroying any nearby trees, denying Monkey King spots to jump to, or causing him to fall.
* 
Sticky Napalm's turn rate slow makes it significantly more difficult for Monkey King to jump from tree to tree and gain Jingu Mastery stacks. It also reveals Monkey King while he is on a tree.
* 
Flamebreak and 
Flaming Lasso enable Batrider to remove Monkey King out of Wukong's Command.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with illusions and summons can manfight Night Stalker: Terrorblade, Beastmaster, Broodmother.
Monkey King
* Heroes with blind of some sort can be a bad choice for Monkey King to go on: Broodmother, 
Riki, 
Keeper of the Light.
Night Stalker
* 
Bloodseeker's 
Rupture turns Night Stalker mobility against him and 
Thirst grants movement speed bonus and vision prevents Night Stalker from initiating and re-initiating.
Monkey King
* Heroes that can maintain vision on Monkey King can see when he uses Tree Dance: Bloodseeker, 
Treant Protector with Eyes In The Forest, 
Sniper, 
Weaver
Night Stalker
* 
Night Stalker is all about right-clicks. His nuke, 
Void is also not that threatning once you have 
Hood of Defiance, your core item.
Monkey King
* Heroes that can keep Monkey King stunned for a long time can pose a threat: 
Axe, 
Centaur Warrunner.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that can punish aggressive heroes, such as: 
Leshrac, 
Shadow Demon, 
Pugna, 
Death Prophet.
Monkey King
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: 
Necrophos, 
Phoenix, 
Alchemist,

Monkey King
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: Necrophos, Phoenix, Alchemist, Earthshaker, Razor, Tinker, Leshrac, Queen of Pain
Additional:
* Static Link can steal the bonus damage from Jingu Mastery and reduce the physical damage from 
Boundless Strike. It also reduces 
Wukong's Command's damage if it's used after stealing damage via Static Link.
* Static Link will give Razor shared vision on Monkey King if he tries to escape using Tree Dance or 
Mischief.
* Plasma Field can prevent Monkey King from using Tree Dance and Mischief.
* Eye of the Storm will remove the armor buff from Wukong's Command, as well as hitting Monkey King during Mischief.
Monkey King
* 
Wave of Terror grants flying vision over trees, and its wide effect can hit Monkey King and end Mischief.
* 
Nether Swap can easily cancel Wukong's Command by swapping him out of the circle.
Additional:
* She can easily cancel Wukong's Command with Nether Swap.
* Wave of Terror can also detect him while he's on the trees.
Night Stalker
* 
Warcry makes it difficult to burst Sven down with both the passive (with 
Aghanim's Shard) and active component.
* Sven under the effect of 
God's Strength and his massive physical damage make Sven very dangerous to engage in the mid game.
Monkey King
* Malefice will cause Monkey King to struggle without 
Black King Bar, as its periodic damage and stun disables/interrupts abilities, such as Tree Dance and Wukong's Command.
* 
Midnight Pulse can also destroy trees in a wide radius, stunning Monkey King if he happened to be on a tree caught within Midnight Pulse area-of-effect.
Additional:
* 
Malefice keeps Tree Dance on cooldown, and can interrupt Wukong's Command's long cast time.
* Midnight Pulse destroys a large amount of trees.
Monkey King
* 
Nethertoxin prevents the buildup of Jingu Mastery stacks.
* Viper's poison magical damage-over-time stops Monkey King from using Tree Dance. It also ignores the extra armor bestowed by Wukong's Command.
Additional:
* 
Viper STrike prevents the buildup of Jingu Mastery stacks.
* Monkey King's high base movement speed is of little worth against the array of slows Viper possesses.
* All of Viper's magical damage over time stops Monkey King from using Tree Dance. It also ignores the extra armor bestowed by Wukong's Command.
Monkey King
* 
Blur makes it hard for Monkey King to stack Jingu Mastery.
* 
Phantom Strike allows Phantom Assassin to blink directly to Monkey King during Wukong's Command, bypassing all his clones.
* 
Coup de Grace's high damage can kill Monkey King quickly, thus ending Wukong's Command prematurely.
Monkey King
* 
Powershot destroys the tree Monkey King is standing on.
* Monkey King's natural reliance on trees makes him an easy target for 
Shackleshot.
* 
Windrun evades Monkey King's attacks, preventing him from building up Jingu Mastery.
Monkey King
* Keeping Void Spirit inside Wukong's Command is a very tricky task, especially in the early and mid game. In addition, if Monkey King is in a bad position, a well placed Aether Remnant can easily pull him out of the ring.
* Getting stacks of Jingu Mastery can be difficult when attacking Void Spirit.
Monkey King
* Terrorize forces Monkey King out of Wukong's Command.
Monkey King
* 
Cinder Brew and 
Drunken Brawler makes it hard for Monkey King to stack Jingu Mastery.
* 
Cyclone can remove Monkey king for 6 seconds if his allies lack dispels.
* 
Dispel Magic can dispel Jingu Mastery's bonuses.
Night Stalker
* 
Whirling Axes (Melee) provides a 60% miss chance, which can make the attack speed bonus from Hunter in the Night largely ineffective.
* 
Berserker's Rage together with 
Battle Trance and 
Fervor stacks gives him a high chance of rooting Night Stalker, which allows Troll Warlord to man-fight Night Stalker in any stage of the game, regardless of whether or not it's night.
* Night Stalker is not a common 
Monkey King Bar carrier to counteract this problem.
Monkey King
* Timbersaw's low cooldown and low mana cost abilities destroys the trees that Monkey King depends on.
* 
Timber Chain allows Timbersaw to escape Wukong's Command.
Additional:
* Timbersaw can easily cut down the tree that Monkey King is standing on, stunning him for a lengthy period.
* Timbersaw can use Timber Chain to easily escape Wukong's Command and 
Primal Spring's slow.
* However, when facing Monkey King mid, Timbersaw might get harassed out of the lane because of Jingu Mastery.
Night Stalker
* Void's slow is useless against Lycan by activating 
Shapeshift.
* Night Stalker's single target abilities (with the exception of Void upgraded by 
Aghanim's Scepter) is not very effective against Lycan's 
Summon Wolves during the early and mid game.
Monkey King
* Monkey King often hides in trees, where he can be easily caught with 
Bushwhack.
* 
Acorn Shot can target enemies in the fog, including Monkey King when he is on a tree.
* 
Sharpshooter provides flying vision along the cast indicator while charging, which can be used to scout the trees for Monkey King.
Night Stalker
* Mirror Image can be effective since Night Stalker cannot withstand fighting illusions. If he's unable to tell which Naga Siren is real, he will have a hard time landing his Void. However, if Night Stalker obtains an Aghanim's Scepter, the upgraded Void will hit and may even locate the real Naga Siren in fights.
Additional:
* 
Ensnare and 
Song of the Siren prevents Night Stalker from escaping and ganking during daytime or even nighttime.
* 
Rip Tide reduces Night Stalker's armor, making him easier to focus down.
* 
Mirror Image can be effective against Night Stalker, due to his single target abilities.
Monkey King
* 
Impetus pure damage ignores the extra armor granted from Wukong's Command.
* 
Enchant can dispel Monkey King's Jingu Mastery bonuses.
* 
Untouchable makes it hard for Monkey King to land Jingu Mastery stacks.
* 
Sproink allows Enchantress to escape from Wukong's Command.
Monkey King
* Venomancer's magical damage-over-time poisons will constantly put Tree Dance on cooldown, greatly diminishing Monkey King's mobility.
* 
Venomous Gale and 
Poison Nova will hit Monkey King when he is perched on a tree, or disguised with Mischief.
* However, Venomancer is also easily ganked by Monkey King if caught by surprise.
Additional:
* Venomancer's magical damage-over-time poisons putting Tree Dance on cooldown, greatly diminishing Monkey King's mobility.
* Venomous Gale and Posion Nova will hit Monkey King when he is perched on a tree, or disguised by Mischief.
Night Stalker
* Void's slow is dispelled by 
Doppelganger or counteracted by 
Phantom Rush.
* 
Spirit Lance's and 
Diffusal Blade's slow reduces Night Stalker's mobility and helps him or his ally escape if they're inflicted by Void or Crippling Fear.
* Night Stalker has no AoE abilites to take out Phantom Lancer's illusions. Even if Night Stalker gets an Aghanim's Scepter, there will be way too many illusions for Night Stalker to handle.
Monkey King
* Heroes that can destroy trees will deny Monkey King spots to jump on, or cause him to fall: 
Windranger, 
Nature's Prophet, 
Phantom Lancer
Monkey King
* Monkey King's Jingu Mastery is undispellable and puts a big yellow Mark over his head.
* Heroes with undispellable debuffs will help identify the real Phantom Lancer through visual effects or debuff indicators, provided that it was cast on the real Phantom Lancer to begin with:
* 
Doom's 
Doom marks Phantom Lancer with a highly visible effect, and also silences and mutes him.
* Bloodseeker's Rupture shows a clear red trail effect on the real Phantom Lancer.
* 
Ancient Apparition's 
Ice Blast will only debuff Phantom Lancer and not his illusions.
* 
Grimstroke's 
Soulbind is undispellable.
* Shadow Demon's 
Demonic Purge is undispellable.
* Monkey King's Jingu Mastery is undispellable and puts a big yellow Mark over his head.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that rely on slows to get kills: 
Lifestealer, Night Stalker, Ursa, 
Phantom Assassin, Terrorblade.
Monkey King
* Low-health, normally mobile carries who rely entirely on raw attack damage are vulnerable to Bane's nukes and disables: 
Anti-Mage, 
Clinkz, 
Drow Ranger, 
Faceless Void, 
Gyrocopter, Juggernaut, 
Meepo, 
Mirana, Monkey King, 
Morphling, Phantom Assassin, Phantom Lancer, Riki, 
Shadow Fiend, 
Slark, Sniper, Terrorblade, 
Troll Warlord, Weaver.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that can punish aggressive heroes, such as: Leshrac, Shadow Demon, Pugna, Death Prophet.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that can punish aggressive heroes, such as: Leshrac, Shadow Demon, Pugna, Death Prophet.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with stronger lane presence that can threaten to kill him: Batrider, Juggernaut, Ursa, Monkey King, Razor.
Night Stalker
* Phoenix turns night to day, overriding Dark Ascension during 
Supernova.
Monkey King
* 
Icarus Dive and Supernova can destroy the tree Monkey King is standing on.
* 
Fire Spirits reduces Monkey King's attack speed, preventing Monkey King from building up Jingu Mastery.
* Supernova can be casted next to Wukong's Command, forcing Monkey King to step away of it or to withstand its massive AOE damage
Additional:
* Icarus Dive, Sun Ray, and Supernova all destroy trees that Monkey King relies on to use his ability Tree Dance. If you spot him, you can quickly Icarus Dive in his direction and then follow up with Fire Spirits and Supernova. If you manage to cut the tree he is on, he will be stunned for 4 seconds and will be forced to take a lot of damage. However, most Monkey King players tend to build attack speed items to make use of their passive, Jingu Mastery, so a battle against a farmed Monkey King will depend on who gets the jump on the other first.
Night Stalker
* Void can interrupt Icarus Dive.
* His 
Crippling Fear's silence will shutdown a spell caster Phoenix.
* However, Phoenix punishes Night Stalker with Supernova because it will turn night into day, and it has a higher priority than 
Dark Ascension, effectively canceling the passive bonuses Night Stalker gets from 
Hunter in the Night.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that can punish aggressive heroes, such as: Leshrac, Shadow Demon, Pugna, Death Prophet.
Monkey King
* Heroes who are melee but cannot fight back against Eclipse will really struggle with Luna: Monkey King, Alchemist, 
Timbersaw.
Monkey King
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: Necrophos, Phoenix, Alchemist, Earthshaker, Razor, Tinker, Leshrac, Queen of Pain
Monkey King
* Burning Spears can put Monkey King's Tree Dance on cooldown.
Monkey King
* Heroes that can maintain vision on Monkey King can see when he uses Tree Dance: Bloodseeker, Treant Protector with Eyes In The Forest, Sniper, Weaver
Night Stalker
* Heroes that are hard to gank: 
Dragon Knight, 
Mars, Centaur Warrunner.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with illusions and summons can manfight Night Stalker: Terrorblade, Beastmaster, Broodmother.
Monkey King
* Power Cogs pushes Monkey King out of Wukong's Command, ending his ultimate.
* Rocket Flare allows Clockwerk to scout Monkey King in the trees, and chase him with Hookshot.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that have a weak laning stage: 
Spectre, 
Nyx Assassin, 
Clockwerk, 
Spirit Breaker, 
Omniknight, 
Pudge.
Night Stalker
* Crippling Fear can silence Faceless Void for a long time, preventing him from using his Time Walk and Chronosphere.
Monkey King
* Monkey King’s clones from Wukong’s Command and Aghanim’s Scepter are immune to Chronosphere, so it is a very bad idea to Chronosphere Monkey King with his clones around.
Additional:
* Monkey King’s clones from Wukong’s Command and Aghanim’s Scepter are immune to Chronosphere, so it is a very bad idea to Chronosphere Monkey King with his clones around.
* If Monkey King's himself is not caught inside Chronosphere, he can cast Wukong Command's next to it to force Faceless Void to scatter
Night Stalker
* Void can be used to cancel Requiem of Souls.
* Crippling Fear prevents Shadow Fiend from using Shadowraze or Requiem of Souls.
* With Dark Ascension and 
Gem of True Sight, Night Stalker can find and kill Shadow Fiend easily. He is also a tanky hero that can fight Shadow Fiend at any stage of the game.
Monkey King
* 
Requiem of Souls is easily interrupted by Boundless Strike, due to its long cast time.
* Shadow Fiend's lack of mobility and escape makes him an easy target to ambush with Primal Spring, especially during laning stage.
* Being close means he cannot use all three razes on you before you get your Jingu Mastery stacks.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that have a weak laning stage: Spectre, Nyx Assassin, Clockwerk, Spirit Breaker, Omniknight, Pudge.
Monkey King
* 
Dispersion will not do anything against throughout the game due to his high lifesteal with Jingu Mastery.
* Monkey King often buys 
Manta Style, which will deny 
Desolate benefits in 1v1 situations.
* 
Haunt will do nothing to stop people trapped within Monkey Kings ultimate.
* In all, Spectre is very easily pressured by Monkey King early into the game and is a very easy gank target to coordinate with your team.
Night Stalker
* Crippling Fear silences nearby heroes and cannot be dispelled, which hinders Rubick's way to retaliate when being jumped on.
* With Hunter in the Night and Dark Ascension, Night Stalker can find Rubick easily in teamfights. The two spells grants more than enough damage to hunt Rubick down without defensive items.
Monkey King
* 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.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that have a weak laning stage: Spectre, Nyx Assassin, Clockwerk, Spirit Breaker, Omniknight, Pudge.
Additional:
* Void's mini-stun and silence from Crippling Fear will stop Pudge from using Dismember or turning off his Rot.
* Night Stalker has naturally high health, strength gain and common itemization for survivability through magic resistance, making Night Stalker a poor target for Pudge.
Monkey King
* His low armor deters him from a trade,while Jingu Mastery allows Monkey King to retaliate.
* Buffed Boundless Strike heals Monkey King and can potentially execute Pudge.
* Monkey King can scout Pudge's positioning from the trees, making it easier for him and his allies to dodge 
Meat Hook.
* With a better-than-average strength gain, he usually survives Pudge's combo.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with weaker mobility will struggle to keep up with Night Stalker: Gyrocopter, Ursa, Drow Ranger
Monkey King
* Monkey King can scout Drow Ranger's positioning from the trees, and can jump on her without much trouble, disabling 
Marksmanship
* She lacks innate mobility to escape from Wukong's Command, whose bonus armor gives MK one extra edge in the fight
Night Stalker
* Heroes with silence such as Riki, 
Silencer, or Night Stalker prevents Skywrath Mage from using his spells.
Monkey King
* Skywrath Mage's very low health allows Monkey King to ambush and finish him off quickly.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that have a weak laning stage: Spectre, Nyx Assassin, Clockwerk, Spirit Breaker, Omniknight, Pudge.
Monkey King
* Jingu Mastery will still add stacks even through 
Guardian Angel.
* Monkey King can join a fight whenever he chooses to, meaning he can simply go directly onto Omniknight.
* During the laning phase, Jingu Mastery with Boundless Strike will kill off Omniknight, while 
Purification is weak.
* 
Heavenly Grace is useless against Monkey King's ultimate and Jingu Mastery bonuses.
Monkey King
* Monkey King can kill Chen or any of his allies with his physical damage burst from Boundless Strike and Jingu Mastery before he can use 
Hand of God.
* None of the neutral creeps have any abilities to destroy trees, which makes Chen an excellent target for ganks with Tree Dance and Primal Spring.
Night Stalker
* 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.
Night Stalker
* Puck cannot use any of its normal means to survive should Night Stalker catch it within Crippling Fear, and goes down quickly.
Additional:
* Void is a potent nuke that is devastating to Puck's low health pool.
* Crippling Fear silence can prevent Puck from casting spells, leaving it vulnerable.
Night Stalker
* Crippling Fear makes Night Stalker one of the best early game gankers to shut down Anti-Mage.
* Night Stalker's low mana pool causes him to take little damage from Mana Void.
Monkey King
* Heroes with blind of some sort can be a bad choice for Monkey King to go on: Broodmother, Riki, Keeper of the Light.
Night Stalker
* With Dark Ascension and Gem of True Sight, Night Stalker can easily find and kill Riki. Riki will also find it harder to kill the tanky Night Stalker than he would many other heroes.
Monkey King
* 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.
Monkey King
* Silencer's low mobility and lack of any stuns or roots makes him an easy target.
* Silence will not protect Silencer from Jingu Mastery's extra damage and lifesteal.
* Monkey King often buys Black King Bar, which can be used to negate silence debuff effects.
Monkey King
* Heroes that can maintain vision on Monkey King can see when he uses Tree Dance: Bloodseeker, Treant Protector with Eyes In The Forest, Sniper, Weaver
Night Stalker
* The long silence of Crippling Fear at night prevents Weaver from using his Shukuchi or Time Lapse.
* With Dark Ascension and Gem of True Sight, Night Stalker can easily find and probably kill Weaver.
* Hunter In the Night's attack speed bonus removes The Swarm's beetles very quickly.
Monkey King
* Heroes that lack burst damage will have a difficult time taking down Monkey King, and fare badly against Jingu Mastery: 
Legion Commander, Lifestealer, Weaver, 
Wraith King
Night Stalker
* The long silence at night prevents Clinkz from escaping with invisibility if Night Stalker can sneak up on him. He also has really low base health, so Night Stalker can usually kill him alone during one cast of Crippling Fear at night.
Monkey King
* 
Firestorm will do little percentage damage to a small HP hero like Monkey King.
* All aspects of Jingu Mastery benefits ignore 
Atrophy Aura's base damage reduction.
* Monkey King can get on top of Underlord easily at any stage of the game.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with weaker mobility will struggle to keep up with Night Stalker: Gyrocopter, Ursa, Drow Ranger
Night Stalker
* Heroes with low health: 
Lich, 
Crystal Maiden, 
Lion.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with low mobility that rely on spells: 
Zeus, 
Lina, Crystal Maiden.

* Heroes that have a weak laning stage: Spectre, Nyx Assassin, Clockwerk, Spirit Breaker, Omniknight, Pudge.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that have a weak laning stage: Spectre, Nyx Assassin, Clockwerk, Spirit Breaker, Omniknight, Pudge.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with mobility/escape mechanisms to dodge Ancient Apparition abilites, or to easily jump on him: Riki, Queen of Pain, Phantom Assassin, Windranger, 
Bounty Hunter, Spirit Breaker, Night Stalker, 
Storm Spirit, Juggernaut, etc.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with low mobility that rely on spells: Zeus, Lina, Crystal Maiden.
Night Stalker
* Any heroes with silences can negate the majority of Outworld Destroyer's damage output: Death Prophet, Night Stalker, Drow Ranger, Doom .
Night Stalker
* Heroes with low health: Lich, Crystal Maiden, Lion.
Monkey King
* 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.
Monkey King
* Heroes that lack burst damage will have a difficult time taking down Monkey King, and fare badly against Jingu Mastery: Legion Commander, Lifestealer, Weaver, Wraith King
Monkey King
* Heroes that lack burst damage will have a difficult time taking down Monkey King, and fare badly against Jingu Mastery: Legion Commander, Lifestealer, Weaver, Wraith King
Monkey King
* Heroes that lack burst damage will have a difficult time taking down Monkey King, and fare badly against Jingu Mastery: Legion Commander, Lifestealer, Weaver, Wraith King
Additional:
* Wraith King has no ability to destroy trees from Tree Dance.
* Monkey King tends to get Diffusal Blade, leaving Wraith King no mana to reincarnate unless Wraith King has his Aghanim's Shard.
* A reincarnated Wraith King is an ideal target for Wukong's Command.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with long disables, like Lion, Night Stalker, or Legion Commander, can prevent Oracle from using spells or items.
Night Stalker
* Heroes that have long silences, such as Night Stalker and Silencer, will prevent Abaddon from saving his allies effectively and disable the active component of Borrowed Time.
Monkey King
* Heroes with long animations can be frequently interrupted with Cold Snap: Earthshaker, Monkey King, Shadow Fiend Lina
Night Stalker
* Crippling Fear is a good way to shut down and gank Invoker in the early game..
* Void deals good damage to Invoker and makes escaping harder.
* With Hunter in the Night and Void, Invoker can't get away from Night Stalker and won't be able to catch him with Sun Strike during the night.
Monkey King
* Heroes that can destroy trees will deny Monkey King spots to jump on, or cause him to fall: Windranger, Nature's Prophet, Phantom Lancer
Additional:
* Nature's Prophet's Natures's Call can destroy trees while Monkey King is standing on them with Tree Dance, which will stun him for a good deal of time.
Monkey King
* 
Sprout will not protect Nature's Prophet from Tree Dance.
* Boundless Strike will interrupt attempts at 
Teleportation, and can reach Nature's Prophet inside the tree line.
Night Stalker
* Phantasm gives Chaos Knight a significant advantage against single-target damage dealers: Lifestealer, Wraith King, Night Stalker, Troll Warlord.
Additional:
* 
Chaos Bolt can stun Night Stalker outside of Crippling Fears relatively small radius.
* 
Reality Rift is a great way to force Night Stalker to fight Chaos Knight, a hero with massive health and damage output. It also forces Night Stalker's Crippling Fear off his primary target.
* Night Stalker doesn't have a lot of ways to deal with multiple targets, which makes him vulnerable to 
Phantasm illusions unless Night Stalker buys Aghanim's Scepter.
Monkey King
* Wukong's Command and Boundless Strike combo can easily cause havoc on Chaos Knight by destroying all of his powerful illusions.
* Chaos Knight without Phantasm cannot deal with Jingu Mastery at all.
Monkey King
* Heroes with blink or movement abilities, which are disabled by Pounce's leash: Anti-Mage, 
Earth Spirit, Faceless Void, 
Magnus, Mirana, Monkey King, Morphling, 
Pangolier, Phantom Assassin, Phoenix, 
Puck, Queen of Pain, Riki, 
Sand King, Spirit Breaker, Timbersaw, 
Tusk.
Night Stalker
* With Dark Ascension he can keep vision on Slark, disabling his 
Shadow Dance regeneration.
* Night Stalker is very fast so without the Pounce in lane, he can simply out distance him during the night.
* Slark is matched in night vision by only a few heroes, Night Stalker happens to be one of them.
Monkey King
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: Necrophos, Phoenix, Alchemist, Earthshaker, Razor, Tinker, Leshrac, Queen of Pain
Monkey King
* Alchemist has very bad armor and does not build armor items for the large majority of his build, so Jingu Mastery and Wukong's Command can be very deadly.
* 
Desolator, 
Sange and Yasha or Diffusal Blade can all be purchased to increase your damage against Alchemist or just to keep your movement speed high enough to match him while 
Chemical Rage is active.
* Monkey King is an agility hero and scales with armor, so 
Acid Spray loses it's effectiveness later in the game.
Night Stalker
* Night Stalker's most skills are single targeted which allows other Meepos to Poof, Earthbind and kill him.
Monkey King
* Tree Dance and Primal Spring allows him to chase a retreating Meepo.
* Boundless Strike gains critical strike bonuses and Wukong's Command can take down Meepo and his clones very quickly.
Additional:
* Monkey King can gain Jingu Mastery stacks on Meepo’s clones from 
Divided We Stand.
* Tree Dance allows him to sneak up on and gank a lone Meepo clone.
Monkey King
* Heroes that can keep Monkey King stunned for a long time can pose a threat: Axe, Centaur Warrunner.
Night Stalker
* Crippling Fear makes it so Axe might use 
Blink Dagger right into an AoE silence in the middle of everyone.
* Void cripples Axe's already bad movement speed and attack speed.
* Hunter in the Night makes it impossible for Axe to catch up to fleeing or escape from Night Stalker during the night.
* Lastly, Dark Ascension gives full vision over Axe before he initiates, making the opponents all recognize his location immediately and allowing Night Stalker to prevent it or vocally tell his team if needed.
* Night Stalker has very high strength gain, even in the lane, so a successful Culling Blade is very unlikely.
* Axe's 
Blade Mail will likely do nothing to Night Stalker because of his high health and certain requirements for him to do the most damage to be true.
Monkey King
* Heroes that can maintain vision on Monkey King can see when he uses Tree Dance: Bloodseeker, Treant Protector with Eyes In The Forest, Sniper, Weaver
Monkey King
* Monkey King is one of the few other heroes who can easily traverse through trees, counteracting Treant Protector's ability to hide in trees.
Monkey King
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: Necrophos, Phoenix, Alchemist, Earthshaker, Razor, Tinker, Leshrac, Queen of Pain
Night Stalker
* Night Stalker is one of the best heroes to find (and silence) Tinker in the trees during Dark Ascension.
Additional:
* Night Stalker can easily find Tinker in the trees during Dark Ascension.
* Void's mini-stun will stop Rearm and 
Keen Conveyance
* Crippling Fear's silence will prevent Tinker from fighting back, as Tinker relies on his spells.
Monkey King
* 
Proximity Mines can be placed near trees to detect Monkey King.
* Follow up with 
Blast Off! to destroy the tree, causing Monkey King to take high damage, fall from the tree, and become stunned.
Additional:
* Techies can turn his tree jumping ability against him, by placing Proximity Mines that will detect him near trees, and then destroying the trees around him with Blast Off, stunning him and dealing high damage, on top of him being silenced when the stun expires.
* Monkey King's mobility is also severely limited around Techies' mines as he will almost always trigger them due to the cooldown time between tree jumps. Monkey King will be forced to take mine damage or escape with Primal Spring.
Night Stalker
* Dark Ascension also allows Night Stalker to fly over Proximity Mines without triggering them.
* Crippling Fear is effective in stopping Techies from using Blast Off and Void is effective in stopping them from running to the safety of their mines.
Monkey King
* Tusk can 
Walrus Kick Monkey King out of Wukong's Command.
Additional:
* Tusk can Walrus Kick Monkey King from Wukong's Command, making his ultimate useless.
Night Stalker
* Durable heroes can stand against Tusk during 1v1: Axe, Dragon Knight, Night Stalker, Centaur Warrunner, Wraith King and more.
Monkey King
* 
Skewer and 
Reverse Polarity will often push Monkey King out of Wukong's Command.
Night Stalker
* Dark Ascension reduces vision for the enemy team, which makes it more difficult for Magnus to initiate with Blink Dagger and Reverse Polarity. It is also more likely that Night Stalker will scout out Magnus with Aghanim's Scepter and a Gem of True Sight, after which he can silence Magnus with Crippling Fear.
Monkey King
* Zeus is good against heroes that juke in trees or up cliffs, like Batrider, Monkey King, Spectre, and Tinker, by providing vision in any area with Lightning Bolt, or guaranteeing vision on enemies with Thundergod's Wrath.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with low mobility that rely on spells: Zeus, Lina, Crystal Maiden.
Monkey King
* Blinding Light can knock Monkey King outside of his ultimate, Wukong's Command and can blind him.
* Will-O-Wisp will stun Monkey King from Tree Dance by destroying his tree.
Additional:
* 
Blinding Light can easily push Monkey King out of Wukong's Command, as well as blinding him.
* Monkey King is vulnerable to burst damage, 
Solar Bind makes him more so
* However, Keeper of the Light can be easily ganked by Monkey King during early-mid game stage.
Night Stalker
* Crippling Fear prevents Keeper of the Light from using his spells to keep his team alive during team-fights.
* Dark Ascension is very strong against Keeper of the Light, as it allows Night Stalker to jump the backline and quickly kill the squishy Ezalor, especially when combined with the slow from Void.
Additional:
* Keeper of the Light's Aghanim's Scepter upgrade loses much of its power, due to Night Stalker being able to reduce the duration of daytime by a lot.
Monkey King
* 
Ball Lightning allows Storm Spirit to easily catch up to Monkey King, destroying a large number of trees, cancelling Tree Dance, and causing Monkey King to be stunned in the process.
Additional:
* Ball Lightning allows Storm Spirit to destroy a large amount of trees, negating Tree Dance. It also makes it easy to avoid Wukong's Command and Boundless Strike.
Night Stalker
* Storm Spirit is absolutely helpless if caught within Night Stalker's silence range.
* Common items a Storm Spirit will build will not remove the AoE silence.
Additional:
* Crippling Fear is a silence that can last up to 8 seconds during night, rendering Storm Spirit tied limited to his items in a fight.
* Dark Ascension allows Night Stalker to initiate on Storm Spirit across the impassable terrain around the middle lane, rendering Storm vulnerable in the early game and prevent him from snowballing.
Monkey King
* 
Blink allows Queen of Pain to avoid ganks and keep her distance, preventing Monkey King from building up Jingu Mastery.
* 
Scream of Pain and 
Sonic Wave will hit Monkey King when he is disguised, or on a tree.
* The large AoE and low cooldown also helps Queen of Pain hit the real Monkey King inside of Wukong's Command.
Night Stalker
* Night Stalker has a huge, almost instant silence through Crippling Fear. The main problem is that he can get it off while Queen of Pain barely has any vision of him if he creeps up to her during Dark Ascension. She'll have to play very carefully before she gets a Black King Bar or a 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity.
Monkey King
* Another hero that should not leave a special circle for his ultimate. The only thing to be afraid is Boundless Strike.
Monkey King
* 
Paralyzing Cask's short stun rarely prevents Monkey King from ambushing Witch Doctor.
* 
Death Ward's long channel is easily interrupted by Boundless Strike.
Monkey King
* 
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
Night Stalker
* May effortlessly get to and take down Disruptor.
* Void deals heavy single target damage and slow. Lacking innate escape mechanisms justs puts Disruptor in trouble
* Crippling Fear silences, and Disruptor is extremely dependant on abilities to work and to fend for himself.
* Hunter in the Night provides Night Stalker movement speed, attack speed and strengthens his abilities during night time, allowing him to easily catch up and obliterate Disruptor
* With Black King Bar, it's mostly assured to target down Disruptor.
Monkey King
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: Necrophos, Phoenix, Alchemist, Earthshaker, Razor, Tinker, Leshrac, Queen of Pain
Night Stalker
* Earthshaker must be careful not to use Blink Dagger or Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Enchant Totem to blink into Riki's 
Smoke Screen or Night Stalker's Crippling Fear, as these field effects will instantly silence Earthshaker and prevent him from initiating.
Additional:
* 
Fissure has a short stun and creates an impassable ridge. However, Night Stalker can fly over it during Dark Ascension.
* Night Stalker can find Earthshaker, disable his Blink Dagger with Void, and then take him out with Crippling Fear.
* Earthshaker may fail his blink combo against Night Stalker's team if he is not careful, as he can blink into the silence.
Monkey King
* Monkey King is also hindered by Track since he relies on trees to hide him from vision.
Additional:
* 
Track grants vision of Monkey King, even when he's in the trees.
Night Stalker
* Night Stalker's Crippling Fear at night prevents Shadow Walk for an extended period of time and his Void will make Phase Boots useless. If Night Stalker has True Sight, he can shutdown Bounty Hunter's sneak kill.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with stronger lane presence that can threaten to kill him: Batrider, Juggernaut, Ursa, Monkey King, Razor.
Night Stalker
* Heroes with weaker mobility will struggle to keep up with Night Stalker: Gyrocopter, Ursa, Drow Ranger
Night Stalker
* Heroes that are hard to gank:
Dragon Knight, 
Mars, 
Centaur Warrunner.
Monkey King
* If visible, Mars can knock Monkey King off his
Tree Dance with God's Rebuke, as well as Spear of Mars. Arena of Blood also destroys a large swath of trees, which can disrupt Monkey King's positioning and turn him vulnerable should he choose to hide in trees.
Jingu Mastery attacks simply by facing him with Bulwark.
Wukong's Command early by displacing Monkey King with a well-thrown Spear of Mars. Mars can also endure most of his clones with Bulwark.
Spear of Mars. Should Monkey King use Mischief to disguise himself, it will still hit him, stunning him in the process.
God's Rebuke easily pushes Monkey King out of Wukong's Command.
* Mars can endure
* Mars can end
Additional:
* Monkey King's natural reliance on trees makes him an exceptionally prime target for
*
