Lina
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Oracle
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Omniknight
* Fortune's End's AoE dispel will remove Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel.
* Fate's Edict can give spell immunity for protection against Omniknight's abilities at the cost of being disarmed.
Additional:
* Oracle can dispel Heavenly Grace (which he can also bait out with Fate's Edict).
* With Fortune's End, Oracle can dispel Guardian Angel in an area of effect.
Enchantress
* Heroes with little health or magic resistance are easily picked off with Oracle's magic burst, such as Skywrath Mage,
Crystal Maiden, or
Enchantress.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Omniknight
* Heroes who can harass Omniknight out of lane will keep him weak in the mid game: Viper,
Venomancer,
Clinkz.
Enchantress
* Untouchable won't mitigate Venomancer's magical damage, and Enchantress is vulnerable to magic damage.
* Both Venomous Gale and
Poison Nova lowers the amount of healing received by Enchantress and her allies from Nature's Attendants.
Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Omniknight
* Heroes who can drain mana can make Omniknight useless after he uses one or two abilities: Lion,
Anti-Mage,
Nyx Assassin.
Enchantress
* Vendetta can deal great damage against her. However, it requires an direct attack, so Nyx Assassin may have difficulties applying Vendetta on her.
* Enchantress's lack of mobility makes her a primary target for ganking with Vendetta.
* Spiked Carapace can reflect Impetus and stun Enchantress.
* Mana Burn can deal tremendous damage against her due to being an Intelligence hero.
Additional:
* Spiked Carapace reflects the damage from Impetus.
* Enchantress is a rather squishy hero, making her fall easily to Nyx Assassin's high burst damage.
Snapfire
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Omniknight
* Mortimer Kisses can reduce Omniknight's impact in teamfights. Omniknight's
Heavenly Grace cannot purge multiple stacks of
Mortimer Kisses. The damage is also magical, making Omniknight's ultimate,
Guardian Angel, useless.
Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk,
Snapfire,
Spirit Breaker,
Techies
Luna
[wiki] rating: 1.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)Omniknight
* Guardian Angel does not offer protection from Eclipse, though it will negate damage from
Moon Glaives.
* Luna's high magical damage from Lucent Beam and
Eclipse can often finish allied heroes before Omniknight can save them with
Purification.
Additional:
* Guardian Angel does not offer protection from Eclipse, though it will negate damage from
Moon Glaives.
* Luna's high magical damage from Lucent Beam and
Eclipse can often finish allied heroes before Omniknight can save them with
Purification.
Enchantress
* Enchantress has pitiful HP, even more pitiful than Luna, so Lucent Beam and
Eclipse will often harass and/or kill her through her Untouchable.
* With Moon Glaives, Luna can clear Enchantress's creep wave efficiently.
Additional:
* Though Enchantress's Untouchable can greatly reduce Luna's attack speed, and can go through any form of Spell Immunity, she has a pitiful HP so Lucent Beam and Eclipse can kill her very quickly.
* Moon Glaives allows Luna to clear Enchantress's creeps very efficiently.
Enchantress
* Heroes that create illusions: Spectre,
Shadow Demon,
Phantom Lancer,
Naga Siren,
Chaos Knight,
Terrorblade) or bring other units into the fight (such as
Nature's Prophet,
Lone Druid,
Chen,
Enchantress,
Meepo and
Arc Warden) can cause Eclipse to strike the illusions/summons unintentionally. However, in many cases Moon Glaives can resolve this issue and eliminate them before activating Eclipse, but that will require lots of farming for right-click items.
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 11%)Omniknight
* Heroes who can drain mana can make Omniknight useless after he uses one or two abilities: Lion,
Anti-Mage,
Nyx Assassin.
Enchantress
* Heroes that can jump on her: Slark,
Queen of Pain,
Anti-Mage
Lich
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 9%)Omniknight
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich,
Ancient Apparition,
Jakiro,
Disruptor.
Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Weaver
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Omniknight
* Heroes that rely on slows or low-duration stuns have trouble catching Weaver: Omniknight,
Lich.
Enchantress
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Viper
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Omniknight
* Heroes who can harass Omniknight out of lane will keep him weak in the mid game: Viper,
Venomancer,
Clinkz.
Enchantress
* Heroes with break can disable Untouchable for a while: Doom and
Shadow Demon (via
Aghanim's Scepter),
Viper,
Shadow Shaman with Hex Breaks talent.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)Omniknight
* Heroes who can drain mana can make Omniknight useless after he uses one or two abilities: Lion,
Anti-Mage,
Nyx Assassin.
Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Additional:
* Enchantress is very fragile without any form of magic resistance, allowing Lion to easily burst her down.
* Nature's Attendants is a slow heal, making it ineffective against Lion's burst.
* Enchantress lacks any escape mechanism apart from her raw movement speed, allowing Lion to disable her.
* Since Lion's damage comes mostly from his skills, Untouchable does nothing to mitigate it.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 11%)Enchantress
* All of Tinker's damage is magic/pure and completely ignores Enchantress's Untouchable. And Tinker's nukes can quickly decimate her small HP pool, sometimes even preventing Enchantress from even responding.
* As Enchantress relies solely on her primary attacks to deal damage, and rarely builds something to dispel it, Laser's Blind is particularly effective.
* However, Enchantress will probably build a Linken's Sphere against Tinker's Laser, so getting an additional disable is highly recommended.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Enchantress's lack of AoE abilities allows Broodmother to swarm her with Spiderlings.
* Spawn Spiderlings can kill enchanted creeps.
* However, keep in mind that Untouchable makes it harder for Brood to actually hit Enchantress, even if Broodmother is spell immune.
Additional:
* Enchantress can be easily overwhelmed with Broodmother's spiderlings from Spawn Spiderlings and Enchantress can only control one of them with
Enchant and she has no good waveclear (Spawn Spiderlings can also kill creeps controlled with Enchant).
* However, Untouchable's attack speed reduction can make it difficult for Broodmother to kill Enchantress even with any form of spell immunity.
Arc Warden
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 5%)Enchantress
* Magnetic Field makes Impetus miss; if Enchantress decides to enter the field, she is giving up bonus damage since Impetus deals greater damage at higher distance away from targets.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)Omniknight
* Global Silence takes Omniknight out of the fight completely.
* Glaives of Wisdom are a great harass vs Omniknight during the laning stages of the game, since it doesn't aggro creeps & ignores his high base armor. It deals pure damage, which means it can also go through Guardian Angel.
* Silencer's intelligence steal can also cause Omniknight to falter in the early phases as it reduces his ability to use his spells.
Brewmaster
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 1%)Omniknight
* Dispel Magic from {U:Storm} instantly removes Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel from Omniknight's allies in its radius of effect.
Razor
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Enchantress
* Static Link 's damage instants fully ignore Untouchable, combine with
Eye of the storm and high movement speed compare to Enchantress with no mobility, Razor can easily take away her squishy health pool.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Omniknight
* Song of the Siren will waste Guardian Angel.
* Ensnare fully works on Heavenly Graced targets. However, Ensnare is dispellable with any dispel, and so can be dispelled by Heavenly Grace.
* As an agility hero that relies on illusions, Naga Siren is one of the most natural Diffusal Blade carriers, the bane of every hero with a small mana pool.
Additional:
* Although Naga Siren relies mostly on physical damage, Song of the Siren can be used to time out
Guardian Angel, giving Naga Siren's team an easy opportunity to counter-initiate.
* Radiance allows it's owner to deal magical damage to multiple enemy heroes at once, and since Naga Siren often buys it,
Guardian Angel is not a very good ability for protection against Naga Siren.
* Likewise, Nuker build Naga Siren (which primarly consists of items such as Radiance,
Ethereal Blade,
Dagon and
Veil of Discord) can render
Guardian Angel useless. Although Nuker is not a role Naga Siren should be playing.
Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Omniknight
* Arcane Orb's pure damage penetrates Guardian Angel's defense.
* Astral Imprisonment's mana steal is devastating to Omniknight's already low mana pool.
Enigma
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Omniknight
* Heroes under Guardian Angel can be still damaged from the pure damage of
Black Hole and magical damage of
Midnight Pulse.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)Enchantress
* Enchantress has a very low health pool, allowing Zeus to burst her down quickly before she can heal off the damage.
* Zeus will not be affected by Untouchable, as he won't try to attack her with right clicks anyway.
* Zeus can stay out of her attack range while trying to kill her, especially if he has bought an Aether Lens.
* Most heroes would want to get on top of Zeus to kill him, but Enchantress does not have this option as doing so would severely limit her Impetus damage.
* The exception is the laning phase, where Enchantress can gank Zeus if she Enchants a good creep.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)Enchantress
* Windrun's speed allows easy pursuit or escape, while the evasion greatly reduces the threat of Enchantress's Impetus, especially when retreating.
* Shackleshot is a powerful disable if Enchantress gets too close to one of her own minions.
* Focus Fire can negate
Untouchable.
Marci
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Enchantress
* Untouchable doesn't work against Unleash, as Marci gains 1000+ attack speed for the fury combo.
* Enchantress' low health makes her a fragile target for Marci's damage blasts.
* Marci can use Rebound on one of her enchanted creeps to easily reach the Enchantress and negate the bonus damage dealt by her Impetus. It helps that most of her best creeps have a low attack range, creating a makeshift bridge towards their master.
Pugna
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Amazingly, Enchantress has even lower health than Pugna. Though she does pack quite a punch through Impetus, she can't use it if she is under Decrepify.
* Pugna's Magical DPS is way greater than the heal from Nature's Attendants, which will also harm her quite a bit if she's next to Nether Ward.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 25%)Omniknight
* All of Omniknight's abilities are valuable for Rubick to Spell Steal, and Omniknight has no throwaway ability to cover his last used spell.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Omniknight
* Doom applies a basic dispel upon cast, so it can remove
Guardian Angel.
* Casting Doom on Omniknight will also prevent him from healing allies with
Purification, or casting buffs like
Heavenly Grace and
Guardian Angel, basically turning him into a harmless creep.
Additional:
* Doom turns Omniknight into a walking creep, or completely takes out his buffed cores, also removing Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel in the process.
* With Devour used on Satyr Banisher, Doom will have access to Satyr Banisher's
Purge, which will allow him to remove Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel.
Enchantress
* An Aghanim's Scepter upgraded
Doom can be useful against heroes with troublesome passive skills while also disabling them for a long time:
Phantom Assassin,
Enchantress,
Huskar,
Underlord.
Omniknight
* Heroes with the ability to heal allies, or those with good defensive abilities: Chen,
Dazzle,
Io,
Oracle,
Omniknight,
Witch Doctor,
Winter Wyvern,
Abaddon, etc.
Medusa
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 1%)Enchantress
* Enchantress often has a small army of neutral creeps, allowing Medusa to hit her with a later bounce of her Mystic Snake.
Dark Seer
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 2%)Enchantress
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 4%)Omniknight
* Heroes that have a weak laning stage: Spectre,
Nyx Assassin,
Clockwerk,
Spirit Breaker,
Omniknight,
Pudge.
Centaur Warrunner
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Enchantress
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Underlord
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Omniknight
* In general, heroes with long cooldowns on their abilities or ultimate will struggle against the relentless pressure provided by Dark Rift or Fiend's Gate (Requires
Aghanim's Scepter):
Terrorblade,
Dragon Knight,
Omniknight.
Jakiro
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 12%)Omniknight
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich,
Ancient Apparition,
Jakiro,
Disruptor.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Omniknight
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich,
Ancient Apparition,
Jakiro,
Disruptor.
Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 10%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Additional:
* Untouchable is useless versus constant Arcane Bolts, and it doesn't help that her strength gain is the lowest in the game.
* A jungle Enchantress can weaken lanes and make Skywrath Mage's job easier.
* The magic amplification from Ancient Seal makes her even squishier to Skywrath and his allies' magic nukes.
Sand King
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Enchantress
* Sand King is a strong ganker, allowing him to shut down squishy heroes in the early game: Phantom Assassin,
Clinkz,
Sniper,
Enchantress,...
Primal Beast
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Omniknight
* Heroes who cannot escape from Trample early might be easy first blood. Heroes like Witch Doctor and
Omniknight should play very cautiously alone...
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 13%)Enchantress
* Heroes like Enchantress and
Chen, or heroes that make use of
Helm of the Dominator are weak to Crystal Maiden, as Frostbite can do wonders against
Enchant,
Holy Persuasion, or dominated creeps. Careful though, as an army of carefully controlled creeps (
Enchantress and
Chen) can hold many stuns that will cancel Freezing Field.
Additional:
* Frostbite does 1000 magical damage to Enchantress's creeps and roots them for 10 seconds, which hinders her ability to gank.
Techies
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk,
Snapfire,
Spirit Breaker,
Techies
Additional:
* Techies does huge amounts of magical damage, which will bypass Untouchable.
* Enchantress depends on abilities to do damage and heal, which Blast Off's silence prevents.
Invoker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 14%)Omniknight
* Heroes with naturally low mana can be easily shut down by EMP: Sven,
Tiny,
Wraith King,
Omniknight
Additional:
* Tornado dispels Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel from multiple targets.
* Guardian Angel is generally useless against Invoker as he primarily relies on magical damage.
* EMP depletes Omniknight's already small mana pool.
* Invoker's many disables keep Omniknight's team occupied until Guardian Angel times out.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Omniknight
* Heroes that can purge buffs can dispel Guardian Angel: Invoker,
Shadow Demon,
Oracle.
Additional:
* Demonic Purge can dispel Guardian Angel on the key target during combat, allow your allies to finish them.
Enchantress
* Heroes with break can disable Untouchable for a while: Doom and
Shadow Demon (via
Aghanim's Scepter),
Viper,
Shadow Shaman with Hex Breaks talent.
Omniknight
* Omniknight: An undispellable
Heavenly Grace can easily save a victim of Shadow Demon.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 6%)Enchantress
* Heroes that can jump on her: Slark,
Queen of Pain,
Anti-Mage
Additional:
* Untouchable won't mitigate magic damage, and a squishy Enchantress is very vulnerable to Queen of Pain's magic burst.
Muerta
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 13%)Omniknight
* Heroes with large physical resistance do not counter Muerta's Pierce the Veil such as
Omniknight or
Tidehunter
Meepo
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 1%)Enchantress
* Meepo can quickly kill Enchantress with a
Poof combo, rendering Untouchable useless.
Enchantress
* Enchantress's
Untouchable slows down Meepos attacks and
Impetus can deal heavy pure damage to a single Meepo, however once Meepo has closed the gap she is an easy target for Poof.
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Enchantress
* Battle Trance and
Fervor can help Troll Warlord deal with Encahntress through Untouchable.
Additional:
* Untouchable's attack speed slow is easily remedied by Fervor stacks and Battle Trance.
* Troll Warlord is a natural Silver Edge carrier, disabling Enchantress' Untouchable.
Omniknight
* Heroes who rely strongly on melee physical damage will fare badly against Omniknight's Guardian Angel: Phantom Assassin,
Juggernaut,
Dragon Knight,
Lycan,
Ursa,
Troll Warlord
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)Enchantress
* The burst damage from Timbersaw's abilities is more than enough to deal with Enchantress and her creeps.
* Timbersaw doesn't rely on his physical attacks, which makes Untouchable useless against him.
* Timber Chain can close the gap between them and minimize damage from Impetus.
* Bear in mind, however, that Timber Chain can also work against Timbersaw if used to escape and that Impetus can ignore Reactive Armor if Enchantress is not a primary target for Timbersaw or if he is disabled.
Enchantress
* Timbersaw has a difficult time against magical and pure damage: Lina,
Leshrac,
Enchantress,
Queen of Pain
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Omniknight
* Purification heals a teammate targeted by Reality Rift and heavily damages Chaos Knight and his illusions in the process.
* Guardian Angel blocks all of Chaos Knight's damage for a long duration.
Additional:
* Phantasms can be easily killed with Purification.
* Heavenly Grace dispels the stun from Chaos Bolt and the armor reduction from
Reality Rift.
* Guardian Angel works well against Chaos Knight's overwhelming reliance on physical burst damage.
Enchantress
* Untouchable will significantly slow down Chaos Knight's physical damage with Phantasm.
* Impetus deals double damage to illusions, making it effective against Phantasm.
Additional:
* Untouchable makes all of Chais Knight's attacks slow therefore he is unable to deal damage, especially his critical damage of
Chaos Strike, also enables Enchantress to escape easily from his attacks.
* However, Reality Rift can still pose a danger to Enchantress because Chaos Knight can decrease a good amount of armor, making it dangerous because of her little armor stat, as he can burst down Enchantress easily if any of Chaos Knight's allies can apply a break on Enchantress.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 11%)Omniknight
* The pure damage provided by Purification is a great addition for killing Ember Spirit, as well as a good way of saving teammates.
* Guardian Angel will temporarily save his allies from Sleight of Fist's physical damage, and Ember Spirit is not a hero that will get
Orchid Malevolence to counter it.
Enchantress
* Impetus will deal huge amounts of damage when he uses a Fire Remnant to escape.
* Flame Guard is useless against Impetus as it deals Pure damage.
* Enchant can be used to dispel Flame Guard.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 11%)Omniknight
* Being mostly a physical damage dealer, Sniper's effectiveness is greatly reduced by Omniknight's Guardian Angel.
* Omniknight's Degen Aura allows him to slow sniper and catch him. Sniper has to then use some escape item.
* Omniknight can also protect an ally from being finished off by Assassinate by using Purification, then using
Heavenly Grace which grants a massive strength boost.
Enchantress
* Range-reliant heroes: Sniper,
Drow Ranger
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Omniknight
* Guardian Angel can negate all the physical damage output during Chronosphere.
* When Faceless Void Time Walk's on top of an enemy it becomes a perfect target for Purification
Additional:
* Guardian Angel can negate all the physical damage output from Faceless Void during Chronosphere.
* If Faceless Void Time Walks on top of an ally Purification + Heavenly Grace can turn the fight around.
Enchantress
* Heroes that have an escape that doesn't disjoint projectiles: Mirana,
Faceless Void,
Magnus
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 18%)Omniknight
* In team fights, Guardian Angel renders Drow Ranger's physical damage useless, and Drow Ranger has no way to purge it.
Enchantress
* Range-reliant heroes: Sniper,
Drow Ranger
Ursa
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)Omniknight
* Heroes who rely strongly on melee physical damage will fare badly against Omniknight's Guardian Angel: Phantom Assassin,
Juggernaut,
Dragon Knight,
Lycan,
Ursa,
Troll Warlord
Enchantress
* Enchant can dispel Overpower.
* Enchant's slow can help kite Ursa in fights and also in lane.
* Enchantress can out harass Ursa in lane by using her long attack range and Untouchable, as well as out sustaining him with Nature's Attendants.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: -1.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk,
Snapfire,
Spirit Breaker,
Techies
Omniknight
* In the early game, Omniknight can look like an easy target for Spirit Breaker, but with Purification and
Degen Aura, what could be an opportunity could quickly turn into disaster.
* Heavenly Grace can be used to counter Charge of Darkness by minimizing the damage and lowering the stun duration with status resistance.
* Spirit Breaker's Greater Bash from all sources (Charge of Darkness or normal attacks) deals lesser damage if he is within the radius of Degen Aura.
* Due to this, Spirit Breaker's damage will always be lower when targeting Omniknight.
Enchantress
* Spirit Breaker won’t do much harm to Enchantress because of Untouchable and Nature's Attendants. Unless Enchantress is low on HP, Spirit Breaker won’t be able to catch her with mere spells.
Lycan
[wiki] rating: -1.4 (winrate: 57% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Omniknight
* Guardian Angel completely negates all of Lycan's damage since Lycan mainly deals physical damage.
* Purification can also be a problem for Lycan, as Purification deals damage around the target, which poses a problem for him and his summons.
Enchantress
* Lycan relies heavily on right clicks making Untouchable very effective against him.
* If he tries to run away Impetus will do huge amounts of damage.
Additional:
* She can Enchant one of the wolves to her side.
* Untouchable still slows Lycan's attack speed.
Magnus
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 15%)Omniknight

Magnus
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Omniknight
* Purification and
Hammer of Purity can easily catch Phantom Assassin once she jumps with
Phantom Strike in to attack.
* Heavenly Grace can be used to dispel slow from
Stifling Dagger, and disables from the items Phantom Assassin relies on.
* Phantom Assassin depends entirely on physical attacks and her damage output is 100% physical. Therefore, since she has no any sources of magical damage output and hates going for items that deal magical damage like Dagon,
Ethereal Blade and
Revenant's Brooch,
Guardian Angel will render her completely useless.
* Purification,
Heavenly Grace and
Guardian Angel can be used to save an allied hero before Phantom Assassin can finish them off with
Coup De Grace.
Additional:
* Purification and
Hammer of Purity can easily catch Phantom Assassin once she jumps with
Phantom Strike in to attack.

Kunkka
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Omniknight
* Guardian Angel makes allies immune to all physical damage, effectively causing Tidebringer to do no damage.

* Untouchable greatly reduces Chemical Rage's attack speed advantage.
Sven
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Omniknight
* Although Sven relies often on physical damage, an Aghanim's Shard upgraded
Storm Hammer can dispel Guardian Angel with its wide radius.
Omniknight
* Purification can heal allies while dealing pure damage to Sven.
* Heavenly Grace can remove Storm Hammer's debuff immediately or make it a very mediocre stun.
* Guardian Angel negate's Sven's massive damage during God's Strength.
* It should also be noted Sven can remove Omniknights active spells with Aghanim's Scepter.

Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Omniknight

* Purification and
Heavenly Grace are very useful against Arctic Burn, Splinter Blast and Winter's Curse as well.
Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Enchantress
* Since Untouchable pierces Spell Immunity, Lifestealer cannot burst her down even with
Rage; meaning she can heal herself back to full HP.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 3%)Omniknight
* Guardian Angel's near invulnerability denies Bloodseeker the bonuses from Thirst, preventing him from gaining the upper hand in teamfights.
* Purification's pure damage makes it hard for Bloodseeker to pursue enemies, and prevents him from replenishing his health by finishing off enemies.
Axe
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Omniknight
* Omniknight's healing prevents allies from dropping low enough for Culling Blade
* Heavenly Grace dispels

Elder Titan
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 1%)Enchantress
* Untouchable makes her heavily reduce Elder Titan's physical damage output on her without Spell Immunity.
* Enchant can purge
Astral Spirit's buff without Spell immunity.
* Nature's Attendants can protect her if she survives the full combo and manages to juke around.
Gyrocopter
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Omniknight
* Guardian Angel negates most of Gyrocopter's physical АоЕ damage.
* Heavenly Grace dispels Homing Missile stun.
Beastmaster

[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)Omniknight
* Purification prevents Legion Commander from killing her target, and will always hit her during Duels.

Spectre
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 11%)Omniknight
* Global Guardian Angel will protect his allies from Spectre's
Haunt, both when they are alone and in teamfights.
* Purification is a major problem for melee enemies, Spectre included, since they must be next to an enemy in order to attack. The AoE damage also allows Spectre to be singled out from her illusions.

Huskar

Chen
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 0%)Enchantress
* Chen can use Holy Persuasion on creeps controlled by Enchant.
* Ironically, Enchantress can Enchant Chen's creeps.
Enchantress
* Enchantress can turn Chen's own creeps against him with Enchant. The creeps still keep the health buff Holy Persuasion granted them.

* Riki usually buys Diffusal Blade to initiate, which renders Enchantress' movement speed useless, and is usually followed with
Smoke Screen.
* Riki can effectively hit Enchantress by Tricks of the Trade alongside with
Diffusal Blade and
Smoke Screen's initiation. For a hero like Enchantress, 3 to 4 hits from Riki is a big deal, unless Enchantress built
Force Staff earlier.
Omniknight
* Riki takes a lot of damage from Purification while ganking Omniknight's allies or himself.
* Heavenly Grace instantly purges the slow from
Diffusal Blade, while also providing a large amount of survivability for his victim.

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.

Guardian Angel is generally useless against Lina as she primarily relies on magical damage. Lina can also dispel it with
Eul's Scepter of Divinity as she is a hero who often goes for it.
Eul's Scepter of Divinity can later be upgraded into
Wind Waker, which will allow Lina to escape from Omniknight.
Laguna Blade can often finish off Omniknight's allies before he can save them with
Purification and
Heavenly Grace. This can become even worse once Lina picks
Laguna Blade damage is pure and pierces spell immunity talent, which will allow it to ignore both, any form of spell immunity and
Guardian Angel.
