Omniknight
* Heroes that have a weak laning stage: 
Spectre, 
Nyx Assassin, 
Clockwerk, 
Spirit Breaker, 
Omniknight, 
Pudge.
Techies
* 
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.
Omniknight
* Heroes under 
Guardian Angel can be still damaged from the pure damage of 
Black Hole and magical damage of 
Midnight Pulse.
Techies
* Heroes with summons like 
Broodmother, 
Enigma, 
Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like 
Naga Siren, 
Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
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.
Techies
* Shadow Demon's spammable illusions can be used to scout Techies' 
Proximity Mines.
Omniknight
* Heroes who can harass Omniknight out of lane will keep him weak in the mid game: 
Viper, 
Venomancer, 
Clinkz.
Techies
* 
Corrosive Skin will protect Viper from Techies' magical damage.
* Even though Reactive Tazer will disarm Viper if he attacks Techies with 
Poison Attack, he does lots of damage with his other abilities that can still kill Techies.
Omniknight
* Heroes who can drain mana can make Omniknight useless after he uses one or two abilities: 
Lion, 
Anti-Mage, Nyx Assassin.
Techies
* Thanks to 
Counterspell's magic resistance, Anti-Mage has a good chance of surviving a Blast Off combo.
* Anti-Mage is a natural 
Manta Style carrier, meaning he can dispel the silence from Blast Off and blink away when Techies initiates on him.
Omniknight
* Even though Naga Siren relies on direct attacks to deal damage for most of the time, Song of the Siren allows her to easily waste Guardian Angel.
* Ensnare fully works on targets affected with 
Heavenly Grace. 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. Naga Siren can also buy items that deal magical damage like 
Radiance, 
Dagon, 
Ethereal Blade, 
Revenant's Brooch, 
Veil of Discord and 
Gleipnir to attack Omniknight's allies protected with Guardian Angel.
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.
Techies
* Heroes with summons like Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
Omniknight
* Heroes who can harass Omniknight out of lane will keep him weak in the mid game: Viper, Venomancer, Clinkz.
Techies
* Plague Wards may reveal a hiding Techies. If there's a sentry nearby, they may also reveal a stack of mines hidden in a juking spot.
Omniknight
* Heroes who can drain mana can make Omniknight useless after he uses one or two abilities: Lion, Anti-Mage, Nyx Assassin.
Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, 
Drow Ranger, 
Magnus, 
Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.
Techies
* Aphotic Shield makes it less likely for allies to be killed by mines.
* Because they explode in very short intervals, a stack of 
Remote Mines will always trigger Borrowed Time, making them impossible to kill Abaddon unless his resistances are lowered enough or Abaddon is affected by Break.
* Abaddon can easily dispel the long-lasting root of 
Stasis Trap on himself and on an ally, while at the same also providing protection against the other mines' damage.
Additional:
* 
Borrowed Time's automatic activation will help Abaddon survive a field of Proximity Mines or a Blast Off combo. However, the damage from a single mine can kill him if his HP is low enough.
* 
Aphotic Shield's can easily break Techies' Etheral Blade combo.
Techies
* Familiars can fly over the mines, rendering them safe from damage of Techies's mines. Visage can also use Familiars to check for mines on the map.
* Techies's low attack speed and damage will give them a hard time in destroying Visage's Familiars, and that can become even worse if they are affected by 
Grave Chill.
* 
Gravekeeper's Cloak allows Visage to survive Damage from Techies's mines.
Techies
* Wraith King's skeletons from 
Vampiric Spirit keeps the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
* Wraith King is not afraid to go into a field of Proximity Mines, wherever he goes as long as 
Reincarnation is off cooldown .
Additional:
* Wraith King is not afraid to walk into mines, whenever he goes with his Reincarnation ready.
Techies
* Rage protects Lifestealer from all of Techies's abilities. 
Reactive Tazer's disarm will also not work on Lifestealer under Rage.
* Rage can also be used to trigger Techies's Proximity Mines safely.
Additional:
* Lifestealer's 
Rage lets him clear Proximity Mines without taking damage, and allows him to hit heroes whom Techies has used Reactive Tazer on.
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.
Omniknight
* 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 
Repel. 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.
Omniknight
* 
Dispel Magic from {U:Storm} instantly removes Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel from Omniknight's allies in its radius of effect.
Omniknight
* Jakiro's area-of-effect abilities that deal magical damsge make it hard for Omniknight to save multiple enemy heroes at once with Purification and Repel, and Guardian Angel and to harass Omniknight on lane.
* 
Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Macropyre allows Jakiro to deal pure damage and slow enemy heroes which can pierce debuff immunity, rendering both Repel and Guardian Angel useless.
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.
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.
* Likewise, Luna's high physical damage from Moon Glaives and 
Lunar Blessing is strong enough to counter debuff immunity from Repel.
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.
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.
Techies
* 
Refraction can be very useful in safely neutralizing Proximity Mine fields, or absorbing Techies' Blast Off combo.
Techies
* 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.
* If Techies is hit with a Sacred Arrow, he can be killed before he has a chance to use 
Blast Off!.
* Mirana has a high attack range to destroy his traps from a safe distance.
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 Repel 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.
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.
Techies
* As long as Batrider is under the effect of Firefly, he can safely fly over Proximity Mines (He does not receive vision over the mines).
Techies
* Any hero with a low HP pool is easy for Tinker to nuke down: 
Crystal Maiden, 
Enchantress, 
Gyrocopter, Lion, 
Riki, 
Techies, Terrorblade, 
Necrophos, Invoker.
Techies
* Slow heroes that have a hard time escaping the Echo Stomp radius: Crystal Maiden, Pudge, Techies.
Techies
* Heroes with summons like Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
Omniknight
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: 
Lich, 
Ancient Apparition, 
Jakiro, 
Disruptor.
Omniknight
* Heroes who can harass Omniknight out of lane will keep him weak in the mid game: Viper, Venomancer, Clinkz.
Omniknight
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich, Ancient Apparition, Jakiro, Disruptor.
Omniknight
* Heroes who cannot escape from Trample early might be easy first blood. Heroes like 
Witch Doctor and Omniknight should play very cautiously alone...
Techies
* Heroes with summons like Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
Omniknight
* Heroes with naturally low mana can be easily shut down by E.M.P.: 
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.
* 
E.M.P. depletes Omniknight's already small mana pool.
* Invoker's many disables keep Omniknight's team occupied until Guardian Angel times out.
Techies
* Illusions can be sent out to destroy Techies mines.
Omniknight
* Impetus is not blocked by Guardian Angel. A {U:Satyr Banisher} can also be controlled to dispel Guardian Angel.
Additional:
* Enchantress's 
Impetus deals pure damage instead of physical damage and ignores Guardian Angel, thus fully negating one of Omniknight's most important abilities for teamfights.
* Similar to Doom, Enchantress can use 
Enchant on Satyr Banisher, which will give her access to Satyr Banisher's Purge, and allow her to remove Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel.
Techies
* 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.
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.
Techies
* Techies has great area of effect damage to deal with Phantasm illusions.
* Blast Off silences Chaos Knight, stopping him from using his disables and allowing his teammates to walk away from his heavy damage.
* Reactive Tazer will disarm all of Chaos Knight's illusions even if he has activated his 
Black King Bar.
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.
* 
Degen Aura can hinder Riki's positioning tactics and put a heavy toll on Riki's already poor movement speed.
* Omniknight can easily save his allies by using Guardian Angel in combat.
Techies
* Techies is very good against roaming supports and gankers such as 
Bounty Hunter, Riki, 
Weaver, 
Earthshaker, Nyx Assassin, etc. that are constantly moving around the map.
Omniknight
* Omniknight with Heavenly Grace
* Heroes that can remove the Track debuff with their skills:
* 
Abaddon with Aphotic Shield and Borrowed Time
* 
Huskar with 
Life Break
* 
Juggernaut with 
Blade Fury
* 
Legion Commander with 
Press the Attack

Doppelganger
* 
Slark with 
Dark Pact
* 
Ursa with 
Enrage
* Weaver with 
Time Lapse
* 
Tidehunter with 
Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Techies
* Techies is very good against roaming supports and gankers such as Bounty Hunter, Riki, Weaver, Earthshaker, Nyx Assassin, etc. that are constantly moving around the map.
Techies
* Morphling usually has low max health due to shifting strength into agility, which combined with Blast Off's silence will prevent him from using 
Waveform and 
Adaptive Strike (Strength), leaving him defenseless and making him an easy target to burst down.
Techies
* Techies can easily catch Chen off guard and kill him quickly with Blast Off! and Ethereal Blade combo, especially because Blast Off! can silence Chen and stun him when upgraded with 
Aghanim's Shard.
* However, Chen's converted creeps can trigger Proximity Mines, wasting them.
Techies
* After using Snowball, Tusk can't control where he's going, allowing Techies to make him roll onto mines.
Techies
* Remote Mines are frequently placed in trees, and can thus kill an unwary Hoodwink should she 
Scurry away due to her low HP pool.
* Blast Off! can clear out trees, denying the tactical advantages from Scurry.
Omniknight
* Guardian Angel negates most of Gyrocopter's physical АоЕ damage.
* Heavenly Grace dispels Homing Missile stun.
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 and Repel which grants a massive strength boost.
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.
* Degen Aura will prevent Spectre from chasing Omniknight, further exacerbated by her terrible mobility outside Haunt.
Techies
* If Storm Spirit isn't careful, he could fall into a trap set by Techies and another hero acting as bait.
* Stasis Trap roots Storm Spirit for 2/3/4/5 seconds and Blast Off! silences for 4/5/6/7 seconds, which effectively prevents Storm Spirit from using 
Ball Lightning to escape for a lengthy duration.
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.
Omniknight
* Slark's dependence on Pounce and close range makes him very easy to hit with Purification and 
Hammer of Purity.
* Slark's damage, even with a high count of Essence Shift stacks, is easily negated by Omniknight's heals and Guardian Angel.
Omniknight
* In the early game, Omniknight can look like an easy target for Spirit Breaker, but with Purification and Hammer of Purity, what could be an opportunity could quickly turn into disaster.
* Repel 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) will deal no damage at all if Omniknight and his allies are protected with presence.
* Due to this, Spirit Breaker's damage will always be lower when targeting Omniknight.
Omniknight
* Guardian Angel protects allies from Death Ward's physical damage.
* Purification and Heavenly Grace will most likely save teammates from dying to Maledict.
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.
* Heavenly Grace can be used to dispel slow from Stifling Dagger, and disables from the items Phantom Assassin relies on.

Techies
* Reactive Tazer can lock multiple Meepos in place and prevent them from Poofing.
* Proximity Mines, 
Sticky Bomb and Blast Off! can deal heavy magic damage to multiple Meepos.
Omniknight
* Purification does great damage to Clockwerk when fighting an enemy inside Power Cogs.
* Due to Clockwerk's very low damage output, Omniknight will have more than enough time to Purification and Heavenly Grace any enemy hero Clockwerk initiates on.
* For the same reasons, Omniknight also makes a powerful ally for Clockwerk when the situation is reversed.
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.
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.
Omniknight
* Guardian Angel completely counters 
Winter's Curse if Omniknight is able to cast it.
Additional:
* Guardian Angel completely counters Winter's Curse, allowing his team to survive Winter Wyvern's initiation.
* Purification and Repel are very useful against Arctic Burn, Splinter Blast and Winter's Curse as well.
Omniknight
* Omniknight's healing prevents allies from dropping low enough for 
Culling Blade
* Heavenly Grace dispels 
Battle Hunger.
* Axe also tends to get close to allied heroes in order to damage them with his 
Counter Helix, which can easily be punished by Purification.
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
Omniknight
* Heroes with spell immunity or pseudo-blinks which provide invulnerability: Lifestealer, Juggernaut, Omniknight, Huskar, and

Bane,

* 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
Techies
* Heroes with summons like Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
Techies
* Techies deals lots of magical damage with Sticky Bomb, Blast Off! and Proximity Mines that bypasses Terrorblade's high armor and can punish his low max life.
* Sticky Bomb is easy to land on a large clump of Terrorblade illusions and will damage and slow Terrorblade and all of his illusions if he can't quickly move the right one away.
* Reactive Tazer upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter can be used to protect an ally getting attacked by Terrorblade. Further, it disarms all of his illusions even while he has activated Black King Bar, greatly decreasing his damage.
* Blast Off! stuns Terrorblade, preventing him from casting 
Sunder.
Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, Drow Ranger, Magnus, Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.
Omniknight
* Repel can be used to dispel 
Gust on the allies affected by it.
* In team fights, Guardian Angel renders Drow Ranger's physical damage useless, and Drow Ranger has no way to purge it. And to make thing worse, Drow Ranger is not a common 
Nullifier wielder to counter this problem at all.
Omniknight
* Heroes with large magical AoE damage will fare well against Omniknight: Lich, Ancient Apparition, Jakiro, Disruptor.
Omniknight
* Purification allows Omniknight to keep a hero trapped in the Static Storm alive.
* Repel is a reliable source of immunity to the effects of Static Storm.
Techies
* Heroes with low health will die easily during Duels, and can be farmed for damage in the early game: Crystal Maiden, Lich, Techies, 
Rubick
Omniknight
* Purification prevents Legion Commander from killing her target, and will always hit her during Duels.
* Guardian Angel completely wastes Duel's duration and can save an ally across the map when upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter.
Additional:
* Both Guardian Angel and Purification are perfect counters against 
Duel.
Omniknight
* Heroes with large physical resistance do not counter Muerta's 
Pierce the Veil such as Omniknight or Tidehunter.

Tinker, Jakiro, 
Lina, 
Luna, 
Pugna or 
Ogre Magi, Enigma, 
Batrider, Techies, Broodmother, 
Dawnbreaker, 
Shadow Shaman, Bane, Tinker, Venomancer, 
Arc Warden.
Omniknight
* 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.
Techies
* 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.
Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, Drow Ranger, Magnus, Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.

* Heroes that can save their allies can be a big problem for Mars: 
Dazzle, Omniknight.
Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, Drow Ranger, Magnus, Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.

Alchemist, 
Treant Protector, Lina, Oracle, 
Zeus, Shadow Shaman, 
Phoenix, 
Razor, Huskar, Batrider, 
Kunkka, Tidehunter, Wraith King, 
Sand King, 
Medusa, Dawnbreaker.
Techies
* He can send wolves to defuse Proximity Mines, and he can catch up Techies and kill him before they can deny themselves. Even if the suicide is successful, Lycan can still survive because of his tankiness.
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.
Omniknight
* Heroes who can drain mana can make Omniknight useless after he uses one or two abilities: Lion, Anti-Mage, Nyx Assassin.
Techies
* Some abilities deals damage from an independent source and not from the hero itself, so Nyx cannot counter them with Spiked Carapace: illusions or summoning units, 
Homing Missile, 
Nimbus, 
Mass Serpent Ward, 
Death Ward and especially Techies's mines.
Techies
* Juggernaut can trigger Proximity Mines while in Blade Fury, and can walk away from a initiation with Blast Off if Blade Fury is activated before the silence.
* Juggernaut ignores Reactive Tazer when he uses 
Omnislash, whether Techies used it to protect an ally or themselves.
Omniknight

Techies
* 
Exorcism's ghosts will automatically clear all Proximity Mines revealed when Death Prophet walks near them, provided that the ghosts do not have a specific target at that time.
* Death Prophet is a natural Eul's Scepter of Divinity carrier, meaning she can easily escape a Blast Off initiation.
Omniknight
* Guardian Angel nullifies the physical damage from Exorcism during teamfights. And when upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter, it also prevents Death Prophet from pushing towers. However, Death Prophet can partially counter this issue with Eul's Scepter of Divinity, a common item on Death Prophet.
* Heavenly Grace dispels 
Silence.
Additional:
* Exorcism's damage is blocked by Guardian Angel.
* Heavenly Grace can dispel Silence allies if Omniknight is able to cast it.
Omniknight
* Although Sven relies often on physical damage, an Aghanim's Scepter 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 negates Sven's massive damage during God's Strength.

Omniknight
* Heroes with long cooldowns on their abilities or ultimate will struggle against the relentless pressure provided by 
Fiend's Gate: Terrorblade, Dragon Knight, Omniknight.
Techies
* Heroes that provide vision will see Fiend's Gate coming: Techies, 
Templar Assassin, Treant Protector.
Omniknight
*
Fortune's End's AoE dispel will remove Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel.

Guardian Angel in an area of effect.
Additional:
* Oracle can dispel
* With Fortune's End, Oracle can dispel
Techies
* Oracle can negate all of Techies' skills with Fate's Edict, as they are all magic damage. Fate's Edict can also be used to search and trigger
Proximity Mines when crossing mined territory.
Reactive Tazer off Techies, as well as the silence from
