Queen of Pain
* Because Queen of Pain's spells cost a decent amount of mana, Anti-Mage can easily use 
Mana Void if she spams her spells recklessly.
* Anti-Mage has similar mobility through 
Blink, which can allow him to catch up to or flee from her.
* 
Counterspell will reduce the damage done by Shadow Strike and Scream of Pain. Additionally, its active component also reflects Shadow Strike back at her if Anti-Mage times it right.
Oracle
* Anti-Mage can withstand magical burst damage much better than other carries, making him effective against nukers: 
Lich, 
Necrophos, 
Oracle, and 
Leshrac.
Additional:
* Oracle has minimal damage potential against Anti-Mage due to Counterspell, and may even have some ability damage reflected at himself.
* Anti-Mage can easily overwhelm Oracle with 
Mana Break and Mana Void.
* Blink allows Anti-Mage to easily chase and take advantage of Oracle's low mobility.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with gap-closing abilities will be easy targets for Berserker's Call: 
Phantom Assassin, 
Faceless Void, 
Slark, 
Chaos Knight, 
Morphling, 
Queen of Pain
Additional:
* 
Berserker's Call prevents Queen of Pain from escaping with Blink and also pierces her 
Black King Bar.
* Due to her fast attack speed from 
Mjollnir, it will quickly trigger 
Counter Helix.
* 
Culling Blade finishes off Queen of Pain's low health pool before she gets a chance to escape, preventing her from playing the hit-and-run style often associated with Queen of Pain.
Oracle
* False Promise will not save an ally from Culling Blade if their health is low enough.
* Fate's Edict, offensively or defensively, does little to protect Oracle's allies from the majority of Axe's damage.
Queen of Pain
* Time Dilation affects Queen of Pain's low cooldown abilities, making them unusable for a long time, rendering Queen of Pain nearly useless.
* Chronosphere provides excellent lockdown against Queen of Pain, allowing for reliable kills in all stages of the game.
Additional:
* 
Time Walk and 
Backtrack allows Faceless Void to easily negate Queen of Pain's burst damage.
* 
Chronosphere prevents Queen of Pain from escaping with Blink, and her low survivability makes her an easy kill.
* 
Time Dilation will prevent Queen of Pain from using her low-cooldown spells or force her to buy Black King Bar or a 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity to dispel the debuff and re-engage.
Oracle
* Time Walk and Backtrack allow Faceless Void to easily negate Oracle's burst damage.
* Time Dilation is effective against Oracle's low-cooldown spells. Although dispellable with Fortune's End, it can still catch Oracle off guard if Fortune's End is on cooldown.
* However, False Promise is one of the best abilities in the game to delay or even potentially save any ally caught in Chronosphere. Combined with Fate's Edict, a well-positioned Oracle denies Faceless Void and his team from attempts at solo-Chronosphering key targets to open up a teamfight.
Oracle
* Any hero that can nullify effects of Chronosphere: (
Keeper of the Light with 
Aghanim's Scepter during daytime, 
Winter Wyvern), banishing him or Faceless Void (
Outworld Destroyer, 
Shadow Demon, 
Earth Spirit with Aghanim's Scepter) or protecting him in other ways (
Dazzle, Oracle, 
Abaddon) can greatly limit Chronosphere's potential.
Queen of Pain
* Chain of Earthbinds prevents her from using 
Blink, allowing Meepo to quickly kill her with Poof and attacks.
* Meepo tends to buy items with attributes, mitigating Queen of Pain's magical burst.
Additional:
* Meepo is the hard counter for Queen of Pain - chaining 
Earthbinds prevents her from using Blink for a long time, and without any other escape options, Queen of Pain cannot survive several 
Poofs and attacks.
* Meepo tends to build items with attributes, mitigating Queen of Pain's magical burst.
Queen of Pain
* 
Glaives of Wisdom's intelligence steal will heavily punish Queen of Pain, as the loss of intelligence means that her mana pool is also reduced, since she is heavily reliant on her abilities to be able to make an impact.
* In the laning stage, Queen of Pain's reliance on spamming Shadow Strike and Scream of Pain will be significantly hindered by 
Arcane Curse.
* 
Last Word and 
Global Silence will render Queen of Pain defenseless unless she has an item/ally to dispel the silence.
Oracle
* Oracle's reliance on spamming his spells can be easily hindered by Silencer's Arcane Curse.
* Last Word and Global Silence negates Oracle's attempt to save his allies with his spells.
* 
Fate's Edict is useless against Glaives of Wisdom's pure damage.
Oracle
* Fortune's End can nullify Arcane Curse, Last Word, and Global Silence, if cast at the right time with the right targets.
* Fate's Edict can prevent Silencer from attacking, which he relies on with Glaives of Wisdom, for a lot of his damage.
Queen of Pain
* Shadow Shaman has many disables to lock down Queen of Pain, preventing her from Blinking away, even through 
Linken's Sphere or her spell block talent.
* 
Mass Serpent Ward can tear through Queen of Pain's low health pool once she's locked down by 
Hex & 
Shackles.
Queen of Pain
* Blink and positioning is crucial for Queen of Pain. These factors are heavily countered by a good Glimpse.
* Static Storm is devastating for Queen as she relies heavily on her spells to inflict heavy burst damage.
Additional:
* 
Thunder Strike gives vision of Queen of Pain when she's trying to escape. When combined with 
Glimpse, her mobility and hit-and-run style can be negated.
* While in a team fight, 
Static Storm forces Queen of Pain to only use right-clicks.
* When combined with the 
Kinetic Field, she can only wait until she respawns.
Queen of Pain
* Blood Rite prevents Queen of Pain from escaping with Blink.
* Blink will trigger the extra damage from Rupture.
Additional:
* 
Blood Rite silences her, preventing her from initiating or escaping.
* With 
Thirst, even if she Blinks away, Bloodseeker can catch right up to her.
* 
Rupture will heavily damage Queen of Pain if she tries to Blink away.
* She is, however, one of the few heroes who can avoid the damage from Rupture if she successfully blink-walks.
Queen of Pain
* A good Nyx can reflect Queen of Pain's Sonic Wave with his 
Spiked Carapace, or even initiate a gank on her in 
Vendetta while she farms a creep wave with Scream of Pain.
* Her strength to intelligence ratio is bad enough that he should be able to kill her without even requiring a 
Dagon, provided he can get his full combo off.
Queen of Pain
* Smoke Cloud prevents Queen of Pain from using any of her offensive and defensive spells, rendering her unable to effectively react to Riki's attack.
* It's easy to dodge 
Sonic Wave by using Blink Strike & Tricks of the Trade.
Queen of Pain
* A good Centaur can catch Queen of Pain with a 
Blink Dagger and 
Hoof Stomp.
* 
Retaliate with 
Blade Mail reflects all of Queen of Pain's damage, especially Sonic Wave.
* 
Stampede grants a movement speed bonus, which can prevent Queen of Pain from initiating.
* 
Double Edge can shred her low health pool if she's not careful.
Oracle
* Oracle's burst damage is ineffective against 
Dispersion.
* Disarm provided by Fate's Edict is not as significant debilitation for Spectre as it might be for other carries since She can do damage even without landing attacks.
Additional:
* Oracle's burst damage is not enough to take down Spectre due to Dispersion.
* Disarm from Fate's Edict does not hinder Spectre that much, since she can deal damage even without landing a single attack.
Queen of Pain
* Sonic Wave is a bad choice in abilities if he and the 
Tempest Double both use Blade Mail to reflect the damage to Queen of Pain, potentially killing her outright if her health is low enough.
* 
Magnetic Field protects himself or his ally from Queen of Pain's attacks unless she has 
Monkey King Bar.
* One more advantage of Tempest Double is that he can deny himself if he is close to death with Shadow Strike's debuff.
Queen of Pain
* Ghostship helps your team soak up damage from Sonic Wave and 
Scream of Pain.
* Queen of Pain can't escape easily from X Marks the Spot - Torrent combo.
* Outlanes Queen of Pain on the midline, due to the fact that Queen of Pain has a small reserve of health at the beginning of the game, and she suffers very much from 
Tidebringer, which is why she is forced to either spend money on 
Tango, or skip creeps and run for bounty runes, and Kunkka at this time will gain an advantage in level and gold.

* Kunkka will catch her in 
X Marks the Spot and allow his team to kill her for stun from 
Torrent, because Queen of Pain has no way to avoid the cross X Marks the Spot before buying Black King Bar.
Queen of Pain
* Aggressively blinking is not going to end well against Luna, because Queen of Pain will be an easy target for 
Lucent Beam & 
Eclipse.
* Queen of Pain's HP is abysmal, so Luna can quickly kill Queen of Pain as soon as she initiates with Blink.
Additional:
* Aggressively blinking is not going to end well against Luna, because Queen of Pain will be an easy target for Lucent Beam & Eclipse.
* Queen of Pain's HP is abysmal, so Luna can quickly kill Queen of Pain as soon as she initiates with Blink.
Oracle
* Fortune's End cannot dispel 
Warpath stacks on Bristleback or 
Quill Spray stacks on allies.
* 
Bristleback can heavily reduce Oracle's damage output. With it, Oracle may accidentally heal Bristleback with Purifying Flames, especially if Bristleback has bonus magic resistance.
Queen of Pain
* Lina has a very long range of attack, which completely overlaps the range of Queen of Pain's abilities and attacks, which is why even a single 
Shadow Strike roll can become deplorable, since Lina will shoot Queen of Pain from a long distance before and after the Shadow Strike roll. And with the help of the abilities of 
Light Strike Array and 
Laguna Blade, Lina can even kill Queen of Pain because of her small health reserve if she is exposed to a blow
Additional:

And with the help of Light Strike Array and Laguna Blade, Lina can even kill Queen of Pain because of her small health reserve if she is exposed to a blow.
Oracle
* 
Elder Titan's 
Echo Stomp can turn into a 5 second stun on an ally under the effect of False Promise, as it delays all damage and makes it impossible to break the damage threshold of Echo Stomp.
Oracle
* Oracle cannot easily deal with swarms of units, making him weak against heroes like 
Phantom Lancer or 
Broodmother.
Queen of Pain
* 
Duels prevents Queen of Pain from using Blink, which may force her to purchase a Linken's Sphere
* Because Queen of Pain is also not a right-click hero, Legion won't have much difficulties in duels.
* 
Press the Attack dispels Shadow Strike's debuff.
Oracle
* Heroes with long disables, like 
Lion, 
Night Stalker, or 
Legion Commander, can prevent Oracle from using spells or items.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict prevents Legion Commander from attacking for a few seconds, potentially saving Oracle's ally.
* 
Fortune's End dispels Press the Attack's healing and attack speed buff, as well as the movement speed bonus from Overwhelming Odds.
* 
False Promise protects allies and prevents Legion Commander from winning Duels and gaining bonus damage.
Additional:
* Provided that the enemy team does not have an 
Axe, Oracle can guarantee that his ally survives for the duration of the Duel with False Promise and has decent nuke potential to help ally to win a Duel. He can also disarm Legion Commander with Fate's Edict.
* Oracle can dispel enemy buffs like 
Overwhelming Odds and Press the Attack with Fortune's End.
Oracle
* Heroes who can take advantage of Oracle's low mobility or catch him out of position, such as 
Clinkz and 
Anti-Mage, can easily pick him off.
Queen of Pain
* In early to mid stage, Silence is also a great way to counter escape oriented heroes such as Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, and Phantom Assassin to prevent them from escaping, provided that they don't have any basic dispels.
Additional:
* 
Silence will prevent Queen of Pain from using Blink to escape or chase.
* If Queen of Pain uses Blink to close the gap to Death Prophet, Death Prophet will be in range for 
Spirit Siphon and typically gain an advantage over Queen of Pain.
Queen of Pain
* High priority targets like Queen of Pain, 
Drow Ranger, 
Ember Spirit can't get caught out from Lion's long range disables, making it harder to them fulfill their roles, and making it easy to target them.
Oracle
* Heroes with long disables, like Lion, Night Stalker, or Legion Commander, can prevent Oracle from using spells or items.
Oracle
* Lion is extremely dependent on his abilities. Silences like 
Silencer's Last Word, magic resistance like Oracle's Fate's Edict, and dispels like Legion Commander's Press the Attack all make his abilities less effective.
Oracle
* Heroes with the ability to heal allies will not be able to heal heroes affected by 
Doom: 
Chen, Dazzle, 
Io, Oracle, 
Omniknight, 
Witch Doctor, Winter Wyvern, Abaddon, etc.
Oracle
* Heroes who are not easily crippled by Fate's Edict or Fortune's End, such as 
Timbersaw, or those who can dispel them, such as Phantom Lancer, can kill Oracle unhindered.
Queen of Pain
* Queen of Pain can be an effective tool against Batrider in the game and on the line. She has long-range abilities such as Scream of Pain or Sonic Wave and a long-range type of attack, which is why she can keep Batrider at a distance all the time, and prevent him from attacking with 
Flaming Lasso or 
Firefly. Queen of Pain has an effective high-deceleration ability against Batrider - Shadow Strike, which is why he cannot quickly set fire to all enemies under Firefly and fly between all Queen of Pain allies. In addition, Queen of Pain has a wonderful escape in stock - Blink, which can save her at any moment in which batrider decides to attack

In addition, Queen of Pain has a wonderful escape in stock - Blink, which can save her at any moment in which batrider decides to attack
Oracle
* False Promise dispels Flaming Lasso.
* Fortune's End can root Batrider after he uses Flaming Lasso. It can also dispel Sticky Napalm and Flamebreak.
* Fate's Edict when used on a Lasso'd target will leave them immune to magical damage, making it difficult to burst them quickly before the Lasso ends.
Queen of Pain
* Blink can instantly break Static Link, making it useless against her.
* Queen of Pain doesn't fully rely on her physical attack damage, so she can still fight after being hit with Static Link.
Oracle
* Fortune's End can catch out or impair position-based heroes with low mobility, such as 
Sniper or 
Razor.
Queen of Pain
* Queen of Pain can Blink to both escape and initiate onto Void Spirit.
* She is also a very common 
Orchid Malevolence carrier, which can prevent Void Spirit from contributing much in fights.
Oracle
* Heroes that can purge his slow and disables are very difficult to go on and their team: Abaddon, Oracle.
Queen of Pain
* Queen of Pain can be a good hero for dealing with Ember Spirit with Orchid Malevolence, her pure damage nuke in Sonic Wave and a slow in Shadow Strike. However, Queen of Pain can be punished by Ember Spirit, as his Searing Chains prevents her from getting Blink off.
Oracle
* Oracle can shut down both of Ember's early game abilities. Fortune's End can dispel 
Flame Guard on Ember Spirit and 
Searing Chains on allies.
* When Ember Spirit is affected by Fortune's End, his 
Fire Remnants move at 0 movement speed.
* Disarming him with Fate's Edict does affect Ember's 
Sleight of Fist ability, possibly making him useless for a few seconds in the late game without a dispel or spell immunity. This is especially good if he has a rapier or two. However, positioning for this is difficult when Ember plays far back.
Queen of Pain
* Dark Seer's only disable is Vacuum. Though he starts off with high armor and health, he'll eventually have a hard time dealing with high mobility heroes such as 
Weaver or Queen of Pain.
Oracle
* Fortune's End dispels Ion Shell and Surge, making any gank attempt on Dark Seer in the laning phase likely to succeed.
* Fate's Edict prevents all magical damage that comes from Dark Seer's abilities.
* Fortune's End dispels Ion Shell on creeps, which Dark Seer relies on to farm and zone.
Additional:
* Fortune's End can dispel 
Ion Shell, a skill that helps Dark Seer immensely in the laning phase, as well as 
Surge, a move-speed buff, effectively allowing Oracle to control Dark Seer, especially in the laning phase.
Queen of Pain
* 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.
Oracle
* False Promise can dispel the stun from Cold Feet and can save an ally that's about to shatter from Ice Blast, even allowing healing with 
Purifying Flames by delaying it until after the debuff expires.
* Purifying Flames allows Oracle to deny his allies if they're affected by Ice Blast. If he brings his allies' health to or below the shatter threshold, it will count as him denying the ally. However, this does not work on Oracle himself.
* Fate's Edict provides 100% magic resistance, making it good against all of Ancient Apparition's abilities at all stages of the game.
* Fortune's End can dispel Cold Feet from allies.
Additional:
* False Promise can prevent the shatter from 
Ice Blast and Fate's Edict can protect an ally from the magical damage over time for a while.
* Oracle can deny allies who are frostbitten. If he uses Purifying Flames to reach the shatter threshold, it will count as a deny.
* Fortune's End can dispel 
Cold Feet on affected allies, preventing them from getting frozen.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes that can jump on her: Slark, Queen of Pain, Anti-Mage
Additional:
* Queen of Pain often relies more on abilities than right-clicks, making 
Untouchable nearly useless against her.
* Enchantress also has a lower health pool than Queen of Pain, making her vulnerable to Queen of Pain's damage burst.
Oracle
* Heroes with little health or magic resistance are easily picked off with Oracle's magic burst, such as 
Skywrath Mage, 
Crystal Maiden, or 
Enchantress.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with high mobility can approach Sniper: Anti-Mage, Earth Spirit, Io, 
Nature's Prophet, 
Pangolier, 
Puck, Queen of Pain and most notably Riki.
Oracle
* Fortune's End can catch out or impair position-based heroes with low mobility, such as Sniper or Razor.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with strong area-of-effect damaging and/or disabling abilities will be able to intercept Underlord and his team when they exit from Fiend's Gate:

Queen of Pain
* Heroes with teleports to escape Solar Blind and Will-O-Wisp: Phantom Assassin, Puck, Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit
Oracle
* Heroes with dispels: Legion Commander, Oracle, Slark, Phantom Lancer
Queen of Pain
* Heroes that have superior mobility that can easily catch up with Mirana even after she used Leap to escape: Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit, Riki.
Oracle
* Heroes that can protect or dispel stunned allies such as Legion Commander, Outworld Destroyer, Shadow Demon and Oracle can reduce the effectiveness of Sacred Arrow.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with escaping and disjointing abilities can be good against Juggernaut:Anti-Mage Riki, Queen of Pain, Puck, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, Slark etc.
Oracle
* Heroes with abilities that can save teammates are also effective such as Shadow Demon, Dazzle, Oracle, 
Bane, 
Pugna, 
Tusk, Winter Wyvern, Io, 
Underlord, 
Treant Protector and Keeper of the Light.
Oracle
* 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.
* Oracle can dispel 
Reactive Tazer off Techies, as well as the silence from 
Blast Off!, with Fortune's End.
* Oracle can further delay Techies' burst damage capability with False Promise.
Additional:
* Fate's Edict gives 100% magic resistance, which prevents most of Techies' damage.
* Oracle's Fortune's End dispels Reactive Tazer buff from Techies allowing him to be attacked. However, Reactive Tazer will instantly perform the area of effect disarm that is normally applied at the end of the duration.
* Fortune's End will also dispel Blast Off silence, Techies' Etheral Blade, Proximity Mines' magic resistance reduction, and Sticky Bomb's slow. However beware that it will only dispel Sticky Bomb's first or second instance of slow and not the damage, which will trigger as normal.
Oracle
* Oracle can negate and shut down Primal Beast simply with Fate's Edict, especially in the early game, as a majority of his damage-dealing spells are magic.
* Oracle can interrupt Primal Beast's 
Onslaught charge with a well-timed Fortune's End.
* Primal Beast's lethal burst damage combos can be further stalled with False Promise; combined with Fate's Edict and regen from Purifying Flames, Oracle can even completely negate Primal Beast's offense.
Queen of Pain
* Queen of Pain, for the most part, almost exclusively deals magical damage, ignoring Windranger's evasion from 
Windrun.
* Queen of Pain is also a common wielder of Orchid Malevolence, preventing Windranger from using her abilities for a while.
* Blink, when used correctly, allows Queen of Pain to dodge 
Powershot and 
Shackleshot.
Oracle
* Fortune's End dispells Marci's 
Sidekick, removing additional damage and lifesteal.
* Fate's Edict disarms Marci, preventing her from attacking with 
Unleash. Also it is useful against Marci or her ally affected by Sidekick.
* False Promise is a great tool to save an ally focused by Marci.
Queen of Pain
* Queen Of Pain can similliar abilities from Anti-Mage Blink allows Queen of Pain to escape from an incoming Snowball and Ice Shards.
Queen of Pain
* 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.
Queen of Pain
* Blink makes it hard for Gyrocopter to pin down Queen of Pain.
* Sonic Wave is very effective at ganking Gyrocopter in the early game.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict can disarm Troll, rendering him useless in a teamfight, especially if he has already used Battle Trance.
* Fortune's End and Purifying Flames can provide ample magic damage to help burst down Troll Warlord quickly in the early to mid game.
* False Promise can save an ally from Troll Warlord's initiation, forcing him to switch targets and lose his Fervor stacks, or waste time during Battle Trance.
Queen of Pain
* Queen of Pain can easily escape Chain Frost thanks to Blink.
* His low survivability makes an easy kill for Shadow Strike, Scream of Pain & Sonic Wave.
Oracle
* Fortune's End not being disjointable is almost an ensured disable if Dark Willow tries to escape with Shadow Realm. Dispels Cursed Crown and Terrorize.
* Fate's Edict negates all her magic damage in case she catches a single hero.
* False Promise's strong dispel removes Dark Willow's disables.
Additional:
* Fortune's End can easily dispel 
Cursed Crown before it times out and stuns. He can also save a stunned ally with False Promise.
* Fate's Edict can easily negate 
Bedlam's over-time damage, since the spell provides no form of control. Similarly, he can also negate the magic burst from 
Shadow Realm.
* Fortune's End can dispel the fear effect from 
Terrorize, and it can remove the root from Bramble Maze if cast quick enough. Be mindful that Fortune's End only dispels your allies' debuffs on the primary target.
Oracle
* Oracle's Fate's Edict will protect an ally from Leshrac's nuking damage.
* Oracle's False Promise can dispel Leshrac's stun and slow from his abilities, allowing an ally to escape.
* Fortune's End can stop Leshrac from chasing opponents or running away.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict allows Oracle to make allies spell immune, allowing him to save allies from Jakiro's spells.
* Fate's Edict can be cast onto Jakiro to disarm him and prevent him from pushing with his Liquid Fire.
* False Promise allows Oracle to free allies from Jakiro's Ice Path.
Oracle
* It is especially easy for Oracle to negate the damage from Maledict, and even heal through it with Fate's Edict and Purifying Flames.
* If by some miracle an enemy is still about to die because of Maledict, he can still save him with False Promise.
Oracle
* Fortune's End's AoE dispel will remove Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel.
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.
Oracle
* Phoenix does significant magic damage over time which can either be dispelled or negated by Fate's Edict.
* Oracle's burst damage potential can prove lethal to Phoenix, as they already have to sacrifice health to cast their basic skills.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict gives full immunity from Ogre Magi's mostly magical damage.
* Fortune's End can dispel Ignite (when used on allies) and Bloodlust (when used on enemies).
* False Promise can dispel Ignite and Fireblast.
Oracle
* All of Pugna's damage is magical, which can get blocked by Fate's Edict's 100% magic resistance.
* Oracle has two abilities that apply a dispel, which can easily remove Decrepify on his ally or Oracle.
Oracle
* Fortune's End applies a basic dispel which can be used to dispel Corrosive Haze, or even Slardar's own Guardian Sprint.
* False Promise is able to dispel Corrosive Haze and Slithereen Crush stun/slow from any allies Oracle chooses to cast it on.
* Fate's Edict can also be cast on Slardar to prevent him from proccing his Bash of the Deep.
Queen of Pain
* Queen of Pain usually outlanes Invoker, giving her team a significant early game advantage while Invoker is still farming.
* Blink allows Queen of Pain to escape from Invoker's combo if he doesn't have disables.
Queen of Pain
* Blink allows Quen of Pain to easily escape ganking or initiating attempts with Hookshot and Power Cogs.
Queen of Pain
* Husker is the kind of hero that likes to remain at low health, which is perfect for Queen of Pain to burst with Sonic Wave.
* She should be able to Blink away after he jumps on her with 
Life Break.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict cripples many heroes who rely on attacks, such as Phantom Assassin, 
Sven, or Enchantress, without a dispel or a Black King Bar.
Queen of Pain
* Blinking heroes like Anti-Mage or Queen of Pain can often chase down an injured Brewmaster after his ultimate expires.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with considerable mobility can easily escape from a rolling Pangolier: Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, 
Void Spirit, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, Earth Spirit, moreover, if a player is familiar with how Rolling Thunder works, they can adjust their movement to avoid it entirely and of course outplay the Pangolier player.
Oracle
* Heroes with high magical or pure damage will bypass Bulwark: Timbersaw, Dark Willow, Enigma, 
Invoker, Pugna, Skywrath Mage, 
Tinker, Zeus, Oracle.
Oracle
* Fate's Edict cripples many heroes who rely on attacks, such as Phantom Assassin, Sven, or Enchantress, without a dispel or a Black King Bar.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with high burst damage: Lina, Lion, Luna, 
Nyx Assassin, Queen of Pain.
Oracle
* Fortune's End and False Promise easily dispel many crippling debuffs, such as Venomancer's 
Venomous Gale, or Skywrath Mage's 
Ancient Seal.
Additional:
* Fortune's End can dispel Venomous Gale and Poison Sting from allies.
* Fate's Edict grants 100% magic resistance to target, inhibiting the damage from Venomancer abilities.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with mobility spells (such as Queen of Pain's Blink and 
Clockwerk with 
Hookshot) can easily avoid 
Lil' Shredder and 
Mortimer Kisses.
* Heroes with high movement speeds like Pugna and 
Meepo can run around, to, or away from Snapfire during Mortimer Kisses and dodge the projectiles easily due to their slow speed.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with mobility spells can quickly escape from Stroke of Fate or break out of Soulbind: Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, Morphling, Storm Spirit
Oracle
* Any hero who can counter-initiate in anticipation without getting caught in Reverse Polarity: Sven, Omniknight, Enigma, Luna, Naga Siren, Mars, Jakiro, Venomancer, Elder Titan, Faceless Void, 
Rubick, Keeper of the Light, Pugna, Invoker, 
Spectre, Alchemist, Treant Protector, Lina, Oracle, Zeus, 
Shadow Shaman, 
Phoenix, Razor, 
Huskar, Batrider, 
Kunkka, 
Tidehunter, 
Wraith King, Sand King, Medusa, Dawnbreaker.
Oracle
* Oracle with Fortune's End and False Promise
* 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
* 
Lifestealer with 
Rage and 
Infest
* Naga Siren with 
Mirror Image
* Omniknight with Heavenly Grace
* Oracle with Fortune's End and False Promise
* Phantom Lancer with 
Doppelganger
* Slark with 
Dark Pact
* 
Ursa with 
Enrage
* Weaver with 
Time Lapse
* Tidehunter with 
Kraken Shell when damage received reaches the threshold.
Oracle
* Heroes with area dispel can kill multiple skeletons at once: 
Brewmaster, Oracle.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes that depend on disrupting fights with ability combos or big ultimate abilities are vulnerable to the long stun of Fiend's Grip: 
Disruptor, Death Prophet, Enigma, Faceless Void, Invoker, Lich, Magnus, Mars, Medusa, Outworld Destroyer, Phoenix, Puck, Queen of Pain, Shadow Fiend, Treant Protector, Underlord, Winter Wyvern, Witch Doctor, Zeus.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes who commonly buy Linken's Sphere: Luna, Weaver, Morphling, Queen of Pain, Ember Spirit.
Oracle
* Heroes with strong dispels can dispel Bane's disables from their allies: Oracle, Legion Commander, Omniknight.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes who have a high mobility (Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit, Slark, etc.).
Queen of Pain
* Heroes that rely on their high mobility such as Queen of Pain, Slark and Weaver can be constantly engaged against due to your excellent ability to chase over any terrain. Make sure you carry true sight items (such as 
Dust of Appearance or 
Gem of True Sight) for invisible heroes that could potentially escape your clutches.
Queen of Pain
* Queen of Pain outlanes Storm Spirit due to the fact that it has long-range abilities: Shadow Strike and Scream Of Pain. Storm Spirit's damage from the 
Overload ability is not enough to interrupt her on the line, and the 
Static Remnant will never reach Queen Of Pain, as she will scatter her abilities from afar, which is why she will drive Storm Spirit off the line and get a lot of gold and level, after such a stage of the liner, Queen of Pain will very quickly buy Black King Bar and will not let Storm Spirit catch and kill her at the expense of 
Electric Vortex

Queen of Pain
* Heroes who rely on high mobility are especially vulnerable to Primal Roar: Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, Queen of Pain.
Oracle
* False Promise effectively nullifies Primal Roar's single-target initiation on allies.
* Purifying Flames kills Beastmaster's Hawk instantly and Boar with two casts.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes that have escape abilities (such as Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit or Timbersaw) can be either nullified by Reaper's Scythe or a complimentary item for Necrophos (like 
Rod of Atos or 
Scythe of Vyse). If Necrophos is quick enough and enters range, they can quickly, if not instantly, die if they are not quick enough.
Oracle
* During the laning stage, Oracle's Purifying Flames nullifies any damage that Heartstopper Aura might inflict.
* Fate's Edict and False Promise can protect an ally from Reaper's Scythe.
* Oracle can dispel Ghost Shroud with Fortune's End.
Additional:
* Fortune's End can dispel 
Ghost Shroud, negating the skill's utility. Also it's worth noting that Necrophos takes additional magic damage when in Ethereal state, which makes Purifying Flames a powerful nuke against him.
* Fate's Edict fully negates the damage from 
Reaper's Scythe, which its own delayed animation makes it relatively easy to predict and nullify.
Queen of Pain
* 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.
Queen of Pain
* Both Scream of Pain and Sonic Wave should hit Slark during his 
Shadow Dance.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes reliant on abilities to output damage or escape can be shut down by Gust: Queen of Pain.
Queen of Pain
* Often you can burst Drow Ranger down before she has a chance to try and 
Gust you away. Try to have a teammate bait her Gust out before you Blink and get the drop on her.
Oracle
* Because Oracle uses few, powerful instances of damage to kill enemies, 
Templar Assassin's 
Refraction and 
Visage's 
Gravekeeper's Cloak can absorb his burst damage.
Queen of Pain
* Weak damage but high tick rate or persist in a long time: Slark, Gyrocopter, Queen of Pain, Shadow Shaman (Shackles), Jakiro, Pugna, 
Doom
* Heroes that can quickly deal damage to her, regardless of how weak they are, can easily break through her Refraction:
* Multiple attackers thanks to summoned units or clones: Meepo, Witch Doctor, 
Lycan, Enigma, Shadow Shaman
* Multiple attackers thanks to illusions: Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Naga Siren (bonus for her 
Ensnare). Also despite the visual effects, Templar Assassin does not spill damage against illusions or buildings, so she is not a really good hero to clean up illusions.
* Weak damage but high tick rate or persist in a long time: Slark, Gyrocopter, Queen of Pain, Shadow Shaman (Shackles), Jakiro, Pugna, Doom
Oracle
* Heroes who are not easily crippled by Fate's Edict or Fortune's End, such as Timbersaw, or those who can dispel them, such as Phantom Lancer, can kill Oracle unhindered.
Queen of Pain
* Timbersaw has a difficult time against magical and pure damage: Lina, Leshrac, Enchantress, Queen of Pain
Queen of Pain
* Heroes who recklessly jump on Pudge with their gap-closing abilities will be easy targets for Pudge's Meat Hook and Dismember Combo: Phantom Assassin, Faceless Void, Queen of Pain etc.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with a high degree of mobility and invisibility are hard to catch with Meat Hook: Ember Spirit, Riki, Clinkz, Queen of Pain.
Queen of Pain
* A good Skywrath Mage with quick fingers will punish Queen of Pain for blinking aggressively. Ancient Seal is a six second silence with no cast time, so he can interrupt either her Shadow Strike or Sonic Wave, and a good 
Mystic Flare on top of that will seal the deal for her.
* Ancient Seal also has pretty good range so he could get it off before she blinks away.
Oracle
* Fate Edict can completely negate Skywrath Mage's heavy magic damage.
* Fortune End dispels Ancient Seal.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with mobility spells like Queen of Pain, Anti-Mage, Phantom Assassin, Riki, Puck, and Spirit Breaker that are cancelled by Frostbite can suffer greatly from the presence of Crystal Maiden. It is absolutely critical, however, to have followup from teammates, as all of the above heroes can make quick work of the squishy Crystal Maiden after they are released from her grip.
Oracle
* Heroes with little health or magic resistance are easily picked off with Oracle's magic burst, such as Skywrath Mage, Crystal Maiden, or Enchantress.
Oracle
* 
Disruption can protect Shadow Demon's allies from Fortune's End, preserving healing or buffs. It can also catch Oracle's allies, allowing 
Shadow Poison to be used without being dispelled.
* 
Demonic Purge prevents over-time healing during False Promise, such as Purifying Flames and 
Urn of Shadows. If he has Aghanim's Scepter, this issue can persist for longer or on multiple allies.
* It will not, however, prevent healing from instant abilities, items, or auras, making 
Mekansm a good choice against him.
Queen of Pain
* All of Queen of Pain's abilities are active, making Demonic Purge break from Aghanim's Scepter useless.
* However, Demonic Purge can help his allies kill a squishy Queen of Pain.
* Blink allows Queen of Pain to escape from Shadow Demon's abilities if he doesn't have disables.
* An attempt to save an ally using Disruption can easily become a perfect setup for a Sonic Wave for the enemy.
Queen of Pain
* All of Queen of Pain's abilities are worthy choices for Rubick to 
Spell Steal. In addition, he can cast her abilities from further distances than her thanks to 
Arcane Supremacy's increased cast range and spell amplification.
Oracle
* Oracle's high magic damage output can easily take down Rubick's low health pool.
* Because Oracle can combo spells in rapid succession (due to low cooldowns), it may be difficult for Rubick to Spell Steal False Promise. This scenario can even be avoided by shift queueing Fortune's End and casting it immediately, as it has no cast point, or by staying in the back line of fights if out of mana.
* As a position based hero, Rubick will have a very hard time against Fortune's End due to its absurd range and very long root duration.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes that rely on escapes to stay alive can be caught and locked down for a long time: Queen of Pain, Phantom Assassin
Queen of Pain
* Heroes that usually build Linken's Sphere as either a core or situational item: Weaver, Medusa, Morphling, Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit, Luna, Naga Siren.
Queen of Pain
* Any Hero with high mobility will be neutralized by dream coil: Queen of Pain, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, Lycan, Bloodseeker, Anti-Mage, Timbersaw.
Additional:
* Puck will make a game of dodging as many Shadow Strikes as he can with 
Phase Shift. If he's a good player, he will also dodge Sonic Wave. If he's a great player, he will also dodge Scream of Pain, and it's all thanks to this single spell.
* Puck also has a silence in Waning Rift to prevent Queen of Pain from blinking away.
* Puck can provide vision to hunt her down if she blinks into the trees with 
Illusory Orb.
* If Queen of Pain is under the effect of Dream Coil, she will be unable to blink out.
Queen of Pain
* Once you farm up an Orchid Malevolence or a Scythe of Vyse, you're suddenly a lot more fearsome to elusive heroes like Storm Spirit or even that pesky Puck.
Oracle
* Because Oracle uses few, powerful instances of damage to kill enemies, Templar Assassin's Refraction and Visage's Gravekeeper's Cloak can absorb his burst damage.
Queen of Pain
* Heroes with damage over time abilities can quickly eat through Gravekeeper's Cloak charges like Huskar, Jakiro and Queen of Pain.
Queen of Pain
* 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.
Oracle
* Heroes with long disables, like
Lion, 
Night Stalker, or 
Legion Commander, can prevent Oracle from using spells or items.
