Razor
* Viper's 
Poison Attack and 
Viper Strike that can slow Razor, and is one of the few heroes that can keep him immobile.
* Altogether, Viper's skills reduce Razor's attack speed, heavily reducing the benefit of the damage drain from Static Link.
Additional:
* 
Storm Surge is counteracted by Viper Strike, leaving Razor without his extra movement speed.
* 
Static Link's damage drain doesn't bother Viper a lot as most of his early to mid game damage is magical.
Sniper
* Viper Strike breaks Sniper's passives.
* 
Corrosive Skin allows Viper to deal more damage to Sniper than Sniper deals to him when laning, especially by briefly stepping into Shrapnel.
* 
Nethertoxin together with Poison Attack can slow Sniper and tears through his low health and mobility.
Razor
* Morphling can break Static Link with Waveform. Alternatively, Morphling can Morph into Razor and use the same ability against him.
* Morphling's high armor makes 
Eye Of The Storm mostly ineffective, enabling Morphling to fight Razor for longer.
* Razor has no disables, enabling Morphling to avoid his abilities as needed.
Additional:
* Static Link is almost completely useless against Morphling, as he is able to quickly break it off with 
Waveform or turn into Razor himself with 
Morph and recover all of his stolen damage, or simply steal Razor's own.
Sniper
* Morphling's high mobility allows him to easily get close to Sniper, who likes to keep his distance from enemies.
Razor
* Razor has no way to deal with Chaos Knight's multiple illusions from 
Phantasm.
Sniper
* Sniper is very fragile and has low movement speed, making an exceptionally easy target for Chaos Knight to initiate on.
* Sniper has no innate ability to deal with Phantasm or escape a 
Reality Rift and 
Chaos Bolt combo.
* In most cases, Sniper likes to stay far in the backline to deal damage, thus he is vulnerable if Chaos Knight manages to jump on him in the back line, which will usually spell a quick end for Sniper.
Razor
* 
Blink can easily break Static Link and 
Counterspell reflects Static Link on Razor.
Sniper
* Anti-Mage can close the gap with Blink. Sniper will struggle to escape once he is jumped on due to the lack of mobility.
* Counterspell reduces sniper's magic damage from 
Shrapnel and 
Assassinate. The active component can also reflect the projectile back to sniper if he dares to target Anti-Mage. This is seriously detrimental for Sniper as he is prone to buying 
Khanda to boost effects of the Assassinate.
* Sniper often relies on mana to use items for escaping, and his abilities cost a lot of mana. 
Mana Break drains Sniper's mana and takes away Sniper's means to disengage.
* Anti-Mage has faster farming speed. He can outfarm and get ahead of Sniper easily.
Razor
* 
Shukuchi can break Static Link with little trouble.
* 
Time Lapse can easily be used to avoid damage from Plasma Field and can recover the damage done from Static Link and Eye of the Storm.
* Eye of the Storm can't kill bugs from 
The Swarm.
Sniper
* Shukuchi allows Weaver to close the gap between himself and Sniper with high speed, and to maneuver through teamfights to get on top of him.
* A combination of The Swarm and 
Desolator tears through Sniper's low armor.
Razor
* 
Pounce can easily break Static Link, making it less powerful against him.
* Slark is one of the few heroes who can man fight a Razor, because of 
Essence Shift.
* 
Shadow Dance can prevent Razor from killing him and may provide an opportunity to kill Razor due to it preventing Razor from attacking Slark.
Sniper
* Sniper hugely lacks mobility and escape abilities so that he is an easy target for ganks from Slark.
Razor
* 
Spell Steal can easily steal abilities from Razor. Since Rubick get steal Static Link, Rubick can recover of his stolen damage, or simply steal Razor's own
Sniper
* In the mid to late game, the physical attack from 
Sniper can be painful to go through as 
Rubick. However with the help of Rubick's teammates, the abilities of Sniper can turn against his team.
* Shrapnel is a great wave-clear ability, and helps with scouting the area.
* Shrapnel already has a long cast range, and together with 
Arcane Supremacy Rubick can put constant damage on Sniper while he stays at back.
* Assassinate, if stolen, can be cast to assist a gank while Rubick stays at a range that can merely be found in the area, damaging heroes in the backline including Sniper.
* Arcane Supremacy (combined with Level 25 talent +40% Spell Amp For Stolen Spells, as of 7.31c) increases its damage before reduction to 406.2/611.1/819(531.2/805.1/1079) without considering any further amplification source.
* With 
Aghanim's Scepter, Assassinate becomes an ability with a reliable 1.5 second stun, massive damage, short cooldown and over 3000 cast range which should not be made light of.
* Shrapnel is used frequently and can be easily stolen; Assassinate has a long cast animation for Rubick to forsee the chance to steal.
Razor
* Onslaught prevents all of Razor's abilities from being effective against him, especially in the laning stage.
Sniper
* Primal Beast is one of Sniper's greatest counters, as he has no real means of escape and is very squishy, especially in the early game. Sniper's potshots and Shrapnel can contribute to Primal Beast's Uproar and further make him tankier than he already is. Onslaught allows him to close the gap on Sniper at his own volition, and Trample can deal serious damage to his meager health pool.
Razor
* 
Boulder Smash's and 
Geomagnetic Grip's (upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter) repositioning and disables make it very difficult for Razor to keep enemies within range of Static Link and Eye of the Storm.
Sniper
* Heroes with high mobility can approach Sniper: 
Anti-Mage, 
Earth Spirit, 
Io, 
Nature's Prophet, 
Pangolier, 
Puck, 
Queen of Pain and most notably 
Riki.
Razor
* Heroes who rely on abilities to deal damage (e.g. 
Timbersaw, 
Tinker) can fight a Razor even after Static Link.
Sniper
* Tinker is one of the few heroes who is able to defeat a Sniper on the center line thanks to his long-ranged abilities.
* 
Laser allow Tinker to deal damage to Sniper and blind him, causing him to miss attacks more often.
* 
Heat-Seeking Missile can deal heavy damage to Sniper on lane.
* 
Defense Matrix allow Tinker to save himself or allies from Assassinate.
* 
Warp Flare from 
Aghanim's Shard allows Tinker to teleport Sniper away from himself, while also reducing both his attack range and cast range. If Sniper is teleported near Tinker's allies with Warp Flare, he will be bursted down in no time.
Additional:
* Tinker is one of the few characters in Dota 2 who is able to defeat a Sniper on the center line – Tinker. On the center line, he gains an advantage over his opponent, and later acquires additional control. It is these abilities that the enemy should have in the game against the Sniper.
Razor
* Any hero with teleport abilities (e.g. 
Ember Spirit, 
Storm Spirit) can easily break Static Link.
Additional:
* Ball Lightning breaks Static Link.
* Razor has no way to catch a slippery Storm Spirit.
Sniper
* Storm Spirit can close the distance towards Sniper very easily with his ultimate 
Ball Lightning.
Additional:
* Sniper is very squishy and cannot deal with heroes that jump onto him and lock him down. Storm Spirit closes the gap in a fight against Sniper, and Sniper has no way to escape except for some items.
* Storm Spirit can dodge Assassinate with a correctly timed Ball Lightning.
Razor
* 
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.
Sniper
* Heroes with high mobility can approach Sniper: Anti-Mage, Earth Spirit, Io, Nature's Prophet, Pangolier, Puck, Queen of Pain and most notably Riki.
Razor
* Any hero with teleport abilities (e.g. Ember Spirit, Storm Spirit) can easily break Static Link.
Sniper
* Ember Spirit can close the distance between Sniper easily with his 
Activate Fire Remnant and further keep Sniper in place with 
Searing Chains.
* With the help of Aghanim's Scepter, Sniper cannot outrun Ember Spirit or chase him, even if Sniper builds mobility items.
Razor
* Fortune's End can catch out or impair position-based heroes with low mobility, such as Sniper or 
Razor.
Sniper
* Fortune's End can catch out or impair position-based heroes with low mobility, such as Sniper or Razor.
Sniper
* Clockwerk is also the least optimal target for Sniper to attack in a teamfight, although more experienced players will rarely make this mistake.
* With no mobility or disable skills, getting trapped in Power Cogs is a death sentence for Sniper.
Sniper
* Sniper relies on distance. Bounty Hunter can use Shadow Walk to get close, and Jinada can do massive damage and slow down Sniper in the early game.
* Track gives additional speed to Bounty Hunter and makes 
Shadow Blade useless, which can allow Bounty Hunter to easily kill him with a few attacks.
Sniper
* Sniper is completely helpless against Broodmother's abilities, and can be seriously damaged by Spiderlings in lane, especially when Shrapnel is on cooldown.
Sniper
* Magnetic Field's evasion completely negates Sniper's attacks unless he has True Strike.
* Sniper always positions himself far away from battles, which makes him especially vulnerable for Flux and Spark Wraith.
Sniper
* Lina defeats Sniper on the mid, because she has the same attack range as him, and her 
Dragon Slave ability deals much more damage to creeps, as well as to Sniper himself, than Shrapnel, which creates uncomfortable conditions for Sniper to farm on the line, which is why Lina either punches Sniper harder than he either pushes a pack of creeps up to the tower and finishes off his creeps under it, preventing Sniper from earning gold and a level.
Additional:
* Lina defeats Sniper on the mid, because she has the same attack range as him, and her Dragon Slave ability deals much more damage to creeps, as well as to Sniper himself, than Shrapnel, which creates uncomfortable conditions for Sniper to farm on the line, which is why Lina either punches Sniper harder than he either pushes a pack of creeps up to the tower and finishes off his creeps under it, preventing Sniper from earning gold and a level.
Sniper
* 
Shadow Step and 
Haunt from Aghanim's Scepter instantly allows Spectre to get up and close with Sniper, and 
Spectral Dagger makes it difficult for Sniper to escape from her.
Additional:
* Spectre can reach him easily in the backlines with Spectral Dagger or teleport to him with Haunt.
* He is usually a fair distance away from his allies, so 
Desolate will quickly tear Sniper down.
* 
Dispersion reflect or reduce his damage, making her hard to take down even at late game.
Sniper
* Assassinate is easy to reflect with Spiked Carapace for massive damage.
* Shrapnel's area damage can set up an easy stun with Spiked Carapace, especially when combined with Vendetta.
* In the early game, Sniper's low health pool and high intelligence makes him easy prey for Nyx Assassin.
Razor
* Necrophos usually doesn't build itmes that give attack damage, minimalizing effects of Static Link.
* He can use 
Ghost Shroud to prevent Razor from attacking him with the stolen damage from Static Link.
* Razor is somewhat vulnerable to magical damage, and 
Reaper's Scythe prevents him from escaping with his high movement speed when things get dangerous.
Sniper
* 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.
Sniper
* Invoker's arsenal of magical spells are troublesome for Sniper who has low HP and high armor, which does not benefit him much against Invoker.
* Besides magical damage, he can be disarmed and repeatedly mini-stunned with 
Cold Snap, preventing him from reacting.
* Leveling 
Quas can allow Invoker to lane effectively against Sniper despite right-click harassment.
Sniper
* Slardar can use 
Guardian Sprint with 
Blink Dagger or Shadow Blade to get close, and 
Slithereen Crush will stun Sniper and slow him, making him vulnerable to Slardar's teammates.
* 
Corrosive Haze lowers Sniper's armor and makes Sniper's Shadow Blade useless, easily killing him with a few attacks.
Sniper
* Sniper has no spells to disable Puck. He lacks a silence to prevent spell casting and a stun to disable, allowing Puck to act instantly against Sniper.
* Sniper's main strategy is to attack his enemies from a safe distance. Illusory Orb, combined with Blink Dagger makes it easy for Puck to get close to Sniper. Due to his low health, he is also easily nuked down by Puck.
* The status debuff placed by Assassinate on its target makes it very easy to avoid it. Puck has 2 (3 when having Blink Dagger, 4 when having 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity, 5 when having 
Linken's Sphere) methods to disjoint or dodge the projectile, making it a bad spell for finishing off Puck.
Sniper
* Sniper lacks any protection against 
Lion's disables early in the game.
* Lion's 
Earth Spike and 
Finger of Death may roughly hit Sniper at the latter increased attack range, making it possible to gank and to disable him from afar in clashes.
* Finger of Death is incredibly dangerous for Sniper as it may shred him away from fights, or in the worst scenario, cause his death.
Sniper
* Even if he can slow Mars down with Shrapnel and 
Headshot, Mars can tank Sniper's physical damage simply by facing him with Bulwark, allowing him to endure his auto-attacks into the late-game. Should Sniper choose to attack someone else, Mars can redirect his projectiles with Bulwark's active ability.
* Sniper's poor mobility makes him very vulnerable to Arena of Blood, especially in the early game. Mars can also take advantage of this by pushing him closer to the front line with Spear of Mars.
Sniper
* 
Ensnare with her attacks allows Naga Siren to gank Sniper easily.
* Rip Tide removes Sniper's very little armor.
Sniper
* Heroes with catch to disrupt Sniper's positioning and deliver him into the enemies: 
Batrider, 
Disruptor, 
Pudge, 
Vengeful Spirit.
Sniper
* Low-health, normally mobile carries who rely entirely on raw attack damage are vulnerable to Bane's nukes and disables: Anti-Mage, 
Clinkz, 
Drow Ranger, 
Faceless Void, 
Gyrocopter, 
Juggernaut, 
Meepo, 
Mirana, 
Monkey King, 
Morphling, 
Phantom Assassin, 
Phantom Lancer, Riki, 
Shadow Fiend, 
Slark, Sniper, 
Terrorblade, 
Troll Warlord, 
Weaver.
Sniper
* Invisible heroes all have the element of surprise. Provided they deal enough damage, Sniper should be vanquished very quickly: Clinkz, Riki, 
Bounty Hunter.
Sniper
* Sand King is a strong ganker, allowing him to shut down squishy heroes in the early game: Phantom Assassin, Clinkz, Sniper, 
Enchantress.
Sniper
* Heroes with high physical damage output but lack of reliable escape mechanisms are always a good target for a solo gank: Sniper, Shadow Fiend, Troll Warlord, Drow Ranger. Those heroes, however, are dangerous if they manage to close the gap, so take caution.
Sniper
* You can easily kill a squishy Sniper, due to your high movement speed and his lack of escape.
Razor
* Heroes who rely on abilities to deal damage (e.g. Timbersaw, Tinker) can fight a Razor even after Static Link.
Additional:
* Razor deals mostly physical damage towards the later game, and Timbersaw is also very mobile, making him a difficult kill to earn.
* Timbersaw rarely resorts to attacks, thus does not suffer when his damage is stolen with Static Link.
Sniper
* Clinkz, Sniper, 
Lone Druid, Troll Warlord, 
Legion Commander and 
Wraith King are some of the Heroes that base themselves on attacks with little or no spell power, so they suffer in the grassy hands of Overgrowth.
Sniper
* Heroes with high mobility can approach Sniper: Anti-Mage, Earth Spirit, Io, Nature's Prophet, Pangolier, Puck, Queen of Pain and most notably Riki.
Sniper
* Range-reliant heroes: Sniper, Drow Ranger
Sniper
* Heroes with catch to disrupt Sniper's positioning and deliver him into the enemies: Batrider, Disruptor, Pudge, Vengeful Spirit.
Sniper
* Sniper's lack of mobility and escape mechanisms makes him one of the easier heroes for Bloodseeker to gank.
Razor
* Heroes that rely on right-clicks will find themselves unable to damage opponents seriously after being affected by Static Link, like 
Sven, 
Bloodseeker, and Juggernaut.
Sniper
* Axe can easily close the distance to Sniper with Blink Dagger.
* With 
Berserker's Call in combination with 
Counter Helix and 
Battle Hunger, Axe can make short work of Sniper, finishing him off easily with 
Culling Blade due to his low HP & high attack speed in the late game.
Sniper
* Ranged heroes that can easily harass Axe: Drow Ranger, Sniper, Lion.
Sniper
* Sniper has a low health pool and strength gain, making him vulnerable to Pudge's magical and pure damage.
* Sniper usually likes to deal damage away from the fight, and Meat Hook is capable of bringing him to the front lines.
* Assassinate won't do much damage against Pudge because of his high strength gain and the strength bonuses from Flesh Heap.
* Shrapnel will be mostly blocked by Flesh Heap's active.
Additional:
* Pudge's 
Meat Hook allows him to bring Sniper in the middle of any fight, and the pure damage does well against his high armor and low health.
* 
Dismember can lock Sniper down, which makes him highly vulnerable and gives enough time for Pudge to kill him alone. Aghanim's Shard upgraded Dismember will also allow Pudge to save an ally from Assassinate.
Razor
* Anti-Tank heroes like: Razor, 
Necrophos, 
Undying.
Sniper
* Pangolier can easily get close to Sniper with Swashbuckle and Rolling Thunder, negating Sniper's range advantage.
* Lucky Shot disarms Sniper and leaves him unable to effectively fight back.
Sniper
* Powerful physical hitters that can destroy Pangolier during his rolling from afar: Drow Ranger, Sniper, 
Templar Assassin, 
Arc Warden
Sniper
* Sniper's 
Take Aim can be wasted with either Muerta's 
Pierce the Veil or a well aimed 
Dead Shot.
* Dead Shot can displace Sniper from safe spots into the offensive range of Muerta's team, leading to potential kills on Sniper.
* Sniper relies heavily on his basic attacks, which is useless against Pierce the Veil.
Razor
* Heroes who buy 
Revenant's Brooch can attack Muerta even through Pierce The Veil: 
Luna, 
Jakiro, 
Broodmother, 
Dawnbreaker, 
Naga Siren, 
Lina, 
Silencer, Batrider, 
Outworld Destroyer, Razor.
Razor
* Time Walk can break Static Link very quickly, preventing Razor from building up to attack damage.
Sniper
* Frail heroes who lack mobility can also be an easy target to lock down with Chronosphere, such as Drow Ranger, Luna, Sniper, Terrorblade.
Razor
* Heroes who can proc their respective passives while inside Chronosphere can still be a problem for Darkterror: 
Axe, 
Abaddon, Razor...
Sniper
* Heroes that can easily kill Faceless Void from outside his Cronosphere; Sniper, 
Skywrath Mage, etc.
Razor
* Static Link can steal Shadow Fiend's high physical damage output from 
Necromastery, lowering his damage output, and Static Link cannot be prevented by 
Black King Bar.
* 
Plasma Field and Eye of the Storm can melt down Shadow Fiend easily, due to his low health.
Sniper
* Shrapnel can be used to cancel Shadow Fiend's Blink Dagger from a huge range.
* Take Aim and Headshot allow Sniper to harass Shadow Fiend in lane without getting into the range of his Shadowrazes.
Additional:
* Shrapnel can be used to cancel Shadow Fiend's Blink Dagger from a huge range.
* Take Aim and Headshot allow Sniper to harass Shadow Fiend in lane without getting into the range of his 
Shadowraze.
* Assassinate when upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter can be used to cancel Shadow Fiend's 
Requiem of Souls.
Razor
* Static Link drains the damage bonus from Enchant Totem, until he purchase Aghanim's Scepter or 
Force Staff to break it.
* Storm Surge with Razor's high mobility items can easily avoid all of Earthshaker abilities.
* Plasma Field & Eye of the Storm prevents Earthshaker escaping from Blink Dagger.
Additional:
* Static Link drains Earthshaker's bonus damage from 
Enchant Totem until he purchases an Aghanim's Scepter or Force Staff to break it.
* Eye of the Storm and Plasma Field can disable Earthshaker's Blink Dagger, preventing him from initiating or re-initiating.
Sniper
* Shrapnel can be used to disable Earthshaker's Blink Dagger from long range.
* Take Aim allows Sniper to harass Earthshaker in lane, and stay out of Echo Slam initiation radius.
Additional:
* Sniper is able to kite Earthshaker with his very long range.
* Sniper can dodge Earthshaker's stuns like 
Fissure and Enchant Totem with mobility items such as Blink Dagger, Force Staff/
Hurricane Pike and Shadow Blade/
Silver Edge.
* Sharpnel can be used to cancel Earthshaker's Blink Dagger and preventing effective use of his 
Echo Slam in a majority of situations.
Razor
* With Static Link, Razor can effectively make Medusa useless in teamfights by reducing her main damage output. It can, however, be blocked by a Linken's Sphere.
* Plasma Field allows Razor to get on top of Medusa, slowing her already slow movement speed to a mere crawl.
* Eye of the Storm capitilizes on Medusa's low armor and causes her to be very vulnerable, even through 
Mana Shield.
Sniper
* Sniper can outrange both Medusa's arrows and Stone Gaze, allowing him to focus her down during a teamfight.
Additional:
* Medusa is a fairly immobile hero that deals damage around her with 
Split Shot. Sniper should outrange her and should stay out of harm's way from Split Shot.
* More importantly, Sniper should have enough attack range to fire at Medusa during her 
Stone Gaze without turning to stone, so the ultimate is mostly wasted against him.
Razor
* Razor's Plasma Field and the passive from Eye of the Storm can damage and clear Chen's creeps.
* Chen has no escape mechanisms, making him easy prey for Static Link, which can also minimalize effects of 
Penitence.
* Eye of the Storm will rapidly strike Chen's creeps around Razor.
Sniper
* Heroes that can easily bypass Chen's creeps to get to Chen: Riki, 
Tusk, Clinkz, Sniper, Slark, Phantom Assassin, 
Void Spirit, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, Earth Spirit, 
Spirit Breaker.
Razor
* Static Link is effective against Troll Warlord, as he mainly relies on attack speed more so than damage.
* Static Link is even more effective if Troll Warlord used 
Battle Trance, as he has no way to break the link.
Additional:
* Static Link can drain most or all of Troll Warlord's damage, making him useless in a teamfight or unable to last hit in lane. This is especially effective during Battle Trance, because Troll has no option to cancel the link.
* Storm Surge allows Razor to chase after or run away from Troll Warlord while doing damage with Eye of the Storm.
Sniper
* Melee heroes who may struggle to get close to Sniper: Wraith King, 
Kunkka, 
Doom, 
Tidehunter, 
Underlord, Troll Warlord, and etc.
Additional:
* Shrapnel and Headshot allows Sniper to kite Troll Warlord effectively.
* Take Aim together with certain items such as Hurricane Pike allow Sniper to sit and fire at Troll Warlord from a safe distance.
Razor
* Static Link greatly reduces Underlord's attack damage, while benefits Razor himself, even when in 
Atrophy Aura's range.
* Underlord is a slow and low mobility hero, and cannot outrun Razor's high movement speed, easily for Razor to absorb his damage with Static Link to the maximum and burst him down from the bonus damages, combine with the armor reduction from Eye of the Storm.
* However, Razor has no way of preventing enemies to escape with 
Fiend's Gate. And his only way to counter this is by buying disabling items.
Sniper
* Melee heroes who may struggle to get close to Sniper: Wraith King, Kunkka, Doom, Tidehunter, Underlord, Troll Warlord, and etc.
Additional:
* Sniper's very long range allows him to stay out of 
Firestorm, 
Pit of Malice as well as Atrophy Aura's range.
* Escapes with Fiend's Gate can be canceled with Assassinate that can mini-stun the target.
* However, Fiend's Gate can be used to quickly close the gap on Sniper, and kill him if Underlord brings his allies with him through Fiend's Gate. And Sniper has nothing to intercept arrivals with Fiend's Gate outside of Shrapnel and 
Concussive Grenade from Aghanim's Shard.
Razor
* Static Link weakens Drow Ranger's attack damage while strengthening Razor's attack damage.
* Plasma Field & Storm Surge keeps Razor close to Drow Ranger, continuously disabling Marksmanship.
Sniper
* Heroes who outrange Drow Ranger such as Sniper, Tinker.
Razor
* Heroes that rely on right-clicks will find themselves unable to damage opponents seriously after being affected by Static Link, like Sven, Bloodseeker, and Juggernaut.
Sniper
* Juggernaut deals most of his damage in the melee range and has no gap-closer. Sniper can easily harrass Juggernaut from afar with his long-ranged attacks and {Ability ID:Headshot|Sniper|16px} procs.Should Juggernaut decide to advance,Sniper has enough time to react and back off.
* Sniper's long range attack can destroy 
Healing Ward from a safe range, preventing any healing done to Juggernaut and/or his teammates.
* However, if Sniper is badly positioned, Juggernaut can easily terminate him.
Sniper
* Squishy core heroes (Shadow Fiend, Sniper, etc)
Razor
* Plasma Field can slow Magnus during Skewer, and when combined with Eye of the Storm, will potentially disable his Blink Dagger, preventing him from initiating.
* Static Link drains the bonus damage from Empower. However, it can be broken by Skewer and/or Force Staff.
* Storm Surge gives Razor and his allies high mobility needed to avoid Shockwave & Reverse Polarity.
Sniper
* Shrapnel can sometimes scout out Magnus and also place his Blink Dagger on cooldown. Aside from that, Sniper likes to stay far back behind enemy lines, so it's difficult to catch him with Reverse Polarity unless you already have vision on him and can Skewer him to the rest of his team.
Razor
* Heroes with wide AoE abilities will reveal Monkey King through Mischief: Necrophos, 
Phoenix, 
Alchemist, 
Earthshaker, Razor, Tinker, 
Leshrac, Queen of Pain
Additional:
* Static Link can steal the bonus damage from 
Jingu Mastery and reduce the physical damage from 
Boundless Strike. It also reduces 
Wukong's Command's damage if it's used after stealing damage via Static Link.
* Static Link will give Razor shared vision on Monkey King if he tries to escape using 
Tree Dance or 
Mischief.
* Plasma Field can prevent Monkey King from using Tree Dance and Mischief.
* Eye of the Storm will remove the armor buff from Wukong's Command, as well as hitting Monkey King during Mischief.
Sniper
* Heroes that can maintain vision on Monkey King can see when he uses Tree Dance: Bloodseeker, 
Treant Protector with Eyes In The Forest, Sniper, Weaver
Razor
* Heroes who relies on high armor such as 
Dragon Knight, Tidehunter, and Pudge can be melted by Eye of the Storm.
Additional:
* Kraken Shell's dispel does not restore damage stolen by Static Link, and the stolen damage easily offsets Anchor Smash's damage reduction. Razor can keep attacking Tidehunter from afar, denying his chance to use Anchor Smash.
* Eye of the Storm melts Tidehunter's armor and makes him much less tanky.
* Razor can chase Tidehunter by himself without relying on actual crowd control ability, so the strong dispel from Kraken Shell is less useful.
Sniper
* Melee heroes who may struggle to get close to Sniper: Wraith King, Kunkka, Doom, Tidehunter, Underlord, Troll Warlord, and etc.
Sniper
* Heroes with powerful nuke can waste their precious abilites on her Refraction during a ganking attempt or chaos combat: 
Lich, Lina, Sniper, Outworld Destroyer 
Zeus
Razor
* Templar Assassin's 
Refraction will easily be removed by Eye of the Storm, and Static Link reveals Templar Assassin hiding with 
Meld and drain the bonus damage from Refraction.
Additional:
* Razor's Eye of the Storm damage-over-time easily wear off Refraction charges, allowing Templar Assassin to be damaged.
* Static Link empties Templar Assassin's damage output even with the bonus from Refraction, and will keep doing that even if the Razor cannot see her during Meld.
* Plasma Field can easily strike her during Meld.
Sniper
* Sniper destroys Templar Assassin Refraction's only defense with its Shrapnel ability, which is why it can easily punch it and kick it off the line, getting more level and gold.
* The huge range of Sniper's attack due to the Take Aim ability allows him to spend the whole game at a distance far from Templar Assassin, constantly punching her with his physical attacks, which is why Templar Assassin remains either to run away or hide in Meld, however, even there Sniper will not let her escape with the help of Blink Dagger, since he uses Shrapnel.

Sniper
* Heroes who have high health are a problem for Sniper because he likes to attack the closest target and sit at the back, much like a Terrorblade so when that hero doesn't die; he's forced to show his position for a very long time: 
Centaur Warrunner, Legion Commander, 
Primal Beast.
Additional:
* Sunder can save himself or his allies from Assassinate.
* Sniper relies on right-clicks to deal damage in the late game, and Terrorblade's high armor can reduce his damage significantly.
* Terrorblade is a far harder carry than Sniper is, so a well-farmed Terrorblade can easily defeat a Sniper.
Razor
* Plasma Field and Eye of the Storm can help Razor clear waves of Terrorblade's illusions.
* Static Link can significantly weakens Terrorblade's damage, even during 
Metamorphosis, making Terrorblade's attacks tickle while strengthening Razor's attack damage. Terrorblade also lacks escape mechanisms, making Terrorblade a good target for Static Link and forcing Terrorblade to buy Linken's Sphere.
* Storm Surge makes it difficult for Terrorblade to catch Razor, and when upgraded with Aghanim's Shard, it can also deal damage to Terrorblade and his illusions.
* Eye of the Storm can rapidly weaken Terrorblade's armor, which combined with Terrorblade's low health and strength gain can almost completely discourage Terrorblade from even being present in teamfights.
* Static Link and Eye of the Storm cannot be dispelled neither with 
Manta Style nor blocked by Black King Bar, which can put Terrorblade in a big disadvantage against Razor.
* However, Razor's lack of disables makes it difficult for him to burst down Terrorblade before he can use 
Sunder unless Razor has either Black King Bar or Linken's Sphere to protect himself against it.
Additional:
* Plasma Field and Eye of the Storm can help Razor clear waves of Terrorblade's illusions.
* Static Link significantly weakens Terrorblade's damage, even during Metamorphosis, making Terrorblade's attacks tickle while strengthening Razor's attack damage. Terrorblade also lacks escape mechanisms, making Terrorblade a good target for Static Link and forcing Terrorblade to buy Linken's Sphere.
* Storm Surge makes it difficult for Terrorblade to catch Razor, while also allowing Razor to deal damage to Terrorblade and his illusions.
* Eye of the Storm can rapidly weaken Terrorblade's armor, which combined with Terrorblade's low health and strength gain can almost completely discourage Terrorblade from even being present in teamfights.
* Static Link and Eye of the Storm cannot be dispelled neither with Manta Style nor blocked by Black King Bar, which can put Terrorblade in a big disadvantage against Razor.
* However, Razor's lack of disables can make it difficult for him to burst down Terrorblade before he can use Sunder unless Razor has either Black King Bar or Linken's Sphere to protect himself against it.
Sniper
* Unlike with other heroes who can summon illusions of themselves, Terrorblade's illusions from 
Conjure Image have different colors than other illusions which can be seen even by enemy team, which can also make Terrorblade weak even against heroes he naturally counters: 
Bane, 
Lifestealer, 
Spectre, 
Chaos Knight, Spirit Breaker, Sniper. Terrorblade's only solution to counter this problem is to get Manta Style as quickly as possible.
Sniper
* Due to the nature of the hero, Sniper is typically situated in the back of the fight, potentially making him a difficult target to initiate on and fight.
* Sniper is largely a right-click hero, and as such isn't as an effective of a Doom target as other heroes.
* Thanks to Shrapnel and Headshot, Sniper is able to effectively 'kite' Doom, preventing him from closing the distance between the two.
Sniper
* Sniper can easily destroy 
Plague Ward from long range.
Razor
* Static Link saps Dragon Knight of his already low base damage, making him even more useless in a fight if he gets kited.
* Storm Surge makes Razor much faster than Dragon Knight, and hard to catch.
* Eye of the Storm melts Dragon Knight's armor and bypasses Black King Bar, his core item.
Sniper
* Sniper's position in the far back line makes him unlikely to be hit by any of Grimstroke's abilities during teamfights.
* Sniper is relatively unaffected by the silence from Phantom's Embrace.
* Sniper's long range and fast projectile speed allows him quickly to destroy any Phantoms attacking his allies.
Razor
* Eye of the Storm melts Bristleback's armor, and makes him much less tanky.
* Static Link can completely drain Bristleback's bonus damage from Warpath.
* Storm Surge allows Razor to outdistance Bristleback, even with a few stacks of Viscous Nasal Goo on him. Also, if Razor has his Shard, it will deal full damage to Bristleback every time he uses Viscous Nasal Goo (as Bristleback will face him to cast it).
Additional:
* Eye of the Storm melts Bristleback's armor, and makes him much less tanky.
* Static Link can completely drain Bristleback's bonus damage from 
Warpath.
Sniper
* With his Take Aim, Sniper can simply sit out of your ability range and deal massive damage if not killed first.
* Assassinate can target allies who are still alive with low health because of Ghostship's buff.
* Headshot makes it harder for Kunkka to position/escape and makes it hard for Kunkka to hit with Tidebringer.
Sniper
* Sniper's huge range makes him an unviable target to use Life Drain on, forcing Pugna to risk playing out of position to use it on Sniper.
* Sniper's Shrapnel can be used to provide vision on Nether Ward, and his range allows him to easily take it out.
* A clumsy Pugna may accidentally boost Sniper's Shrapnel and Assassinate damages if he recklessly uses Decrepify on himself or his allies.
Razor
* Alchemist's reliance on fast attack speed to do single-target damage makes him vulnerable to Static Link. It also goes through Black King Bar, which is a standard item on Alchemist.
* Eye of the Storm is great against high health strength heroes as it reduces their survivability to physical damage.
* Razor has early lane push to counter 
Acid Spray.
Sniper
* Sniper can easily destroy 
Tombstone from long range.
Sniper
* Take Aim extends Sniper's attack range, allowing him to position himself safely behind his team, making it difficult to catch him in Enigma's relatively small area-of-effect for 
Black Hole. When left unattended, he can quickly kill a channeling Enigma (often from the high ground) to rout an otherwise strong initiation.
* In the early game, Sniper can cancel Enigma's Black Hole with Assassinate's ministun. Due to the absolutely ginormous 3000 cast range on Assassinate, Sniper does not need to be too close to Enigma to cancel his Black Hole. Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Assassinate can also stun Enigma for a longer duration.
* Both Shrapnel and Assassinate put Enigma's Blink Dagger on cooldown, potentially forcing him to prematurely activate Black King Bar.
Additional:
* Sniper has a very long range, so it is rare that Enigma can catch him in a Black Hole.
* Assassinate can easily cancel Black Hole if he is not caught, especially with Aghanim's Scepter.
* Enigma's Eidolons from 
Demonic Conversion are useless to push against a Sniper as he will easily kill them, especially with 
Mjollnir, a common item on Sniper.
Sniper
* Sniper can easily destroy 
Mass Serpent Wards from long range.
Sniper
* Due to Sniper having a such a long range, he will rarely get hit by any of Silencer's spells.
* Global Silence will not hinder Sniper much as other heroes since most of his damage output comes from his attacks.
Additional:
* Sniper is a pure right click carry with a very long range, making it hard for Silencer to cast any of his skills on him in lane. During team-fights, 
Global Silence has little impact on Sniper.
Sniper
* Heroes that outrange Luna can be a problem for her: Drow Ranger, Sniper.
Sniper
* Heroes with channeled abilities which Assassinate may cancel at long range: 
Witch Doctor, 
Crystal Maiden, 
Shadow Shaman, 
Pugna
Sniper
* Long ranged heroes like Sniper or Drow Ranger can kite Tiny effectively if he doesn't get the jump on them first.
Sniper
* Heroes with good counter-push abilities to clear creep waves can hinder Jakiro's early pushing ability: 
Death Prophet, Sniper, Tinker, 
Windranger.
Sniper
* Heroes with channeled abilities which Assassinate may cancel at long range: Witch Doctor, Crystal Maiden, Shadow Shaman, Pugna
Sniper
* Melee heroes who may struggle to get close to Sniper: Wraith King, Kunkka, Doom, Tidehunter, Underlord, Troll Warlord, and etc.
Razor
* Heroes with stronger lane presence that can threaten to kill him: Batrider, Juggernaut, 
Ursa, Monkey King, Razor.
Sniper
* Heroes with long ranged attacks or abilities can harass Visage from afar like Phoenix and Sniper.
Sniper
* Other heroes that rely on physical attacks to deal damage and not their abilities: Troll Warlord, Sniper, Monkey King, Sven.
Razor
* Static Link can lower the damage output from 
Focus Fire.
* Eye of the Storm strikes cannot miss, even if 
Windrun is active.
Additional:
* Static Link greatly lowers Windranger's damage output from Focus Fire.
* Eye of the Storm strikes cannot miss, even if Windrun is active.
Sniper
* Carry heroes who can close the gap reliably are very problematic: Phantom Lancer, Ember Spirit, Phantom Assassin.
Razor
* Plasma Field can destroy Phantom Lancer's illusions or damage them heavily.
* Static Link cannot be broken even with Doppelganger, serving as a marker for the real Phantom Lancer.
* Storm Surge gives Razor's high mobility to chase down Phantom Lancer making Spirit Lance and 
Diffusal Blade slow useless.
* Eye of the Storm along with Aghanim's Scepter can quickly reduce Phantom Lancer's armor.
Additional:
* Plasma Field and Eye of the Storm clears most of Phantom Lancer's illusions.
* Static Link is not dispelled by 
Doppelganger or Manta Style which can be used to mark the real Phantom Lancer while also draining his base damage.
* Razor's high mobility with Storm Surge makes it hard for Phantom Lancer to chase down with 
Phantom Rush. When upgraded with Aghanim's Shard, it makes a quick work of his illusions.
Razor
* 
Dark Seer can increase the movement speed of allies with 
Surge, breaking Static Link.
Sniper
* A Sniper who is somewhat competent at positioning is hardly going to be affected by any of Dark Seer's spells thanks to Take Aim.
* However, an illusion of Sniper made with Wall of Replica is extremely powerful, and hard to deal with.
Sniper
* Early game gankers can make life very difficult for a Sniper if he keeps being caught: Ursa, Pudge, Earth Spirit.
Razor
* Plasma Field can spot an Ursa sneaking into Roshan's pit
* Static Link has a 800 link break distance, meaning Razor can stay close enough to drain Ursa' damage, but not too close to get attacked
* Static Link cannot be dispelled by 
Enrage
* With Storm Surge, Razor will usually be faster than Ursa in most cases
* Eye of the Storm melts through Ursa's armor
Sniper
* Heroes with catch to disrupt Sniper's positioning and deliver him into the enemies: Batrider, Disruptor, Pudge, Vengeful Spirit.
Sniper
* Sniper can kill Disruptor while he is trapped by Kinetic Field from a long range.
* Sniper generally stays in the back, making it hard for Disruptor to cast any of his skills on him in lane.
Sniper
* Heroes with high mobility can approach Sniper: Anti-Mage, Earth Spirit, Io, Nature's Prophet, Pangolier, Puck, Queen of Pain and most notably Riki.
Sniper
* Take Aim and Assassinate allow Sniper to reach Io even if it stays in the backline.
Sniper
* Past the early game, Sniper is an easy target for Sven to jump on with Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Storm Hammer, Blink Dagger, Silver Edge or 
Harpoon, common items on Sven.
* Sven's high armor and health pool makes it difficult for Sniper to focus, as his main source of damage is his right click, especially if Sven uses 
Warcry.
* Sniper is very squishy, and will not stand a chance against Sven head on.
Razor
* Heroes that rely on right-clicks will find themselves unable to damage opponents seriously after being affected by Static Link, like Sven, Bloodseeker, and Juggernaut.
Additional:
* Static Link saps Sven's insane attack damage, and goes through Black King Bar.
Sniper
* Special mention to Sven as he may not be able to get close, but if he does, 
God's Strength will make very short work of Sniper.
Sniper
* 
Snowball allows Tusk to move himself and allies towards Sniper whilst invulnerable and hidden.
* His 
Ice Shards may also block pathing for Sniper as he has no means of moving through obstacles. In addition, 
Tag Team can hinder Sniper's escape.
Additional:
* Tusk alone or with his teammates can close Sniper's long range easily with Snowball, even wasting Shrapnel, ending with a very vulnerable Sniper.
* Walrus PUNCH!'s very high physical damage output can easily kill Sniper instantly due to his low health and armor.
Razor
* Static Link drains Tusk's base damage, and it also reduces the critical damage output from 
Walrus PUNCH!.
* Plasma Field and Eye of the Storm allow Razor to chase Tusk after he uses Snowball.
Sniper
* Sniper's lack of mobility and reliance on attack range makes him an easy target for Phantom Assassin to jump on.
Additional:
* 
Stifling Dagger and 
Phantom Strike allow Phantom Assassin to close the gap with Sniper and prevent his escape.
* 
Blur allows Phantom Assassin to approach Sniper while invisible and dodge much of Sniper's damage. It can also disjoint Assassinate.
* 
Coup De Grace quickly cuts through Sniper's low health; one or two procs will usually kill him.
* 
Fan of Knives from Aghanim's Shard can deal damage to Sniper's maximum health and disable Headshot and Take Aim.
Razor
* Static Link can lower the damage output from Coup de Grace procs, hindering Phantom Assassin's main source of damage. And Phantom Assassin is not a common Linken's Sphere wielder to counter this problem.
* Eye of the Storm strikes cannot be evaded by Blur.
* Both Static Link and Eye of the Storm pierces spell immunity, as Phantom Assassin is often reliant on Black King Bar.
Additional:
* Static Link can lower the damage output from Coup de Grace procs, hindering Phantom Assassin's main source of damage.
* Eye of the Storm strikes cannot be evaded by Blur.
* Both Static Link and Eye of the Storm pierces spell immunity, as Phantom Assassin is often reliant on Black King Bar.
Sniper
* Spirit Breaker can charge towards Sniper from anywhere on the map with 
Charge of Darkness.
* 
Greater Bash deals magical damage, which can prove dangerous to Sniper and his low health.
* Both previous abilities combined with 
Nether Strike ensures that Spirit Breaker can easily solo kill Sniper.
Razor
* Nether Strike can't remove Static Link and reduces Spirit Breaker's physical damage output.
* Eye of the Storm melts Spirit Breaker's armor, and makes him much less tanky.
Additional:
* Plasma Field can slow Spirit Breaker and reduce damage from Greater Bash.
* Static Link drains damage bonus from Greater Bash, and it cannot be removed by Nether Strike.
* Storm Surge will proc on Spirit Breaker every time he attacks Razor or if he uses Charge of Darkness on Razor, damaging him and alerting Razor to Spirit Breaker's incoming ganks, no matter how far Spirit Breaker is from Razor.
* Eye of the Storm can rapidly reduce Spirit Breaker's armor, making him much less durable, especially in teamfights.
Sniper
* Sniper has no natural escape and relies on his range and slows to keep himself safe, which Riki can bypass with Blink Strike and quickly deplete his miniature HP pool.
Razor
* Static Link drains away Riki's damage while keeping his location revealed for its duration, allowing his team to accurately land detection or area-of-effect skills.
* Storm Surge procs on invisible heroes, making him aware of Riki's presence near him.
Razor
* 
Life Break along with 
Burning Spear can quickly kill Razor before Static Link steals enough damage for Razor to take down Huskar.
* 
Berserker's Blood can make stealing Huskar's damage and using it against him somewhat dangerous, as Huskar will be able to inflict more and more Burning Spears rapidly.
Sniper
* Sniper just doesn't give Huskar a chance, as he always just keeps his opponents at a great distance. However, in such a game you will need to have a Concussive Grenade and a Hurricane Pike in order to avoid the Life Break of Huskar
Additional:
* Sniper just doesn't give Huskar a chance, as he always just keeps his opponents at a great distance. However, in such a game you will need to have a Concussive Grenade and a Hurricane Pike in order to avoid the Life Break of Huskar
Sniper
* Marci can be effective against vulnerable squishy heroes that cannot deal with heroes that jump onto them - Sniper, Drow Ranger, Lina, Rubick, etc.
Razor
* Heroes that reduce the damage that Marci can deal during her ultimate, like Razor, Rubick, Bane, Dragon Knight and Underlord.
Razor
* Outworld Destroyer doesn't care if Razor steals his damage because he does most of his damage through 
Arcane Orb.
* 
Astral Imprisonment can prevent Razor from using the stolen damage from Static Link or chasing with Eye of the Storm.
* 
Sanity's Eclipse will do a ton of damage to Razor due to his low mana pool.
Sniper
* As Outworld Destroyer has short cast ranges, a short attack range, and no gap-closing abilities, Sniper can kite and harass Outworld Destroyer in lane with his long range and zone him out in fights. The continuous area damage from Shrapnel also prevents Astral-Blink escapes.
* However, in the late game, Outworld Destroyer's massive damage can overwhelm Sniper once he obtains Blink Dagger, Force Staff etc. to close the gap.
Sniper
* Sniper's low mobility and lack of defensive abilities make him an easy gank target for the entire game, especially if Blink Dagger is picked up.
Razor
* Static Link drains Legion Commander's accumulated damage, effectively neutralizing her overall primary advantage, and prevents her from winning Duels.
* Storm Surge's movement speed buff makes Razor and his allies harder to catch and initiate.
* Eye of the Storm, if used beforehand, will always hit Legion Commander during Duels, due to her forced proximity. This drastically lowers her survivability during Duel.
Sniper
* Lifestealer can close the distance to Sniper by using 
Infest on a fast or durable creep to tank Sniper's damage.
* 
Open Wounds and 
Ghoul Frenzy will reduce Sniper's mobility heavily, and 
Rage's movement speed bonus helps in closing the gap to Sniper. It also protects him from Assassinate and Shrapnel.
* Infest can dodge an incoming Assassinate or to surprise Sniper during ganks. Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Infest can also allow Lifestealer to disarm Sniper and attack him from inside.
Razor
* Razor's highly mobile nature allows him to control Lifestealer from a distance. As well, Lifestealer is already slow in comparison due to his lack of disables and move speed. Lifestealer is also an ideal target for Static Link, for its ability to pierce magic immunity and damage steal, which can render Lifestealer's Feast useless.
* Plasma Field can slow Lifestealer from a distance and force him to cast Rage too early.
* Eye of the Storm pierces magic immunity, deals physical damage, and reduces armor, allowing Razor to easily stand up to Lifestealer.
Additional:
* Static Link cannot be dispelled by Rage or Infest, so Razor will be able to track Lifestealer down during an attempted escape.
* Storm Surge makes it hard for Lifestealer to catch Razor.
* Static Link can stop Open Wounds from getting any additional lifesteal, but keep in mind Lifestealer can still utilize 
Feast.
* Eye of the Storm penetrates the spell immunity of Rage.
Razor
* Centaur can use
Stampede to break Static Link. It also prevents Razor from chasing Centaur Warruner or his teammates with Eye of the Storm, and Plasma Field's slow will do nothing to slow them down.
Sniper
*
Headshot and 
Shrapnel slow is ineffective against a team with haste (which Stampede gives).
Sniper with Retaliate and 
Blade Mail if he has one.
* Commonly picked up mobility items and hasted movement during his Stampede (as well as his high health pool) make him extremely hard to kill from a distance, damaging
* A low health pool and no escape mechanism makes him an easy target for Centaur Warrunner's burst damage and initiation (even making his team possible initiators with Stampede).
