Spectre
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 11%)Broodmother
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 3%)Sniper
* Sniper is completely helpless against Broodmother's abilities, and can be seriously damaged by Spiderlings in lane, especially when 
Shrapnel is on cooldown.
Oracle
* Oracle cannot easily deal with swarms of units, making him weak against heroes like 
Phantom Lancer or 
Broodmother.
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 11%)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.
* Counterspell active is even more dangerous if Anti-Mage purchased 
Aghanim's Scepter. Aghanims scepter allows antimage to bait out snipers range tools like pike or flashbang. Otherwise the illusion will drain his mana
* 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 mean to disengage.
* Anti-Mage has faster farming speed. He can outfarm and get ahead of sniper easily.
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.
Axe
[wiki] rating: 1.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)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.
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.
Sniper
* Ranged heroes that can easily harass Axe: 
Drow Ranger, 
Sniper, 
Lion.
Clinkz
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Sniper
* Invisible heroes all have the element of surprise. Provided they deal enough damage, Sniper should be vanquished very quickly: 
Clinkz, 
Riki, 
Bounty Hunter.
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.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Sniper
* Carry heroes who can close the gap reliably are very problematic: Phantom Lancer, 
Ember Spirit, 
Phantom Assassin.
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.
Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)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
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.
Riki
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 13%)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.
Arc Warden
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 5%)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.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Sniper
* Ensnare with her attacks allows Naga Siren to gank Sniper easily.
* Rip Tide removes Sniper's very little armor.
Slark
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Sniper
* Sniper hugely lacks mobility and escape abilities so that he is an easy target for ganks from Slark.
Centaur Warrunner
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)Sniper
* 
Headshot and Shrapnel slow is ineffective against a team with haste (which Stampede gives).
* 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 Sniper with Retaliate and 
Blade Mail if he has one.
* 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).
Weaver
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)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.
Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)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.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)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.
Tusk
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 15%)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! damage can easily kill Sniper instantly due to his low health.
Pudge
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 29%)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.
Viper
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Sniper
* 
Nethertoxin breaks Sniper's passives.
* 
Viper Strike together with 
Poison Attack can slow Sniper and tears through his low health and mobility.
Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)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.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 3%)Sniper
* Sniper's lack of mobility and escape mechanisms makes him one of the easier heroes for Bloodseeker to gank.
Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)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.
Puck
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)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 safe distance. Illusory Orb, combined with Blink Dagger makes it easy for Puck to get 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.
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)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.
Invoker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 14%)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.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Sniper
* Sniper is very fragile, along with his low movement speed, make 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 in the back line, which will usually spell a quick end for Sniper.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)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.
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.
Oracle
* Heroes who can dispel will be able to remove remove Soul Catcher's debuff to instantly bring the health of affected heroes back to a considerable amount: 
Abaddon, 
Slark, 
Legion Commander, Oracle.
Muerta
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 13%)Sniper
* Sniper's 
Take Aim can be wasted with either Muerta's 
Pierce the Veil or a well aimed 
Dead Shot.
* Dead Shot can make Sniper run into the battle, when Sniper want's to stay as far as possible from it.
* Sniper relies heavily on his main attacks, which is useless against Pierce the Veil.
Morphling
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 8%)Sniper
* Morphling's high mobility allows him to easily get close to Sniper, who likes to keep his distance from enemies.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 43% pickrate: 1%)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.
Lycan
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 57% pickrate: 3%)Sniper
* You can easily kill a squishy Sniper, due to your high movement speed and his lack of escape.
Treant Protector
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 16%)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.
Ursa
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)Sniper
* Early game gankers can make life very difficult for a Sniper if he keeps being caught: 
Ursa, 
Pudge, 
Earth Spirit.
Night Stalker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 4%)Oracle
* Heroes with long disables, like Lion, 
Night Stalker, or Legion Commander, can prevent Oracle from using spells or items.
Legion Commander
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)Sniper
* Sniper's low mobility and lack of defensive abilities makes him an easy gank target for the entire game, especially if Blink Dagger is picked up.
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.
Elder Titan
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 1%)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.
Sand King
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Sniper
* Sand King is a strong ganker, allowing him to shut down squishy heroes in the early game: Phantom Assassin, Clinkz, Sniper, 
Enchantress,...
Vengeful Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Sniper
* Heroes with catch to disrupt Sniper's positioning and deliver him into the enemies: 
Batrider, 
Disruptor, Pudge, 
Vengeful Spirit.
Earth Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 3%)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.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)Sniper
* Other heroes that rely on physical attacks to deal damage and not their abilities: Troll Warlord, Sniper, 
Monkey King, 
Sven.
Nature's Prophet
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 12%)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.
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 6%)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.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)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.
Bounty Hunter
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 7%)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.
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.
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Sniper
* Frail heroes who lack mobility can also be an easy target to lock down with Chronosphere, such as Drow Ranger, 
Luna, Sniper, 
Terrorblade.
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.
Sniper
* Heroes that can easily kill Faceless Void from outside his Cronosphere; Sniper, 
Skywrath Mage, etc.
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.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Sniper
* Sniper's lack of mobility and reliance on attack range makes him an easy target for Phantom Assassin to jump on.
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.
Mars
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)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.
Oracle
* Heroes with high magical or pure damage will bypass Bulwark: Timbersaw, 
Dark Willow, 
Enigma, 
Invoker, 
Pugna, Skywrath Mage, 
Tinker, Zeus, Oracle.
Pugna
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)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.
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.
Dark Seer
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 2%)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.
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.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Sniper
* Heroes with channeled abilities which Assassinate may cancel at long range: 
Witch Doctor, 
Crystal Maiden, 
Shadow Shaman, Pugna
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.
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)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.
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.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 11%)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.
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.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Sniper
* Sniper can easily destroy 
Plague Ward from long range.
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.
Jakiro
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 12%)Sniper
* Heroes with good counter-push abilities to clear creep waves can hinder Jakiro's early pushing ability: 
Death Prophet, Sniper, Tinker, 
Windranger.
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.
Razor
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Sniper
* His increased attack range makes it very hard to get close enough for Static Link, Eye of the Storm and Razor's own attacks.
* Headshot procs will slow Razor heavily regardless of Storm Surge, as it will knock him back for a brief duration.
Oracle
* Fortune's End can catch out or impair position-based heroes with low mobility, such as Sniper or 
Razor.
Wraith King
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Sniper
* Melee heroes who may struggle to get close to Sniper: Wraith King, Kunkka, Doom, Tidehunter, Underlord, Troll Warlord, and etc.
Oracle
* Heroes with area dispel can kill multiple skeletons at once: 
Brewmaster, Oracle.
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 13%)Sniper
* Heroes with channeled abilities which Assassinate may cancel at long range: Witch Doctor, Crystal Maiden, Shadow Shaman, Pugna
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.
Medusa
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 1%)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.
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 4%)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.
Doom
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Oracle
* Supports with useful teamfight or contribution spells will be helpless against Doom: Dazzle, Oracle, 
Warlock.
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.
Oracle
* Heroes with the ability to heal allies, or those with good defensive abilities: 
Chen, Dazzle, Io, Oracle, Omniknight, Witch Doctor, Winter Wyvern, Abaddon, etc.
Kunkka
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)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.
Shadow Fiend
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 18%)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.
Ogre Magi
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)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.
Techies
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)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.
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Sniper
* Sniper can easily destroy 
Mass Serpent Ward from long range
Leshrac
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)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.
Enigma
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)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 
Maelstrom/
Mjollnir.
Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 10%)Oracle
* Fate Edict can completely negate Skywrath Mage's heavy magic damage.
* Fortune End dispels Ancient Seal.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)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.
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)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.
Phoenix
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)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.
Magnus
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 15%)Sniper
* Squishy core heroes (Shadow Fiend, Sniper, etc)
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.
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.
Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)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.
Beastmaster
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 2%)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.
Earthshaker
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)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.
Dark Willow
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)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.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)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.
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.
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.
Undying
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 10%)Sniper
* Sniper can easily destroy 
Tombstone from long range.
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)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
Void Spirit
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Oracle
* Heroes that can purge his slow and disables are very difficult to go on and their team: Abaddon, Oracle.
Tiny
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 13%)Sniper
* Long ranged heroes like Sniper or Drow Ranger can kite Tiny effectively if he doesn't get the jump on them first.
Tidehunter
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Sniper
* Melee heroes who may struggle to get close to Sniper: Wraith King, Kunkka, Doom, Tidehunter, Underlord, Troll Warlord, and etc.
Keeper of the Light
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 3%)Oracle
* Heroes with dispels: Legion Commander, Oracle, Slark, Phantom Lancer
Luna
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)Sniper
* Heroes that outrange Luna can be a problem for her: Drow Ranger, Sniper.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 18%)Sniper
* Heroes who outrange Drow Ranger such as Sniper, Tinker.
Underlord
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)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 and Pit of Malice as well as Atrophy Aura range.
Mirana
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 15%)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.
Marci
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Sniper
* Marci can be effective against vulnerable squishy heroes that cannot deal with heroes that jump onto them - Sniper, Drow Ranger, 
Lina , Rubick, etc.
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.
Batrider
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Sniper
* Heroes with catch to disrupt Sniper's positioning and deliver him into the enemies: Batrider, Disruptor, Pudge, Vengeful Spirit.
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.
Disruptor
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)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.
Io
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)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.
Sven
[wiki] rating: -0.2 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Sniper
* Past the early game, Sniper is an easy target for Sven to jump on with Aghanim's Scepter.
* Sven's high armour and health pool makes it difficult for Sniper to focus, as his main source of damage is his right click.
* Sniper is very squishy, and will not stand a chance against Sven head on.
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.
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.
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)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.
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.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)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.
Enchantress
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 2%)Sniper
* Range-reliant heroes: Sniper, Drow Ranger
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.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 25%)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.
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.
Pangolier
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)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
* Powerful physical hitters that can destroy Pangolier during his rolling from afar: Drow Ranger, Sniper, Templar Assassin, 
Arc Warden
Bane
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Sniper
* Low-health, normally mobile carries with a lot of damage are vulnerable to Bane's nukes and disables: Anti-Mage, Clinkz, Drow Ranger, Faceless Void, 
Gyrocopter, Juggernaut, Luna, 
Meepo, 
Mirana, Monkey King, 
Morphling, Phantom Assassin, Phantom Lancer, Riki, Shadow Fiend, Slark, Sniper, Terrorblade, Troll Warlord, Weaver.
Oracle
* Heroes with strong dispels can dispel Bane's disables from their allies: Oracle, Legion Commander, Omniknight.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 11%)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.
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.
Primal Beast
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)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. Should Sniper acquire an item of escape, Primal Beast can still delay him with Pulverize. Overall, Sniper is an ideal target for Primal Beast to constantly threaten in all stages of the game, and it can force Sniper to itemise for him.
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.
Additional:
* Fate's Edict completely negates all of Primal Beast's major damage-dealing spells in the early game and can render Primal Beast useless when cast on a target he is focusing, or in Oracle's defense against Primal Beast himself.
* Fortune's End keeps Primal Beast in place, especially while trampling or in the middle of an Onslaught charge.
* False Promise can interrupt Primal Beast's Pulverize, as well as further delay Primal Beast from dealing lethal burst damage. In combination with Fortune's End, Oracle can potentially save an ally from Primal Beast's spell combos.
Slardar
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)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.
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.
Visage
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 2%)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.
Sniper
* Heroes with long ranged attacks or abilities can harass Visage from afar like Phoenix and Sniper.
Omniknight
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 3%)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, then using Heavenly Grace which grants a massive strength boost.
Oracle
* Fortune's End's AoE dispel will remove Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel.
* Fate's Edict can give spell immunity for protection against Omniknight's abilities at the cost of being disarmed.
Additional:
* Oracle can dispel Heavenly Grace (which he can also bait out with Fate's Edict).
* With Fortune's End, Oracle can dispel Guardian Angel in an area of effect.
Sniper
*
Haunt instantly allows her to get up and close with Sniper, and 
Spectral Dagger makes it difficult to escape from her.
Spectral Dagger or teleport to him with 
Haunt.
Desolate will quickly tear Sniper down.
Dispersion reflect or reduce his damage, making her hard to take down even at late game.
Additional:
* Spectre can reach him easily in the backlines with
* He is usually a fair distance away from his allies, so
*
Oracle
* Oracle's burst damage is ineffective against
Dispersion.
Dispersion.
Fate's Edict does not hinder Spectre that much, since she can deal damage even without landing a single attack.
* 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
* Disarm from
