Techies
* He can send wolves to defuse 
Proximity Mines, and he can catch up Techies and kill him before they can deny themselves. Even if the suicide is successful, Lycan can still survive because of his tankiness.
Arc Warden
* 
Magnetic Field is useless against melee heroes, so Lycan can attack Arc Warden without missing.
* 
Flux doesn't affect Lycan that much, because Shapeshift grants immunity to slows and because he is never alone.
* If their 
Tempest Double has been called, Lycan can still kill Arc Warden before the double expires.
Techies
* As long as Batrider is under the effect of Firefly, he can safely fly over Proximity Mines (He does not receive vision over the mines).
Arc Warden
* Batrider can harass Arc Warden more easily with 
Sticky Napalm thanks to it's low cooldown and mana cost and because of Arc Warden's lower durability and mobility.
* Batrider can use 
Flamebreak to push Arc Warden and Tempest Double out of the Magnetic Field.
* With 
Firefly combined with 
Blink Dagger, Batrider can move faster while dealing damage to both Arc Warden and Tempest Double.
* 
Flaming Lasso allows Batrider to separate Arc Warden from both Magnetic Field and Tempest Double and pull him towards Batrider's team. 
Aghanim's Scepter upgraded Flaming Lasso also allows Batrider to disable both, real Arc Warden and his Tempest Double and pull them towards Batrider's team. And since Arc Warden is not used to buy 
Linken's Sphere, this can be a great problem to him.
* Since Arc Warden is not used to buy 
Black King Bar very ofthen In most of the stages of the game, he will be vulnerable to Batrider's magical damage-over-time output in most of the stages of the game.
* However, Batrider needs to approach Arc Warden carefully as Arc Warden can scout Batrider's location with 
Spark Wraith. Also, Arc Warden tends to buy 
Gleipnir which combined with Flux's damage over time can be used to prevent Batrider from even using Blink Dagger.
Additional:
* Batrider can harass Arc Warden more easily with Sticky Napalm thanks to it's low cooldown and mana cost and because of Arc Warden's lower durability and mobility.
* Batrider can use Flamebreak to push Arc Warden and Tempest Double out of the Magnetic Field.
* With Firefly combined with Blink Dagger, Batrider can move faster while dealing damage to both Arc Warden and Tempest Double.

Techies
* Rage protects Lifestealer from all of Techies's abilities. 
Reactive Tazer's disarm will also not work on Lifestealer under Rage.
* Rage can also be used to trigger Techies's Proximity Mines safely.
Additional:
* Lifestealer's 
Rage lets him clear Proximity Mines without taking damage, and allows him to hit heroes whom Techies has used Reactive Tazer on.
Arc Warden
* Heroes with good escape mechanisms are a nuisance to deal with in the early phase of the game: 
Slark, 
Lifestealer, 
Morphling
Techies
* Heroes with summons like 
Broodmother, 
Enigma, 
Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like 
Naga Siren, 
Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
Arc Warden
* None of Arc Warden's abilities are very effective against Broodmother and her spiderlings.
* A good Broodmother looks to end the match early while Arc Warden, a very item reliant hero, thrives in longer matches.
* Arc Warden has no innate disables to stop Broodmother from lifestealing with 
Insatiable Hunger and shredding through his relatively lower armor.
Techies
* Heroes with summons like Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
Arc Warden
* Naga Siren's illusions from 
Mirror Image can depush the lanes pushed by the Tempest Double, relieving the pressure.
* Mirror Image can dispel Flux, and the illusions can stop Flux from working to it's full power.
Additional:
* Song of the Siren stops Arc Warden from acting and allows Naga Siren's team to close in on him, past his Magnetic Field.
* Mirror Image dispels Flux. The illusions created from it also disable the slow from Flux if Arc Warden casts it after Mirror Image.
* Arc Warden's playstyle heavily favors split-pushing, which Naga Siren can compete against with her illusions.
Techies
* Illusions can be sent out to destroy 
Techies mines.
Arc Warden
* 
Doppelganger dispels Flux.
* 
Phantom Rush closes the distance between Phantom Lancer and Arc Warden.
* 
Juxtapose can overwhelm Arc Warden and nullify his kit which is only effective against isolated enemies.
Additional:
* One of Arc Warden's hardest counters, Arc Warden, who has primarily single target damage, will struggle tremendously against Phantom Lancer:
* Flux is paused if even one illusion remains near Phantom Lancer. It can also be dispelled with Doppelganger.
* Phantom Lancer can also easily dodge an activated Spark Wraith, or use his illusions to trigger it safely.
* Phantom Rush allows Lancer to quickly close gap to get inside of Arc Warden's Magnetic Field.
* Phantom Lancer and his clones are able to quickly drain Arc Warden of his mana with a 
Diffusal Blade. This means Warden's Tempest Double will also be summoned without mana.
Techies
* Aphotic Shield makes it less likely for allies to be killed by mines.
* Because they explode in very short intervals, a stack of 
Remote Mines will always trigger Borrowed Time, making them impossible to kill Abaddon unless his resistances are lowered enough or Abaddon is affected by Break.
* Abaddon can easily dispel the long-lasting root of 
Stasis Trap on himself and on an ally, while at the same also providing protection against the other mines' damage.
Additional:
* 
Borrowed Time's automatic activation will help Abaddon survive a field of Proximity Mines or a Blast Off combo. However, the damage from a single mine can kill him if his HP is low enough.
* 
Aphotic Shield's can easily break Techies' Etheral Blade combo.
Techies
* 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.
Techies
* Familiars can fly over the mines, rendering them safe from damage of Techies's mines. Visage can also use Familiars to check for mines on the map.
* Techies's low attack speed and damage will give them a hard time in destroying Visage's Familiars, and that can become even worse if they are affected by 
Grave Chill.
* 
Gravekeeper's Cloak allows Visage to survive Damage from Techies's mines.
Techies
* 
Dark Ascension also allows Night Stalker to fly over Proximity Mines without triggering them.
* 
Crippling Fear is effective in stopping Techies from using Blast Off and 
Void is effective in stopping them from running to the safety of their mines.
Arc Warden
* Because of his weak laning phase, Lone Druid absolutely overpowers him in the early to mid game. Lone Druid also directly counters most of his abilities.
* Flux is nullified when the Spirit Bear is nearby.
* Spark Wraith can get soaked by the bear.
* Lone Druid can easily go inside Magnetic Field and punish Zet.
Techies
* Wraith King's skeletons from 
Vampiric Spirit keeps the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
* Wraith King is not afraid to go into a field of Proximity Mines, wherever he goes as long as 
Reincarnation is off cooldown .
Additional:
* Wraith King is not afraid to walk into mines, whenever he goes with his Reincarnation ready.
Arc Warden
* Chain Frost can deliver high amounts of damage to Arc Warden and his double if they do not separate fast from each other.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden cannot take Centaur Warrunner very easily, and his nukes are not strong enough to deal with Centaur Warrunner.
* Centaur Warrunner deals huge AoE damage and applies an AoE disable through Hoof Stomp, affecting the double as well the main Arc Warden.
* Magnetic Field is not very effective against melee heroes. And to make things worse, Magnetic Field also increases Arc Warden and his allies's attack speed, meaning Retaliate will deal more damage.
* Stampede catches Arc Warden easily due to his lack of escape mechanisms. However, Arc Warden can counter this problem with Gleipnir, which is a common item on Arc Warden.
Techies
* Shadow Demon's spammable illusions can be used to scout Techies' Proximity Mines.
Arc Warden
* Heroes with summons or illusions can counter Flux, such as 
Beastmaster , 
Chen, or 
Shadow Demon.
Arc Warden
* 
Chaos Knight, 
Lone Druid, 
Meepo and 
Arc Warden can be hard targets since Shadow Demon's spells are ill-suited to fight many enemies at once.
Techies
* 
Exorcism's ghosts will automatically clear all Proximity Mines revealed when Death Prophet walks near them, provided that the ghosts do not have a specific target at that time.
* Death Prophet is a natural 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity carrier, meaning she can easily escape a Blast Off initiation.
Techies
* Juggernaut can trigger Proximity Mines while in 
Blade Fury, and can walk away from a initiation with Blast Off if Blade Fury is activated before the silence.
* Juggernaut ignores Reactive Tazer when he uses 
Omnislash, whether Techies used it to protect an ally or themselves.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden can't use Magnetic Field to stall the damage of 
Nether Blast on towers, but he can buy 
Aghanim's Shard to diminish its damage.
* Arc Warden has no innate disables to stop 
Life Drain and 
Decrepify
* The short cooldown of both Life Drain and Decrepify also means Pugna can deal with Arc Warden and Arc Warden's clone simultaneously most of the time
* A good Pugna looks to end the match early while Arc Warden, a very item reliant hero, thrives in longer matches.
Arc Warden
* Invoker's 
Forge Spirit can negate Flux.
* Provided he does a right combo with 
Chaos Meteor, Invoker can easily burst down Arc Warden (plus his clone if he spawns it.)
* An early 
Orchid Malevolence can shut down Arc Warden pretty hard, especially when Invoker has a good lane against him if he kills him early on.
* 
Deafening Blast and 
Ice Wall limit's Arc Wardens mobility and damage, crippling him greatly.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden has relatively lower armor and mobility, which makes him an easy target to apply 
Quill Spray and 
Viscous Nasal Goo stacks.
* Arc Warden also does not like to build a 
Silver Edge as it takes a long time to build up and may slow down the timings for other important items needed in the game like Gleipnir.
* However, do note that in a game where Arc Warden's team has many jumping capabilities or good passives, like a 
Tidehunter or 
Spectre, a Silver Edge becomes incredibly valuable on Arc Warden as not only can he run away from the jumps, he effectively gets 2 breaks, and Bristleback may not be the best pick.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden relies on items and abilities, as well as his 
Tempest Double, to deal damage to enemies. 
Doom effectively denies that and makes Arc Warden useless in fights.
Techies
* Any hero with a low HP pool is easy for Tinker to nuke down: 
Crystal Maiden, 
Enchantress, 
Gyrocopter, 
Lion, 
Riki, Techies, Terrorblade, 
Necrophos, 
Invoker.
Techies
* Slow heroes that have a hard time escaping the Echo Stomp radius: Crystal Maiden, 
Pudge, Techies.
Arc Warden
* Melee carries who usually buy an early Black King Bar, and have gap closing abilities can be good against the Arc Warden, such as Slark, Riki, 
Earthshaker with Aghanim's Scepter, 
Sven with Aghanim's Scepter etc.
Techies
* Heroes with summons like Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
Arc Warden
* Melee carries who usually buy an early Black King Bar, and have gap closing abilities can be good against the Arc Warden, such as Slark, Riki, Earthshaker with Aghanim's Scepter, Sven with Aghanim's Scepter etc.
Additional:
* Flux is dispelled by Dark Pact.
* Pounce allows Slark to avoid Spark Wraiths.
* Tempest Double allows Slark to build up Essence Shift stacks, especially when it is being used for split pushing.
Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, 
Drow Ranger, 
Magnus, 
Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.
Techies
* Heroes with summons like Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.

Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, Drow Ranger, Magnus, Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.
Arc Warden
* Heroes with summons or illusions can counter Flux, such as Beastmaster , Chen, or Shadow Demon.
Arc Warden
* Magnetic Field doesn't provide a protection against 
Berserker's Call and 
Counter Helix and his high attack speed together with Tempest Double will often trigger Counter Helix.
* The threat of a blink and Berserker's Call may make the real Arc Warden stay further back, thus effectively halving the team's damage output for a while.
Arc Warden
* Heroes who can stop Axe from getting close will severely inhibit his presence in fights: 
Bristleback, Crystal Maiden, 
Batrider, Arc Warden, 
Winter Wyvern, 
Clockwerk
Techies
* 
Corrosive Skin will protect Viper from Techies' magical damage.
* Even though Reactive Tazer will disarm Viper if he attacks Techies with 
Poison Attack, he does lots of damage with his other abilities that can still kill Techies.
Arc Warden
* Ranged heroes will have a hard time hitting enemies inside Magnetic Field: 
Silencer, 
Viper.
Arc Warden
* 
Smoke Screen combined with Diffusal Blade leaves Arc Warden effectively useless for a while as he struggles to escape the silence with low mobility.
* With Arc Warden's low mobility, 
Tricks of the Trade often deal decent damage to him before he moves out of it.
Techies
* Techies is very good against roaming supports and gankers such as 
Bounty Hunter, Riki, 
Weaver, Earthshaker, 
Nyx Assassin, etc. that are constantly moving around the map.
Arc Warden
* Luna's Moon Glaives allow her to clear Arc Warden's Tempest Double.
* Luna's short range and fast movement speed allow her to fight Arc Warden inside his Magnetic Field.
Additional:
* Luna's Moon Glaives allow her to clear Arc Warden's Tempest Double.
* Luna's short range and fast movement speed allow her to fight Arc Warden inside his Magnetic Field.
Arc Warden
* Heroes that create illusions: Spectre, Shadow Demon, 
Phantom Lancer, Naga Siren, Chaos Knight, Terrorblade) or bring other units into the fight (such as Nature's Prophet, Lone Druid, Chen, Enchantress, Meepo and Arc Warden) can cause Eclipse to strike the illusions/summons unintentionally. However, in many cases Moon Glaives can resolve this issue and eliminate them before activating Eclipse, but that will require lots of farming for right-click items.
Arc Warden
* Rolling Thunder hits Arc Warden, his Tempest Double and any allies through Magnetic Field.
* Rolling Thunder also causes Pangolier to take no damage from existing stacks of Flux as well as clear all Spark Wraiths on the way.
Arc Warden
* Powerful physical hitters that can destroy Pangolier during his rolling from afar: Drow Ranger, 
Sniper, 
Templar Assassin, Arc Warden
Techies
* Plague Wards may reveal a hiding Techies. If there's a sentry nearby, they may also reveal a stack of mines hidden in a juking spot.
Arc Warden
* Any hero that can outrange Plague Ward can neutralize them without putting themselves at risk of receiving Poison Sting: Arc Warden, Chen, 
Clinkz, Drow Ranger, 
Lina, 
Mirana, Nature's Prophet, 
Pugna and Sniper.
* Special mention to heroes that outrange Plague Ward after obtaining talents that increase attack range.
Techies
* Heroes with low health will die easily during Duels, and can be farmed for damage in the early game: Crystal Maiden, 
Lich, Techies, 
Rubick
Arc Warden
* Heroes who rely on summons will see them destroyed easily by Overwhelming Odds: 
Lycan, Arc Warden, 
Warlock, Chen
Arc Warden
* Magnetic Field prevents Legion Commander from getting wins with 
Duel.
Additional:
* Magnetic Field prevents Legion Commander from easily gaining wins with Duel.
Techies
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk, 
Snapfire, 
Spirit Breaker, Techies
Additional:
* Techies does huge amounts of magical damage, which will bypass 
Untouchable.
* Enchantress depends on abilities to do damage and heal, which Blast Off's silence prevents.
Arc Warden
* Magnetic Field makes 
Impetus miss; if Enchantress decides to enter the field, she is giving up bonus damage since Impetus deals greater damage at higher distance away from targets.
Arc Warden
* Heroes with good escape mechanisms are a nuisance to deal with in the early phase of the game: Slark, Lifestealer, Morphling
Techies
* Morphling usually has low max health due to shifting strength into agility, which combined with Blast Off's silence will prevent him from using 
Waveform and 
Adaptive Strike (Strength), leaving him defenseless and making him an easy target to burst down.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden can counter Morphling's strong pushing capabilities by using Magnetic Field to protect buildings.
* Arc Warden also often builds an Orchid Malevolence or 
Bloodthorn, which can prove dangerous for Morphling.
* Arc Warden can easily break Linken's Sphere with Flux and then slow him with Spark Wraith, making Arc Warden's Tempest Double a legitimate threat as well.
Techies
* Heroes with summons like Broodmother, Enigma, Nature's Prophet; or illusions, like Naga Siren, Terrorblade are effective at keeping the choke points and rune spawns safe from Proximity Mines.
Techies
* Techies deals lots of magical damage with 
Sticky Bomb, Blast Off! and Proximity Mines that bypasses Terrorblade's high armor and can punish his low max life.
* Sticky Bomb is easy to land on a large clump of Terrorblade illusions and will damage and slow Terrorblade and all of his illusions if he can't quickly move the right one away.
* Reactive Tazer upgraded with Aghanim's Scepter can be used to protect an ally getting attacked by Terrorblade. Further, it disarms all of his illusions even while he has activated Black King Bar, greatly decreasing his damage.
* Blast Off! stuns Terrorblade, preventing him from casting 
Sunder.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden’s Magnetic Field allows him to defend against Terrorblade if he used 
Metamorphosis.
* Arc also buys a Bloodthorn or a 
Scythe of Vyse, which can prevent Terrorblade from using his abilities.
Techies
* Proximity Mines can be placed near trees to detect Monkey King.
* Follow up with Blast Off! to destroy the tree, causing Monkey King to take high damage, fall from the tree, and become stunned.
Additional:
* Techies can turn his tree jumping ability against him, by placing Proximity Mines that will detect him near trees, and then destroying the trees around him with Blast Off, stunning him and dealing high damage, on top of him being silenced when the stun expires.
* Monkey King's mobility is also severely limited around Techies' mines as he will almost always trigger them due to the cooldown time between tree jumps. Monkey King will be forced to take mine damage or escape with 
Primal Spring.
Techies
* After using Snowball, Tusk can't control where he's going, allowing Techies to make him roll onto mines.
Techies
* Remote Mines are frequently placed in trees, and can thus kill an unwary Hoodwink should she 
Scurry away due to her low HP pool.
* Blast Off! can clear out trees, denying the tactical advantages from Scurry.
Arc Warden
* Magnetic Field evades most of Gyrocopter's attacks.
Arc Warden
* Phase Shift is not an advantage against Arc Warden at all because Arc Warden can turn Puck's Phase Shift ability against him by using Spark Wraith, ensuring it to hit. To make this worse, Arc Warden can do it twice with his Tempest Double.
* Flux is also an instant spell (and therefore unavoidable) with a heavy slow and damage over time, which disables Blink Dagger for a certain period of time.
Arc Warden
* 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.
Arc Warden
* Sonic Wave is a bad choice in abilities if he and the Tempest Double both use 
Blade Mail to reflect the damage to Queen of Pain, potentially killing her outright if her health is low enough.
* Magnetic Field protects himself or his ally from Queen of Pain's attacks unless she has 
Monkey King Bar.
* One more advantage of Tempest Double is that he can deny himself if he is close to death with Shadow Strike's debuff.
Arc Warden
* Tempest Double, Magnetic Field's attack speed bonus, and Arc Warden's high attack range will easily destroy a Phoenix using 
Supernova much faster than usual.
* Phoenix is very weak against pushers, especially those like Arc Warden who can kill him easily, as his skillset works best in teamfights.
Additional:
* His Tempest Double is not an illusion, but rather a full hero unit, which effectively reduces half of the Supernova's health. His Magnetic Field can tremendously boost his attack speed, allowing him to destroy Supernova in no time even when he's affected by 
Fire Spirits.
Arc Warden
* Magnetic Field lets Arc Warden or allies evade Dark Willow's shadow realm attacks. The duration of the evasion can be extended with the clone.
* Spark Wraith also exploits Dark Willow's low mobility.
Arc Warden
* He can use either his own or his double's Flux to bypass the spellblock from Linken's Sphere, using the leftover Flux + Spark Wraith to slow Medusa's already low move speed to a crawl.
* Arc Warden has a farming advantage with double 
Hand of Midas, and can generally bully Medusa with other items that benefit from duplication.
Arc Warden
* Heroes that have doubles or clones such as Arc Warden, Meepo or Lone Druid are vulnerable to Muerta's 
Gunslinger.
Techies
* Heroes that commonly attack ethereal units will not have any problems against Muerta's Pierce The Veil: 
Tinker, 
Jakiro, Lina, 
Luna, Pugna or 
Ogre Magi, Enigma, Batrider, Techies, Broodmother, 
Dawnbreaker, 
Shadow Shaman, 
Bane, Tinker, 
Venomancer, Arc Warden.
Arc Warden
* Heroes with high physical and magical damage alike are a huge hazard for Muerta, as they can deal serious damage to her even if she has 
Pierce the Veil active: Luna, Lina, 
Tusk, Broodmother, 
Shadow Fiend, 
Ember Spirit, Gyrocopter, 
Vengeful Spirit, Arc Warden, 
Medusa, Shadow Shaman.
Arc Warden
* Heroes with illusions can overwhelm Huskar: Phantom Lancer, 
Anti-Mage, Arc Warden, Chaos Knight.
Arc Warden
* Ranged heroes will have a hard time hitting enemies inside Magnetic Field: Silencer, Viper.
Techies
* Some abilities deals damage from an independent source and not from the hero itself, so Nyx cannot counter them with Spiked Carapace: illusions or summoning units, 
Homing Missile, 
Nimbus, 
Mass Serpent Ward, 
Death Ward and especially Techies's mines.
Arc Warden
* Heroes that can slow Charge of Darkness by a huge amount: Venomancer, Viper, 
Dazzle, Arc Warden, Lion, 
Huskar, Shadow Shaman, 
Visage, 
Undying, Jakiro.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden's Magnetic Field dodges all damage from Death Ward.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden's Tempest Double is helpful for killing Ogre Magi who lacks AoE damage and disables.
Arc Warden
* Heroes with illusion and clone abilities may confuse Bloodseeker, causing him to waste time in fights: Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight, Arc Warden
Techies
* Techies is very good against roaming supports and gankers such as Bounty Hunter, Riki, Weaver, Earthshaker, Nyx Assassin, etc. that are constantly moving around the map.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden with his Magnetic Field will protect allies from Mass Serpent Ward.
Techies
* Heroes that provide vision will see Fiend's Gate coming: Techies, Templar Assassin, 
Treant Protector.
Arc Warden
* Heroes with summons or illusions can counter Flux, such as Beastmaster , Chen, or Shadow Demon.
Additional:
* Chen in the early game is a faster pusher than Arc Warden until Arc Warden buys Maelstrom.
Techies
* Techies can easily catch Chen off guard and kill him quickly with Blast Off! and 
Ethereal Blade combo, especially because Blast Off! can silence Chen and stun him when upgraded with Aghanim's Shard.
* However, Chen's converted creeps can trigger Proximity Mines, wasting them.
Techies
* Heroes with forced movement abilities or non-interrupting forced movement, such as Lion, Drow Ranger, Magnus, Mars, as they can cancel blast-off mid air, removing his ability to initiate or escape.
Arc Warden
* Magnetic Field protects Arc Warden and allies from Drow Ranger's ranged attacks. She most likely will not enter the field since she will lose 
Marksmanship's bonus agility.
* Beware however, as Marksmanship procs will still hit since they have True Strike, so the most damaging arrows will still hit you inside Magnetic Field.
Additional:
* Flux along with Spark Wraith allows Arc Warden to quickly burst down Drow Ranger due to her low health.
* However, Drow Ranger can bypass Magnetic Field's evasion bonus thanks to Marksmanship.
Techies
* Techies spends lots of time standing still planting stacks of 
Land Mines away from creep waves.
* Sacred Arrow can be used to scout hidden Land Mines among trees and at uphill places. It can also be used to catch Techies while he's planting them.
* If Techies is hit with a Sacred Arrow, he can be killed before he has a chance to use Blast Off!.
* Mirana has a high attack range to destroy his traps from a safe distance.
Arc Warden
* Arc Warden can use his summons to prevent 
Sacred Arrow from hitting himself or his allies.
* Mirana doesn't build items that give armor often, so she usually can't fight against a late game Arc Warden.
Additional:
* Flux will slow and damage Mirana even after she Leaps, since she will likely not be near allies.
* Arc Warden can place Magnetic Field on an ally who has been hit by Sacred Arrow to protect them.
Techies
* 
Refraction can be very useful in safely neutralizing Proximity Mine fields, or absorbing Techies' Blast Off combo.
Arc Warden
* Flux removes Refraction charges very quickly, and Arc Warden can hit her freely with his better attack animation, speed and range. If she tries to mute in her creep wave, Spark Wraith can quickly kill the ranged creep, forcing her to stay near the melee creeps, again, allowing for easy right clicks.
* With Tempest Double, Arc Warden can easily output 1000 damage (with the stacking of Flux and Spark Wraith and kill Templar Assassin within seconds. She cannot avoid this combo as Spark Wraith will still hit her in 
Meld.
* A good Arc Warden can destroy the item timings of a Templar Assassin, and mitigate her impact during the mid-game, when she is the strongest.
* In the late game, if Templar Assassin tries to split push with Aghanim's Scepter, Arc Warden's double can always threaten to kill her if equipped with a Bloodthorn and a Blink Dagger , or a 
Hurricane Pike, forcing her to have to use Black King Bar to survive.
* Quick reactions can also protect Arc Warden and his allies from Meld strike with Magnetic Field, and if equipped with a Hurricane Pike, Arc Warden can double force himself away from the attacking Templar Assassin to safety, where after her Black King Bar ends, she can die to Arc Warden's right clicks.
Arc Warden
* Chaos Knight can dispel Flux with 
Phantasm.
* Chaos Knight can use 
Reality Rift to pull Arc Warden out of Magnetic Field.
* Once Chaos Knight jumps on Arc Warden with Reality Rift, Arc Warden will struggle to escape due to low mobility and lack of stun.
Techies
* Techies has great area of effect damage to deal with Phantasm illusions.
* Blast Off silences Chaos Knight, stopping him from using his disables and allowing his teammates to walk away from his heavy damage.
* Reactive Tazer will disarm all of Chaos Knight's illusions even if he has activated his Black King Bar.
Arc Warden
* Storm Spirit can hunt down Arc Warden with his 
Ball Lightning and kill him quickly due to his lack of escape abilities.
* None of his abilities are effective against Storm Spirit, as they can be evaded with Ball Lightning.
Techies
* If Storm Spirit isn't careful, he could fall into a trap set by Techies and another hero acting as bait.
* Stasis Trap roots Storm Spirit for 2/3/4/5 seconds and Blast Off! silences for 4/5/6/7 seconds, which effectively prevents Storm Spirit from using Ball Lightning to escape for a lengthy duration.
Arc Warden
* A well-timed use of The Swarm provides vision over heroes with high mobility: Anti-Mage, Arc Warden, 
Dark Seer.
Techies
* Techies is very good against roaming supports and gankers such as Bounty Hunter, Riki, Weaver, Earthshaker, Nyx Assassin, etc. that are constantly moving around the map.
Arc Warden
* Melee carries who usually buy an early Black King Bar, and have gap closing abilities can be good against the Arc Warden, such as Slark, Riki, Earthshaker with Aghanim's Scepter, Sven with Aghanim's Scepter etc.
Techies
* Techies is very good against roaming supports and gankers such as Bounty Hunter, Riki, Weaver, Earthshaker, Nyx Assassin, etc. that are constantly moving around the map.
Arc Warden
* Flux is severely impaired against Meepo because of 
Divided We Stand.
* Meepo's farming speed and early powerspikes allows him to pressure Arc Warden before he is capable of fighting effectively.
* Without Black King Bar, 
Earthbind and 
Poof can finish Arc Warden quickly before he has time to do much.
Techies
* Reactive Tazer can lock multiple Meepos in place and prevent them from Poofing.
* Proximity Mines, Sticky Bomb and Blast Off! can deal heavy magic damage to multiple Meepos.
Techies
* Thanks to
Counterspell's magic resistance, Anti-Mage has a good chance of surviving a Blast Off combo.
Manta Style carrier, meaning he can dispel the silence from Blast Off and blink away when Techies initiates on him.
* Anti-Mage is a natural
Arc Warden
* Anti-Mage Blinks directly into
Magnetic Field, bypassing its protection.
Tempest Double while it is split-pushing.
Mana Break. 
Blink mitigates the threat of Flux slow and allows Anti-Mage to close the distance between himself and Arc Warden.
Manta Style, and can use it so dispel Arc Warden's items that can threaten an Anti-Mage like
