Tiny,
Wraith King,
Omniknight

Invoker or
Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Silencer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)Dazzle
* A well-timed Global Silence prevents Dazzle from saving allies with Shallow Grave or Shadow Wave. Items that could dispel the silence are expensive, and difficult for Dazzle to farm from a support role.
* Arcane Curse and
Last Word cause long damage over time, which may outlast Shallow Grave.
Beastmaster
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 2%)Tiny
* Primal Roar and the slow from Boars make kiting Tiny very easy.
Outworld Destroyer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 10%)Dazzle
* Astral Imprisonment is a versatile nuisance:
* If it is cast on a low-enough-health unit at least 1 second into Shallow Grave's duration, the Shallow Grave will end during the imprisonment, and the target will take lethal damage when released.
* It can be used remove Dazzle from the fight at a time he could have saved someone.
* It lets himself or an ally dodge all of Poison Touch's effects, for long enough to recover their Blink Dagger.
Jakiro
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 12%)Tiny
* Liquid Fire reduces Tiny's already abysmal Attack Speed.
* If Tiny Tosses a hero onto Jakiro, he can react with Ice Path, and potentially Macropyre.
* Tiny's Avalanche is easily countered with Ice Path.
* As Tiny has a very high Health, Liquid Frost is particularly effective against him
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Dazzle
* Juxtapose and
Doppelganger conjures too many illusions for Dazzle to deal with, given he has no inherent movement- or AoE-abilities.
* Phantom Rush and
Spirit Lance allow Phantom Lancer to trivially catch Dazzle even in the back line of a fight.
* Phantom Lancer has high base armor which counters Dazzle's physcial damage based spells in lane.
Axe
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Dazzle
* Culling Blade ignores the protection from Shallow Grave, and will kill any target whose health is low enough. This makes Axe one of the hardest counters to Dazzle, and he neutralizes one of Dazzle's most important abilities.
Additional:
* Culling Blade kills any target under the health threshold, even through Shallow Grave.
Viper
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Tiny
* Tiny has low movement speed and attack speed, making him vulnerable to Viper's slows.
* Corrosive Skin provides magic resistance to lower Tiny's magic burst damage.
Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Tiny
* Feast will deal a enormous amount of damage because of Tiny's huge health pool.
* Rage protects Lifestealer from Tiny's magical burst damage.
Sven
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Tiny
* Avalanche and
Toss will never be enough damage to take out Sven in a clean way.
* Tiny is very slow with low armour growth and does not buy items to sustain Sven's damage output.
Bristleback
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 43% pickrate: 1%)Tiny
* Tiny's nonexistent armor in the early game makes him very vulnerable to Quill Spray's large amounts of physical damage.
* Bristleback decreases Tiny's high burst damage against Bristleback.
* Viscous Nasal Goo can slow Tiny to a crawl and allows Bristleback to easily kite him with his high movement speed and Quill Spray's long range, as Tiny has no ability to escape.
Ursa
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 15%)Tiny
* Due to Tiny's non-existent agility gain, high physical damage heroes are more effective against him (Clinkz,
Templar Assassin,
Ursa,
Wraith King etc).
Spectre
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 11%)Dazzle
* Spectre's entire ability set is designed to get to and destroy heroes that stay in the backlines, both carries (like the aforementioned Drow Ranger and
Sniper) and supports (like
Dazzle and
Shadow Shaman).
Underlord
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Tiny

Tiny,
Wraith King,

Doom,
Bounty Hunter,
Dark Seer,
Undying,
Alchemist,
Legion Commander.
Drow Ranger
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 18%)Tiny

Phoenix, will greatly limit his Physical damage output.

Tusk
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 15%)Tiny
* Heroes that are able to slow Tiny's attack speed, like Tusk and
Phoenix, will greatly limit his Physical damage output.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)Dazzle
* Some heroes with extreme range, like Zeus,
Invoker or
Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Wraith King
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Tiny
* Due to Tiny's non-existent agility gain, high physical damage heroes are more effective against him (Clinkz,
Templar Assassin,
Ursa,
Wraith King etc).
Alchemist
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Tiny
* He can quickly take out heroes with low armor (Tiny) with his great physical damage.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)Tiny
* Mana Drain has an extremely long range and low cooldown. It can easily deplete most heroes of their entire mana pools, especially those with smaller mana pools such as Tiny or
Spirit Breaker.
Additional:
* Lion can continuously Mana Drain Tiny in the early game, depleting his small mana pool for his abilities.
Dazzle
* Heroes with high burst damage through their physical attacks or spells can kill Dazzle or his allies before he has a chance to use Shallow Grave. (Lina,
Lion, etc.)
Tiny
* Squishy heroes, usually supports, like Lion,

Sniper
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 11%)Tiny
* Long ranged heroes like Sniper or
Drow Ranger can kite Tiny effectively if he doesn't get the jump on them first.
Ancient Apparition
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 5%)Dazzle
* Shallow Grave prevents Ice Blast's shatter for up to 5 seconds, but can mostly only delay it as Ice Blast's debuff lasts 10 seconds and prevents
Shadow Wave from healing them.
Additional:
* Ice Blast negates healing from Shadow Wave, and lasts longer than Shallow Grave.
Tiny
* Squishy heroes, usually supports, like Lion,
Ancient Apparition,
Keeper of the Light etc can die quickly to Tiny's magic burst.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 11%)Tiny
* Blade Fury protects Juggernaut from all of Tiny's magic burst damage.
Dazzle
* 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.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Tiny
* Chaos Bolt and
Reality Rift makes Tiny's low mobility non existent.
* Chaos Strike means Chaos Knight will most likely survive longer in a duel between the two because Tiny has much lower attack speed.
* Chaos Knight has a 3.2 strength growth, making him one of the most tanky heroes and a very difficult target for Tiny to burst.
Dazzle
* Once he buys Aghanim's Shard, Dazzle's
Poison Touch can hex enemies, and hex can instantly kill illusions, making Dazzle strong against heroes who rely on illusions. Bear in mind that
Chaos Knight is the exception because his
Phantasms are strong illusions that are immune to abilities that can instantly kill illusions.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Dazzle
* Doom can completely shut down Dazzle through Doom, as it prevents him from casting his abilities and, by extension, gaining Bad Juju stacks.
Dazzle
* Heroes with the ability to heal allies, or those with good defensive abilities: Chen,
Dazzle,
Io,
Oracle,
Omniknight,
Witch Doctor,
Winter Wyvern,
Abaddon, etc.
Slark
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Tiny
* Toss and
Avalanche deals heavy damage to Slark in the early game, making Tiny a very dangerous target to gank.
* Tiny has 0 agility, which means Slark's Essence Shift permanent agility steal does not do much against him.
Dazzle
* Heroes that can deny Slark early kills will prevent him from snowballing: Dazzle,
Abaddon.
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Dazzle
* Shallow Grave can prevent the death of an ally that is trapped inside the Chronosphere.
* Shadow Wave lets Dazzle heal allies and damage enemies from outside Chronosphere.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Dazzle
* Venomancer's damage-over-time abilities are easier to heal through with numerous Shadow Waves than other types of damage, and it's simple to time a Shallow Grave until the last possible second to save a teammate from them.
Naga Siren
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 3%)Dazzle
* Mirror Image's illusions can easily walk straight at Dazzle and attack him, due to Dazzle's lack of reliable AoE nukes or disables.
* Ensnare roots Dazzle or his allies, making it harder to stay in range of Dazzle's saving abilities.
* Song of the Siren can be used to initiate a fight with superior positioning, potentially zoning Dazzle's high-impact spells out of the fight.
Tiny
* Avalanche and Toss combo makes short work of Mirror Image's illusions.
* Tiny's cleave with Tree Grab and area of effect damage with Tree Volley will easily wipe out illusions.
Dazzle
* Dazzle instantly destroys all Naga Siren illusions by having a Aghanim's Shard and using
Poison Touch on her or any of her illusions.
Legion Commander
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 13%)Dazzle
* Shallow Grave prevents Legion Commander from killing her opponents in Duels.
* Shadow Wave will heal an ally caught in a Duel, as well as dealing damage to Legion Commander.
Chen
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 0%)Dazzle
* Poison Touch severely slows down Chen, deals damage over time and weakens his armor every time he gets attacked by Dazzle or any of his allies.
Aghanim's Shard upgraded
Poison Touch can hex Chen and prevent him from saving his allies with
Hand of God.
* Neither Chen nor his creeps have burst damage at all, so Dazzle will always have plenty of time to save his allies with Shallow Grave.
* Dazzle can use Shadow Wave can heal his allies, kill Chen's creeps and damage Chen himself.
* Bad Juju can weaken Chen's armor, and the armor of his creeps every time Dazzle casts a spell while strengthening armor of Dazzle's allies.
Mars
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Dazzle
* Heroes that can save their allies can be a big problem for Mars: Dazzle,
Omniknight.
Void Spirit
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 5%)Tiny
* Side lanes with disables will greatly reduce the likeliness Void Spirit will be willing to rotate: Sven,
Tiny,

[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Dazzle
* Heroes that can slow Charge of Darkness by a huge amount: Venomancer,
Viper,

Arc WardenLion
Keeper of the Light

Ancient Apparition,
Keeper of the Light etc can die quickly to Tiny's magic burst.
Primal Beast
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 9%)Dazzle
* Primal Beast really suffers against supports he cannot bully in the lane; this includes Dazzle,
Shadow Demon and
Dark Willow since they can use their respective abilities to stop Primal Beast from dealing burst damage, or make it hard for him to stay in range.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 6%)Dazzle
* Heroes with abilities that reduce armor will make Huskar very vulnerable: Weaver,
Dazzle,
Bristleback,
Vengeful Spirit.
Visage
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 2%)Tiny
* Familiars will easily be able to kite heroes with a short range or with low attack speed. For example, Tiny and
Undying have a very hard time killing Familiars.
Tiny
* Tiny can deal with Visage's
Gravekeeper's Cloak quickly, as Avalanche deals damage in enough instances to completely remove all 4 layers of the passive. With Visage's lower than average Armor, a well positioned stun can allow Tiny to kill Visage easily.
Additional:
* Tiny's
Avalanche removes a significant number of layers from Gravekeeper's Cloak. When combined with
Toss burns through all of Gravekeeper's Cloak while doing triple times Toss damage to Visage in midair.
* Tiny's already high damage coupled with Tree Grab's attack modifier will make short work of Visage's Familiars.
Dazzle
* Heroes with armor reducing abilities greatly hinder Visage's defense like Slardar and
Dazzle.
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 1%)Tiny

* Heroes with high base damage (Morphling,
Tiny,
Drow Ranger), heroes with mana burning abilities (
Anti-Mage), and
Diffusal Blade users (
Juggernaut or
Riki) will suffer from Reflection's illusions.
Dazzle

Sunder on under the condition Dazzle is quick enough to do it.
* Poison Touch upgraded with
Aghanim's Shard can be used to easily kill many of Terrorblade's illusions, it can also hex the real Terrorblade, silencing him, disarming him, slowing him, and muting him.
* Bad Juju can weaken Terrorblade's armor every time Dazzle casts a spell while strengthening armor of Dazzle's allies.
Additional:
* Shallow Grave can be used to save an ally whom Terrorblade has used
Sunder on under the condition Dazzle is quick enough to do it.
* Aghanim's Shard upgraded
Poison Touch can be used to easily kill many of Terrorblade's illusions from both
Conjure Image and
Manta Style, it can also hex the real Terrorblade, silencing him, disarming him, slowing him, and muting him.
* Bad Juju can weaken Terrorblade's armor every time Dazzle casts a spell while strengthening armor of Dazzle's allies.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 3%)Dazzle
* Bloodseeker's
Thirst,
Rupture, and huge AoE silence
Blood Rite can fare well against Dazzle.
Dazzle
* Shallow Grave prevents Bloodseeker from replenishing his health by finishing off enemies.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Dazzle
* Some heroes with extreme range, like Zeus,
Invoker or
Clockwerk, can snipe your allies from anywhere after your Grave has expired.
Dazzle
* Aghanim's Shard upgraded
Poison Touch can be used to hex Clockwerk, silencing him, disarming him, slowing him, and muting him, and thus rendering him unable to use
Blade Mail to return damage or to do anything at all.
* Shadow Wave will hit Clockwerk every time when he's fighting with an enemy inside Power Cogs.
* Due to Clockwerk's very low damage output, Dazzle will have more than enough time to Shallow Grave any enemy hero Clockwerk initiates on.
Additional:
* Shadow Wave will hit Clockwerk every time when he's fighting with an enemy inside Power Cogs.
* Due to Clockwerk's steady damage output, Dazzle has plenty of time to Shallow Grave anyone Clockwerk initiates on.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 3%)Dazzle
* Support heroes with low mobility can be slowed further by Incapacitating Bite, and swarmed by Spiderlings for an easy kill: Shadow Shaman,
Visage,
Dazzle,
Rubick,
Lich.
Tiny
* Tiny can quickly clear Spiderlings with his active abilities and cleave.
Tinker
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 11%)Tiny
* Heroes with Evasion or abilities that cause Tiny to miss like Phantom Assassin and
Tinker are very effective because of Tiny's low attack speed. Additionally,
Monkey King Bar is not a good item for Tiny because of its reliance on high attack speed to proc for magical damage.
Dazzle
* Shadow Wave provides good sustain against Tinker's spammable abilities.
* Shallow Grave can stop Tinker from bursting down a target.
Templar Assassin
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 4%)Tiny
* Due to Tiny's non-existent agility gain, high physical damage heroes are more effective against him (Clinkz,
Templar Assassin,
Ursa,
Wraith King etc).
Tiny
* Heroes that have disposable area-targeted spells can force her to undo her Meld: Leshrac,
Puck,
Tiny,
Jakiro,. An experienced Templar Assassin could try to use Refraction before Meld so she can tank through those damage without getting her Blink disabled.
Necrophos
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 7%)Tiny
* Reaper's Scythe will turn Tiny's high health against him.
* Heartstopper Aura does substantial damage to Tiny as a result of his high max health.
* Ghost Shroud protects Necrophos from Tiny's physical damage with Tree Grab and Tree Volley.
Dazzle
* Reaper's Scythe is very predictable and gives Dazzle plenty of time to react with Shallow Grave: Dazzle just has to keep a close eye on his allies below 50% health.
* However, Dazzle must be sure to use Shadow Wave on that ally immediately after, or they will die from Heartstopper Aura when the Shallow Grave ends!
Additional:
* Dazzle's Shadow Wave is a spammable healing ability that spreads around his entire team, slowing the death of his teammates as effectively as Necrophos spreads damage to them.
* If not immediately, Shallow Grave delays his ally from gradually dying to Necrophos's abilities, especially Reaper's Scythe.
* However, bear in mind that Dazzle's Poison Touch,
Shadow Wave and
Bad Juju all deal physical damage, and Dazzle has no abilities to help him deal magical damage at all, which can cause problems for Dazzle to kill Necrophos if he uses Ghost Shroud to protect himself.
Clinkz
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Tiny
* Due to Tiny's non-existent agility gain, high physical damage heroes are more effective against him (Clinkz,
Templar Assassin,
Ursa,
Wraith King etc).
Dazzle
* Heroes that excel at grouping up with their team very early will be able to take advantage of a Clinkz that tries to pick off heroes that are alone: Brewmaster,
Dazzle,
Tidehunter.

About
This website was made to help you in pick stage of online game Dota 2. It calculates rating for each possible counterpicks based on tips from web-based database made up entirely of user contributions Dota 2 wiki.
You will get the list of recommended hero counters with a list of tips written by Dota 2 wiki contributors explaining why it's good against the particular hero. In comparison to other similar websites, which show only rating based on average hero win rate from dotabuff or similar service.
How to interpret this data
Take it with a bit of grain of salt, especially if the recommendation has a low rating (<= 1), some heroes
may win a lane in an early game but would lose in late game (and vice versa). That's why sometimes
you could hero names appearing as a counter and as being countered, as on image:
You can also add your own tips, update old data and fix mistakes by editing page on Dota 2 Wiki (it works like Wikipedia - anyone can contribute, you don't even need to register) these edits will appear on this website automatically (data is updated several times per week).
Right now there is no app/overlay that will detect picks automatically (like overwolf dota plus or become the gamer), instead, you can open web version in a steam in-game browser or use mobile version on your smartphone.

Tiny
* Heroes with Evasion or abilities that cause Tiny to miss like
Phantom Assassin and
Tinker are very effective because of Tiny's low attack speed. Additionally,
Monkey King Bar is not a good item for Tiny because of its reliance on high attack speed to proc for magical damage.
Dazzle
* Dazzle's lack of a true disable makes him a relatively vulnerable target for Phantom Assassin.
Shallow Grave.
* Coup de Grace will often kill Dazzle's teammates before he has a chance to use
