Troll Warlord
* Troll Warlord's high attack speed means Counter Helix will proc extremely frequently even without creeps near him. This, combined with a 
Blade Mail means Axe can easily solo kill Troll Warlord even in later stages of the game.
* 
Battle Trance does not save Troll Warlord from a Culling Blade.
Additional:
* Troll Warlord has significant attack speed due to Fervor and Battle Trance, giving Axe a higher chance to proc 
Counter Helix and seriously injure Troll Warlord due to his relatively low maximum health.
* Axe often purchases Blade Mail, which can help Axe turn Troll Warlord's farm and high physical damage against him. The bonus armor provided by 
Berserker's Call means that Troll Warlord will take a lot more damage than Axe.
* 
Culling Blade is still capable of killing Troll Warlord during Battle Trance if his HP is low enough.
Void Spirit
* Heroes with burst damage of their own won't be afraid to go toe to toe with Void Spirit, like 
Ursa, 
Lifestealer, or 
Axe.
Troll Warlord
* Low-health, normally mobile carries who rely entirely on raw attack damage are vulnerable to Bane's nukes and disables: 
Anti-Mage, 
Clinkz, 
Drow Ranger, 
Faceless Void, 
Gyrocopter, 
Juggernaut, 
Meepo, 
Mirana, 
Monkey King, 
Morphling, 
Phantom Assassin, 
Phantom Lancer, 
Riki, 
Shadow Fiend, 
Slark, 
Sniper, 
Terrorblade, 
Troll Warlord, 
Weaver.
Additional:
* 
Nightmare and 
Fiend's Grip help to control/disable Troll Warlord in team-fights.
Void Spirit
* Fiend's Grip and Nightmare are very useful to lock down Void Spirit.
* 
Brain Sap can be difficult for Void Spirit to deal with in the laning stage.
Troll Warlord
* Melee heroes with low mobility can be kited and killed by Viper: 
Treant Protector, 
Kunkka, 
Alchemist, Troll Warlord, 
Wraith King, 
Tiny, 
Sven.
Void Spirit
* 
Poison Attack makes it hard for Void Spirit to lane against him.
* 
Corrosive Skin reduces the magical damage from Void Spirit's spells.
Troll Warlord
* Troll Warlord's high speed attack makes Retaliate deal a lot of damage to him.
Void Spirit
* Heroes who can match Void Spirit's mobility (like the aforementioned 
Ember Spirit or 
Queen of Pain) or tank his spells (
Dragon Knight or 
Centaur Warrunner) are very problematic for him.
Troll Warlord
* Heroes that rely on physical damage are ineffective against Dragon Knight due to his high armor: Phantom Assassin,
Bloodseeker, Lifestealer, Troll Warlord, Sven
Void Spirit
* Heroes who can match Void Spirit's mobility (like the aforementioned Ember Spirit or Queen of Pain) or tank his spells (Dragon Knight or Centaur Warrunner) are very problematic for him.
Troll Warlord
* 
Atrophy Aura decreases Troll Warlord's damage.
* 
Pit of Malice helps lock down Troll Warlord.
* Battle Trance disallows Troll from running out of both 
Firestorm and Pit of Malice.
Troll Warlord
* 
Cold Embrace can protect Troll Warlord's target, especially during Battle Trance.
* 
Winter's Curse can turn Troll Warlord's high physical damage and attack speed against his allies.
Additional:
* Cold Embrace will protect your ally from being damaged if he gets focused by Troll, although be careful as 
Fervor will keep gaining stacks even while Cold Embrace is active.
* Fervor works on allies.
* His high attack speed will help to kill his cursed ally faster.
Void Spirit
* Ember Spirit has much higher mobility in 
Fire Remnant than Void Spirit.
* Ember's 
Flame Guard is effective against Void Spirit's spells, as most of them deal magical damage.
* The root from 
Searing Chains prevents Void Spirit from using Dissimilate or Astral Step.
Troll Warlord
* Shadow Shaman's long disables are effective at kiting and wasting the duration of Battle Trance.
* 
Mass Serpent Ward are especially effective against Troll Warlord during Battle Trance, as trapping him inside them during the duration is effectively another hard disable, as Troll cannot attack the wards or use Phase Boots to escape.
Void Spirit
* One hit with 
Jinada should be sufficient in removing Void Spirit's shield most of the time.
* 
Track negates much of Void Spirit's escape abilities by revealing his position and prevents him from rotating effectively.
Troll Warlord
* 
Frost Blast and 
Chain Frost can kite Troll Warlord effectively.
* 
Frost Shield can single-handedly waste most of the duration of Battle Trance, due to the extreme resistance to physical damage Frost Shield provides. In addition, Troll Warlord is incapable of switching targets during Battle Trance, so he cannot pick an easier target.
* Troll Warlord has little to no ability to regenerate HP, so Frost Blast together with Frost Shield can harass him effectively.
Void Spirit
* 
Spirit Siphon and 
Exorcism can damage through his 
Resonant Pulse shields.
* 
Silence can prevent Void Spirit escape or contributing much in fights.
Troll Warlord
* Dark Willow's burst damage and stun prevents Troll Warlord from approaching her until he has 
Black King Bar.
* Troll Warlord's lack of burst damage makes it hard for him to kill Dark Willow before she slips into Shadow Realm.
Troll Warlord
* Static Link is effective against Troll Warlord, as he mainly relies on attack speed more so than damage.
* Static Link is even more effective if Troll Warlord used Battle Trance, as he has no way to break the link.
Additional:
* 
Static Link can drain most or all of Troll Warlord's damage, making him useless in a teamfight or unable to last hit in lane. This is especially effective during Battle Trance, because Troll has no option to cancel the link.
* 
Storm Surge allows Razor to chase after or run away from Troll Warlord while doing damage with 
Eye of the Storm.
Void Spirit
* Queen of Pain can 
Blink to both escape and initiate onto Void Spirit.
* She is also a very common 
Orchid Malevolence carrier, which can prevent Void Spirit from contributing much in fights.
Troll Warlord
* Troll Warlord can't switch targets at will, in order to build Fervor stacks, which makes it easy to use Decrepify in order to save allies
* During Battle Trance, Pugna can easily use Nether Blast, Decrepify and Life Drain on him
Void Spirit
* Wins on the central line, thanks to its strong nukes 
Shadowraze, because of which Void Spirit cannot approach the creeps to farm gold and overtake Shadow Fiend by level
Additional:
* Wins on the central line, thanks to its strong nukes Shadowraze, because of which Void Spirit cannot approach the creeps to farm gold and overtake Shadow Fiend by level
Troll Warlord
* 
Timber Chain can kite Troll Warlord extremely effectively.
* 
Whirling Death and 
Chakram deals lots of damage to Troll Warlord.
* 
Reactive Armor makes Timbersaw extremely resilient to Troll's attack damage and extreme attack speed, especially during Battle Trance.
Void Spirit
* The brutal physical damage of 
Slithereen Crush and 
Bash of the Deep can quickly remove Void Spirit's shield and stun him for a while.
* 
Corrosive Haze provides vision of Void Spirit while he is running away and 
Guardian Sprint allows Slardar to quickly close the gap
Void Spirit
* 
Lion's instant cast point shuts down his initiation and buys time for his allies to catch up.
* 
Void Spirit has to be cautious when fighting, as he has no protection against 
Finger of Death. If caught out in a stun, the high magic damage could end him quickly.
Void Spirit
* Void Spirit can easily be bursted down by Puck's high magic damage spells in early game.
* Wanning Rift and Dream Coil prevent him from using two of his important mobility abilities: 
Dissimilate and 
Astral Step.
Additional:
* 
Dream Coil prevents the usage of Void Spirit's escape abilities and limits his damage output in fights almost entirely.
* Killing Puck in the late game becomes difficult when they obtain a 
Eul's Scepter of Divinity, 
Blink Dagger, and 
Phase Shift.
Void Spirit
* 
Refraction negates all of Void Spirit's burst damage.
* 
Meld quickly burns through Resonant Pulse.
Void Spirit
* 
Doom is effective against every hero, and Void Spirit is no exception. Being unable to cast spells or items during fights for 16 seconds nullifies his impact entirely.
* Doom has a very versatile build and can consume creeps which has abilities that can stun or provide additional magic resistance.
* Doom's high strength gain and versatility in items can be effective against Void Spirit's magical damage.
Troll Warlord
* Primal Roar and the slow from Boars make kiting Troll Warlord very easy.
Void Spirit
* Heroes that can purge his slow and disables are very difficult to go on and their team: 
Abaddon, 
Oracle.
Troll Warlord
* Heroes who rely strongly on melee physical damage will fare badly against Omniknight's Guardian Angel: Phantom Assassin, Juggernaut, Dragon Knight, 
Lycan, Ursa, Troll Warlord
Troll Warlord
* 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.
Void Spirit
* Heroes with burst damage of their own won't be afraid to go toe to toe with Void Spirit, like Ursa, Lifestealer, or Axe.
Void Spirit
* Nukers who have set amounts of damage will really struggle against Lone Druid especially in True Form: 
Puck, Void Spirit, 
Mars.
Void Spirit
* Side lanes with disables will greatly reduce the likeliness Void Spirit will be willing to rotate: Sven, Tiny, Wraith King, 
Ogre Magi.
Troll Warlord
* With 
Bloodthorn, Clinkz becomes a strong counter to heroes who rely on evasion and blind such as 
Windranger, Phantom Assassin, Troll Warlord and 
Keeper of the Light.
Troll Warlord
* 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.
Void Spirit
* Side lanes with disables will greatly reduce the likeliness Void Spirit will be willing to rotate: Sven, Tiny, Wraith King, Ogre Magi.
Troll Warlord
* In general, Brewmaster's Cinder Brew and Thunder Clap makes him good against physical damage carries: Ursa, Clinkz, Faceless Void, Troll Warlord, 
Templar Assassin, Phantom Assassin.
Troll Warlord
* Jakiro's reliance on his abilities can cause struggles for heroes who rely on evasion or blinds to get upper hand: Phantom Assassin, Windranger, Riki, Troll Warlord, Keeper of the Light.
Void Spirit
* Side lanes with disables will greatly reduce the likeliness Void Spirit will be willing to rotate: Sven, Tiny, Wraith King, Ogre Magi.
Troll Warlord
* Phantasm gives Chaos Knight a significant advantage against single-target damage dealers: Lifestealer, Wraith King, 
Night Stalker, Troll Warlord.
Additional:
* Chaos Knight's tanky illusions easily take advantage of Troll Warlord's lack of AoE damage.
* 
Chaos Bolt can stun Troll for up to 4 seconds and 
Reality Rift prevents Troll Warlord from chasing down foes.
* 
Phantasm increases Chaos Knight's physical damage output up to 4 times and can easily kill Troll Warlord before he has a chance to use Battle Trance or a Black King Bar.
Troll Warlord
* Heroes with mediocre health pools who rely on armor or evasion to survive fights such as Troll Warlord, Windranger, and Terrorblade can be killed by Zeus if caught off guard.
Troll Warlord
* 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.
Troll Warlord
* Heroes who cannot fight back during Arena of Blood in the early and mid game: Abaddon, Anti-Mage, 
Broodmother, 
Luna, Sniper, Troll Warlord, Weaver, Clinkz.
Troll Warlord
* Heroes who rely heavily on melee attacks and lack early spell immunity are easily blocked and interrupted by Ink Swell: Lycan, Ursa, Troll Warlord.
Troll Warlord
* 
Frostbite can disarm and root Troll Warlord if he doesn't have a Black King Bar or a 
Manta Style to dispel it.
* 
Crystal Nova and 
Freezing Field both significantly slow Troll Warlord, making him much more vulnerable to ganks or stuns.
* The magical damage from Freezing Field does a large amount of AoE damage, and Troll Warlord is not capable of cancelling Crystal Maiden's channel.
Troll Warlord
* Heroes with a low attack speed or are fragile will find themselves unable to deal with Troll Warlord's high physical damage and attack speed, like 
Crystal Maiden or Sven.
Troll Warlord
* Troll Warlord is very susceptible to 
Pierce the Veil due to having low health and reliance on high armor.
* Troll Warlord's ultimate Battle Trance can simply be ignored by using Pierce the Veil.
* Troll Warlord's 
Rampage buff for allies can easily be countered by 
The Calling which will lower their attack speeds back to normal.
Void Spirit
* Heroes with abilities that can close the gap can easily kill Muerta: 
Storm Spirit, 
Earth Spirit, Ember Spirit, Void Spirit, Lycan, 
Chaos Knight, 
Tusk.
Troll Warlord
* With 
Aghanim's Scepter upgraded 
Infest, Lifestealer can use it on enemy heroes to attack them and disarm them from inside, even if they are spell immune, which can give him the edge over the heroes he's weak against like Ursa, Phantom Assassin, Terrorblade or Troll Warlord.
Void Spirit
* Heroes with burst damage of their own won't be afraid to go toe to toe with Void Spirit, like Ursa, Lifestealer, or Axe.
Troll Warlord
* Lifestealer is a susceptible target to Fervor due to his non-mobile nature and lack of disables. Troll Warlord's ranged 
Berserker's Rage can also be used to kite Lifestealer safely. The root from its melee form also pierces magic immunity, which can potentially keep Lifestealer in place even while he is in Rage.
* Both 
Whirling Axes (melee) and 
Whirling Axes (ranged) can force Lifestealer to cast Rage too quickly and allow Troll Warlord to change strategies mid-fight, especially thanks to their separate cooldowns.
* Battle Trance allows Troll Warlord to survive Lifestealer's Feast and turn the fight in his favor.
Additional:
* The passive armor provided by Berserker's Rage makes Troll Warlord resilient to 
Feast in early game.
* The 60% miss chance given by Whirling Axes (Melee) is useful when 
Rage is not active.
* Battle Trance can purge 
Open Wounds, negating a large amount of Lifestealer's sustain in fights.
Troll Warlord
* Heroes that rely on right-clicks will find that their attacks will miss a lot, due to Whirling Axes (Melee)'s miss chance. Such heroes include Phantom Assassin, Terrorblade, and Morphling.
Void Spirit
* Void Spirit can greatly pressure Morphling's farm, which is very bad for a hero who needs a large amount of space.
* 
Waveform does not provide better mobility than Astral Step.
* If Morphling shifted all of his strength to agility, he can be bursted down by Void Spirit before he can react.
* Doing an Ethereal Blade combo on Void Spirit is incredibly difficult, as Dissimilate and Astral Step can allow him to escape or dodge the projectile.
Troll Warlord
* Terrorblade cannot go one on one against Troll Warlord as Troll Warlord will overwhelm him faster than the other way around thanks to Whirling Axes (Melee) that will cause his attacks to miss, and Fervor that can give Troll Warlord huge amounts of attack speed to outmatch Terrorblade, even during Metamorphosis.
* Troll Warlord's high attack speed from Fervor combined with 
Skull Basher and 
Abyssal Blade means that Terrorblade will have almost no chance to use 
Sunder to save himself.
* Even if Terroblade manages to use Sunder on Troll Warlord, Troll Warlord will simply be able to nullify it's effect with Battle Trance.
* Overall, any attempt for Terrorblade to engage and kill Troll Warlord will hurt him more than the other way around.
Additional:
* Terrorblade cannot go one on one against Troll Warlord as Troll Warlord will overwhelm him faster than the other way around thanks to Whirling Axes (Melee) that will cause his attacks to miss, and Fervor that can give Troll Warlord huge amounts of attack speed to outmatch Terrorblade, even during Metamorphosis.
* Troll Warlord's high attack speed from Fervor combined with Skull Basher and Abyssal Blade means that Terrorblade will have almost no chance to use Sunder to save himself.
* Even if Terroblade manages to use Sunder on Troll Warlord, Troll Warlord will simply be able to nullify it's effect with Battle Trance.
Void Spirit
* Heroes with abilities that can lock down Terrorblade and prevent him from using Sunder: 
Bane, 
Batrider, 
Earthshaker, 
Elder Titan, Faceless Void, 
Invoker, Legion Commander, Mars, 
Primal Beast, Riki, 
Shadow Shaman, 
Silencer, 
Vengeful Spirit, Void Spirit.
Additional:
* Void Spirit's high mobility becomes a nuisance to Terrorblade.
* Void Spirit's arsenal of magic damage is effective against Terrorblade's low strength.
* Terrorblade has no disables to prevent Void Spirit from escaping.
Troll Warlord
* Generally speaking, Spectre is a strong teamfighter but a weak manfighter. She has no tool to deal with troll warlord once he has his sight locked on her.
* Troll often buys 
Silver Edge and 
Monkey King Bar, which greatly countered Spectre's passive and item build (Silver Edge can disable passive while providing some damage, Monkey King Bar provides accuracy to counter 
Radiance and 
Butterfly miss chance).
* Black King Bar allows troll to bypass the damage return from Blade mail should Spectre attempts to fight back Troll. However, Black King Bar is generally not very effective against Spectre as her skills can pierce the spell immunity. Still, it offers protection against Blade mail, a common item for Spectre in the mid game.
* Troll has high lifesteal from Battle Trance and 
Satanic, which help him survive the damage from 
Desolate should the break duration is over.
* Battle Trance and Fervor mean Spectre will have a hard time fighting troll and cannot take him down, even with equal farm.
Void Spirit
* Void Spirit is strong against heroes who cannot deal with his rotations due to his mobility. Such heroes include 
Spectre, Gyrocopter, Morphling, and 
Chen.
Troll Warlord
* Troll Warlord's passive root, high attack speed, and blind from 
Whirling Axes makes him an exceedingly difficult opponent for Anti-Mage to take down in a one-on-one fight.
* Troll Warlord's low mana causes him to take little damage from Mana Void.
Additional:
* Whirling Axes (Melee) provides a 60% miss chance, preventing Anti-Mage from burning Troll Warlord's small mana pool.
* Troll Warlord's passive root allows him to very effectively fight an Anti-Mage by preventing Anti-Mage from 
Blinking away. This is even more effective when combined with a Skull Basher or Abyssal Blade.
* 
Counterspell will do nothing to prevent Troll Warlord's high physical damage.
* Due to Troll Warlord's abysmal base intelligence and intelligence gain, he is one of the worst targets to use 
Mana Void on.
Void Spirit
* Heroes who take a long time to become strong are in for a rough mid game, such as 
Outworld Destroyer, 
Magnus, 
Medusa, and Anti-Mage.
Troll Warlord
* Any hero who can survive Magnus's initiations and manfight him: 
Huskar, Faceless Void, Weaver, Abaddon, Troll Warlord, Alchemist, Dragon Knight, Night Stalker, 
Viper.
Void Spirit
* Heroes who take a long time to become strong are in for a rough mid game, such as Outworld Destroyer, Magnus, Medusa, and Anti-Mage.
Void Spirit
* Astral Step and Dissimilate makes a quick work of Phantom Lancer's illusions.
* Resonant Pulse helps clear illusions and protects Void Spirit from Phantom Lancer's physical damage and with the Aghanim's Scepter upgrade, it prevents Phantom Lancer from casting his abilities.
* Void's Spirit mobility makes it hard for him to chase down with Phantom Rush.
Void Spirit
* Keeping Void Spirit inside 
Wukong's Command is a very tricky task, especially in the early and mid game. In addition, if Monkey King is in a bad position, a well placed Aether Remnant can easily pull him out of the ring.
* Getting stacks of 
Jingu Mastery can be difficult when attacking Void Spirit.
Troll Warlord
* Battle Trance and Fervor can help Troll Warlord deal with Enchantress through Untouchable.
Additional:
* 
Untouchable's attack speed slow is easily remedied by Fervor stacks and Battle Trance.
* Troll Warlord is a natural Silver Edge carrier, disabling Enchantress' Untouchable.
Void Spirit
* A good choice against Invoker, as it has some advantage with the help of abilities.
* With the Dissimilate, Voidspirit can evade Invoker's skills, going to another world where he does not receive damage. The same ability to run away or attack quickly.
* Astral Step moves quickly from point to point, which also reduces the Invoker's probability that he will hit him with skills and cause at least some damage.
Additional:
* A good choice against Invoker, as it has some advantage with the help of abilities.
* With the Dissimilate, Voidspirit can evade Invoker's skills, like 
Chaos Meteor or 
E.M.P., going to another world where he does not receive damage. The same ability to run away or attack quickly.
* Astral Step moves quickly from point to point, which also reduces the Invoker's probability that he will hit him with skills and cause at least some damage.
Void Spirit
* Void Spirit can easily dodge Gyrocopter's {Ability ID:Homing Missile|gyrocopter} with the help of Dissimilate.
* Void Spirit can partly dodge 
Call Down via Dissimilate or move out of its range with Astral Step.
* Gyrocopter has no escape abilities, which benefits Void Spirit's high mobility.
Troll Warlord
* The ensnare from melee Berserker's Rage can prevent Primal Beast from dealing further Trample damage and can allow Troll Warlord to relentlessly build Fervor on him.
* Whirling Axes (Ranged) can slow down Primal Beast while trampling and allow Troll Warlord to better control him from range.
* Whirling Axes (Melee) can blind Primal Beast if he attempts to auto-attack Troll Warlord after a fully charged Uproar.
* Battle Trance will make Primal Beast a sitting duck should he be rooted and attacked to death.
Void Spirit
* Dissimilate and Astral Step allow Void Spirit to quickly escape from Cold Feet.
* Void Spirit deals both magical and physical damage, which makes Ancient Apparition an easy target to ambush.
* If Void Spirit purchases Aghanim's Scepter, the silence provided by Resonant Pulse can disrupt Ancient Apparition during fights, as he is entirely reliant upon spells to contribute.
Troll Warlord
* Troll Warlord's ability to attack as a ranged hero allows him to destroy Juggernaut's 
Healing Ward from afar.
* Battle Trance, when activated during 
Omnislash, allows Troll Warlord to survive the full duration of Omnislash and retaliate once it is over.
Troll Warlord
* Whirling Axes (Melee) makes it hard for Phantom Assassin to land a 
Coup De Grace.
* Troll Warlord often buys Silver Edge and Monkey King Bar, the items that greatly help against Phantom Assassin's Blur ability.
* Battle Trance completely negates Phantom Assassin's large damage output, preventing Troll Warlord from dying easily. The lifesteal also allows Troll Warlord to restore much of his health.
Additional:
* Troll Warlord can build a Silver Edge or a Monkey King Bar to completely ignore 
Blur.
* Whirling Axes (Melee) provides a 60% miss chance, making a Coup de Grace critical strike very hard to land.
* Battle Trance negates Coup de Grace, preventing Troll Warlord from dying to her critical hits.
Troll Warlord
* Due to Fervor and Battle Trance, Troll Warlord has a significant attack speed, enabling him to crush 
Tombstone quickly.
* Undying usually stays at the front line with no disables, making him an easy target for Troll Warlord.
Troll Warlord
* Whirling Axes (Melee) provides a 60% miss chance, which can make the attack speed bonus from Hunter in the Night largely ineffective.
* Berserker's Rage together with Battle Trance and Fervor stacks gives him a high chance of rooting Night Stalker, which allows Troll Warlord to man-fight Night Stalker in any stage of the game, regardless of whether or not it's night.
* Night Stalker is not a common Monkey King Bar carrier to counteract this problem.
Void Spirit
* Heroes that can easily bypass Chen's creeps to get to Chen: Riki, Tusk, Clinkz, Sniper, Slark, Phantom Assassin, Void Spirit, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, Earth Spirit, 
Spirit Breaker.
Void Spirit
* Heroes with considerable mobility can easily escape from a rolling Pangolier: Anti-Mage, Queen of Pain, Void Spirit, Storm Spirit, Ember Spirit, Earth Spirit, moreover, if a player is familiar with how Rolling Thunder works, they can adjust their movement to avoid it entirely and of course outplay the Pangolier player.
Void Spirit
* Heroes that can summon units will have their summons destroyed very quickly if badly micro-managed, like Chen, Lycan, and Phantom Lancer.
Troll Warlord
* Carries that can out damage Huskar will do well against him: Legion Commander, Faceless Void, Troll Warlord, Phantom Assassin.
Additional:
* Whirling Axes (Melee) provides a 60% miss chance, resulting in Huskar's attacks missing a lot of the time if it isn't dispelled.
* Troll Warlord's Fervor ramps up in a very similar way as Huskar's 
Berserker's Blood: as soon as Huskar has high enough health regeneration, Troll Warlord has a high enough attack speed to negate it.
Troll Warlord
* Mobility heroes will often be rooted by Troll Warlord and unable to escape, like Storm Spirit.
Troll Warlord
* Heroes who build Black King Bar as either core or situational item will be able to fight back against Nyx Assassin and freely attack him as Spiked Carapace cannot pierce spell immunity at all: Axe, Broodmother, 
Dawnbreaker, 
Enigma, Huskar, 
Jakiro, Legion Commander, 
Lina, Luna, Lycan, 
Slardar, Slark, Troll Warlord, 
Witch Doctor.
Troll Warlord
* Any hero with high attack speed will be a threat to Phoenix when it initiates, as they can easily tear down a 
Supernova, perhaps even while debuffed by Fire Spirits: Juggernaut, Clinkz, Troll Warlord, 
Beastmaster, Lina.
Additional:
* Due to Fervor and Battle Trance, Troll Warlord is one of the best heroes to deal with Supernova.
Void Spirit
* Heroes with either magical, physical or pure damage burst: Bane, Ember Spirit, 
Leshrac, Lina, Luna, 
Nyx Assassin, Phantom Assassin, 
Skywrath Mage, 
Tinker, Ursa, Void Spirit.
Void Spirit
* Heroes that can reliably kite out Dispose, Unleash and dodge Rebound, like Ember Spirit, Void Spirit, Storm Spirit, Anti-Mage, Faceless Void, Puck or always build items like Blink Dagger and 
Force Staff.
Void Spirit
* Heroes who take a long time to become strong are in for a rough mid game, such as Outworld Destroyer, Magnus, Medusa, and Anti-Mage.
Troll Warlord
* Other heroes that rely on physical attacks to deal damage and not their abilities: Troll Warlord, Sniper, Monkey King, Sven.
Void Spirit
* Void Spirit deals entirely magical damage in the early game, ignoring her evasion from 
Windrun.
* A Void Spirit with fast reaction time can use Dissimilate or Astral Step to dodge 
Powershot.
Additional:
* Void Spirit deals entirely magical damage in the early game, ignoring her evasion from Windrun.
* A Void Spirit with fast reaction time can use Dissimilate or Astral Step to dodge Powershot.
Void Spirit
* With Aghanim's Scepter, Broodmother will gain access to 
Spinner's Snare, which will allow her to create invisible lines on her webs from 
Spin Web that will root, deal damage over time, and reveal enemy heroes if they unwittingly step on them. This allows Broodmother to keep her allies alerted on heroes who rely on invisibility-themed and movement-themed abilities and items to surprise enemy heroes and disrupt ganking attempts of enemy heroes: Phantom Assassin, Nyx Assassin, Mirana, 
Bounty Hunter, Templar Assassin, Riki, Spirit Breaker, Anti-Mage, Tusk, Ursa, 
Nature's Prophet, Enigma, Void Spirit, Magnus etc.
Void Spirit
* Void Spirit's AoE damage can make short work of Broodmother's spiderlings
* Even if she is within the range of her spiderwebs from Spin Web Broodmother cannot escape Void Spirit's mobility.
* However, Spinner's Snare from Aghanim's Scepter can be very hazardous for Void Spirit, as it allows Broodmother to create invisible lines on her webs from Spin Web that will root Void Spirit, deal damage over time to him and reveal him if he unwittingly steps on them, disrupting Void Spirit's ganking or escaping attempts with Dissimilate and Astral Step while also alerting Broodmother on his attempts to ambush her and her allies.
Additional:
* Void Spirit's AoE damage can make short work of Broodmother's spiderlings
* Even if she is within the range of her spiderwebs from Spin Web Broodmother cannot escape Void Spirit's mobility.
* However, Spinner's Snare from Aghanim's Scepter can be very hazardous for Void Spirit, as it allows Broodmother to create invisible lines on her webs from Spin Web that will root Void Spirit, deal damage over time to him and reveal him if he unwittingly steps on them, disrupting Void Spirit's ganking or escaping attempts with Dissimilate and Astral Step while also alerting Broodmother on his attempts to ambush her and her allies.
Void Spirit
* Side lanes with disables will greatly reduce the likeliness Void Spirit will be willing to rotate: Sven, Tiny, Wraith King, Ogre Magi.
Troll Warlord
* Whirling Axes (Melee)'s blind makes Sven nearly useless in the early game and allows Troll Warlord to take him on comfortably.
* Battle Trance will mean Sven will never take Troll out in a 1vs1 with equal farm.
Additional:
* Berserker's Rage together with Troll Warlord's high attack speed gives Troll a high chance of rooting enemies, which allows Troll Warlord to man-fight Sven.
* Whirling Axes (Melee) provides a 60% miss chance, and the passive armor provided by Berserker's Rage makes Troll resilient to physical damage in early game. Sven's 
God's Strength is much less effective as a result.
* Beware that Sven can farm much faster than Troll Warlord by stacking ancients and clearing them with 
Great Cleave.
Void Spirit
* Meepo's 
Earthbind can easily lockdown Void Spirit.
* Meepo and his clones can easily burst Void Spirit's Resonant Pulse.
Troll Warlord
* Troll Warlord can root and deal a lot of damage to a single Meepo while lifestealing through the assault from the other Meepos. Meepo needs expensive items like 
Ethereal Blade or 
Heaven's Halberd to be able to fight him.
Void Spirit
* Void Spirit can dodge Earthbind with Dissimilate and Astral Step, giving him a good chance to escape. If he gets caught anyways, Resonant Pulse allows him to retaliate.
Troll Warlord
* Any heroes with low mana pools will die quickly or even instantly to Sanity's Eclipse: Doom, Phantom Assassin, Troll Warlord.
Additional:
* Outworld Destroyer's pure damage from 
Arcane Orb is very effective at killing Troll Warlord quickly.
* 
Astral Imprisonment removes Troll Warlord from a fight for four seconds, minimizing his contribution to a teamfight, and potentially wasting over half of Battle Trance's duration.
* Troll Warlord gains a measly 1 intelligence point per level, meaning 
Sanity's Eclipse is especially effective, often instantly killing him.
Void Spirit
* Heroes who take a long time to become strong are in for a rough mid game, such as Outworld Destroyer, Magnus, Medusa, and Anti-Mage.
Void Spirit
* 
Rupture will fully damage Void Spirit during his ultimate, removing his main escape mechanic during fights and his way to disrupt them heavily.
* 
Blood Rite will force Void Spirit to use Dissimilate or Astral Step or be silenced. In the latter's case, it can be dangerous when combined with Rupture.
Troll Warlord
* Berserker's Rage will repeatedly trap Bloodseeker in a one-on-one fight.
* Whirling Axes (Melee) blinds Bloodseeker, causing him to miss 60% of the time, and therefore reduces his ability to gain the upper hand in teamfights.
Void Spirit
* Special mention to Legion Commander, as she can lock down Void Spirit for a long amount of time without worrying too much about being killed by him during the 
Duel.
Troll Warlord
* Troll Warlord's melee bash and high attack speed can often help him and his allies win Duels against Legion Commander.
Troll Warlord
*
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.

Void Spirit
* Heroes that can purge his slow and disables are very difficult to go on and their team:
Abaddon, 
Oracle.
