Undying
* 
Meepo can quickly destroy Tombstone thanks to 
Divided We Stand.
Earth Spirit
* Heroes with high mobility can be prevented from using it to their advantage with Earthbind, even if they pack a dangerous arsenal: 
Earth Spirit, 
Ember Spirit, 
Storm Spirit, 
Nature's Prophet, 
Phantom Assassin, 
Riki, 
Anti-Mage, 
Weaver.
* See items and abilities disabled by roots
Undying
* Lifestealer is able to endure Undying, especially in the laning phase, where Undying is strongest. Feast can offset 
Decay's strength steal for its percentage lifesteal. Rage delays Undying from stealing strength and can help Lifestealer destroy Undying's 
Tombstone uninterrupted. As well, none of Undying's abilities pierce magic immunity.
Earth Spirit
* Clockwerk's 
Battery Assault disables Earth Spirit's Rolling Boulder, while his 
Power Cogs ensure, that Earth Spirit can't move away from it.
* His 
Hookshot allows him to chase after Earth Spirit, while using 
Rocket Flare to gain vision.
Undying
* 
Arcane Curse can effectively discourage Undying from casting his spammable abilities in a team fight, as Undying will have to suffer more damage and the slow due to the penalty duration of Arcane Curse.
* 
Last Word and 
Global Silence are able to silence Undying for up to 6 seconds, preventing Undying from gaining strength and healing his ally or himself.
Earth Spirit
* 
Shapeshift allows Lycan to chase down Earth Spirit.
Undying
* Tombstone's zombies rarely inhibit Anti-Mage, as he can either Blink away or onto the Tombstone and destroy it.
Undying
* Split Shot can destroy Tombstone Zombies and Tombstone itself while still damaging heroes.
Earth Spirit
* 
Aphotic Shield is a strong dispel, meaning it can save allies from Earth Spirit's stun, slow, silence, and Magnetize.
* 
Borrowed Time makes it nearly impossible for Earth Spirit to kill Abaddon.
Undying
* Chemical Rage will take down Tombstone in no time.
Additional:
* With 
Greevil's Greed, Alchemist can farm Tombstone zombies and gain a significant gold advantage.
Undying
* Necrophos is a dangerous opponent to go against with. Regardless of how much strength Undying has gained from Decay, Necrophos can finish off Undying with 
Reaper's Scythe once Undying's HP falls below a certain threshold.
* 
Heartstopper Aura will do more damage to Undying if he gained strength from Decay, as it does damage based on a hero's maximum health.
Earth Spirit
* 
Pounce's root prevents Earth Spirit from using Rolling Boulder to escape, making it easier for Slark to shut him down especially in the laning phase.
Undying
* Flak Cannon rips through Tombstone's zombies.
Additional:
* 
Flak Cannon enables Gyrocopter to clear the zombies easily.
Earth Spirit
* Ember Spirit easily finishes off all creeps on the line against Earth Sprit, exchanging health with him under his 
Flame Guard, which is why Earth Spirit can leave the line for ganks very early and without the necessary amount of gold and levels, which will give the Ember Spirit team an advantage to fight off such ganks
* The 
Sleight of Fist ability helps Ember Spirit dodge all of Earth Spirit's abilities, which makes his gank potential practically useless against Ember Spirit, and with the purchase of 
Black King Bar, Ember Spirit can use Sleight of Fist to combine with 
Searing Chains to catch and kill Earth Spirit.

Undying
* Tombstone can be stolen to counter-initiate the enemy team in skirmishes.
* Tombstone provides vision over the enemy around, use this to Rubick's advantage for more spells.
* Since 
Undying is melee and has low attack speed, the tombstone can be hard to taken down by Undying himself.
* 
Flesh Golem provides Rubick with increased Health pool and a powerful attack modifier.
* 
Rubick can apply the Flesh Golem debuff much more easily as a ranged hero.
* Decay is a decent damaging ability, making Rubick somewhat tankier in teamfights.
* 
Soul Rip can be used for extra heal or burst damage.
Additional:
* All abilities from Undying easy to steal to Rubick with 
Spell Steal.
Earth Spirit
* Storm Spirit outlanes Earth Spirit wins by having a ranged attack type, and also deals damage to the Earth Spirit every time he approaches the creeps with his ability 
Static Remnant, which is why he overtakes Earth Spirit in level and gold
* Storm Spirit has the ability to quickly kill Earth Spirit under his ability 
Electric Vortex, which Earth Spirit cannot do if Storm Spirit buys 
Falcon Blade at the liner stage, because Storm Spirit will have too much health for Earth Spirit`s abilities and will survive Earth Spirit`s damage.
Additional:

* Storm Spirit has the ability to quickly kill Earth Spirit under his ability Electric Vortex, which Earth Spirit cannot do if Storm Spirit buys Falcon Blade at the liner stage, because Storm Spirit will have too much health for Earth Spirit`s abilities and will survive Earth Spirit`s damage.
Undying
* 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.
Undying
* Luna's 
Moon Glaives and 
Lunar Blessing can help her destroy Tombstone easily, and this becomes more effective if Luna is equipped with 
Manta Style.
* Spell Immunity of Zombies from Tombstone is a total disadvantage against Luna because 
Eclipse will strike only Undying, which can turn Undying's own ability against him.
* Though Undying often builds 
Blade Mail which can turn Luna's burst damage against her, Luna often builds Black King Bar which will allow her to attack Undying freely because Blade Mail cannot pierce spell immunity.
Additional:
* Luna's Moon Glaives and Lunar Blessing can help her destroy Tombstone easily, and this becomes more effective if Luna is equipped with Manta Style.
* Spell Immunity of Zombies from Tombstone is a total disadvantage against Luna because Eclipse will strike only Undying, which can turn Undying's own ability against him.
* Though Undying often builds Blade Mail which can turn Luna's burst damage against her, Luna often builds Black King Bar which will allow her to attack Undying freely because Blade Mail cannot pierce spell immunity.
Undying
* Phantom Lancer's many illusions will easily destroy Tombstone, provided he has sufficient farm.
* He also has no ways of dealing with the illusions, since Decay doesn't steal strength from illusions.
Undying
* 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.
Undying
* 
Huskar's huge damage output and attack speed can get rid of Undying and Tombstone quickly.
Earth Spirit
* Heroes rely on their debuff to control the opponent will have a hard time against Press the Attack: 
Venomancer, Earth Spirit, 
Ogre Magi
Undying
* 
Mirana can destroy Tombstone, and evade zombies using Leap and Moonlight Shadow's invisibility.
Earth Spirit
* In general, highly mobile heroes like Earth Spirit or Storm Spirit are at a disadvantage against X Marks the Spot.
* Similarly, heroes with low cooldown teleports can be afraid to split push against X Marks the Spot, such as 
Tinker and Nature's Prophet.
Earth Spirit
* Heroes with fast movement abilities will suffer huge damage when afflicted by Rupture: 
Spirit Breaker, Earth Spirit, 
Dark Seer.
Undying
* 
Death Prophet is able to 
Silence Undying up to 6 seconds. Besides, due to Undying's high strength during a team fight, 
Spirit Siphon is a powerful ability against Undying thanks to the percentage health drain.
Undying
* Heroes without blink mechanisms or spell immunity will have a hard time positioning against 
Pit of Malice: 
Sven, Tiny, 
Wraith King, 
Dragon Knight, Meepo, 
Doom, 
Bounty Hunter, Dark Seer, Undying, 
Alchemist, 
Legion Commander.
Undying
* 
Chaos Knight's multiple illusions from 
Phantasm can destroy Undying, as Soul Rip can't offset the damage from the high amount of damage from his illusions.
Undying
* Heroes with summons that are destroyed by a fixed number of attacks: Undying's Tombstone, 
Gyrocopter's 
Homing Missile, and 
Zeus's 
Nimbus.
Undying
* 
Reactive Armor makes Timbersaw very effective against heroes that control a lot of units, such as 
Broodmother, 
Lycan and Undying.
Undying
* Tidehunter takes close to no damage from Undying's zombies once he maxes out his 
Kraken Shell, especially if he gets the level 20 Kraken Shell upgrading talent. This might allow him to blink away to safety.
Earth Spirit
* Positioning-reliant heroes (
Windranger, 
Tidehunter, 
Ursa...), since Earth Spirit can disrupt positioning with his Boulder Smash.
Undying
* Sniper can easily destroy Tombstone from long range.
Earth Spirit
* Heroes with high mobility can approach Sniper: Anti-Mage, Earth Spirit, 
Io, Nature's Prophet, 
Pangolier, 
Puck, 
Queen of Pain and most notably Riki.
Undying
* Generally, any fragile heroes will have a hard time dealing with Undying's tankiness, and even more so if Decay is used on them. Some examples are 
Crystal Maiden and 
Witch Doctor.
Earth Spirit
* 
Boulder Smash and 
Geomagnetic Grip allow Earth Spirit to easily disrupt Freezing Field, regardless of where Crystal Maiden is due to their incredible range. Earth Spirit is quite possibly the best hero for stopping long channeling abilities, and Crystal Maiden is vulnerable to him without a Black King Bar.
* All of Earth Spirit's spells allow him to easily close in on Crystal Maiden and kill her. Since she is a low health support, she generally stays behind in teamfights, but Earth Spirit can easily close the distance.
* Crystal Maiden has low movement speed and no other escape mechanism, rendering her extremely vulnerable to Earth Spirit's arsenal of long-range, damaging spells.
Undying
* Anti-Tank heroes like: 
Razor, 
Necrophos, Undying.
Earth Spirit
* Earth Spirit can easily disrupt 
Dismember because he can disable from a long distance with a Stone Remnant and Rolling Boulder. With talent he can even pull his teammates out of Dismember and also silence Pudge with Geomagnetic Grip.
Undying
* Undying saps strength from heroes with Decay, and Ogre Magi's high strength gain will allow Undying to steal more and more strength, becoming stronger with each use.
* Due to the Strength steal from Decay, Undying is normally very tanky, and has high health, making it harder for Ogre Magi to kill him.
Earth Spirit
* Earth Spirit's useful kit of Slows, Stuns, and Silences can set up kills on Ogre Magi and the silence can stop him from using his abilities.
Undying
* Undying's Tombstone will cheerfully chew through treants, incidentally netting you some extra income during fights.
* The above interaction tends to ensure that skirmishes are heavily populated with units, thereby buffing Soul Rip
Earth Spirit
* Boulder Smash's and Geomagnetic Grip's (upgraded with 
Aghanim's Scepter) repositioning and disables make it very difficult for Razor to keep enemies within range of Static Link and Eye of the Storm.
Undying
* Decay, Soul Rip and Flesh Golem all deal magical damage which ignores Bulwark.
* Decay reduces Mars' natural strength and therefore his health pool, which is what he relies on to trade effectively in lane.
Undying
* Undying can use Decay not only to reduce Sven's maximum health, but also to reduce the damage he can deal with his ultimate.
* Zombies spawned by Tombstone together with Flesh Golem slow Sven down significantly. Landing Sven's powerful but somewhat slow right-click on Tombstone would be a waste.
Earth Spirit
* Boulder Smash will push Sand King out of Sand Storm to reveal his position or an activated Epicenter off of Earth Spirit's allies, potentially wasting his combo
* 
Rolling Boulder and Geomagnetic Grip allow Earth Spirit to easily stun and silence Sand King and interrupt the channeling of Epicenter, completely ruining his initiation.
Earth Spirit
* Boulder Smash can return Tusk after his initiation.
* Geomagnetic Grip prevents Tusk from using Snowball to escape.
Earth Spirit
* Rolling Boulder and Geomagnetic Grip disable Faceless Void so he cannot escape with Time Walk.
* Rolling Boulder will allow Earth Spirit to get on top of Faceless Void at all stages of the game.
Undying
* Decay can be good against Centaur Warrunner, as reducing the health of Centaur can make 
Double Edge risky.
* His zombies do not proc 
Retaliate, as it only procs for regular attacks.
Undying
* Undying's Decay is a dangerous ability against Bristleback, as it makes him more vulnerable and reduces his tankiness.
* Undying's Tombstone together with Flesh Golem can slow Bristleback down significantly.
Undying
* Due to Spirit Breaker's low attack speed, Tombstone is problematic for Spirit Breaker as the zombies summoned from Tombstone apply a stacking movement speed slow, which can significantly reduce Greater Bash's damage.
* Soul Rip and Decay allows Undying and his allies to survive and recover from any incoming ganks by Spirit Breaker.
Earth Spirit
* Earth Spirit does not fly a small distance on Rolling Boulder using 
Stone Remnant, which will be a big problem for 
Life Drain, since Pugna will stop receiving health from breaking the distance of the ability, which will give the Earth Spirit team a chance to kill Pugna, by the way, this also works well with Boulder Smash, which pushes the enemy and can annoy the distance
* Earth Spirit has excellent control with a small recharge on Rolling Boulder and Geomagnetic Grip, which can knock down Pugna`s Life Drain, as well as completely turn him off in a fight, because he is very dependent on his abilities
* Magic damage from Earth Spirit's abilities can be disastrous for 
Decrepify, as it will kill him very quickly, and if Earth Spirit collects 
Ethereal Blade in such a game, it can easily destroy Pugna in one Rolling Boulder hit
* Earth Spirit also turns out to be a strong decision against 
Nether Ward, because he experiences it with his large amount of health, and if he collects 
Heart of Tarrasque(and 
Bracerin early game)in such a game, he may not feel it at all and calmly control Pugna with his abilities

Undying
* Spectre must chase for kills and relies on movement speed for mobility in fights, and has no way to counter the Tombstone zombies.
* The potency of Soul Rip can be increased from nearby illusions from Haunt.
* Decay will shut down Spectre during the laning phase by effectively cutting down her initial health pool.
Additional:
* Spectre must chase for kills and relies on movement speed for mobility in fights, and has no way to counter the Tombstone zombies.
* The potency of Soul Rip can be increased from nearby illusions, so Undying can use 
Haunt against Spectre.
* Early game Decay will make Spectre easy to shut down in lane.
Earth Spirit
* 
Black Hole is a channeling ability and Earth Spirit has at least two possibilities which can interrupt these kind of spells. Enigma is exposed and cannot move while using Black Hole, thus making it easy for Earth Spirit to stop the feared ability with the huge range of Rolling Boulder and forcing Enigma to quickly rush a Black King Bar to prevent this.
* Enigma is level dependant, squishy and relativly defenseless in the early game and therefore vulnerable to aggressive roam maneuvers in this stage of the game. Earth Spirit excels at ganking, shutting down a jungling or otherwise solo farming Enigma.
Earth Spirit
* Templar Assassin is dependant on 
Refraction in teamfights. Because Magnetize deals damage per second and Earth Spirit is even able to refresh the duration of his ultimate he is suitable for wasting Refraction and allowing his team to take her down.
Earth Spirit
* Geomagnetic Grip is not blocked by 
Linken's Sphere and can silence Morphling, preventing Morphling from using Waveform or Attribute Shift to escape from ganks.
* In addition, Boulder Smash and Rolling Boulder provide a solid lockdown if used together.
Earth Spirit
* Tinker is an easy target for Earth Spirit to initiate on. He likes to split push lanes once he acquires 
Boots of Travel and Earth Spirit can jump him with his Rolling Boulder and disable him to buy enough time for his teammates to come and assist Earth Spirit.
* The huge range of Stone Remnant and Rolling Boulder enables Earth Spirit to stop Tinker from teleporting to his fountain since Tinker tends to buy 
Blink Dagger most of the time to escape.
Undying
* Winter Wyvern cannot handle the Zombies created by Undying's Tombstone very well. In most situations, Zombies will have more movement speed than her.
* Undying can gain one or two easy Decay stacks on an ally in Cold Embrace. The ally will still take the damage as well.
Additional:
* Winter Wyvern cannot handle the Zombies created by Tombstone very well. In most situations, Zombies will have more movement speed than her.
* Undying can gain one or two easy Decay stacks on an ally in Cold Embrace. The ally will still take the damage as well, since it is magical.
Earth Spirit
* Squishy heroes (Io, Crystal Maiden, 
Lina...), as Earth Spirit can deal tons of damage with Magnetize.
Undying
* Heroes with a slow attack rate will find themselves struggling to take out Tombstone, like Doom.
Earth 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.
Earth 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.
Earth Spirit
* Positioning-reliant heroes (Windranger, Tidehunter, Ursa...), since Earth Spirit can disrupt positioning with his Boulder Smash.
Earth 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.
Earth Spirit
* Heroes that can gank Shadow Fiend in the early game: Earth Spirit, 
Nyx Assassin, Riki, Spirit Breaker.
Undying
* Generally, any fragile heroes will have a hard time dealing with Undying's tankiness, and even more so if Decay is used on them. Some examples are Crystal Maiden and Witch Doctor.

Undying
* 
Terrorblade can destroy Tombstone with his 
Conjure Image and 
Metamorphosis.
Earth Spirit
* Rolling Boulder and Geomagnetic Grip prevent Terrorblade from using 
Sunder.
* 
Magnetize Does heavy magic damage to Terrorblade and his illusions that bypasses his high base armor.
Undying
* 
Invoker's multiple spells can lock down Undying and disable him from doing much.
Earth Spirit
* Earth Spirit is a dangerous foe to encounter for Invoker in the early stages of the game. Since Invoker needs to gain levels as fast as possible and is not very strong in the early game, Earth Spirit can use his incredible early game power to gank Invoker and ruin his game plan.
* Earth Spirit combines stuns and silences with his spells and can apply them from a great distance. This is bad for Invoker as he is dependent on a smart usage of his spells with 
Invoke and Earth Spirit can disrupt his combos easily.
Earth Spirit
* Puck can forbid the opportunity to avoid trouble for Earth Spirit on his own Rolling Boulder, using abilities: 
Dream Coil, 
Waning Rift
Additional:
* Puck can forbid the opportunity to avoid trouble for Earth Spirit on his own Rolling Boulder, using Dream Coil and Waning Rift.
Earth Spirit
* Earth Spirit Eliminates the possibility of the Puck to hide in 
Phase Shift and avoid an attack by Geomagnetic Grip with its AOE-silence, which is why it can help the team kill him
* Puck can't throw off the effect of Magnetize any of his abilities, which is why he will constantly receive damage if Earth Spirit extends this ability with his Stone Remnant
Additional:

* Puck can't throw off the effects of Magnetize with any of its abilities, making it constantly receive damage if Earth Spirit extends this ability with his Stone Remnant.
Undying
* Zombies summoned from Tombstone will amplify the damage of 
Echo Slam due to them increasing the echo damage.
Earth Spirit
* Geomagnetic Grip can be used to silence Earthshaker after he blinks in, preventing him from executing his combo.
* Magnetize does damage over time and thus disables Earthshaker's Blink Dagger for a long time.
Undying
* Geminate Attack works on
Tombstone, allowing Weaver to kill it quickly.
* Zombies attacking Weaver disappear once he goes invisible with Shukuchi.
* Undying has no way to catch a mobile Weaver.
Earth Spirit
* Heroes who can dodge Earth Spirit's abilities:
Ember Spirit, 
Puck, 
Weaver
