Nyx Assassin
[wiki] rating: 2.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Riki
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 13%)Vengeful Spirit
* Frail heroes who lacks mobility: Crystal Maiden,
Enigma,
Dark Willow,
Vengeful Spirit.
Enchantress
* Riki usually buys Diffusal Blade to initiate, which renders Enchantress' movement speed useless, and is usually followed with
Smoke Screen.
* Riki can effectively hit Enchantress by Tricks of the Trade alongside with
Diffusal Blade and
Smoke Screen's initiation. For a hero like Enchantress, 3 to 4 hits from Riki is a big deal, unless Enchantress built
Force Staff earlier.
Anti-Mage
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 11%)Vengeful Spirit
* Past the mid game, an isolated Vengeful Spirit makes for an easy kill for Anti-Mage.
* Magic Missile is the only disable Vengeful Spirit has against Anti-Mage, but he can either Blink away to disjoint the stun or reflect it back against Vengeful Spirit with
Counterspell.
* Nether Swap isn't very effective against Anti-Mage - if used offensively, Anti-Mage can simply blink away to safety, and if used defensively, Blink's low cooldown allows him to persistently chase as well.
Enchantress
* Heroes that can jump on her: Slark,
Queen of Pain,
Anti-Mage
Skywrath Mage
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 10%)Vengeful Spirit
* Skywrath Mage should have the upper hand against Vengeful Spirit with Ancient Seal.
* Vengeful is highly dependant on her abilities and has no natural means to deal against silences.
* Her low attack range allows Skywrath Mage to easily bully her out of the lane.
Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Additional:
* Untouchable is useless versus constant Arcane Bolts, and it doesn't help that her strength gain is the lowest in the game.
* A jungle Enchantress can weaken lanes and make Skywrath Mage's job easier.
* The magic amplification from Ancient Seal makes her even squishier to Skywrath and his allies' magic nukes.
Viper
[wiki] rating: 1.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 4%)Vengeful Spirit
* Nethertoxin disables Vengeance Aura.
* Vengeful Spirit has no mobility spells aside from Nether Swap, which Viper can take advantage of with his slows.
* Viper can easily bully Vengeful Spirit out of a lane with Poison Attack.
Additional:
* Nethertoxin prevents the attack damage bonus from
Vengeance Aura and the components of
Nether Swap.
* Both Magic Missile and
Wave of Terror are counteracted by
Corrosive Skin, making Vengeful Spirit's fighting harder against Viper.
Enchantress
* Heroes with break can disable Untouchable for a while: Doom and
Shadow Demon (via
Aghanim's Scepter),
Viper,
Shadow Shaman with Hex Breaks talent.
Lina
[wiki] rating: 1.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 16%)Vengeful Spirit
* Lina can burst Vengeful Spirit down, provided she can land Light Strike Array before Vengeful Spirit lands her Magic Missile.
* Laguna Blade deals massive damage, often being enough to kill a squishy Vengeful Spirit.
Enchantress
* Enchantress has a very small health pool and cannot tank Lina's heavy magic burst.
* Untouchable is decently countered by Fiery Soul, exposing Enchantress's weakness to physical damage due to her low armor.
* Lina is decent at clearing creeps and can kill Enchantress's creeps quickly.
Additional:
* Enchantress has pitiful health, and cannot tank Lina's heavy magic damage.
* Untouchable is decently countered by Fiery Soul, exposing Enchantress' weakness to physical damage due to her low armor.
* Lina is decent at clearing creeps and can kill Enchantress' creeps quickly.
Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with abilities that can pull Lina out of position can easily bring her to their team mates, like Batrider with
Flaming Lasso,
Pudge with
Meat Hook and
Vengeful Spirit with
Nether Swap.
Slark
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 17%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes who have a high mobility (Queen of Pain,
Storm Spirit,
Slark, etc.).
Enchantress
* Heroes that can jump on her: Slark,
Queen of Pain,
Anti-Mage
Queen of Pain
[wiki] rating: 1.2 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 6%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes who have a high mobility (Queen of Pain,
Storm Spirit,
Slark, etc.).
Enchantress
* Heroes that can jump on her: Slark,
Queen of Pain,
Anti-Mage
Additional:
* Untouchable won't mitigate magic damage, and a squishy Enchantress is very vulnerable to Queen of Pain's magic burst.
Broodmother
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 54% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Enchantress's lack of AoE abilities allows Broodmother to swarm her with Spiderlings.
* Spawn Spiderlings can kill enchanted creeps.
* However, keep in mind that Untouchable makes it harder for Brood to actually hit Enchantress, even if Broodmother is spell immune.
Additional:
* Enchantress can be easily overwhelmed with Broodmother's spiderlings from Spawn Spiderlings and Enchantress can only control one of them with
Enchant and she has no good waveclear (Spawn Spiderlings can also kill creeps controlled with Enchant).
* However, Untouchable's attack speed reduction can make it difficult for Broodmother to kill Enchantress even with any form of spell immunity.
Arc Warden
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 5%)Enchantress
* 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.
Razor
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Enchantress
* Static Link 's damage instants fully ignore Untouchable, combine with
Eye of the storm and high movement speed compare to Enchantress with no mobility, Razor can easily take away her squishy health pool.
Venomancer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 4%)Enchantress
* Untouchable won't mitigate Venomancer's magical damage, and Enchantress is vulnerable to magic damage.
* Both Venomous Gale and
Poison Nova lowers the amount of healing received by Enchantress and her allies from Nature's Attendants.
Phantom Lancer
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Vengeful Spirit
* Vengeful Spirit has no strong AoE nuke or disable against Phantom Lancer's Illusions.
* Phantom Lancer is a natural Diffusal Blade carrier, which reduces Vengeful Spirit's low mana pool very quickly, leaving her defenseless.
* Doppelganger can dodge Vengeful Spirit's abilites.
* Phantom Rush with his illusions can chase Vengeful Spirit efficiently.
Troll Warlord
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 2%)Enchantress
* Battle Trance and
Fervor can help Troll Warlord deal with Encahntress 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.
Zeus
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 14%)Enchantress
* Enchantress has a very low health pool, allowing Zeus to burst her down quickly before she can heal off the damage.
* Zeus will not be affected by Untouchable, as he won't try to attack her with right clicks anyway.
* Zeus can stay out of her attack range while trying to kill her, especially if he has bought an Aether Lens.
* Most heroes would want to get on top of Zeus to kill him, but Enchantress does not have this option as doing so would severely limit her Impetus damage.
* The exception is the laning phase, where Enchantress can gank Zeus if she Enchants a good creep.
Storm Spirit
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Vengeful Spirit
* Ball Lightning disjoints an incoming
Magic Missile, avoids
Wave Of Terror, and allows Storm Spirit to easily escape if he ever gets
Nether Swapped.
Bloodseeker
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 3%)Vengeful Spirit
* Nether Swap triggers extra damage from Rupture.
* Blood Rite sets up while Vengeful Spirit using her Nether Swap within a timed correctly.
Windranger
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 10%)Enchantress
* Windrun's speed allows easy pursuit or escape, while the evasion greatly reduces the threat of Enchantress's Impetus, especially when retreating.
* Shackleshot is a powerful disable if Enchantress gets too close to one of her own minions.
* Focus Fire can negate
Untouchable.
Tidehunter
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Vengeful Spirit
* Vengeful Spirit should carefully consider whether to use her Nether Swap on Tidehunter, as it can easily position him for a Ravage on Vengeful Spirit and her allies.
* Due to Magic Missile's high damage, Kraken Shell will often proc and clear Tidehunter's debuffs.
Marci
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 7%)Enchantress
* Untouchable doesn't work against Unleash, as Marci gains 1000+ attack speed for the fury combo.
* Enchantress' low health makes her a fragile target for Marci's damage blasts.
* Marci can use Rebound on one of her enchanted creeps to easily reach the Enchantress and negate the bonus damage dealt by her Impetus. It helps that most of her best creeps have a low attack range, creating a makeshift bridge towards their master.
Pugna
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Amazingly, Enchantress has even lower health than Pugna. Though she does pack quite a punch through Impetus, she can't use it if she is under Decrepify.
* Pugna's Magical DPS is way greater than the heal from Nature's Attendants, which will also harm her quite a bit if she's next to Nether Ward.
Rubick
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 25%)Vengeful Spirit
* Magic Missile is a solid damage source and lockdown that fits nicely with Rubick's kit.
* Rubick also acquires the secondary Magic Missile with
Aghanim's Shard.
* Wave of Terror can be used to scout an area to prevent juking or initiate with
Telekinesis, as well as reducing the armor of enemy team during a teamfight.
* Nether Swap does what it does - saving an ally from danger, initiating on an enemy, or helping with caughting a fleeing hero.
* With Aghanim's Shard, Rubick can lift himself up and drop quickly to a place of safety after the swap. Note that Rubick can only choose to either disable the enemy or save himself at one time with
Telekinesis.
Additional:
* All of Vengeful Spirit abilities are very good for Rubick to Spell Steal:
* Magic Missile provides an additional nuke/disable to pair with Fade Bolt and
Telekinesis, respectively.
* Wave of Terror serves as a good scouting/armor reduction skill that Rubick and his team can benefit from.
* Nether Swap complements Rubick's mobility and pairs well with other mobility items he usually builds. He can also use it to save an ally from danger.
Medusa
[wiki] rating: 1.0 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 1%)Enchantress
* Enchantress often has a small army of neutral creeps, allowing Medusa to hit her with a later bounce of her Mystic Snake.
Dark Seer
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 2%)Enchantress
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Oracle
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 4%)Enchantress
* Heroes with little health or magic resistance are easily picked off with Oracle's magic burst, such as Skywrath Mage,
Crystal Maiden, or
Enchantress.
Centaur Warrunner

* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,

* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Sand King
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 6%)Enchantress
* Sand King is a strong ganker, allowing him to shut down squishy heroes in the early game: Phantom Assassin,
Clinkz,
Sniper,
Enchantress,...
Shadow Shaman
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 6%)Enchantress
* Heroes with break can disable Untouchable for a while: Doom and
Shadow Demon (via
Aghanim's Scepter),
Viper,
Shadow Shaman with Hex Breaks talent.
Techies
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 10%)Enchantress
* 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.
Snapfire
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk,
Snapfire,
Spirit Breaker,
Techies
Spirit Breaker
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Vengeful Spirit
* Magic Missile has a considerably long cast time, making it difficult to stop Charge of Darkness with it.
* Other than Magic Missile, Vengeful Spirit has no way of canceling Nether Strike.
Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk,
Snapfire,
Spirit Breaker,
Techies
Enchantress
* Spirit Breaker won’t do much harm to Enchantress because of Untouchable and Nature's Attendants. Unless Enchantress is low on HP, Spirit Breaker won’t be able to catch her with mere spells.
Shadow Demon
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 1%)Enchantress
* Heroes with break can disable Untouchable for a while: Doom and
Shadow Demon (via
Aghanim's Scepter),
Viper,
Shadow Shaman with Hex Breaks talent.
Doom
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Enchantress
* An Aghanim's Scepter upgraded
Doom can be useful against heroes with troublesome passive skills while also disabling them for a long time:
Phantom Assassin,
Enchantress,
Huskar,
Underlord.
Lion
[wiki] rating: 0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 10%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Additional:
* Enchantress is very fragile without any form of magic resistance, allowing Lion to easily burst her down.
* Nature's Attendants is a slow heal, making it ineffective against Lion's burst.
* Enchantress lacks any escape mechanism apart from her raw movement speed, allowing Lion to disable her.
* Since Lion's damage comes mostly from his skills, Untouchable does nothing to mitigate it.
Juggernaut
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 11%)Enchantress
* Blade Fury dispels the slow from Enchant, and can burst Enchantress down during the laning stage.
* Omnislash and
Swiftslash's physical damage burst ignore untouchable.
* Silver Edge is a common item for Juggernaut for dealing with Untouchable.
Additional:
* Blade Fury dispels the slow from
Enchant, spell immunity and used to burst her down during the early laning stage.
* Omnislash and
Swiftslash's physical damage burst ignore
Untouchable.
* Silver Edge is an ideal item for Juggernaut to deal with
Untouchable, making her vulnerable to melee attacks.
Vengeful Spirit
* With the exception of Magic Missile (unless the player takes the Level 25 Talent "Magic Missile Pierces Spell Immunity"), all of Vengeful Spirit's spells ignore Spell Immunity. This also makes her good against heroes with built-in Spell Immunity like Lifestealer or
Juggernaut or heroes that tend to pick up
Black King Bar, like
Sven.
Luna
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 2%)Enchantress
* Enchantress has pitiful HP, even more pitiful than Luna, so Lucent Beam and
Eclipse will often harass and/or kill her through her Untouchable.
* With Moon Glaives, Luna can clear Enchantress's creep wave efficiently.
Additional:
* Though Enchantress's Untouchable can greatly reduce Luna's attack speed, and can go through any form of Spell Immunity, she has a pitiful HP so Lucent Beam and Eclipse can kill her very quickly.
* Moon Glaives allows Luna to clear Enchantress's creeps very efficiently.
Enchantress
* 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.
Timbersaw
[wiki] rating: 0.4 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 5%)Enchantress
* The burst damage from Timbersaw's abilities is more than enough to deal with Enchantress and her creeps.
* Timbersaw doesn't rely on his physical attacks, which makes Untouchable useless against him.
* Timber Chain can close the gap between them and minimize damage from Impetus.
* Bear in mind, however, that Timber Chain can also work against Timbersaw if used to escape and that Impetus can ignore Reactive Armor if Enchantress is not a primary target for Timbersaw or if he is disabled.
Enchantress
* Timbersaw has a difficult time against magical and pure damage: Lina,
Leshrac,
Enchantress,
Queen of Pain
Monkey King
[wiki] rating: -2.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 8%)Vengeful Spirit
* Wave of Terror grants flying vision over trees, and its wide effect can hit Monkey King and end Mischief.
* Nether Swap can easily cancel Wukong's Command by swapping him out of the circle.
Additional:
* She can easily cancel Wukong's Command with Nether Swap.
* Wave of Terror can also detect him while he's on the trees.
Enchantress
* Impetus pure damage ignores the extra armor granted from Wukong's Command.
* Enchant can dispel Monkey King's Jingu Mastery bonuses.
* Untouchable makes it hard for Monkey King to land Jingu Mastery stacks.
* Sproink allows Enchantress to escape from Wukong's Command.
Faceless Void
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Vengeful Spirit
* Nether Swap can save an ally from the Chronosphere.
Additional:

Enchantress
* Heroes that have an escape that doesn't disjoint projectiles: Mirana,
Faceless Void,
Magnus
Lifestealer
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 5%)Vengeful Spirit
* With the exception of Magic Missile (unless the player takes the Level 25 Talent "Magic Missile Pierces Spell Immunity"), all of Vengeful Spirit's spells ignore Spell Immunity. This also makes her good against heroes with built-in Spell Immunity like Lifestealer or
Juggernaut or heroes that tend to pick up
Black King Bar, like
Sven.
Enchantress
* Since Untouchable pierces Spell Immunity, Lifestealer cannot burst her down even with
Rage; meaning she can heal herself back to full HP.
Huskar
[wiki] rating: -1.6 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 6%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with abilities that reduce armor will make Huskar very vulnerable: Weaver,
Dazzle,
Bristleback,
Vengeful Spirit.
Additional:
* Huskar struggles against heroes that output high physical damage due to his low armor. Vengeful Spirit's Wave of Terror and Vengeance Aura help increase the physical damage of her team.
Enchantress
* Untouchable makes it near impossible to stack Burning Spears.
* Impetus' pure damage puts an instant end to Huskar's low-health brinkmanship.
Sniper
[wiki] rating: -1.2 (winrate: 44% pickrate: 11%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with catch to disrupt Sniper's positioning and deliver him into the enemies: Batrider,
Disruptor,

Vengeful Spirit.
Enchantress
* Range-reliant heroes: Sniper,
Drow Ranger
Grimstroke
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 4%)Vengeful Spirit

* Untouchable greatly reduces Chemical Rage's attack speed advantage.
Hoodwink
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 13%)Vengeful Spirit
* Nether Swap can forcibly reposition
Sharpshooter.
Sven
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Vengeful Spirit
* Fragile supports who die in a few hits against Sven's high physical damage: Crystal Maiden,
Vengeful Spirit,
Dark Willow.
Vengeful Spirit
* With the exception of Magic Missile (unless the player takes the Level 25 Talent "Magic Missile Pierces Spell Immunity"), all of Vengeful Spirit's spells ignore Spell Immunity. This also makes her good against heroes with built-in Spell Immunity like Lifestealer or
Juggernaut or heroes that tend to pick up
Black King Bar, like
Sven.
Enchantress
* Against her Untouchable, Sven is barely able to hit Enchantress even with his Black King Bar.
Witch Doctor
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 15%)Vengeful Spirit
* Vengeful Spirit has two abilities to interrupt Death Ward, even through Black King Bar.

* Vengeful Spirit can disable Batrider's Blink Dagger before a fight with
Wave of Terror.
Additional:
* With her Nether Swap, Vengeful Spirit can save the life of an ally who gets caught with Flaming Lasso. Nether Swap also makes it highly dangerous for Batrider to attempt a lasso, as it can lead to his own demise far behind enemy lines.
* Wave of Terror's flying vision allows Vengeful Spirit to spot Batrider trying to close in on his target with Firefly.
Ember Spirit
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 11%)Enchantress
* Impetus will deal huge amounts of damage when he uses a Fire Remnant to escape.
* Flame Guard is useless against Impetus as it deals Pure damage.
* Enchant can be used to dispel Flame Guard.
Enigma
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 3%)Vengeful Spirit
* Vengeful Spirit can interrupt Black Hole's channeling through Black King Bar by using
Nether Swap from a safe distance.
* Vengeful Spirit's Level 25 Talent can make her Magic Missile pierce spell immunity, giving her another option to use in conjunction with
Nether Swap to cancel Enigma's Black Hole channeling even through both,
Black King Bar and
Linken's Sphere.
Elder Titan
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 50% pickrate: 1%)Enchantress
* Untouchable makes her heavily reduce Elder Titan's physical damage output on her without Spell Immunity.
* Enchant can purge
Astral Spirit's buff without Spell immunity.

Clinkz
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 52% pickrate: 7%)Enchantress
* Untouchable prevents Clinkz from harassing Enchantress in lane by lowering his attack speed.
* Nature's Attendants helps Enchantress to sustain through Clinkz's harassment in lane.

* Enchant can dispel Overpower.
* Enchant's slow can help kite Ursa in fights and also in lane.
* Enchantress can out harass Ursa in lane by using her long attack range and Untouchable, as well as out sustaining him with Nature's Attendants.
Omniknight
[wiki] rating: -1.0 (winrate: 55% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Impetus is not blocked by Guardian Angel. A {U:Satyr Banisher} can also be controlled to dispel
Guardian Angel.
Additional:
* Enchantress's Impetus deals pure damage instead of physical damage and ignores
Guardian Angel, thus fully negating one of Omniknight's most important abilities for teamfights.
* Similar to Doom, Enchantress can use Enchant on Satyr Banisher, which will give her access to Satyr Banisher's
Purge, and allow her to remove Heavenly Grace and Guardian Angel.
Terrorblade
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 45% pickrate: 2%)Enchantress
* Heroes that can dominate his illusions or create their own illusions of him: Dark Seer,
Morphling,
Enchantress,
Shadow Demon,
Grimstroke with
Aghanim's Scepter.
Phantom Assassin
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 46% pickrate: 10%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with disables that ignore spell immunity will render Phantom Assassin quite useless in teamfights throughout the game: Axe,
Enigma,
Vengeful Spirit,
Doom,
Bane,
Beastmaster,
Pudge,
Medusa.
Pangolier
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 9%)Vengeful Spirit
* Certain heroes can mess up with Pangolier's positioning and timing (especially if he intends to use Rolling Thunder during combat): Vengeful Spirit,
Keeper of the Light,
Huskar,
Dark Seer

Drow Ranger
Meepo
[wiki] rating: -0.6 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 1%)Enchantress
* Meepo can quickly kill Enchantress with a
Poof combo, rendering Untouchable useless.
Vengeful Spirit
* With Nether Swap, Vengeful Spirit can isolate one of the Meepos, making him an easier kill for the team.
* Her Magic Missile gives her an easy way to cancel Meepo's Poof, preventing isolated Meepos from fleeing.
Enchantress
* Enchantress's
Untouchable slows down Meepos attacks and
Impetus can deal heavy pure damage to a single Meepo, however once Meepo has closed the gap she is an easy target for Poof.
Chaos Knight
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 47% pickrate: 3%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes who relies on illusions and summons (Beastmaster,
Chaos Knight, etc.).
Enchantress
* Untouchable will significantly slow down Chaos Knight's physical damage with Phantasm.
* Impetus deals double damage to illusions, making it effective against Phantasm.
Additional:
* Untouchable makes all of Chais Knight's attacks slow therefore he is unable to deal damage, especially his critical damage of
Chaos Strike, also enables Enchantress to escape easily from his attacks.
* However, Reality Rift can still pose a danger to Enchantress because Chaos Knight can decrease a good amount of armor, making it dangerous because of her little armor stat, as he can burst down Enchantress easily if any of Chaos Knight's allies can apply a break on Enchantress.
Beastmaster
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 2%)Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes who relies on illusions and summons (Beastmaster,
Chaos Knight, etc.).
Enchantress
* Untouchable negates Inner Beast's attack speed bonus, making her hard to kill even if stunned by Primal Roar.
* Enchantress can also take control of Beastmaster's summons.
Additional:
* Enchant can control Beastmaster's boars, mitigating his effectiveness during the laning stage and teamfights.
Lycan
[wiki] rating: -0.4 (winrate: 57% pickrate: 3%)Enchantress
* Heroes with haste can negate Enchant's slow: Weaver,
Dark Seer,
Lycan,
Centaur Warrunner.
Enchantress
* Lycan relies heavily on right clicks making Untouchable very effective against him.
* If he tries to run away Impetus will do huge amounts of damage.
Additional:
* She can Enchant one of the wolves to her side.
* Untouchable still slows Lycan's attack speed.
Bane
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 48% pickrate: 2%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes: Bane,
Lich,
Lion,
Skywrath Mage
Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with strong channeling spells like Crystal Maiden's
Freezing Field,
Bane's
Fiend's Grip, and
Enigma's
Black Hole can easily be interrupted from a long range by Nether Swap, assuming they don't have a
Linken's Sphere.
Crystal Maiden
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 13%)Enchantress
* Heroes like Enchantress and
Chen, or heroes that make use of
Helm of the Dominator are weak to Crystal Maiden, as Frostbite can do wonders against
Enchant,
Holy Persuasion, or dominated creeps. Careful though, as an army of carefully controlled creeps (
Enchantress and
Chen) can hold many stuns that will cancel Freezing Field.
Additional:
* Frostbite does 1000 magical damage to Enchantress's creeps and roots them for 10 seconds, which hinders her ability to gank.
Vengeful Spirit
* Heroes with strong channeling spells like Crystal Maiden's
Freezing Field,
Bane's
Fiend's Grip, and
Enigma's
Black Hole can easily be interrupted from a long range by Nether Swap, assuming they don't have a
Linken's Sphere.
Clockwerk
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 49% pickrate: 8%)Enchantress
* Heroes with nukes that can jump her: Clockwerk,
Snapfire,
Spirit Breaker,
Techies
Vengeful Spirit
* Vengeful Spirit can
Nether Swap enemies out of Power Cogs.
Additional:
* Nether Swap gives Vengeful Spirit a way to save an ally from Clockwerk's Power Cogs.
* Magic Missile will interrupt Clockwerk trying to run down Vengeful Spirit's allies with Battery Assault.
Chen
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 51% pickrate: 0%)Enchantress
* Chen can use Holy Persuasion on creeps controlled by Enchant.
* Ironically, Enchantress can Enchant Chen's creeps.
Enchantress
* Enchantress can turn Chen's own creeps against him with Enchant. The creeps still keep the health buff Holy Persuasion granted them.
Aghanim's Shard gives Enchantress
Little Friends ability, which allows her to turn multiple of Chen's creeps all at once against him.
* Untouchable and
Nature's Attendants make her difficult to kill.
Additional:
* Even though Chen can use Holy Persuasion on creeps controlled by Enchant. Enchantress can also use
Enchant on Chen's creeps.
* Aghanim's Shard gives Enchantress
Little Friends ability, which she can use to turn all of Chen's creeps against him for a short time when casted on him.
* Impetus's high burst damage can often kill any of Chen's allies before he can save them with
Hand of God
Mirana
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 53% pickrate: 15%)Enchantress
* Mirana can instantly kill creeps with Sacred Arrow, making her decent at crippling the armies of Chen or
Enchantress.
Enchantress
* Heroes that have an escape that doesn't disjoint projectiles: Mirana,
Faceless Void,
Magnus
Tinker
[wiki] rating: 0.0 (winrate: 56% pickrate: 11%)Enchantress
* All of Tinker's damage is magic/pure and completely ignores Enchantress's Untouchable. And Tinker's nukes can quickly decimate her small HP pool, sometimes even preventing Enchantress from even responding.
* As Enchantress relies solely on her primary attacks to deal damage, and rarely builds something to dispel it, Laser's Blind is particularly effective.
* However, Enchantress will probably build a Linken's Sphere against Tinker's Laser, so getting an additional disable is highly recommended.
Vengeful Spirit
* Wave of Terror can reveal a Tinker attempting to hide in the trees and then
Nether Swap and
Magic Missile will both serve to interrupt/lock him down, should he attempt to town portal or reload.
To start select enemy heroes in the field above. It's intended to be used with multiple heroes. The more enemy heroes you provide the better results you will get.
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.

Vengeful Spirit
*
Vendetta disables Vengeance Aura and allows him to attack Vengeful Spirit with
Impale and
Mana Burn.
Spiked Carapace is easy to use against a Wave of Terror or Magic Missile.
*
Enchantress
*
Vendetta can deal great damage against her. However, it requires an direct attack, so Nyx Assassin may have difficulties applying Vendetta on her.
Spiked Carapace can reflect Impetus and stun Enchantress.
Mana Burn can deal tremendous damage against her due to being an Intelligence hero.
Impetus.
* Enchantress's lack of mobility makes her a primary target for ganking with Vendetta.

*
Additional:
* Spiked Carapace reflects the damage from
* Enchantress is a rather squishy hero, making her fall easily to Nyx Assassin's high burst damage.
