Suggestions on countering current popular heroes in ranked AP in General Discussion
Killer Queen

    Hello friends as we all know the current dominant heroes are Earth Spirit, Mirana and Slark . In my current games they are. My problem is countering all of these heroes because they are so versatile its beyond countering sometimes.
    I've seen scenarios where Slark gets countered by Blood seeker and countering Earth Spirit imo is basically picking a silencing hero, but I can't figure out how to counter a roaming Mirana ?
    Can anyone give any ideas on how to counter these three heroes? My current impression is if you pick them you just roflstomp and if you don't you get roflstomped.

        the potm pick is more about the impact of her ulti, drop sentries and u'll get them by surprise when they expect to take you by surprise.

        bs is not worth a pick, 0impact hero even tho it "counters" slark its not worth it, in most of scenario he's useless, if ur team dont snowball.
        reminds me of clueless guys that picked razor just to counter od on lane, even tho they had 0synergy with the rest of the pick.

        for es u can pick invo - ez

            @ frostychee Oh man that game is just comedy
            @ jussi doom is too heavy of a pick but yeah he counters everything if he gets undisturbed first 18 minutes
            @ ~ pretty much agree my problem is that the potm will 5 second stun my midlaner and then it goes downhill from there
            as for picking invoker to counter ES, yeah but I wish I didnt have to pick a carry-ish pick to counter an initaitor

                mirana is countered playing well! dont fucking counterpick her u stupid fuck (yeah i oick her often)

                why mirana is picked? because unlessthe enemy is more skilled or has a combo of gay heroes likeearth,fire, etc winning is up to the player!|

                  All three heroes are countered by proper teamplay, thats why they are pubstompers.
