Necrophos/Counters

Bad against...

 * Oracle possesses strong healing abilites to nullify any damage that Heartstopper Aura might inflict during the laning stage.
 * Oracle can use both Fate's Edict and False Promise to protect an ally from Reaper's Scythe.


 * Ice Blast completely nullifies all healing done via Death Pulse or Sadist, as well as from Mekansm/Guardian Greaves, which is frequently bought on Necrophos.


 * Spell Shield makes it very hard for Necrophos to kill Anti-Mage with Reaper's Scythe. Additionally, Blink allows Anti-Mage to easily engage or disengage, since Necrophos has no form of crowd control outside of his ultimate.
 * As with most low-mobility intelligence heroes, Anti-Mage can kill Necrophos easily with Mana Break and Mana Void.





Others

 * Heroes like Shadow Demon and Outworld Devourer, aswell as Dazzle can protect their allies from being killed by Reaper's Scythe.
