Bad against...[]

Axe icon
  • Unleash ensures that Axe's Counter Helix icon Counter Helix procs many times, even if he is stunned by Dispose.
    • Aghanim's Shard icon Aghanim's Shard allows Counter Helix to reduce the attack damage of anyone it strikes. Combined with Unleash causing to proc frequently, Marci will not be dealing significant damage as she attacks Axe over time.
  • Axe doesn't worry about the damage from Unleash if he activates Berserker's Call icon Berserker's Call beforehand. If he had activated Blade Mail icon Blade Mail or Mjollnir icon Mjollnir (or even both) as Marci attacks him, he will turn Unleash's high attack speed and damage against her.
  • Usually, Axe would prefer to jump on his opponent to be more effective. Rebound does Axe a favor, bringing Marci within his most effective range.
Anti-Mage icon
  • Counterspell icon Counterspell will reflects from Dispose. Counterspell timing well can not throw from Dispose endured position and Dispose will blocked.
Bloodseeker icon
  • Rupture icon Rupture ruins her only movement ability, Rebound. Combined with its high movement speed and her being unable to interrupt it once its cast, using it under the effects of Rupture will surely deal incredibly immutable damage, if not kill her.
    • As a Strength hero, Marci naturally has high HP. Rupture's initial damage uses her high HP as a catalyst to deal damage depending on her current health, dealing a good amount of damage if she's full HP or forcing her to stop if she's low.
  • With Aghanim's Shard icon Aghanim's Shard, Bloodrage icon Bloodrage will now deal pure damage and lifesteal based on the opponent's max health. Her high HP as a Strength hero ensures that Bloodseeker will always deal significant attack damage and sustain himself a lot whenever he attacks Marci.
  • If Marci doesn't build Black King Bar icon Black King Bar, Bloodseeker's Blood Rite icon Blood Rite will prevent her from using all of her spells which she relies quite heavily on. Her only dispel is tied to Sidekick with level 25 left talent.
Dark Willow icon
  • Bramble Maze icon Bramble Maze will very likely catch Marci midair, disabling Marci's chasing/fleeing ability.
  • Shadow Realm icon Shadow Realm prevents Marci from bursting Willow down since she relies on physical attacks and unit target spells. With Aghanim's Scepter icon Aghanim's Scepter, Willow can hit Marci while Marci can't hit Willow.
  • Bedlam icon Bedlam and Eul's Scepter of Divinity icon Eul's Scepter of Divinity allows Willow to manfight if Marci initiates with Rebound.
  • Terrorize icon Terrorize and Cursed Crown icon Cursed Crown combo can waste Marci's ultimate for almost half of its duration.
Death Prophet icon
  • Spirit Siphon icon Spirit Siphon exploits her naturally high HP to deal a good amount of DPS. She may break the link with Rebound, but Silence icon Silence covers that problem.
  • Marci's poor armor makes her vulnerable to Exorcism icon Exorcism.
Lifestealer icon
  • Lifestealer's Rage icon Rage renders him immune to all of Marci's disables and magic damage for a good duration.
  • His passive Feast icon Feast deals bonus damage based on the enemy's max health and heals for the same amount. As a tanky Strength hero, Marci's own strength will be her undoing as well.
Lycan icon
  • Howl icon Howl reduces a good chunk of Marci's attack damage that she relies heavily on, and the armor reduction works better on her because of her low armor.
  • Shapeshift icon Shapeshift renders Lycan immune to slow from Rebound and Unleash.
Necrophos icon
Oracle icon
Pangolier icon
  • Pangolier's Lucky Shot icon Lucky Shot disarms her if procs making Unleash useless.
  • Swashbuckle icon Swashbuckle have a lower cooldown than Rebound so Pangolier can out maneuver her quite easily.
Warlock icon
  • Warlock has strong counter initiation which reduces Marci's effectiveness throughout the game.
  • Fatal Bonds icon Fatal Bonds cancels Blink Dagger icon Blink Dagger, which means Marci can move in and out of fights less effectively.
  • Chaotic Offering icon Chaotic Offering paired with Upheaval icon Upheaval provides a ministun, a movement slow and paired with Fatal Bonds icon Fatal Bonds has the potential to deal a lot of damage to Marci while she jumps on a target. The ministun also means that Marci will have a harder time casting Rebound. If Warlock does build Aghanim's Scepter icon Aghanim's Scepter and Refresher Orb icon Refresher Orb, the physical damage from Golems will overwhelm Marci, especially when played as a support.
Weaver icon
  • Marci's Dispose is blocked by Linken's Sphere icon Linken's Sphere which is a common item for Weaver.
  • Shukuchi icon Shukuchi allows Weaver to escape from Rebound icon Rebound slow.
  • The Swarm icon The Swarm beetle require 4 hits to kill. Weaver can use it on her when she use Unleash. This give Marci a hard choice: ignore The Swarm icon The Swarm and her armor keep decreasing or kill the beetle and wasting 4 attacks of Unleash.

Others[]

Items[]

  • Blade Mail icon Blade Mail ensures that Marci's attempts to attack the user doesn't go unpunished.
  • Heaven's Halberd icon Heaven's Halberd disarm can prevent Marci from using her right clicks, not to mention that it is undispellable.
  • Ethereal Blade icon Ethereal Blade turns Marci ethereal, preventing her from using right clicks, slowing her down, and making her vulnerable to magic damage.
  • Ghost Scepter icon Ghost Scepter protects the user from Marci's right clicks which makes up the bulk of her damage. Beware though, she can still affect you in this state with her Dispose and Rebound.
  • Eul's Scepter of Divinity icon Eul's Scepter of Divinity, Wind Waker icon Wind Waker, Abyssal Blade icon Abyssal Blade, Scythe of Vyse icon Scythe of Vyse, Rod of Atos icon Rod of Atos and Gleipnir icon Gleipnir and other abilities that can stop Marci in her tracks and keep her in one place, while you run away and is prevented to use Rebound to catch up to you.
  • The Silence of Orchid Malevolence icon Orchid Malevolence and Bloodthorn icon Bloodthorn prevents Marci of activating any of her abilities, that she heavily depends on to deal damage, catch enemys or run away.
  • Diffusal Blade icon Diffusal Blade can withle down her low mana pool and deplete it

Good against...[]

Enchantress icon
  • Untouchable icon 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 icon Impetus. It helps that most of her best creeps have a low attack range, creating a makeshift bridge towards their master.
Mars icon
  • Rebound allows her to jump in or out of the Arena Of Blood icon Arena Of Blood. She can save her allies from the Arena with Dispose as well.
Nature's Prophet icon
  • Sprout icon Sprout can't stop her to Rebound.
  • Treants can be used as targets for Rebound and Dispose as well.
Phoenix icon
  • Marci can destroy Supernova icon Supernova by herself with Unleash at any stage of the game.
  • Phoenix is squishy hero with low armor and is very vulnerable for Rebound and Sidekick at the laning stage.
Zeus icon
  • Marci on the midlane will win the laning phase against Zeus almost every time, as her powerspike at level 6 will decimate Zeus' low health pool and force him to stay far back.
  • Even before level 6, Dispose and Sidekick can easily take half of Zeus' health if he is in range of Dispose.

Others[]

  • Marci can be effective against vulnerable squishy heroes that cannot deal with heroes that jump onto them - Sniper minimap icon Sniper, Drow Ranger minimap icon Drow Ranger, Lina minimap icon Lina, Rubick minimap icon Rubick, etc.

Works well with...[]

Grimstroke icon
  • If he binds two heroes using his Soulbind icon Soulbind, Marci can use Dispose to pull both enemy heroes to the same location (making it something like Vacuum or Reverse Polarity).
  • Marci is perfect target for Ink Swell icon Ink Swell to make a combo with Rebound and Dispose.
Lifestealer icon
  • Lifestealer can Infest icon Infest Marci as she leaps towards an enemy hero with Rebound during ganks, bringing them both towards the enemy. While Lifestealer is inside her, she gains bonus HP points that compliments her tankiness and bonus movement speed for more mobility.
  • Open Wounds icon Open Wounds gained from buying an Aghanim's Shard icon Aghanim's Shard is a no-brainer with its powerful slow and shared lifesteal, adding to the duo's powerful array of disables and sustainability.
Lycan icon
  • Marci is a great recipient for Lycan's Wolf Bite icon Wolf Bite. Simply cast it on her (especially when she has used Unleash) and watch as a mute whistling wolf that's immune to slows, has better mobility with haste and Rebound, can further buff herself with lifesteal from Sidekick and damage (granting a ridiculous total of 80% lifesteal or 130% with talents!), shreds through their enemies with multiple crits per second! Make sure to stay near Lycan to gain the lifesteal and shared healing if one requires it.
  • Howl icon Howl reduces the opponent's armor and attack damage, making them easier to kill while making both Lycan and Marci harder to kill.
  • Lycan himself and his wolves give herself a boost with her Rebound. In turn, Lycan or his wolves gain bonus movement speed outside of Shapeshift icon Shapeshift, allowing them to catch up during ganks.
Razor icon
  • Razor and Marci are strong lane partners. Razor's Static Link icon Static Link benefits from Dispose which can extend the link's duration. Paired with Sidekick, Razor has the ability to burst enemy carries in the laning stage.
  • Marci's Rebound helps further slow enemies in a radius around the jump target. This synergizes well with Plasma Field icon Plasma Field which also provides a move speed slow.
Snapfire icon
  • Snapfire can buy Aghanim's Scepter icon Aghanim's Scepter to gain Gobble Up icon Gobble Up. Casting it on Marci allows her to easily reach the target while saving the use of Rebound for later.
Troll Warlord icon
  • If Troll bought an Aghanim's Shard icon Aghanim's Shard, he can use his Rampage icon Rampage to increase Marci's attack speed outside of her Unleash or provide status resistance.
  • Troll will have a secondary source of sustainable lifesteal if Marci commits to buffing him with Sidekick.
Ursa icon
  • Ursa gains a secondary source of lifesteal and damage with Sidekick, allowing him to shred his enemies and sustain himself further and take down Roshan faster.
  • Marci can Rebound off of Ursa to slow a distant enemy, while Ursa catches up with the bonus movement speed. She may use her Dispose to throw an enemy towards Ursa if they're close enough.
Venomancer icon
  • If Venomancer sets up a few Plague Ward icon Plague Wards, Marci and Venomancer can easily get a kill with Dispose at almost any time during the laning phase.
  • Venomancer's slows will prevent most attempts at running away after Dispose.
