Alchemist counters & matchups
Alchemist is a hyper-farming carry whose Greevil's Greed gives him absurd gold, Acid Spray shreds armor, and Unstable Concoction stuns — and he can gift an Aghanim's to any ally. He out-farms and out-scales immobile heroes: Mars, Nature's Prophet and Timbersaw lose the economy war. Alchemist is countered by early aggression and break that beat his greed: Lifestealer, Night Stalker and Slark snowball before he comes online. Draft tip: Alchemist is a brutal scaling pick into passive drafts; punish him early with Night Stalker/Slark aggression before his economy spirals.

Alchemist synergies
Alchemist's signature trick is gifting Aghanim's Scepters to the whole team, turning support kits into ultimates — he's one of the best enablers in the game. He pairs best with Aghs-hungry cores: Primal Beast and Phantom Lancer become monsters with a free upgrade, while Slark snowballs off the gold tempo. Give Alchemist a hero whose Aghanim's is game-changing and his Greed funds the entire team's power spike.
