Anti-Mage is a farm-hungry carry who blinks around the map and burns enemy mana with Mana Break. He punishes mana-reliant cores hardest — his best matchups are heroes whose power lives in their mana pool, like Medusa, Tinker and Nature's Prophet, which Mana Void and Mana Break drain and punish. Where Anti-Mage falls apart is into early lockdown and pure-damage tanks: Meepo's clones swarm him, Axe's Berserker's Call ignores Blink, and Bloodseeker hunts him down — all stop his snowball before he comes online. Draft tip: pick Anti-Mage into greedy magic-damage line-ups; avoid him into Axe, Meepo, or any early-game gank squad that can end the game before he is farmed.

Anti-Mage wants partners who buy him time to farm and who turn his late-game blink-in into a kill. He pairs best with second hard-carries like Wraith King and Spectre that share the 'survive to late game' plan and overwhelm once items come online. Axe is a classic enabler: his Berserker's Call locks targets in place so Anti-Mage's Mana Void lands on a full-mana hero for maximum burst. Round it out with a pocket healer/saver like Lich to protect him through the dangerous early window.
