How this matchup plays

Picking an Omniknight into a potential Nyx Assassin means accepting you'll be a primary target. Omniknight depends on expensive, fight-turning spells like Guardian Angel, but his mana pool is tight. A roaming Nyx can use Vendetta to find him before a fight and completely drain his resources with Mana Burn, leaving him unable to contribute. Spiked Carapace also creates a risk when Omniknight tries to use Purification to save an ally. Still, the advantage is minor. A well-positioned Omniknight can often cast his spells before getting caught, and Heavenly Grace on a core can be enough to survive the initial gank, potentially turning the tables on the assassin.
