Puck Counters (7.41e)

Puck is a slippery magic-burst mid whose Phase Shift dodges everything and Dream Coil punishes grouped enemies. It beats immobile, telegraphed heroes: Timbersaw, Mars and Shadow Demon can't reliably pin a hero that phases out of every cast. Puck is hard-countered by permanent-presence threats it can't juke: Spectre Haunts in from anywhere, Night Stalker hunts it at night, and Riki ambushes from invisibility. Draft tip: Puck excels into single-target, skillshot mids; it struggles into Spectre, Riki, Night Stalker, and any draft that ignores its slippery positioning.

In Dota 2 7.41e, the heroes that counter Puck hardest are Dazzle, Razor and Luna — Puck wins only 35.4%, 35.9% and 35.9% of ranked matches against them.
