Silencer Counters (7.41)
Who counters Silencer in Dota 2 7.41? Heroes Silencer is strong against and heroes it struggles against, ranked by win rate over ranked matches.
Silencer is an anti-caster whose Global Silence shuts down every enemy ability, Last Word punishes spellcasting, and Glaives of Wisdom steal intelligence over a game. He hard-counters spell-reliant heroes: Timbersaw (61.0%), Tinker (59.0%) and Templar Assassin (57.1%) get silenced out of their entire kit. Silencer is countered by illusions and right-click carries his silence doesn't stop: Spectre (44.4%), Phantom Lancer (44.6%) and Wraith King (45.5%) out-scale/body him, while Tidehunter (45.8%) brings competing AoE. Draft tip: Silencer is a premier anti-spell pick into combo/caster drafts; he's weaker into right-click illusion and hard-carry line-ups that don't care about silence.
