If you Doom the Spirit Bear LD can just resummon it if it happens to die, if you Doom LD then the Spirit Bear runs rampant. True Form's transformation time does not get interrupted by Doom and is not considered a heal, providing its HP bonus despite Doom's healing negation.
Lone Druid DESTROYS Ember in lane and completely shuts down his early game as he deals too much damage and has too much sustain for Ember to deal with. Ember's best bet is to try and get as much resources as possible from the lane and leave as the matchup only gets worse for him troughout the entirety of the laning stage. His Entangling Claws render Ember unable to use both his Sleight of Fist and Activate Fire Remnant.
LD can pick up an Aghanim's Shard and when combined with his level 15 talent for Savage Roar can have a low cooldown dispel for both Fate's Edict's disarm and Fortune's End's root for both LD and the Spirit Bear, that almost matches Fate's Edict cooldown. This makes it hard for Oracle to stop LD and Spirit Bear to run rampart.
