Strategy
Consider swapping lanes if there is a need for sustain and debuff immunity on the other side lane.
Omniknight is a fairly weak laner. Focus on creep equilibrium, pulling and zoning opponents' support.
Avoid using Purification only to heal. Secure a ranged creep last hit or damage opponents at the same time.
If you can run down an opponent on the lane and have nothing to dispel, take Hammer of Purity on Level 1.
Avoid showing yourself at the start of the fight as you are the primary target for opponents.
Dispels are a big problem for Omniknight. Be mindful when using Guardian Angel and Repel.
Aghanim's Scepter is a massive spike for your entire team as it gives you a bigger AoE on Guardian Angel to affect more heroes as well as behave as a glyph for buildings.
A late game 
Refresher Orb combined with
Aghanim's Scepter makes it extremely difficult for the enemy team to destroy your buildings and helps you prolong the game if you are behind.
Counter Strategy
Omniknight's Purification will damage you if you are in melee range of it.
Omniknight's Repel applies debuff immunity. Use your disables after it expires.
Focus Omniknight in the fights as he provides saves and sustain for his team.
Spells and items that dispel are great against Omniknight's Repel and Guardian Angel.
Items that do magical damage are great against Guardian Angel.
