Strategy
Apply Aphotic Shield pre-emptively on yourself as you are coming to lane after rune fight. Apply another as the previous one expires to inflict great AoE damage. Pull afterwards.
Play ahead of the Core you are supporting to absorb damage and trade regen.
Salve or clarity won't be canceled while you have Apothic Shield on.
If someone applies a break effect on you, you will have to trigger Borrowed Time manually.
If you got disabled along with your teammate you can pop Borrowed Time to remove stun off yourself and then apply Aphotic Shield on a stunned ally to free him as well.
Constantly look at your teammates to heal or hard dispel them.
Silences and heal reductions are a big problems for Abaddon. Avoid being hit by those or itemize against them.
With Aghanim's Scepter, you will need to activate your Ultimate manually, while most of the damage is being inflicted on your teammates.
Counter Strategy
Abaddon's Aphothic Shield applies strong dispel. Use disabling and damage-over-time dispellable spells only after the shield was used.
If you are in the fog, exploding Aphotic Shield won't damage you.
Abaddon's Ulti Burrowed Time applies strong dispel and heals Abaddon for all damage taken. Don't hit him.
Break effects make Burrowed Time not start automatically. But Abaddon can still activate it manually.
Lore
The Font of Avernus is the source of a family's strength, a crack in primal stones from which vapors of prophetic power have issued for generations. Each newborn of the cavernous House Avernus is bathed in the black mist, and by this baptism they are given an innate connection to the mystic energies of the land. They grow up believing themselves fierce protectors of their lineal traditions, the customs of the realm--but what they really are protecting is the Font itself. And the motives of the mist are unclear. When the infant Abaddon was bathed in the Font, they say something went awry. In the child's eyes there flared a light of comprehension that startled all present and set the sacerdotes to whispering. He was raised with every expectation of following the path all scions of Avernus took--to train in war, that in times of need he might lead the family's army in defense of the ancestral lands. But Abaddon was always one apart. Where others trained with weapons, he bent himself to meditation in the presence of the mist. He drank deep from the vapors that welled from the Font, learning to blend his spirit with the potency that flowed from far beneath the House; he became a creature of the black mist. There was bitterness within the House Avernus--elders and young alike accusing him of neglecting his responsibilities. But all such accusations stopped when Abaddon rode into battle, and they saw how the powers of the mist had given him mastery over life and death beyond those of any lord the House had ever known.
