Strategy
If laning against {chen}, {enchantress} or {crystal-maiden}, consider not summoning Boars as they deal with summons easily.
Make sure not to feed boars to opponents. Deny them or move them away when they're low on hp.
Keep the hawk out to always have a form of lockdown on enemy heroes close to you.
Utilize Beasmaster's high base damage and additional damage from boars to deny creeps and secure last hits.
Make use of catapult waves to pressure the tower along with your summons.
You can farm aggressively since you have hawk's root to protect you and summons to farm those camps safely.
Push out side lanes with summons, especially if you have an ancient creep with {helm-of-the-overlord}. Black Dragon helps the most with that.
Take first 
Roshan between 15 and 20 minute mark.
Counter Strategy
Beastmaster's boars give a lot of gold and experience. Look to kill them.
Be aware of Beastmaster's level 6 and {helm-of-the-dominator} powerspike if he is not going for {aghanims-scepter}.
Defend towers against Beastmaster. Otherwise he will invade your jungle after taking towers.
Gank Beastmaster with {smoke-of-deceit} as you get more gold if you kill his summons too.
Consider buying a {crimson-guard} and armor items against Beastmaster.
{lotus-orb} and {linkens-sphere} are good at countering Beastmaster's Primal Roar.
Avoid walking up to Beastmaster on your own as you might get rooted by hawks and then roared to your death.
