The Silence is a great counter to the high mobility of Queen Of Pain. Death Prophets Aghanim's Shard upgrade will also fear and prevent her from moving.

Silence will be a nuisance for Timber as he relies on using his spells during teamfights. Your Shard will also provide crowd control and you buy Shivas Guard all of the time which reduces his healing and regeneration.

Silence will be a nuisance for Morphling as he relies on using his spells during teamfights. Your Shard will also provide crowd control and you buy Shivas Guard all of the time which reduces his healing and regeneration.
