Ogre Magi counter and synergy picks

Ogre's Bloodlust provides Alch with an amazing steroid troughout the entirety of the game. In the early game it allows him to farm faster and more consistently get his items to spiral out of control. Alch having the lowest BaT in the game receives extra attack speed from BL.

Ogre Magi buffs Juggernaut with Bloodlust, enhancing his attack speed for Omnislash and right-clicks. His stuns help Juggernaut secure kills in early ganks. Ignite zones opponents during healing ward plays. Together they dominate lane and scale well into midgame.

Drow Ranger loves Bloodlust for faster attacks and repositioning. Ogre Magi protects her with chain stuns, keeping threats away. Ignite and Fireblast help slow enemies chasing her. Their combination allows for strong ranged poke and burst execution.

Luna gains massive benefits from Bloodlust to increase her farming and attack speed. Ogre Magi’s crowd control keeps enemies locked during Eclipse. He helps Luna reach her timing safely by absorbing early pressure. Ignite enhances Luna’s Area of effect presence in fights.

Phantom Assassin becomes more lethal with increased attack speed from Bloodlust. Ogre Magi softens targets with Fireblast before Phantom Assassin jumps. Ignite applies slow and Area of effect damage to lock targets down. The pairing snowballs rapidly if they secure a good lane.

Terrorblade farms faster and becomes more effective with Bloodlust-enhanced illusions. Ogre Magi peels for Terrorblade while he positions for Sunder. Their synergy scales well in teamfights where Terrorblade stands his ground. Fireblast enables Terrorblade to get crucial kills early.

Ursa relies on getting fast stacks of Fury Swipes, but Ogre Magi’s tankiness delays his kill window. Fireblast and Ignite slow Ursa’s aggressive movement in fights. Ogre Magi can buy time with stuns until help arrives. Ursa’s low health pool makes him vulnerable to burst spells.

Ogre Magi has high health and natural regeneration, making it hard for Nyx Assassin to burst him. His multicast disables can lock down Nyx Assassin even when he is invisible.

Slardar is a melee hero who suffers against disables and slows. Ogre Magi can lock him down with Fireblast and kite him with Ignite. Ogre Magi's tankiness delays Slardar’s ability to snowball early kills. Bloodlust also helps allies reposition against Slardar’s sprint initiation.

Ogre Magi does not rely on channeling abilities and can interrupt Pugna with his instant stuns. He can disable Pugna before he starts Life Drain or Decrepify burst. Pugna’s low durability makes him easy for Ogre Magi to nuke. Ogre Magi can also outlast Nether Ward damage due to high health.

Ogre Magi can interrupt Dazzle before he casts Shallow Grave. His high magic damage and disables make Dazzle an easy target. Dazzle cannot keep up in teamfights where Ogre Magi has Bloodlusted allies. Ignite’s Area of effect pressure keeps Dazzle from positioning well.

Clinkz is vulnerable to chain stuns, which Ogre Magi delivers through multicast Fireblast. His low health pool is easily deleted by Ignite and Fireblast combo. Ogre Magi can keep allies safe with Bloodlust against Clinkz’s ambush. Clinkz struggles to trade with Ogre Magi in vision range.

Phantom Lancer overwhelms Ogre Magi with illusions that Ignite cannot clear quickly. Ogre Magi lacks strong Area of effect damage and becomes mana-drained in long fights. Phantom Lancer dodges stuns and resets with Doppelganger. Ogre Magi’s single-target spells are inefficient against illusion heroes.
