How to Counter Alchemist

The Alchemist has always been a very dangerous hero, even taking into account the fact that in the last patch, he was weakened, he still remains strong. Therefore, one must always understand how to counter the alchemist and which counter peak of the alchemist should be chosen in a particular situation. But the hero also has its drawbacks, like a low increase in dexterity, which means that his armor has a small indicator. His second ability is dangerous for the hero himself. And of course, the hero is absolutely nothing until he receives the ultimate skill.

As you can see, the hero has severe flaws, but why is he considered dangerous? The hero is able to mine gold very quickly. Therefore, it is essential to kill him all the time. It will not be difficult until his sixth level. And of course, finish the game either very quickly or hold the defenses until your team buys the necessary items at the end.

It is also essential to understand how to counter Alchemist in the forest. It is vital to see the enemy’s forest in order to come there and kill the Alchemist every time he enters there. You can also put wards, so that forest units do not appear, this complicates the mining of gold for the Alchemist, and you make them spend support money on dewarding.

Mid Lane Counters

Viper

A perfect counter to Alchemist. This character’s Nethertoxin disables the passive abilities of enemy heroes. In turn, the Alchemist will not receive any additional gold, which will force him to change the line, or go to the forest, where it will be easier to kill at the expense of support. Also, since the hero is quite aggressive from the first minutes of the game, the Alchemist will be forced to always stand with a low amount of health. In the future will lead to the easy killing of the Alchemist.

Rubick

Fade Bolt will reduce the Alchemist’s attack by so much that it will be unbearably challenging to finish off creeps. Which again will make Alchemist change the line or go into the forest. And this will significantly slow him down.

Skywrath Mage

He has crazy magic damage. Easily capable of killing and chasing the Alchemist. Even after gaining the ultimate ability, the Alchemist may not survive after Dragonus’ attack. It counters it well at all stages of the game, forcing Black King Bar to buy.

Alchemist counters

Slark

An excellent choice for counter Alchemist. Not only is he able to very well crush the Alchemist on the line, but he also manages to interfere with him in the forest, due to his mobility. Slark steals Alchemist’s dexterity with great pleasure since the latter has excellent vitality. Easily evades the control of the Alchemist and can bring down a teleport to him. An excellent choice for the counter peak both at the beginning of the game and at the end.

Ursa

Always been one of the most reliable counter pikes of any melee hero. Fury Swipes just don’t let anyone survive. The Alchemist’s advantage does not work, as the longer, the battle lasts, the more damage he will receive. Also, the ultimate ability of Enrage will make the hero more strong.

Terrorblade

Since the Alchemist has stable damage, this can play a trick on him in the form of the ultimate ability of this hero. Changing your health stock will give you a chance to eliminate the Alchemist quickly. The only thing to be wary of is disabling during the exchange.

Huskar

Very strong from the first minutes of the game. Huskar not particularly in need of gold, he in need of killing the enemy. One of the best heroes for domination in the early stages. He will not allow the Alchemist to mine gold. He will forever go away from the line. A counter pick on the line, as well as in the mid is good.
