          Bounty's pretty decent to setup ganks on Doom.

                  Pl, CK, TB. Any illusion hero really. I'd also say that since everyone is taking him offlane these days an aggressive duo lane should stop him from snowballing early on, which is the only way he really gets out of hand. His team fight presence is pretty weak so its generally not too tough to focus him mid game onwards. Also pick heroes that can deal with his ult before he farms up aghs.

                          Pick him yourself or hope someone on your team picks him first.

                              p/s: If you still go Orchid on Clinkz then don't bother replying

                                Sniper crushes him and doesn't give a shit about dooms ult

                                  Yeah, sniper's really good against Doom, he has a ton of HP and it's a good thing Doom never goes blink + chase build nowadays.

                                  Oh wait...

                                        Wraith King is the only hard counter to Doom.

                                        Riguma Borusu

                                          Abaddon is okay as a counter to doom too, except he's mostly useless other than that.

                                          Dominus

                                            @ Dire Wolf: Sniper sucks against Doom from my experience. Hes so slow, so if Doom blinks in on him he cant get away. Even building SB is good cause right clicking sniper out of invis will crit almost half of his poor HP pool and dooming him after that is a sure kill. If Doom has Aghs and lvl 3 Ult hes gonna do something like 1200 pure damage, most likely more because Sniper wont be able to break the 900 radius while Doomed. Nah man, Sniper gives plenty of fucks about being Doomed, even though he isnt always the best target.

                                                wk keks at doom hard, especially if you can get blademail off before he dooms u

                                                plz do

                                                  ok, im collecting some ideas here:
                                                  most mentioned is wk, slardar, ck, alchi. also as support omniknight and aa.
                                                  idk sniper and clinkz seem really bad. Not sure about illusion heros though too much, once doom finds the real hero its pretty fast over i guess..?
                                                  would appreciate some more support hero ideas vs doom..?

                                                      in terms of laning you need supports with stuns/strong kill potential if not offlane dooms just going to wrekt the lane

                                                          I guess it's the 50% damage reduction for your ally.

                                                                  if sniper has good positioning hes a good counter to doom obviously, you get lifestea land you dont rely on spells or items to damage the enemy, if your team can protect you while you're doomed you can still do big dps in fights. As other mentioned Abbadon seems pretty good against doom, ive played doom like twice lately and there has always been an abadon on the otehr team, i won 1 and i lost the other one but the one I lost it was totally becaus eof the abbadon.. he was saving everyone's asses all the time.

                                                                  Dikson

                                                                          Saying sniper is bad vs doom is saying sniper is bad vs any hero with a blink essentially. Doom doesn't have anything that counters sniper more than anyone else, wk with a blink or sven with a blink is probably worse. Sniper can man fight doom with s&y and some lifesteal. Plus good positioning, doom won't get close anyway.
