Try to improve counter picking skills
Counterpicking is one of the most overrated tactics in Dota 2.
Many "Counterpicks" Aren't Counterpicks
- Myth: They have Riki, therefore I should pick Bounty Hunter or Slardar so we have vision of him.
- Reality: A smart player isn't going to auto attack some creeps, then initiate on you so you have time to (a) see him, (b) cast your true sight ult. Reactionary/Premeditated ults like Amplify Damage and Track won't prevent a Riki from initiating onto you, using cloud to silence, and ripping you apart. Only good team play, map awareness, and use of Sentry Wards/Gem will help.
