How to counter Primal Beast

In lane

  • • Primal Beast has a hard time laning against Ursa due to Fury Swipes harass. • Ursa can buy Aghanim's Scepter to Enrage when Pulverized.
  • • Primal Beast can never Onslaught away to safety in lane due to Telekinesis.
  • • Primal Beast is a very high HP hero and Lifestealer does excellent at harassing him in lane with Feast. • This matchup becomes very even later on because Pulverize pierces the debuff immunity of Rage.

In game

  • • Earth Spike is a long range disable that can ruin his Onslaught or initiation. • Hex is an instant disable that can ruin his Onslaught or initiation. • Primal Beast has very low starting mana which means Mana Drain can steal a significant amount.

Items

  • Linken's Sphere
    • Later on, Primal Beast's biggest strength becomes Pulverize as it pierces debuff immunity. This can be a good item as he has no organic ways to proc it.
