General DiscussionHow to counter Visage mid?

^
considering you dont have a dream team so opt-out ganking
how you manage solo vs a visage on midlane?
he lvl ups fast as hes solo, hes tanky u cant harass much,
after 6lvl he conjures familiars and rapes you with slow+imba dmg+stuns from familiars.

in my case i was sniper and tried to stay far and farm and harass with sharpnel but after 6 he totally destroyed me(however he had near 0 versatility and around 700 avg gpm/xpm which means he was a booster or visage spammer)

His account is being boosted lol he went from barely having a 50% ranked winrate to literally winning 27 out of 29 games.

true and sad. i just checked his account,

the booster is necro spammer which in my game necro was banned.

anyway the hero itself is cancer, any suggestion to counter?
i can counter necro with magic dmg but no idea how to deal with visage

https://dota2.gamepedia. Dota 2 visage discussion web com/Visage/Counters Why do you ask something that can be searched on internet?

literally any retard can edit those and that has nothing to do with laning anyway.

Look dude you just have to play better. I get he’s a smurf so maybe his last hitting was way above yours, but you bought phase at min 9, then aquila at 15. That means you missed like every cs in lane. This is me vs a viper who kicked my ass in lane https://www. dotabuff. com/matches/3450900783/builds and still 2:34 aquila, 7:34 treads.

Visage barely outranges sniper level 1, and by 3 at most you should have a point in take aim and out range him by 50. You have comperable level 1 dmg and he has negative starting armor and won’t get cloak til later so you should win any harrassment battles early. Basically he shouldn’t be able to win lane before 6. At 6 yes he can kill you outright but you should have a lot more items and then he can’t kill you as easily. If you back under tower when he sends familars I don’t think visage can dive you.

Veno is an extremely hard counter to visage, viper right behind that. Take either of those heroes mid vs visage and you’ll shit on them.

@direwolf youre right i sucked this game and its not my average sniper (i got around 70-% wr), he got some early kills by gankings which as i remember riki and wd ganked few times and gave him advantage, however i guess with those items in proper time he still shits on sniper after 6.
anyway, as sniper i literally win vs every laning even pa before 6 cuz sharpnel is so strong but i couldnt harass this pesky visage and every time i use sharpnel he came closer in my face and even uses soul assumption which hurts a lot. (and yes after 6 he dived me under tower and no safe spot for me with that slow and heavy dmg)

@A BSJ i see how viper can survive(hes a survivor!) , but veno with his low hp and short atk range and slow ms?!

@I play for fun
through the link you shared , i can approve leshrac could be a good mid vs him. but others where either not mid laner or situational.

@qrl from spamming visage veno is the worst to play against. He q’s you and your familiars and you can’t do shit. Also when the familiars come out of stone form and veno q’s them they can’t run away, making it an easy 200 gold. Also veno burns through visages passive I believe
