New items are keep coming out on the recent DotA versions. But do you know that almost every item has its counters? Check this out!
vs 
Black King Bar and Linken is the obvious counter, but you should know that you can Purge the heroes to remove Hex or Cyclone.
vs
Black King Bar is the ultimate counter for any spell!
vs 
BKB prevent you from return damage while Satanic 100% lifesteal will help you nulled the return damage if you are using physical attack.
vs
Not many people know that we can remove the Ghost Form using Purge. Hex is pretty obvious.
vs -disablehelp
Tired with your team mate who keep using Force Staff on your hero? -disablehelp is your ultimate counter ;)
vs 
Just kidding, you just have to quickly gank the holder and destroy (or steal) it when dropped. Remember the Gem cooldown is quite long.
vs 
Sentry War anyone?
vs 
Dust is the cheapest solution if you wanna gank heroes that have Lothar while Sentry is better used when you are going into a team war.
vs
Ghost Form is the ultimate counter for any physical attack (and their effect)!
vs
True Strike will negate any evasion with ease.
vs 
Both item is negating each other. While Assault Cuirass has attack speed increase aura, Shiva have the attack speed decrease aura. Shiva armor boost will also help you againts the minus armor aura from Cuirass.
vs 
Battlefury will remove illusions with ease if you are using melee hero. Mjollnir's Static Charge and Shiva's Arctic Blast also work well for illusions.
vs 
Radiance can screw up Blink Dagger user. If you have charge you can cast Urn to your enemies to prevent them using Blink Dagger.
vs 
Chop all the trees before your enemy eat it! I'm serious here!
vs
Basically any disable will do well here. Please note that Force Staff does not cancel Town Portal.
vs 
They cancel each other. The left reduce magic damage while the right enhanced it. Veil of Discord is still rarely used though.
vs 
Turn the Dominated creeps into gold with ease.
vs
Urn is the cheapest item which can counter Linken. Use it before your main spell for maximum damage.
vs
Actually there's no actual counter for BKB, that's why IceFrog nerf the BKB duration. But if the enemy use BKB you can cast cyclone to yourself and watch your enemy wasting 2.5 seconds waiting for you. Or cast Force Staff to get some distance with the BKB user.
vs 
You can avoid the enemies Observer Ward using Smoke of Deceit. However, if the enemies for some reason also using Sentry Ward alongside the Obs, Smoke won't work. But it rarely happen because of the cost for both Ward.
vs
Cast Purge on the Necro Warrior/Archer for instant Gold :)
