Bad against...

Bristleback   Hero   Strategy   Counters   Equipment   Gear   Responses   Sounds   Lore   Old Abilities   Changelogs     Bristleback 22 + 2.2 17 + 1.8 14 + 2.8 Level Base dota2
  • Ursa`s fast attack speed and mass quick damage will trigger Bristlebacks Bristleback causing lots of damage to Ursa.
  • Bristleback`s Bristleback can also make Ursa`s massive instant damage be reduced heavily if you don`t attack Bristle`s front.
  • While Viscous Nasal Goo is removable with Enrage, it is a spammable ability and thus Bristleback can simply throw more Goos while Ursa`s ultimate is popped, kiting him with ease.

  • Ursa generally relies on the blink into Earthshock combo to slow people down to burst them, but Windranger can just use her Windrun and escape the whole Earthshock duration.

Others

Good against...

Lina
  • Lina is very easy to kill hero with major cast-time problems on her Light-Strike Array. She cannot combo with Eul`s Scepter if Ursa has activated a BKB.
Timbersaw
  • Timbersaw`s Reactive Armor is based on tanking more hits, Ursa`s fury swipe will stack the more he hits and will be the doom of Timbersaw
Meepo
  • He can payback any clone of Meepo with Enrage and Fury Swipes
Huskar
  • Huskar`s Burning Spears do almost no damage when Ursa is enraged, making it easy to kill him
Medusa

Works well with...

Io
  • Io and Ursa can teleport through the map and Ursa can easily kill enemies with health and mana gained from Io
Disruptor
  • Disruptor can trap enemies, making it easy for Ursa to destroy them.
Dazzle
  • Dazzle can reduce enemy armor and keep Ursa alive a bit longer with Shallow Grave. Can also heal.
Wraith King
  • Ursa has no disable, meaning that a stun from Wraith King should give Ursa enough time to kill an enemy and chain it using Earthshock.
  • Vampiric Aura helps Ursa does Roshan early without Lifesteal item.
Lone Druid
  • Lone Druid`s bear ensnares enemy units, making them unable to escape from Ursa
Sven
  • Ursa has no disable, meaning that a stun from Sven should give Ursa enough time to kill an enemy and chain it using Earthshock.
  • Ursa struggles against illusions while Sven can easily clear out illusions with his Great Cleave which counters Ursa`s counter such as Phantom Lancer
  • Sven`s Warcry increases Ursa`s mobility and armor allowing him to chase enemy heroes easily and have better chance of survivability against physical damage
