Asked by a WingHUD player
what counters invoker mid ?
WingHUD
Best mid counters to Invoker:
- Puck — strongest listed counter. Constantly punishes Invoker’s slow spell setup, dodges combos with Phase Shift, and controls teamfights with Coil.
- Void Spirit — great gap-close and burst. Invoker struggles to kite him once he gets levels and disables.
- Kez — high mobility and strong all-in potential; can overwhelm Invoker before he gets defensive items.
Also playable:
- Templar Assassin — especially good if you can pressure early and punish Invoker’s weak physical resistance.
- Lina or Storm Spirit can work, but they aren’t as strong in the provided matchup data.
Laning tip: don’t let Invoker freely farm with Forge Spirit/Alacrity. Contest ranged creeps, force out Cold Snap, and punish him when Tornado is on cooldown. Against Quas-Wex Invoker, avoid wasting your escape before Tornado/EMP.
For your pool, Puck or Void Spirit would be the cleanest answers—better than forcing OD into the matchup.
