Depends on the illusion hero.

For heroes with a lot of illusions like Phantom Lancer and carry Naga Siren it's definitely Medusa. Earthshaker gets a secondary mention too - though any hero with mass AOE damage is fine because of how squishy the illusions are.

For heroes with few but powerful illusions like Morphling and Chaos Knight it would be Outworld Devourer because of how powerful against illusions Arcane Orb is.

Battle Fury on some melee heroes is also good.

Or even Maelstrom

AoE ultimates with low cooldown (Ghost Ship, Call Down...), Heroes with cleave damage ( Sven, Magnus, Luna, Gyrocopter and any Hero with a Battle Fury), Legion Commander (because of her first ability), Outworld Devourer (because of his orb) and the two "typical" counters to them ( Earthshaker and Medusa because of their ultimates).
Best picture ever.

Maelstrom becomes a sub-standard counter later into the game as 120 damage..just falls off
