- & ~ the sheer amount of kill potential of infinite mana dk and illuminate is insane
-Tri-Lane= Ancient Apparation, and ~ Net AA's abilities in general and

I'll just add to that by a stupid idea of 2 carries and one support;
, and just for the ultimate slow :P

Your new diet for heroes; You will need 4 wards (cuz wards taste better), 1 set of tangoes, 1 mango, 1 cheese.
With this you can make a nice Tango Mango Cheese platter. You can wash this all down with a nice bottle of water, Can be flavoured with red, green, yellow, blue, purple AND GOLD!
Caution: Taking roshan 3 times is required.

These are all nice, but I believe the OP also asked how would you counter these combos.
I for one would be interested in hearing the proposed to counters.

Fair question - how do you stop some of these combos? Quite often the answers involve or , but there are some specific ones:

/ - tanky heroes, especially ones with magic resistance can generally survive this combo. Either that, or stun/silence Lesh before he unleashes .

/ - you can still cast while under CM's "stun", can use if he's quick, or heroes with a good escape like , or can avoid most of the damage.

/ - trickier once they're both 6, can free himself with a well timed debuff for example, or heroes like and can free their partner with a well timed buff.

/ - avoid getting Shackled by slow ole SS, purge/buffs as listed above, silence/stun the SS, or drop a between and the target.

/ - another tricky one, it's very hard to stop the without a stun/silence. Tanky heroes may well survive it, or you can block the hook with minions.

/ - you can dodge both of their projectiles with the right skills, e.g. , or .

Ok, I'm going to try to create a counter for the "popular" (more seen) & combo.

SO I'll start off with heroes that you could solo lane with but you will get 0 farm and basically loose the lane. However you may not die as easily;
; if you time right you can avoid and Wisp's balls.
; I'd highly say don't do this as this is all theory, not proven. can get you out. However if you get caught with not enough mana, you're dead.
; probably the safest, get some levels, buy some wards and then use to get last hits out of danger.
; just completely push the lane and hope that get's you gold and stay within range for exp.
; you'll have to max and keep active for last hits otherwise you're screwed.
; you can get last hits with harass with it but you will have to stay back. If you max out first you might be in for a chance stopping the damage but you will still get stunned.

Dual lanes;
+ carry hero; you can save the carry with and heal him as well.
+ carry hero; you can heal + to keep them save from nukes.
+ ; basically you can keep both silenced and nuke them back. This can work for any dual lane where you can get silences that last for around 4 seconds.
Outworld Devourer + ; keep one hero or both at once locked away so that they can get 0 kills and suffer.
