Um definitely NOT Spectre, awful laner. Pudge also isn't great except for the possibility of kills.

Strong 1v1 - Kunkka, Viper, Outworld Devourer, Huskar etc.

Dual lanes - lots of options, see other threads on the subject. Bane/ Mirana, ET/KOTL, Weaver/Aba, SD/Leshrac, BM/Dazzle, etc

Trilanes - properly configured trilanes (i.e. lots of stuns, slows, nukes and escape blockers) are almost unplayable against. You're pretty much limited to passive "spoilers" like ES and Lich to go against them.

E.g. Mirana, Rubick and Ancient Apparition
Chaos Knight, Disruptor and Ancient Apparition etc

Solos - depends on the trilane really. Strongest situationally, probably Bristleback, ET, Undying etc.
A full list of my guides is here

Kunkka, Huskar, Jakiro, and Viper. Along with anyone who can orbwalk(viper,husk,drow,clinkz,jaikro every few seconds), it gives you a big harass advantage and keeps the lane equilibrium a little more steady.
I got to Notable, Thanks!

Well you have the standard lane dominators: razor, OD, viper, huskar. Probably in that order. But then you have exeptions like QoP who does well against razor, but gets crushed by viper.
I personally wouldnt call kunkka a lane dominator though.

Dual and trilanes are a bit too hard to really answer well. I could list all the cookie cutter lanes with mirana, AA exetera but i dont feel like doing so. :P

You have duallanes that are good against weak trilanes but once ita against a decent one it gets crushed. Same with offlaners, some are good against weaker lanes, but if they cant disrupt their farm then their purpose has ended and are useless for the rest of the game.

Not to mention all of the individual matchups and exeptions that those provide.
