How do you stop Morphling ?

[GH]

I'm having trouble playing against this. He can do anything he wants because he is sure to never die, so trying shutting down his early is unlikely to go well, especially when paired with Heroes like Treant, Dazzle, etc.

Of course, How do you stop Morphling else than banning it.

Some heroes cannot be stopped so easily by you alone. You need good teamwork, or you need your teammates to try to counter him as well. Not to mention that most of the times morphs are pub stompers who boost and their actual rank is 3-5 medals above the rank they play lol. And this is the magic of Dota 2, and one of the many reasons it is a trashy and toxic game.

Oh btw same (and even worse) applies for Naga, Tinker, Meepo stompers. This game is real fun eh.

it takes an entire team to take down a good morph

It applies however only to good morphs, but he can be taken down. Before he builds a manta (or Linken to some extent), orchid destroys him, mostly. Most morphs go around with full agility morphed out, so he can be nuked out after the silence.

Even a shadow blade Drow might work.

An easy way to counter morph late game is with a Kunkka (splash) because they mostly got full agi and try to shotgun enemies with ethereal. But again, if he is booster no you can't actually do anything.

Lock him down while he's shifted into agi.

stuns...

aoe stuns to be more specific....



and if you find a good char like that.. ( cough slardar) understand that morph will buy a linkens for the stats between 2-15k mmr (cough slardaar) so pick a hero that has a low cd ' POP' ( cough slardaar) to counter the linkes and the auto attacks.,

AA,URSA, stuns,silence and so on... there is so many ways to deal with morph ... aghanims on AA against ANY MORPH PLAYER is gg. dunno man , try playing hero that is ur best and figure out item build that counters morph... I played other game ursa against Morph and we beat him, tbh I built into hex just to counter him even thoe we had AA in our team..

And AA ult counters hard morp but when morp replicate another hero its useless cause his HP CHANGE DUE TO MORPH . silence alot of stuns is the counter LION

Watch vici gaming vs virtus pro game5 grand final last weekend dreamleague .. you can see best morph player “no one”got stomped

[alone]

Sky stops them all except am :D

[Funnerific]

Among carries, PL is the classic counter. Among supports, instant disablers like Lion, Shadow Shaman or Silencer work best. AA as some have mentioned, but it is a pretty weak hero in general unless you main him maybe. Attribute shift is also countered by spirit vessel which should be bought by your pos 4 or 3.

Up untill now, the only win I had against Morphling I had a Lion on my team. He could just R Morph, bypassing the Strength Shifting and killing him instantly.

But usually they stomp too hard. The last match it took 50 min untill my ally Sniper could get fed enough to kill Morph, but by that time, 4 barracks were gone.

Commonly, the enemies Morphlings are 15/0 by the 20 minutes mark. When all my allies are on par to him, it is already too late.

I know what the concept of Snowball is, but I find it truly unacceptable for Morphling case, because he LITERALLY does anything he wants. Go alone to get the bounty, against 2 or 3 heroes, can keep farming even being harassed (also even with that near melee range), because he is all sure that he will not die, and he is right.
