Hero to counter Storm Spirit
Are there any carry heroes that can stand up to him 1v1 early-mid game without team support? I ask because I often get teamed with a group that are very rigid, they stay in their lanes, no roaming support, no dust ganks. My usual carry choices are sniper, SF and BS.

I can hold my own until level 6, but after that I get my ass handed to me, could be due to scrubbery, but I feel like these heroes are kinda helpess against him when he has his ulti 1v1.

Anti Mage. Otherwise, have a way to silence him.

I played against a lot of storms and my best heroes were TA and nyx, TA has a lot of dmg early on and a shield to block constant attacks and her 2nd spell can bait the storm to use static remenant on you.

Nyx is self explanitory, stun, mana burn, and 3rd spell to keep him in one place. get 6th spell and the storm might as well stay in base.

Silencer - profit
Suprised honestly that no one metioned Pugna. He's got good push, great way to stop the autos of SS, and his Nether Ward makes him hurt himself to attack you!

void, anti, legion, doom, silencer.

Lion it's a nice choice to counter Storm.

Stun + hex + mana drain + Ult

Doom with agh is the ultimate to stop almost all enemy heroes. If storm comes close to you then you just ulti and storm is silenced until he dies.

If the issue is that no one helps you in lane against the storm then you should go someone like QoP, TA or OD. They can hold their own against Storm in lane and he will struggle to solo kill them. TA and OD are also not bad against storm later in the game. If anyone can stun Storm for a second, a TA with blink and deso can hurt him enough to take him out of the fight pretty quickly.

If you want to gank storm with someone else going mid I'd say go bounty hunter. Before he gets six you should be able to kill him with the mid almost any time you go there. Mirana is also good if you're ok at landing arrows.

best supports vs Storm are Winter wyvern, Lion and Shadow Shaman
Best carrys: void, antimage
offlaner: clockwerk ( he can hookshot him and burn his mana)
Best mids: QOP usually has the upperhand EARLY game vs him, mids late game Lina , She can use euls on him and instant stun him before he ults or force a bkb
