I'd hardly consider Huskar a counter to Centaur. Yes, he can eat half his HP, but stuns and nukes are Huskar's counters. Centaur has a strong nuke and two stuns.

And Huskar has a Black King Bar to help him.

They might be good, everything is situational, like, if Centaur Warrunner has a Black King Bar, almost all casters are useless.

That, or a Blade Mail. Most probably he'll have a Blade Mail.

Not really broken, no, but he has a lot of early-mid game dominance.

I'd honestly say that to deal with centaur, you give him the axe treatment. Centaur reminds me of a tanky carry, weak in the early game and strong late game. Id deal with him by ganking him early, making sure his early game is horrendous. Since his nuke hurts him as well, when he fights he runs the risk of dying because of his nuke. If imagine Lifestealer would also
Work, as well as Undying to reduce his Str, same with Slark.
Sad there is no Nyx Picture :(

I agree with all of this except for having Slark fight him. Too squishy but LS and Undying are both good counters, Naix being his biggest natural counter and Undying should be able to slow with tombstone, spam decay which makes him squishier, and amp damage with ult. It also helps that Undying has amazing early game potential.
