How to counter Phobos in Hero Wars Mobile?

Phobos target heroes with the highest magic attack. If you want to counter him, you can just switch to a physical attack team where your main damage dealer has a low magic attack.
Corvus
Corvus

Corvus's altar will reflect Phobo's damage, killing him slowly each time he makes an attack.

Satori
Satori

Satori will apply Fox Fire marks each time Phobos gains extra energy with his "Bonds of Darkness" skill. Once activated, Satori's marks can destroy Phobos.

K'arkh
K'arkh
K'arkh targets three enemies with the lowest health in the enemy team. Considering Phobos's low health, the chance of being hit is very high, which makes it vulnerable to K'arkh.
