How to counter Aidan

Morrigan blocks Aidan's ability to resurrect Kayla. In addition, Morrigan receives soul essence every time Aidan tries to do a resurrection.

More details about Aidan

How to counter Amira?

Cornelius - targets high-intelligence heroes just like Amira. He can eliminate her with one hit only.

Sebastian - he can add pure damage to heroes with critical hit stat. Even if Amira is blocking the critical hits, the pure damage can quickly kill her. Keira or Dare Devil are good combos for maximum damage output.

Lilith - her maximum health stat is higher than the one targeted, so Amira can only deplete 5% instead of 50% of her maximum energy.

Xe'Sha - Amira blocks magical damage for her allies lower than 45.299, but Xe'Sha has a higher stat. She bypasses this limitation.

Phobos - his damage is blocked by Amira, but he can still use his energy-stealing skills to prevent Amira from activating her ultimate or slow her down significantly.

Way of Eternity - Corvus, Morrigan, and Faceless - their magic defense perfectly counter Amira's damage.

How to counter Artemis?

Ziri can make the enemy team attack her first and reflect all of the physical damage performed.

Helios can absorb any physical damage with his protecting spheres. He can also deal damage every time a team mate gets a critical hit damage.

Jorgen can stop the team from gaining energy and is super helpful with Cleaver, which can bring Fafnir to the front so Jorgen can also target him.

Phobos hits the enemy with the highest magic attack and transfers all gained energy. This can be a great blocker to Artemis.

Arachne targets the lowest-health enemy, which is usually Artemis in her meta teams.

Isaac - he can absorb all magical damage which makes Lilith useless.

Jhu - he usually attacks the backline where Lilith is positioned.

More details about Mushy and Shroom

How to counter Orion?

Satori is a hard counter to Orion due to Orion's "Full Charge" skill which gives him the ability to receive additional energy with each attack.

How to counter Peppy?

Jhu can effectively counter Peppy because he targets back-line heroes where Peppy usually is located.

How to counter Phobos?

Corvus - his altar will target Phobos when he deals damage to allies.

How to counter Satori?

Celeste - removes Satori's Fox Fire marks with her purifying spheres.

Cornelius - he can kill a high-intelligence hero with just one hit. His damage is proportional to the intelligence levels of a hero, and Satori has much of it.

Phobos - his ability to steal and burn energy makes it a good counter to Satori, especially if Satori is the hero with the highest magic attack.

Jorgen - even if he's hard-countered by Satori, he can be a stopper for Satori's activation of fire fox marks. If you use it in your team, make sure you have heroes that can prevent Satori from his ultimate.

Iris is great with buffs and debuffs. She decreases Satori's magical damage when he applies his marks.

Isaac has great shields that can absorb all kinds of damage. He also suits well with progress heroes which can eliminate Satori before he actives his marks.

Nebula can clear Satori's fire marks, but there is a catch - she needs to stay alive long enough.

More details about Satori

How to counter Tristan?

Satori can easily destroy heroes that gain energy over time which is the case with Tristan.

More details about Tristan

How to counter Xe'Sha?

Cornelius - targets high-intelligence heroes just like Xe'Sha. There are a few heroes with higher intelligence stat, like Jet and Alvanor, so she's a perfect target for Cornelius.

Phobos can stun Xe'Sha and steal her energy.

Fafnir activates a shield that can absorb all of Xe'Sha's damage.

Amira can activate a shield that absorbs all of Xe'Sha's damage.

Morrigan can summon skulls with lower armor and become the new target of Xe'Sha while spanning the attention away from the other heroes.

Rufus is protected by magic damage and can bypass all Xe'Sha attacks.

Yasmine - targets and paralyzes the enemy with the lowest armor. And Xe'Sha is one of the heroes with the lowest armor. Be careful adding Yasmine if Faceless is in Xe'Sha's team because he has lower armor and stun ability, which might prevent Yasmine's ultimate activation.

Jorgen can steal energy from the enemy team heroes, delay their ultimates, and make sure Xe'Sha activates her ultimate first.

More details about Xe'Sha

How to counter Yasmine?

Helios does damage based on the critical hits he gets from Yasmine and also protects nearby heroes with his damage-absorbing spheres. You can combine him with Faceless or Orion so he can benefit from the magic penetration buff.

Corvus' altar deals damage each time an allied gets hit. Every time Yasmine attacks, she will be hit by the altar.

Faceless can stun and return Yasmine to her initial position.

Celeste - removes Yasmine's poison with her purifying spheres.
