After the dark mages raided the university, scholar Cornelius Witt was believed to be dead. In fact, he was held captive by the enemy for about two years. The mages' spell tortures not only failed to break him down, but also helped him discover a new ability, the suppression of magic. He used it to escape and joined the ranks of Guardians.

How to counter Cornelius in Hero Wars Alliance?
Sebastian
Sebastian's shield will block Cornelius' Memory Loss skill, which will try to curse a random enemy at the beginning of the battle.
Jorgen
Jorgen can block Cornelius' ability to gain energy and stop him from using his monolith.
Jhu
Jhu targets the back line where Cornelius is positioned. This makes Cornelius an easy target to die early in the game.
K'arkh
Fafnir
Fafnir can be used to make sure K'arkh stays alive. Be sure that K'arkh is the only hero with agility stat so Fafnir's runic shield will target K'arkh.
K'arkh also gains additional energy with its shield on each attack, so he will reload energy faster.
Both heroes are not Cornelius' targets because their main stat is not intelligence.
