Lian - Hero Wars Alliance

Lian hero guide, glyphs, artifacts, skins, best teams, and best counters in Hero Wars Alliance.
Lian is a control hero part of the Way of Mystery faction in Hero Wars Alliance. She combines both control skills and the ability to perform huge damage. Her unique ability is charming, allowing her to put enemies to sleep until they are damaged.
Due to this ability, she is effective against AoE damage teams, so that she can apply her charm to as many heroes as possible. Her skills can also neutralize high burst damage before they get a chance to strike.
Pros
  • A good pick for both physical damage and magic-dealing teams
  • Great against AoE damage heroes
  • Great control skills - charms heroes and puts them to sleep
  • Soul stones available in the early game via Grand Arena
Cons
  • No magic penetration as a mage hero
Following the path of love, the wildcat turned into a beautiful girl. But her happiness was short-lived, as her beloved fell in a battle. Crushed by grief, but strong in spirit, Lian decided to fight evil with the power of sincere feelings.

Best Lian Hydra Teams

Lian is not often used in Hydra battles and there is no meta team with this hero so far that can counter any Hydra.

How to counter Lian in Hero Wars Alliance?

Avoid using AoE damage dealers to counter Lian, so they don't get charmed. Such heroes include Keira and Orion. Try using single-attack damage heroes like K'arkh combined with the counter heroes below.
Corvus
Corvus
Corvus' altar will strike Lian every time she deals damage to her enemies, even if that Corvus himself might be charmed.
Kayla
Kayla
Kayla can bypass Lian's charm to itself by self-damaging with her Inner Flame skill at the same time the charm is applied to her. Kayla will sure be charmed but not for that long compared to other heroes.
Nebula
Nebula
Nebula can remove all of Lian's negative effects with her Serenity skill.
Celeste
Celeste
Celeste can also clear Lian's negative effects with her Purifying Sphere.
