How to counter Markus in Hero Wars Alliance?

Celeste
Celeste
Almost all of Markus' skills are related to healing, so Celeste's ability to convert healing into damage is crucial.
Oya
Oya

Oya can counter the heroes that Markus protects with his shield. Shielded enemies take 100% more damage from any of Oya's skills.

Heidi
Heidi

Heidi can apply toxins to the opponent whenever they hit or are absorbed by a shield. Marku's shield, which absorbs damage, makes him Heidi's target.

Chabba
Chabba
Being used as a second tank, Markus can become vulnerable if Chabba swallows the main tank and make Markus vulnerable to front-line attacks.
