How to counter Leonel in Hero Wars Alliance?

Helios
Helios

Helios' Flaming Retribution skill deals massive damage to any enemy that lands a critical hit on an ally, often killing Leonel before he can finish his combo.

Amira
Amira
Amira can reduce the critical hit chance of agility-based heroes and use her "illusory gold" to make physical attacks miss. This severely disrupts Leonel's damage output and energy-draining passive.
Corvus
Corvus

Leonel's Ultimate (Blades of Shadow) hits multiple times in quick succession. Corvus' Altar of Souls will strike Leonel back for every single hit he delivers, potentially finishing him off while he is "untargetable."

Lian
Lian
Because Leonel attacks from behind and jumps into the team, Lian can charm him when he strikes her. This halts his momentum and leaves him vulnerable to being focused down by your backline.
Phobos
Phobos
Leonel burns energy, but Phobos is the master of it. Phobos can target Leonel (who often has high physical attack/stats) to stun him and burn his energy first, preventing him from ever launching his Blades of Shadow.
Jorgen
Jorgen

Jorgen's can block Leonel's energy gain, slowing his skill activation.
