How to counter LashHow to counter
Counter heroes, counter items and the window to fight
Heroes that do best against Lash, the items that do best when Lash is on the enemy team, and the window to fight. Each number compares a hero's (or item's) result against Lash with its usual result, relative to how everyone does against Lash, so neither a strong counter-pick nor a strong Lash skews the list.
Their combo: Lash grapples toward you, channels Death Slam for 2.3s to latch onto everyone in sight, lifts and stuns them and slams them down, and dives with Ground Strike.
When to fight: Break line of sight or leave range during the 2.3s channel and you won’t be grabbed. Guides also recommend stunning or silencing him during it.
Beware: Spread out so he can’t latch several of you.
