How to counter PocketHow to counter

Counter heroes, counter items and the window to fight

Heroes that do best against Pocket, the items that do best when Pocket is on the enemy team, and the window to fight. Each number compares a hero's (or item's) result against Pocket with its usual result, relative to how everyone does against Pocket, so neither a strong counter-pick nor a strong Pocket skews the list.

Their combo: Pocket sends Flying Cloak and teleports to it, channels Barrage for 2s, then escapes into Enchanter’s Satchel.

When to fight: Enchanter’s Satchel is his escape. Once it’s used, he has none, at 780 health.

Beware: Barrage is a 2s channel; burst him during it rather than retreating.
