How to counter VindictaHow to counter

Counter heroes, counter items and the window to fight

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

Their combo: Vindicta softens you with Crow Familiar (bleed and resist shred), tethers you in place with Stake (9m), then finishes with Assassinate.

When to fight: Assassinate has 2 charges. Once both are spent, she has no long-range finisher until they recharge.

Beware: Assassinate does bonus damage under half health and kills give her extra weapon damage. Break line of sight when you’re low.
