Catch the pesky magician.

Updated on May 29, 11:11 a.m. (GMT+8): Improved relevancy.

Harleyis one of the best mage/assassin heroes inMobile Legends: Bang Bang, with his low-cooldown spells enabling him to literally get away with murder.

He can blink in using Space Escape, burst down his target with Deadly Magic and Poker Trick, then escape unscathed back to his magic hat.

Furthermore, his passive, Magic Master, allows his basic attacks and skills to reduce his target’s magic defense, while increasing his attack speed and empowering his normal hits to deal magic damage.

Still, you may render the Mage Genius’ lethal combo useless and catch him off guard using these heroes.

These are strong hero counters to Harley in MLBB

Lolita

What makesLolitaa strong hero against Harley is her second skill, Guardian’s Reflection, which can reflect all incoming ranged basic attacks and skill projectiles in the direction of her shield. All of the ranged magician’s spells are projectiles, making Guardian’s Reflection a perfect counter to him.

Even if you get hit by his Deadly Magic as Lolita , he is reliant on Poker Trick and auto attacks to make it fatal.

Even if he uses Space Escape, you can continue hitting him with Shadow Kill as long as there are no other enemies in the area.

Use Ninjutsu: Quad Shadow to chase him if he attempts to flee with his magic hat. In terms of itemization, purchase Radiant Armor if you need to mitigate his magical DPS.

Another option is to cut it short by dashing forward with Shunpo or blinking in withFlicker, then cast The Way of Dragon. This combo has the potential to kill him if you build offensively.

If you’re playing Chou as aroamer-tank, you’re able to still do the same to dodge his spells. In this role, you should aim to use The Way of Dragon to kick him towards your allies to burst him down.
