Counter Tips

How to beat Medusa

A drained mana pool turns off Mana Shield and renders her abilities useless, so mana burn is your best tool against her.

Medusa's early game is weak, so gank her and disrupt her economy before she can farm her core items.

She relies on Manta, Skadi and Butterfly to dominate, so apply early pressure to delay those items.

Dark Seer punishes her stat heavy build with Ion Shell damage and strong lane pressure.

Monkey King locks her down with Wukong's Command, and Centaur disrupts her with durability and Stampede.
