DanSH.6143 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Honestly it's very boring to play against Scourge + Support combo, fights are super long, supports rezzing each other, I just wonder what can I play to counter that playstyle? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryo.5824 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I don't think you can counter scourge in this meta. It's meta for a reason. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armen.1483 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 It depends much on how good the early game goes, but I would say a good option is leaving them both in mid node (if they are in mid) and splitting forces on other nodes thus forcing them or at least one of them to leave mid to join their teammates that are outnumbered leaving that mid node now vulnerable to gank/decap from the other side. Remember you don't necessairly need mid node to win, you need more nods than the enemy and it can be any node. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonidrex.5649 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 scourge and necro in general is a stat check character. when its good there is almost nothing that can be done we will see more and more of stupid things like tempest+scourge+reaper, running into you blindly, spamming CC untill you are out, while facetaning milions of damage without dying, and then finishing you with lich when you are out of cooldowns, all the while having revive skills with almost no counterplay. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell that to the p2+ players on Scourge who avoid me like the plague every game they see me in game.

aymnad.9023 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) This duo is very strong, even if one dies the other can sometimes stall until they are a duo once more. I would say strong damage and lockdown are the best option and I would always prioritize the guard. When I bring a cc spam on chrono reapers do wonders in fights (of course it means that they already used some stab).

Shao.7236 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) You want to avoid those fights in general, even if you can down one. They'll likely get instant ressed and there goes all your skills. Their low mobility is their weakness. The only feasible thing I've ever done in a game is actual good focus then finishing off with Banner, honestly if DD's started using Impact Strike, it would kinda shift res away a little.
