"Soon, you will know the power of the Arcane!" - Valir, MLBB.

Valir is a mage who specializes in damaging enemies from a far distance while also having defensive skills that enable him to counter almost any diving heroes. This hero is very reliable regarding team fights, especially against melee heroes. As long as you are in the proper position, the only other thing you have to worry about is the right timing.

Although Valir seems too good to be true, he is not entirely made to perfection either. Like some heroes in Mobile Legends, he has low mobility, limiting his escape mechanism if an enemy hero puts him on target lock. Therefore users must know the importance of choosing the right battle spell.

It does not matter whether you are in low or high rank; this hero will always give you a hard time, especially during the early game. I'm here to provide you with the guidelines of the Top 10 heroes you can choose that are powerful enough to counter one of the meta mages of all season in a ranked game.

1. Lancelot

 “I have no sympathy to spare for evil doers.” -Lancelot, MLBB.

First on our list is Lancelot. You can rely on this assassin’s serious damage and dodging ability with his second skill and not leave any opportunity for his target to escape with the correct use of his first and ultimate skills. It will allow you to quickly get closer to an enemy or fall back whenever possible.

WHY LANCELOT IS GREAT AGAINST VALIR:

  • Wide range attacks
  • Exceptional dodging ability
  • Multiple dashes (to get closer or escape)

BEST ITEMS TO USE AGAINST VALIR:

  • Athena’s Shield
  • Radiant Armor
  • Immortality
  • Blade of Heptaseas
  • Blade of Despair

2. Lesley

"One shot, One kill." -Lesley, MLBB

Lesley is on par with Valir regarding long-range attacks, but she has the advantage of being a marksman hero. Her first skill grants her movement speed while concealing herself for a few seconds landing critical damage when her bullet hits, making her hard to catch and perfect for engaging in surprise attacks.

WHY LESLEY IS GREAT AGAINST VALIR:

  • Long-range attacks
  • Agile
  • Ability to camouflage

BEST ITEMS TO USE AGAINST VALIR:

  • Athena’s Shield
  • Radiant Armor
  • Immortality
  • Windtalker
  • Blade of Heptaseas

3. Karina

 “The best assassination comes in the form of art.” -Karina, MLBB.

Since Valir has low mobility, Karina is the best fit for his counter since it would be hard for him to handle assassins with multi-stage dash skills. Karina’s first skill also gives her immunity, so she has no problem getting close to flames.

WHY KARINA IS GREAT AGAINST VALIR:

  • High durability
  • Immunity to any attacks
  • Multi-stage dash skills

BEST ITEMS TO USE AGAINST VALIR:

  • Athena’s shield
  • Radiant Armor
  • Immortality
  • Calamity reaper
  • Feather of Heaven

4. Kaja

 “There’s nowhere for you to run, nowhere you can hide.” -Kaja, MLBB.

Kaja might be classified as a support hero, but he is not one to be taken lightly. This hero is one of the most suitable counters for Valir because his ultimate is hard to escape even if you choose "purify" as your battle spell. When it comes to Kaja— it’s always an easy kill for low-durability heroes.

WHY KAJA IS GREAT AGAINST VALIR:

  • Hero lock ultimate skill
  • Highly recommended for ambush attacks
  • Can be used with tank items for sustained damage

BEST ITEMS TO USE AGAINST VALIR:

  • Athena’s shield
  • Radiant Armor
  • Conceal (roam)
  • Divine glaive
  • Glowing wand

5. Ling

"Still Swords, run deep." -Ling, MLBB.

We got one more assassin for the team. Ling is one of the most complex heroes in mobile legends. However, to learn and master his skills is worth it. If you are using Valir against Ling, your only way out is hoping he runs out of energy because he will be able to catch you by leaping through walls no matter what.

WHY LING IS GREAT AGAINST VALIR:

  • Ability to leap from walls
  • High damage
  • Immune ultimate

BEST ITEMS TO USE AGAINST VALIR:

  • Radiant armor
  • Blade of despair
  • Windtalker
  • Berserker’s fury
  • Immortality

 “Listen to the sound of snowing.” -Aurora, MLBB.

There is nothing more reasonable than Ice beating fire. Aurora is also a mage-type hero who has superior crowd control skills. She can stun and slow the enemies down, making them vulnerable and easier to ambush by your teammates. Despite having low mobility and being less durable than Valir, she can do a “one hit-delete” combo with her skill set.
