Heroes That Counter Biron

Biron is a melee fighter built around his Energy bar: his passive Battle Without Retreat Battle Without Retreat gains Energy whenever his basic attacks and non-empowered skills hit enemies, up to 90 points. At 30 Energy or more, his basic attacks deal bonus damage and heal him, and his skills become empowered. Skill 1 Electric Mace Strike Electric Mace Strike swings his weapon to deal damage and heal, skill 2 Storm Assault Storm Assault charges forward and empowers his next attack to slow (the empowered version also knocks up and stuns), and his ultimate Magnetic Gravity Magnetic Gravity slams the ground to slow, grants a shield and, when empowered, raises an electric field that steals enemy heroes’ movement speed. Biron Biron ‘s weaknesses are having only one dash, no CC immunity, and needing to stay close to his target to build Energy. He fears true damage, hard CC and kiting the most. The best counters to Biron Biron are Florentino, Allain, Ryoma in the Dark Slayer lane, Zanis, Volkath in the jungle, Aleister in the mid lane, Baldum at support and Hayate in the Abyssal Dragon lane.

Items to Counter Biron

Sonic Boots

These boots grant 60 movement speed and reduce the damage you take from basic attacks by 10%. Most of Biron’s burst comes from his regular mace swings empowered by Battle Without Retreat Battle Without Retreat , plus the attack right after Storm Assault Storm Assault , so you lose less HP in every trade in the Dark Slayer lane.


Frost Cape

After each skill cast, your next attack within 5 seconds deals bonus physical damage in a 3m radius around the target and slows by 30% for 0.5 seconds. Melee fighters use this effect to keep pinning Biron down; with only one dash, he struggles to chase or escape.


Frost Mace

Freeze makes each basic attack or skill slow the target by an additional 5% to 10%, lasting 1.5 seconds and stacking up to 2 times; Chill adds periodic bonus physical damage. In a marksman’s hands, this item turns every shot into a slow, making it hard for Biron to catch up even after using Storm Assault Storm Assault .


Frosty's Revenge

Every damaging skill applies Frostbite, slowing the opponent by 20% for 2 seconds. This lets mages keep Biron outside his mace range, since he only has Storm Assault Storm Assault to close in and must land hits to build Energy.

How to Counter Biron in 1vs1 Duels

Read the Energy bar: Biron is only empowered at 30 Energy or more, and each empowered attack consumes Energy. When the bar is nearly full, don’t stand and trade; right after he has unloaded an empowered attack is your time to counterattack.

Dodge the attack after Storm Assault: After the charge from Storm Assault Storm Assault , it’s the next basic attack that knocks up and stuns when he has enough Energy. Step back as soon as he dashes in, or use a dash or CC-immunity skill to dodge exactly that beat.

Trade while he clears minions: Electric Mace Strike Electric Mace Strike heals Biron, but the effect is halved against non-hero units. Attack while he has to use skills on minions so he heals as little as possible.

Call the jungler when he pushes deep: Once he has used Storm Assault to go in, Biron has almost no way out. Bait him into pushing the wave up, then call your jungler for a gank.

How to Counter Biron in Team Fights

Spread out before Magnetic Gravity: Magnetic Gravity Magnetic Gravity slows enemies in the area, and the empowered version also raises an electric field that steals each enemy hero’s movement speed for Biron, with the field’s radius growing with each skill level. Clumping up just puts your whole team in position to be chased down.

CC him the moment he dives in: Biron has no CC immunity. Stunning, knocking up or imprisoning him right as he charges into your formation cuts his entire combo; Aleister’s Magic Prison Magic Prison and Baldum’s Wild Prison Wild Prison do this best.

Protect the carries: Biron must land hits to build Energy. Keep your tank between him and your marksman and mage so he wastes Energy on a durable target.

Kite once he’s used his skills: While Storm Assault is on cooldown, Biron can only walk. This is when ranged heroes like Hayate can back off and shoot at the same time.

Tips for Countering Biron

  • Magnetic Gravity grants a shield and steals enemy heroes’ movement speed, helping him both survive and chase.
  • Electric Mace Strike heals him every time it hits an enemy, giving him solid lane sustain.

Weaknesses to Exploit

  • Only one dash, Storm Assault, so he’s easy to kite.
  • No CC immunity or cleanse.
  • Below 30 Energy his skills aren’t empowered and his power drops noticeably.
  • Healing from Electric Mace Strike is halved against minions and monsters.
  • Has to stick to his target to build Energy; vulnerable to true damage and ranged heroes.
