Jungle/Top Lane Fighters That Counter Enzo

Zanis

With his 1st skill’s crowd control removal and strong burst damage, Zanis easily escapes Enzo’s hooks and quickly counter-attacks to take him down.

Florentino

When playing Flo, you just need to land his 3rd skill dash accurately to trigger crowd control immunity, then keep dancing with flowers to stun and burst damage quickly, and this hero will easily shred Enzo.

Riktor

Riktor moves extremely flexibly, and his crowd control immunity and damage immunity skill mean he’s not at all afraid of being hooked into an unfavorable position by Enzo. In fact, Riktor can always stick to and take Enzo down even when he tries to use his mobility to escape.

Support Heroes That Counter Enzo

Toro

Toro is a hard counter to Enzo. With extremely high durability plus crowd control immunity skills, Toro can easily move up to shield his teammates from Enzo’s hooks, leaving him unable to either close in or retreat successfully.

Cresht

Cresht is basically similar to Toro. When he activates his transformation ultimate, Cresht can gain a large amount of armor and AoE crowd control, easily protecting his teammates from Enzo’s hooks and burst damage.

Gildur

Gildur, with a ton of stun and knockback, easily controls and corners Enzo, preventing him from finding an opportunity to reach an important target. In fact, if Enzo goes full damage build, he could very well be taken down by this hero’s considerable magic damage.

Tips for Countering Enzo

Strengths to Watch Out For

  • High mobility, able to close in and retreat repeatedly and very effectively — extremely frustrating.
  • Strong burst damage, dangerous once he successfully reaches a core target.
  • Can pull targets from a long distance and toss them back, creating sudden opportunities to pick someone off.

Weaknesses to Exploit

  • Enzo relies heavily on successfully closing in to deal damage. If you keep dodging or corner him into whiffing his skills, he becomes very easy to counter-attack.
  • Lacks good durability, easily taken down when burst and crowd controlled.
  • Once he’s used up his whole kit, Enzo is usually in a very weak position, making it the ideal time for you to attack or counter-attack hard.
