How to counter Harith
5 hard counters, 5 soft · 3 counter-items · full Harith guide
What Harith is bad at
- Squishy if Chrono Dash whiffs — no shield, no reset, and he's stuck in the open
- Synchro Fission requires good phantom placement to land the collision, and a poorly aimed cast wastes the whole combo
- No hard crowd control of his own beyond slows, so he can't lock a target down to finish a kill
- Heavily combo-reliant early — before items, his poke damage alone doesn't punish enemies much
Every counter below works by pressing one of these.
