What Pharsa is bad at
- Extremely low HP and no personal escape besides the flight itself
- Feathered Air Strike telegraphs her position in the air for the full 8-second flight, giving the enemy team time to converge on her
- No hard CC of her own besides the delayed Curse of Crow follow-up stun
- Falls off hard against dash-heavy assassins who close distance before she can kite
Every counter below works by pressing one of these.

Soft counters
Favourable, but Pharsa can still play around them.
HanzoAssassinSoftKinjutsu: Pinnacle Ninja sends Hanekage charging through terrain to reach Pharsa while Hanzo's real body stays behind invincible, and Soul Snatch finishes her off at full Dark Ninjutsu stacks.
GlooTankSoftGloo's Sticky slow stacks and Grab, Grab's attach negate Pharsa's kite-and-flight kit, and every skill she lands on him only cuts her own damage further.
MathildaSupport · AssassinSoftMathilda's dash-and-blink kit closes distance faster than Pharsa can kite, punishing her for landing a stationary poke cast.
ChipSupport · TankSoftChip's Shortcut drops a portal on Pharsa and brings his allies straight through it, skipping the poke damage her range is meant to charge them.
