What Uranus is bad at
- Radiance only stacks while he's being hit, so opponents who disengage instead of trading starve his sustain
- No hard CC of his own — Ionic Edge and Transcendent Ward only slow, so he can't lock a target down alone
- True damage and max-HP-scaling damage shred through the huge HP pool his whole kit is built around
- Anti-heal effects that cut HP Regen effectiveness remove Radiance's healing directly, gutting his win condition
Every counter below works by pressing one of these.
Hard counters to Uranus
Pick one of these and the matchup is decided before the fight starts.
DyrrothFighterHardDyrroth's ultimate, Abysm Strike, deals bonus physical damage scaled to a percentage of Uranus's already-lost HP, so the more Radiance has let him get chipped before healing back, the harder the nuke lands, and Fatal Strike shreds his physical defense on top of it.
AulusFighterHardAulus, Charge! strips any slow Ionic Edge lands on him and grants frontal damage reduction, letting him close distance freely and duel through the chip damage, while his passive's stacking physical penetration eats into whatever defense Uranus builds alongside his HP.
KarrieMarksmanHardKarrie's passive, Lightwheel Mark, detonates at five stacks into true damage equal to a percentage of the target's max HP, turning the huge HP pool Radiance is built around into her single biggest damage source.
AlphaFighterHardAlpha's companion Beta deals true damage on Locked-On targets and in the strafes that follow both Rotary Impact and Force Swing, so a large share of his total output bypasses Uranus's defense and HP stacking no matter how tanky he builds.
Soft counters
Favourable, but Uranus can still play around them.
EstesSupportSoftEstes's ultimate, Blessing of Moon Goddess, gives his whole team continuous HP recovery for several seconds, out-healing the sustained magic chip from Ionic Edge and Transcendent Ward faster than Uranus can grind anyone down.
IxiaMarksmanSoftIxia's ultimate, Full Barrage, splits her weapon into six and hits up to six targets at once while Siphon Starlium heals her off the damage, letting her out-trade Uranus at range without Ionic Edge's slow landing any real disruption.
AngelaSupportSoftAngela's ultimate, Heartguard, shields an ally regardless of distance and then attaches her to them, handing a target Uranus is chasing a sustain window he has no hard CC to interrupt.
KimmyMarksman · MageSoftKimmy manually aims her basic attacks and can move while firing, letting her kite outside Transcendent Ward's dash range indefinitely while her ultimate threatens burst from well beyond where Uranus can start a trade.
XavierMageSoftXavier's Infinite Extension pierces every enemy in a line for full damage, so Uranus can't body-block for allies behind him, and Dawning Light's long beam pokes down his HP from a range his kit has no answer for.
