Best Counters to Black Panther
How to Counter Black Panther
Black Panther needs Vibranium Marks to chain his lunges, so dodge his Spear Toss and he is left with a 10-second Spirit Rend and 3 m claws. Crowd control stops him mid-chain, and Hulk's Radioactive Lockdown can freeze him for 2 seconds while your team turns on him. Once he drops under 100 health he deals 20% more damage, so finish him instead of letting him escape at low health.
