How to Counter Star-Lord
Star-Lord needs to be within about 10 m to deal full damage, so keep your distance and punish him after both Stellar Shift charges are gone, since they are his dodge and his reload. Heroes who fight in the air, like Storm, or who lay down zones, like Peni Parker, can deny his dives. When Galactic Legend starts, break line of sight: the lock-on only fires at enemies he can see within 40 m.
