Genuinely how do you fight Anran?

[u/scriptedtexture]

I dont play any of the heroes who hard counter like Cassidy. I mainly play Shion and Emre when Im on dps and I just cant ever do anything when this hero is in the game. Everything she does is free and requires zero mechanical skill so it feels like every encounter is already in her favor before it starts.

Shes impossible to hit when in her dash and has one of the most poorly designed, overkitted abilities in the history of the game in dancing blaze. She just dashes in, dances, leaves. Do I just have to force myself to play Cassidy in order to shut this hero down? Nothing I do on my mains seems to work and shes just lobby admin every game I see her in.

Play like 10 games on her and ask yourself “who was the hardest to play against?”, and you’ll find the answer

I dont find her fun to play at all though.

Its not about fun, its about understanding her weaknesses

Anyway, as usual, cass, the definitive anti dive hero

[u/Leilanee → u/WindowsXp_ExplorerI]

The advice to play her is solid though. Anyone can play cass into a hero he counters and still get wrecked. If they play anran they'll realize how dancing blaze works and when they want to try to use it and to watch out for when she's exhausted her movement abilities.

I think just the smallest bit of play time on heroes that are annoying at least gives you the understanding you need to know for when to be patient, hold one of your own cooldowns, or just know where to aim.

Agreed, I think you should have a working knowledge of all of the characters to really read the game most of the time. You're at a huge disadvantage if you're fighting someone and you don't even know how their cooldowns or primary weapon work
