Best Counter for Serpent?

In BGs.

Also, is Kushala better than Chavez since Chavez can take a while if she doesnt crit on the sp2 and the crit damage resistance?

I used Ham the other day since Serpent loves to throw specials when he's unblockable 🤷🏽

I thought he reduces burst damage by a certain amount

The person you're replying to has tried to flex 90 second BGs fights with 50% health left so I don't think time or health matters to them lol.

Everyone saying Chavez and kushala. Can someone breakdown the game plan or rotation to taking serpent down with them? I might as well include Wiccan in here.

Not sure about that but he damn sure took 99,000 porker damage in this fight lol. I also have 5* ant-man relic that inflicts power stings. Note* Serpent wasn't awakened. And I'm not saying Hamhock is the "best" counter. I was just trying him out to see how he does. His little porky butt shocked me with this win lol.

If you use him, just play better than me, you'll have better results 😂 @EdisonLaw

Chavez - Just play normally, but ensure you always have 2 violet dimensions active at all times (So he doesn't gain any passive power). Especially activate as many violet dimensions as possible during death immunity.

Kush - Get her spells, especially the regen on block spell, which allows you to regenerate all damage, and go for sp2.

Wiccan - Apply his spells, and always try to have neutralize up , Especially when death immunity triggers. But remember, your neutralize isn't guaranteed to prevent death immunity (since he is very balanced😭)

Ban , where is this option?

But I never do this, because I have Serpent.
And if rival get Serpent to choose for the 7 Champs.

And he starts by choosing him, I do use my Serpent as attacker.

If Im the First to pick a defender, I choose Serpent.

If the rival choose Serpent as defender after this, I pick my Hercules 6 stars sig 160, ,Moondragon or Photon 7 stars.

I use r5 sig 200 ascended Abs man. Stay in Uru. Bait his L1. Save striker, 5 hit combo, and l1 for final phase. Usually get him down in about 100 seconds.

Curious why some are voting Kushala over Chavez, is it cause you have a r3 Shala and not a 3 AC ?

Or just find that shes reliable more often than not since AC is more crit reliant whereas she uses DOT for her damage source. (And also doesn't have to worry about block damage which Chavez still has to take since she doesnt completely reverse the power gain)?

Wouldn’t the magma form be better since his specials deal energy damage?

I find because of fight pacing, that I can’t keep refining Magma up consistently. So Uru is what has been working for me.

Thanks. Need to do some practices.

If she is awakened she puts fear on him so his first special won't be unblockable. Dash back and forward to have a 2-second precision and hit him until you get to an sp2 using full combos (full combos nullify power gain and energize).

When at sp2 throw, dash back and do it again (she has power gain and will be unblockable if you steal enough power from the previous sp2). Rinse repeat until he dead.
