Besides Iceman, who else can counter the super-annoying NC?

Crossbones
Black widow (although class down her sig works less)
Elektra
Agent venom
List goes on I’m sure
Doctor Strange and Magneto:
Both use only energy attacks meaning his Evade isn’t as strong and make it easier to force him into Swashbuckler
Dormammu:
Same as above except bleed immune too
Agent Venom:
A two way street. Passive Evade halving but Deep Wounds ignores his tenacity as it’s instantaneous and AV loses in class relations
Karnak:
If you manage Sp1 can chain be can fully ignore all evades (except his Sp1 Evade) and you can use it to attack or force him into SB mode
Crossbones, Black Widow and GP:
Different means of basic Ability Reduction all class
Voodoo:
Go for an odd combo and he’ll half his Evade similar to AV
Iceman (LOLZ)
ALL CHAMPS:
Use a slow combo on his block to try and force him to switch
Once he switches modes, he's more useless than spider-gwen
he hits hard af in swashbuckling mode and duped. Pretty good attacker for questing my opinion of course
You and your skills with any champ.
Fight another day.
Yea...as hard as it is to do sometimes slower is better. Don't get greedy. I have that issue too.
it's parry, hit three times ending on a medium. parry again repeat. if he dashes back and starts his timer, go in for 4 hit combo ending on a light attack (do not go full 5). if he doesn't evade he switches to swashbuckling mode. match is pretty much over from there.
Bleed immune champs work best to not trigger his deep wounds ability.
Unless you are talking about a node where he is unstunnable, NC is a very easy champion to kill.
Follow simple rule = Never attack unless he is stunned.
Parry > attack til stun of off an fall back. Repeat.
If he is stunned he can never evade. very easy.
Unstunnable NC different strategy. make him swap to swashbuckling then easy mode
KOed one unawakened boss today.
However, we will be wiped off the field by opponent.
Still, a consolation victory. I get their boss first.
