I am not a good player and am really struggling with this despite having a good rosta. Any help appreciated.

But if you are good with intercepting him, you can use any champion, honestly.
For the difficulties below Thronebreaker (I don't know if Newton's Law node is present in lower difficulties, but it is at least on Cavalier difficulty):
1. Countering Juggernaut's abilities: Focus on just parry combo, so that you place stuns frequently enough to deactivate his gem so he can't go unstoppable. Avoid heavy or too much specials as that will trigger the Newton's law node.
2. Countering the Nodes: If you do knock him down, you have to either be good at intercepts or have champions that counter unstoppable.
The defender seems to behave erratically when Newton's law node activates, as the AI tends to favor dashing back despite them being Unstoppable. It is pretty hard to get an intercept in on your first attempts.
Having a champion that has a Slow ability they can place on Juggernaut is probably the easiest solution.
I don't heavy much. Try to have some Light charges when I got Power String on me, make sure Jug doesn't have any SP, just hold heavy wait for Jug to try and hit me.
Combine that with 9 Dark Charges, and an SP2 usually does the job.
*It used to drive me crazy when the answer to every question was either Torch, red mag or Quake and I had none of them. Apologies if all the "use Torch" posts aren't helping haha.
