Hey guys I recently started playing again after some time and there are a few champions I go up against in Battlegrounds that I have no idea how to fight and was wondering if I could get some help.
The Champions:
- Enchantress
- Onslaught
- The Serpent
- Bullseye
Any help is appreciated. Thank you

For onslaught, i simply use lantern. Otherwise, keep him on sp1. Learn to dodge. After every 10 hits, he gets a crush charge, try not to get hit.
For serpent, use a nullify based attacker, sorcerer supreme, doom, kushala, isophyne etc.
For bullseye, keep him at sp1, don't hit when he fills his 1st bar, untill he throws his sp1. Wait for the green thingy to disappear, and then you can hit him again. You can dodge sp1, but you will still get bleed damage. Try to use someone who is bleed immune.
I am not a pro, i still get clipped many times. You need bit practice and luck.
Orange: Intercept enchantress
Purple: Knock Enchantress down
Green: Interrupt her heavy
Bear in mind, some spells can make this process difficult. If you forget what to do in the middle of the fight, if you pause, it will tell you in the pause menu how to remove the specials.
Onslaught: DO NOT PARRY ONSLAUGHT. This will apply a daunted onto you, shutting off your willpower, very bad. Other than that, learn how to Dex his sp1, and if you can do both of these things, he becomes easier. However, his AI seems very erratic, so always approach this fight carefully.
Serpent: God I hate this champion. If you do not have a champ who can control his power, Ggs. He will go red and nuke you. Chavez and sorcerer supreme come to mind. Also, unless you are using dazzler, or spiral (with her dancing blades), you cannot dex his specials. So just try and parry them as best you can. To totally level with you, I ban this champ nearly every BGs match. I cannot stand this champion.
Bullseye: If you bring an evade counter, he’s much easier, or just bring sinister. Sinister hard counters bullseye. Other great counters: NTW, okoye, and I’m sure there are others.
Hopefully this was helpful! Let me know if I can clarify anything further!
Good counters in BGs:
Silk (remove spells, sp2 nuke)
Hulk (stun lock)
Spider-Ham (I’ve seen a strategy of tanking the sp3 when she has a lot of power stings)
Starky (one of the best, you can dex 10 times and kill her before she has a chance to do anything pretty much)
Red Guardian
Any nuke champ that doesn’t rely on buffs
Onslaught: Don’t parry and watch for the crushed every 10 combo hits. Make sure to dash back to remove neuroshocks. Any nuke works here honestly, he’s a champ that needs some practice to fight against
Some tips that I’ve used in GC extensively:
Block the first hit of his sp1 to get willpower healing from the magnetism
Dash in before the last hit and dash back and back in to punish the sp1. I’d recommend watching a video for this
Some of my favorite counters:
- Starky again, you’ll take some neuro damage but he’s very safe and you can play without even worrying about baiting a special.
- Adam but he’s harder to use so I’ll just give him a mention
-Jack O Lantern is a direct counter and you can just go to sp2 with him and the same with Bastion though he’s new
- Any nuke champ like Juggs, FAM, Silk, Hulk can all kill him fast if you watch out for the crushed and stuff and play their rotations normally
Bullseye: You want a hard counter or a bleed immune/evade counter. Don’t attack him while he’s in killer instinct unless you have a way to counter evade that’s not slow based. Champs like NTW and Sinister play around him completely.
Any sustainable bleed immune with good damage honestly works great, Kushala is tanky and a good option, I use Starky all the time because he can also kill Bullseye before he becomes an issue, Onslaught works great, etc
Serpent: Bait his specials and remember you can’t dex them unless you turn off his true sense buff. He’s tough but the best counters would be Tigra, Wiccan, Chavez, Kushala, Shathra, Spiral, and White Tiger and other mystics that play around his damage reduction
Enchantress you need to learn her various prompts. It's a lot of learning but in most metas she is manageable.
Onslaught the most important thing is learn to full dex his SP1. With most champions, you can dash in before the final hit, dex it and then punish. It's a lot of practice but once you have it down he is also manageable.
Bullseye has quite a few counters now that work well in a deck (Sinister, Bishop and Onslaught all work among others like NTW). If you don't have counters or don't want to run them, best to ban.
Serpent, basically same advice as Bullseye except it's a hard requirement. You will not win rounds against him without counters. So you either need to build your deck with counters or you pretty much have to ban him.
for BG specifically that should be a real quick pause and peek? or use that in a few practice fights with her to get her pattern down.
If you are struggling against dexing onslaughts sp1, he was a boss for one of the “of pain” fights a while back. Try to find one of those videos for a tutorial on how to dex.
- Enchantress - ban
- Onslaught - use jack
- The Serpent - use kushala and always 1st blessing active
- Bullseye - use sinister
