Who Counters Benevolent Romann in Epic Seven?

Notos, Zio, Lone Crescent Bellona and other hard counters counter Benevolent Romann. His threat is the silence and Defense break from his five-turn-cooldown main skill. A teammate who cleanses wipes those off, and with the long cooldown he can't immediately reapply the lockdown.

Cleanse: His threat is the silence and Defense break from his five-turn-cooldown main skill. A teammate who cleanses wipes those off, and with the long cooldown he can't immediately reapply the lockdown. Effect immunity: If enemies enter the fight or pre-apply immunity, his silence and Defense decrease simply fail to stick, neutralizing his main source of control. High Effect Resistance backlines: His silence and Defense break are chance-based, so resistant targets can shrug them off, and his snowball relies on landing the silence first to double his follow-up procs. Burst before he sets up: His big AoE silence is on a long cooldown and his CR drain on the basic is only a 35% chance, so a team that simply kills him fast denies him the turns he needs to disrupt.

Skill-dependent casters and shapers: His AoE silence for two turns shuts off active skills entirely. Once a key enemy is silenced, his basic attack's follow-up proc chance doubles, so he snowballs against teams that rely on a hero casting a specific ability. Fast cleave and one-shot openers: The Mana Burst follow-up drains 15-50% Combat Readiness from the whole enemy team, and he separately strips enemy CR, denying the tempo and turn order that fast openers and burst comps need to land first. Defensive bruisers: His main skill can decrease Defense across the enemy team, opening up tanky frontlines so his damage dealers punch through.
