Who Counters Great Chief Khawana in Epic Seven?

Notos, Shepherd of the Dark Diene, Frieren and other hard counters counter Great Chief Khawana. The Speed buff she hands the team can be stripped or stolen outright, and shortening buff duration cuts the Speed boost short before it pays off.

Buff removal and theft: The Speed buff she hands the team can be stripped or stolen outright, and shortening buff duration cuts the Speed boost short before it pays off. Cleanse on the enemy side: Her one piece of pressure is the Combat Readiness block from her attack; an enemy that cleanses simply removes it, leaving her hit doing little. Effect immunity: Immunity stops the Combat Readiness block from landing at all, so a target that enters the fight buffed against debuffs ignores her control entirely. Cooldown windows: Her cleanse, team Speed, and extra turn are all tied to one skill on a five-turn cooldown, so once it is spent she has only a single-target attack to offer until it comes back.

Speed and turn-order setups: Her basic attack can block an enemy's Combat Readiness gain, denying them their next turn, and the effect lasts two turns against Light enemies. Combined with the team Speed buff and her own free extra turn, she pulls turn order in her side's favor. Debuff-stacking and control comps: Her team skill scrubs two debuffs off every ally at once, so enemies who rely on piling on damage-over-time, defense breaks, silence, or stun to lock a team down see that pressure wiped and the team kept moving. Dodge-reliant evaders: Her attack ignores evasion, so heroes who survive by dodging cannot avoid her hit or the Combat Readiness block that comes with it. Dual-Attack crit teams: She raises the whole team's Critical Hit Chance and, as allies trigger Dual Attacks, stacks her own Attack up to three times, amplifying a fast, crit-leaning offense around her.
