Lilias, a non-attack-punisher provoke knight, is a 5★ Fire Knight in Epic Seven. Lilias's biggest weakness: her durability and her control both rely on the provoke and self-barrier from her passive; a dispel or cleanse removes them, undoing her lockdown and leaving her exposed. Below are the heroes and team archetypes that counter Lilias in RTA, the matchups where Lilias struggles most, and how to draft against Lilias.
Enemies that strip or remove her barrier and provoke — Her durability and her control both rely on the provoke and self-barrier from her passive; a dispel or cleanse removes them, undoing her lockdown and leaving her exposed.
Immunity-granting supports — If the enemy team is shielded by immunity, her provoke simply fails to land, so the forced-target lock and the bonus damage to provoked enemies never come online.
Anti-heal and unhealable effects — Her staying power leans on her own max-Health barrier and sustain; applying unhealable or heal-block cuts off her recovery so chip and burst can grind her down.
Pure-attacker burst that never uses a setup skill — Her best moments hinge on the enemy casting a non-attack skill to spring her passive; a team that simply attacks every turn never triggers the cleanse, provoke, or shield, and her five-turn finisher cooldown leaves long gaps where she is just a slow tank.

Enemies who lean on buffs and setup skills — Her passive triggers off any enemy non-attack skill: the moment a buffer, cleanser, or stance-setter acts, she provokes them for a turn and locks them onto attacking her, derailing their support turn while she shields up.
Fast openers and Combat-Readiness teams — Her all-enemy skill knocks 25% Combat Readiness off everyone, denying tempo to teams that race to act first, and the provoke from her passive also forces an enemy off its intended target.
Debuff and crowd-control reliant comps — Her passive cleanses all her own debuffs each time an enemy uses a non-attack skill, and her self-barrier blunts follow-up burst, so stacking poisons, stuns, or silences on her tends to slide off.
High-Attack glass targets she can punish while provoked — Her finisher deals extra damage to provoked enemies and borrows the highest Attack on her own team, turning the provoke she sets up into amplified all-enemy damage.
