Ivana55%- Teams running cleanse and effect resistance — Her Defense Down leans on landing a debuff; a cleanse wipes it and high effect resistance lets enemies shrug it off, blunting the disruption her single-target attack is meant to set up.
- Immunity and untouchable protection — An immunity buff stops her Defense Down from sticking, and shields applied before she acts can soak the hit even as she dispels — if the protection refreshes faster than she can strip it, she loses the exchange.
- Burst that races her five-turn ultimate — Her board-wide strip, cooldown push, and CR drain all live on a single skill with a long cooldown; between casts she is just a single-target attacker, so teams that win the race before it comes back online sidestep her control entirely.
- Defensive bruisers that outlast her chip — Her ultimate cannot crit and her own attack is single-target, so durable sustain-heavy enemies that survive the strip can grind back while she waits out the cooldown.

What Requiem Roana counters
- Buff-stacked teams that rely on shields and boosts — Her ultimate strips a buff from every enemy, so teams that lean on barriers, attack buffs, or layered protection lose a key piece of their setup across the whole board before they can cash it in.
- Fast, tempo-hungry compositions — She pushes the whole enemy team's Combat Readiness down 30% on her ultimate and her passive blunts the turn-meter everyone gains from Speed, so openers and CR-reliant attackers get knocked out of their preferred turn order.
- Cooldown-dependent threats — Her ultimate adds a turn to every enemy's cooldowns, delaying the big nukes and revives they were counting on — and unlike a debuff, that delay cannot simply be cleansed away.
- High-Defense and damage-mitigating walls — Her ultimate ignores half the target's Defense and her single-target hit can pile on Defense Down, so bulky front-liners and damage-reduction builds get punched through rather than out-tanked.
