Who Counters Rinak in Epic Seven?

Earth Earth · Assassin · 5★ · 54% RTA win rate

Rinak, a speed-scaling pilfer dispel assassin, is a 5★ Earth Assassin in Epic Seven. Rinak's biggest weakness: her enemy-facing edge is the Pilfer debuff, the buff-strip and the Combat Readiness drop; an ally cleanse removes the Pilfer and a pre-applied immunity blocks the debuffs outright, neutralizing her disruption before it sticks. Below are the heroes and team archetypes that counter Rinak in RTA, the matchups where Rinak struggles most, and how to draft against Rinak.

Best counters to Rinak

  • Cleanse and immunity supports — Her enemy-facing edge is the Pilfer debuff, the buff-strip and the Combat Readiness drop; an ally cleanse removes the Pilfer and a pre-applied immunity blocks the debuffs outright, neutralizing her disruption before it sticks.
  • Enemies that steal or shorten her own buffs — She powers her tempo with self Attack up, but her finisher already dispels her own buffs as a built-in drawback, and an opponent who steals or shortens buffs can strip the Attack boost she leans on to hit hard.
  • Burst that punishes her fragility — As an Assassin with no passive and a basic attack that cannot crit, she has no defensive safety net; a faster nuker or a counterattacker can simply kill or punish her before her disruption matters.
  • Single-target focus against wide teams — Her buff-strip, Combat Readiness drop, and Pilfer all hit only one enemy, so a team built around several threats can keep operating while she can fully disrupt only one of them per turn — only her 7000 fixed-damage splash touches the whole team.

What Rinak counters

  • Buff-stacked enemies and self-shielding wardens — Her second and third skills strip every buff off the target before striking, so heroes who lean on stacked Attack, immunity, barriers, or self-shields lose their protection the instant she opens on them.
  • Tanks and damage-reduction walls — Both her basic attack and finisher fully penetrate Defense and her finisher adds 7000 fixed damage to all enemies, so bulky defenders and high-Defense backliners take real damage no matter how much armor they pile on.
  • Fast tempo carries trying to act first — Her second skill drops the target's Combat Readiness and grants her an extra turn, letting her push an enemy down the turn order and steal the opening that cleavers and fast openers rely on.
