Best counters to Romann
- Effect Resistance and the immunity buff — His turn-meter reduction and the Restrict turn-gain block can be resisted or bounced off an immunity buff, neutering the control half of his kit.
- Cleanse support — An ally who scrubs debuffs can wipe the turn-gain block and bleed right after he applies them, undoing the lockout he just set up.
- His own cooldowns and lack of a passive — The team-wide push is on a 3-turn cooldown and the dispel-plus-block is on 5 turns; with no passive to fall back on, between casts he leans on a single-target basic that does little to a full team.
- Burst that races his control — He brings no shields, heals, or survivability, so a faster nuke that lands before his lockout resolves can simply kill through him or his backline before the CR denial matters.

Lethe56%- Turn-one openers and fast carries — His team-wide turn-meter reduction and the 2-turn block on enemy turn-gain on Event Horizon deny fast attackers their first move, dragging them out of the opening rotation they depend on to strike first.
- Buff-stacking and buff-reliant teams — Event Horizon dispels all buffs from the entire enemy team before it lands, erasing attack buffs, defense buffs, and stacked enhancements that a buff-dependent carry needs to function.
- Shielded and damage-soaking frontlines — His full-team dispel rips away protective buffs, and because Event Horizon strikes everyone, defensive enchantments meant to absorb the hit get peeled off before the damage applies.
- Tempo-greedy comps — Between single-target gauge reduction, four chances of team-wide reduction, and self gauge-gain, he repeatedly steals turns so the enemy gets fewer actions while he loops back faster.
