How to Counter Abaddon

Borrowed Time turns all damage into healing and is the core of Abaddon, while Aphotic Shield and Mist Coil keep allies alive around him. The automatic trigger below 400 health fails under Break, and a silence blocks a manual cast. Burst saved for the moment the buff ends works, since damage taken during it only heals.

Counter items

  • Silver EdgeIts attack disables passives, which stops Borrowed Time from triggering on its own.
  • Orchid MalevolenceSilence blocks a manual Borrowed Time cast, leaving only the automatic trigger.
