How to Counter Jakiro

Jakiro relies on area spells: Dual Breath slows and burns, Ice Path stuns, and Macropyre deals lasting damage, and spell immunity blocks all three. Dual Breath does not trigger spell block or reflect, so Linken's Sphere and Lotus Orb are no answer to it. Liquid Frost makes targets take more damage from his attacks and abilities.

Counter items

  • Black King BarSpell immunity blocks Dual Breath, Ice Path and Macropyre.
  • Mage SlayerAttacking Jakiro applies a debuff that cuts the spell damage he deals.
  • Pipe of InsightA support item whose barrier soaks magic damage for nearby allies.
