Muerta relies on Dead Shot's fear and on Pierce the Veil, which dodges projectiles on transformation and turns all her attack damage magical. That transformation is a basic dispel target, and a silence leaves both Dead Shot and the transformation uncast. Magic barriers and resistance matter most while she is ethereal, since every hit then lands as spell damage.
