Phantom Assassin relies on evasion from Immaterial and critical hits from Coup de Grace, with Blur disjointing projectiles and Phantom Strike closing the gap for the burst. Immaterial and Coup de Grace are both passive, so break shuts them off, and attacks that pierce evasion land regardless of Immaterial. A disarm cancels her attacks entirely.
Counter items
Monkey King BarPierce lets attacks through Immaterial evasion and adds magical damage.
Silver EdgeBreak shuts off Immaterial and Coup de Grace for 5 seconds.
Heaven's HalberdDisarm for 3.5 seconds stops the attacks her critical hits depend on.
