Storm struggles against heroes who can disrupt her setups or deal accurate burst damage. Here’s what heroes to play and how to counter Storm:

Dr. Strange: Eye of Agamotto (Q) separates Storm’s soul from her body, dealing direct damage and bypassing her crowd control. Shield of the Seraphim (Right Click) blocks Storm’s projectiles, limiting her effectiveness in fights.
Magneto: Metallic Curtain (LShift) blocks Storm’s ranged attacks, forcing her to reposition. Meteor M (Q) deals heavy area damage, punishing Storm for attempting to control clustered enemies.
Peni Parker: Cyber-Web Snare (Right Click) immobilizes Storm, stopping her from repositioning or casting abilities. Spider-Sweeper (Q) creates consistent area damage, countering Storm’s zoning tactics.

Hawkeye: Hunter’s Sight (Q) provides long-range pressure, keeping Storm on the defensive. Scourge Grenade (Right Click) blinds Storm, disrupting her ability to land accurate attacks.
Winter Soldier: Kraken Impact (Q) deals high burst damage, punishing Storm for trying to maintain her position. Tainted Voltage (E) slows her, limiting her mobility and effectiveness.
Hela: Soul Drainer (E) stuns Storm, interrupting her combos and crowd control. Goddess of Death (Q) applies consistent ranged pressure, keeping Storm out of key positions.
Star-Lord: Blaster Barrage (E) punishes Storm and her teammates if they group up. Stellar Shift (Right Click) allows Star-Lord to evade her abilities while maintaining safe pressure.
Spider-Man: Spectacular Spin (Q) stuns Storm, preventing her from casting abilities effectively. Get Over Here! (E) pulls her out of position, exposing her to follow-up attacks.

Adam Warlock: Soul Bond (LShift) spreads damage among allies, reducing the impact of Storm’s area abilities. Karmic Revival (Q) revives fallen teammates, countering her elimination strategy.
Loki: Doppelganger (E) creates illusions to confuse Storm, wasting her abilities and disrupting her control. Devious Exchange (F) allows Loki to avoid Storm’s crowd control and reposition safely.
Luna Snow: Absolute Zero (Right Click) freezes Storm, stopping her abilities and zoning tactics. Fate of Both Worlds (Q) provides healing and damage boosts, countering Storm’s sustained pressure.

Lightning Vortex (Right Click): A strong area-of-effect attack that deals heavy damage to grouped enemies. Spread out to avoid taking unnecessary damage.
Cyclone Control (Q): Creates a damaging windstorm that disrupts enemies’ movement. Stay out of its range to minimize its impact.
Tempest Barrier (Passive): Grants Storm added sustain and damage reduction. Use burst damage to eliminate her quickly.

Disrupt Her Setups: Use stuns, slows, or knockbacks to stop Storm from controlling the battlefield.
Spread Out: Avoid clustering together to minimize the effects of her area damage abilities.
Apply Sustained Pressure: Storm relies on controlling space. Force her to reposition and keep her on the defensive.
