Best Heroes to Counter

Gatotkaca is a formidable tank and fighter hero in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. Known for his resilience, he stands out with his Steel Bones passive, which significantly boosts his physical defense and allows his basic attacks to regenerate health when he takes damage. This ability makes him challenging to deal with in close-quarters combat.

His ultimate skill, Avatar of the Guardian, grants him the power to leap over great distances and deal substantial damage to a broad area, launching enemies into the air. Despite these strengths, Gatotkaca's effectiveness is heavily dependent on successfully executing his ultimate and enhanced attacks. Opponents with high mobility and skills that counter crowd control can exploit this reliance, managing to evade his powerful moves.

Three Effective Heroes to Counter Gatotkaca in Mobile Legends

Karrie

Karrie excels in dismantling tanky opponents like Gatotkaca. Her high mobility paired with true damage output allows her to be a formidable match against such heroes. By utilizing her Phantom Step skill, she can quickly evade Gatotkaca’s Avatar of the Guardian, ensuring she remains out of harm's way. Following this, deploying the Spinning Lightwheel can slow him, making him more vulnerable. Activating the Speedy Lightwheel allows her to inflict severe true damage thanks to the Lightwheel Mark passive. Maintaining a strategic distance while using Flicker as her battle spell enhances her mobility, further enhancing her tactical advantage. For increased effectiveness, equipping Sea Halberd can be beneficial as it weakens Gatotkaca’s lifesteal abilities. If Karrie is not an option, characters like Granger and Claude can serve as competent substitutes.

Diggie

Diggie proves to be a significant challenge to Gatotkaca due to his ultimate ability, Time Journey. This skill provides immunity to most crowd control effects (barring suppression) and grants a shield to allies. Deploying Time Journey immediately after being hit by Avatar of the Guardian ensures team safety. Once at a safe distance, the Reverse Time skill can keep Gatotkaca under control, while an Auto Alarm Bomb inflicts additional damage. For optimal performance, acquiring items like Fleeting Time, Magic Shoes, and Enchanted Talisman minimizes the cooldown of Time Journey, allowing more frequent use and further safeguarding teammates from Gatotkaca's abilities.

Ruby

For players in search of a hero who can endure against Gatotkaca, Ruby is a superb option. Her exceptional crowd-control capabilities paired with significant spell vamp make her formidable in combat. Skills like Be Good! effectively slow down Gatotkaca and Don’t Run, Wolf King! disrupt his offensive maneuvers. To thwart his escape attempts, Ruby can use I’m Offended! to pull him back into the fray. Leveraging the dash ability provided by her Let’s Dance! passive helps evade Gatotkaca's attacks. Execute is an optimal battle spell to efficiently finish off Gatotkaca when his health dwindles. Procuring items such as Dominance Ice or Sea Halberd reduces his lifesteal capabilities. Should Gatotkaca choose a magical build, Athena’s Shield offers a robust defensive option to counteract his attacks effectively.
