Natalia is a nightmare for all marksmen, including Irithel. With the stealth of her passive skill, Natalia can approach undetected and instantly deal high burst damage.

Once Natalia emerges from the shadows and attacks, Irithel barely has time to escape. Even Irithel's powerful ultimate is useless if Natalia attacks first.

Here's a tip: you can let Natalia roam to control the map and find the right moment to ambush Irithel in the lane or jungle. Once hit by Natalia's silence and basic attacks, Irithel is guaranteed to disappear!

Freya

Freya Freya is a hero who can immediately dive into the backline and lock Irithel down with her stun combo. When Freya activates her ultimate, she becomes incredibly powerful and difficult to take down, while Irithel clearly doesn't have enough sustain to last long in close combat.

Use the combo of skill 2 + skill 1 + ultimate to immediately jump and stun Irithel. Once Freya gets in, Irithel won't have time to escape because her crowd control duration is quite long.

Freya is very suitable to use if you play in the EXP lane and want to be an initiator who focuses on chasing the enemy backline.

Kagura

If you like playing mages, Kagura could be the perfect counter to Irithel. With the combination of Seimei Umbrella Open and Rasho Umbrella Flee, Kagura can attack from a safe distance while also escaping Irithel's counterattacks.

Furthermore, her ultimate combo can make it difficult for Irithel to move and lose her position. Her burst damage is also high enough to finish her off in one hit if the build is complete.

The key to success with Kagura is positioning and timing. Don't hesitate to wait for Irithel to use her ultimate, then counterattack from afar with your deadly combo.

Helcurt

Irithel relies heavily on vision and positioning, so Helcurt is a natural enemy for her. With the Dark Night Falls skill, Helcurt can block the entire enemy team's vision, making it impossible for Irithel to know where the enemy is coming from.

Once the ultimate is activated, immediately jump with Deadly Stinger and silence it. For a short time, Irithel will be unable to counterattack or escape.

In addition, Helcurt also has large burst damage that can immediately finish off fragile marksmen like Irithel in just one combo.

Hayabusa

The last hero who is a counter to Irithel is HayabusaWith his super-fast mobility and shadow clone skills, Hayabusa can easily move in and out of combat without taking much damage.

The Quad Shadow + Ougi: Shadow Kill combo can quickly kill Irithel before she can activate her ultimate. Since Irithel has no escape skills other than her running speed, Hayabusa can maintain pressure from early to late game.

Use Hayabusa to split push and kill Irithel whenever she farms alone. This method is effective for shutting down Irithel's gold and damage output in the mid-game.

Although Irithel has high damage and can attack while moving, she remains vulnerable to heroes with high burst damage, crowd control, or silence. Natalia, Freya, Kagura, Helcurt, and Hayabusa are the best choices for those looking to stop Irithel's dominance in ranked matches.
