One of the best counter-picks to Lady Sun in the farm lane is Consort Yu.

Consort Yu can easily defeat her in terms of damage output thanks to her skill kit.

Oak Bolt is a powerful skill shot that deals insane Physical Damage, and her ultimate, Valuting Shot, gives her a massive boost in Attack Speed to deal Basic Attack damage.

Lady Sun is a hero who relies on positioning and dealing continuous damage from a distance, but Cai Yan can disrupt this with her incredible healing abilities and effective area-of-effect crowd control.

Healing Hymn and Tune of Tranquility allow Cai Yan and her allies to heal up and survive the marksman’s burst damage. Her second skill, Earworm, is a crowd-control skill that bounces between nearby enemies, which makes positioning hard for the enemy hero.

When taking continuous damage from the marksman, Cai Yan also restores health and gains Movement Speed because of her Can’t Touch This passive.

Liang

Liang is an Honor of Kings mage with skills that allow him to lock down enemies with stuns, slows, and periodic damage. His ultimate, Power Word – Control, suppresses opponents, making them an easy target for his allies.

Liang is a strong counter to Lady Sun because this crowd control spell can completely shut down her mobility, preventing her from positioning herself safely to deal damage. He neutralizes the marksman’s effectiveness in team fights, as she is unsafe whenever Liang is present.

More than the mage’s ultimate, he also has Power Word – Barrier which summons barriers and stuns enemies who make contact with it.
