Updated on September 26, 11:10 a.m. (GMT+8): Improved relevancy based on the hero’s latest revamp.

How does one defeat the strongest demon in the Land of Dawn?

Alice, The Queen of Blood, is a unique mage hero in the sense that unlike most who need to deal damage from afar, she gets stronger the more enemy heroes surround her. She can teleport in and out of a team fight with Flowing Blood and set up clutch plays with Blood Awe.

Her ultimate, Blood Ode, sends her into a frenzy as she deals damage and heals HP with every enemy hero and minion caught in its area of effect. The ultimate lasts until Alice runs out of Mana or the skill is cast again.

This makes her a tanky hero in the later stages of the game and one of the best team fight initiators. If you find yourself up against Alice, these three heroes are all you need to stop the demonic threat from dominating your ranked game.

3 hero counters to Alice in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang

Karrie

Karrie is an excellent counter to Alice in the gold lane. This is due to her ability to deal True Damage, which directly negates the Queen of Blood’s sustain and tankiness.

Karrie’s passive, Lightwheel Mark, allows her to apply True Damage after landing consecutive Basic Attacks or skills on an enemy. This ignores the enemy’s defenses, making it difficult for her to survive for long, especially in the late game.

Another key factor is Karrie’s high mobility — Phantom Step lets her dash in and out of combat. The marksman can effectively kite the enemy mage, constantly repositioning to avoid being caught or locked down.

In addition, Karrie’s high attack speed and damage output disrupt Alice’s ability to recover health, pressuring her heavily in fights.

Lylia

If you’re a mage main who’s looking to counter Alice, Lylia is the right hero for you. Her high burst damage and mobility neutralize the Queen’s sustain and close-range combat style.

She excels at dealing heavy burst damage quickly with her skill, Angry Gloom, which amplifies damage the more bombs she leaves on the field.

This is important when going up against the enemy mage, who depends on her durability and lifesteal to stay alive in extended fights.

Moreover, the Little Witch’s mobility through her skill Shadow Energy and her ultimate Black Shoes allows her to outmaneuver the opponent easily. Alice relies on closing gaps with Flowing Blood to initiate fights, but Lylia can use Black Shoes to rewind to a previous position and regain health and mana.

Julian

Julian’s burst damage, crowd control, and sustain make him a perfect counter to Alice. His ability to immobilize her, deal damage from a safe range, and heal himself gives him the upper hand in both one-on-one duels and team engagements.

Julian’s burst potential makes it difficult for the Queen to stay alive long enough to heal through her ultimate, Blood Ode.

His enhanced skill combinations, such as Scythe, can deal significant burst damage, while his enhanced Chain can immobilize the target, preventing her from moving freely. This crowd control is critical, as she relies on her mobility from Flowing Blood to initiate fights and sustain herself in battle.

Another reason the Scarlet Raven counters the mage? He has the ability to play at mid-range, where he can consistently poke her without getting too close. His ranged abilities, particularly his enhanced Sword and Scythe, allow him to keep his distance while still dealing significant damage.
