Celeste Counters
Who counters Celeste in Deadlock? Heroes Celeste is strong against and heroes it struggles against, ranked by win rate over recent matches.
Squishier laners like Sinclair, Mina, and Silver hate trading against Celeste because she punishes anyone who has to commit to close range or windup their damage, and she can peel out of a bad trade before it lands. The trouble comes against Seven, Victor, and Graves, who bring the kind of sustained burst and pickoff pressure that catches Celeste mid-rotation and doesn't let her reset. Once she's forced into a straight brawl with those heroes, she folds. Draft tip: pick her into fragile short-range lineups, avoid her when the enemy has hard burst that ignores her escape.
Celeste wins 51.96% of matches overall (#10 of 38 heroes) since the Matchmaking Update. Its most favorable matchup is Mirage at 57.84%; Victor is the toughest counter, holding Celeste to 45.12%.
