Picking one of these heroes into the other often comes down to what your draft needs rather than seeking a direct counter. Mars has a clear plan for dealing with a slippery target like Templar Assassin. Arena of Blood provides the hard lockdown needed to prevent her from blinking or melding away, while Bulwark naturally reduces the impact of her heavy physical attacks. However, Templar Assassin has her own answers. Refraction can completely absorb the damage from a Spear and Rebuke combo, allowing her to either escape or turn and fight. The outcome of their duels frequently depends on who gets the jump and whether key spells land or are avoided.
