Frequently asked questions

What is the best card against Fireball?
Skeleton King, with 54.6% wins for the players who had it against Fireball in top games over the last 7 days. Careful: this is a full-game win rate, not a guarantee that the trade goes your way every time.
How are these counters calculated?
We look at every Path of Legends game from the best players where the opponent was running Fireball, and measure the win rate of each card on the other side. No opinions, only results.
Why does a card that doesn't directly counter it show up?
Because a game isn't decided by a single trade. A card can rank high because the decks that play it are simply better against that kind of strategy.
