Review

Ella is the third character that has a counter-type skill that allows her to, you guessed it, nullify enemy skills and counterattack. Still, similar to normal Joo Shiyoon, she can only counter Special type skills and Ultimates still will be ignored.

Compared to Joo Shiyoon, she deals more damage, but it comes at the cost of losing some utility. First of all, she doesn't stun enemies when she counters and only blinds them. Also, she has bigger cooldowns on her skills which means she's even more gear hungry than Shiyoon. She has longer attack range meaning she will be more focused on countering skills that affect backlines.

Sadly, PVP is full of awakened characters and the counter doesn't work on them making it hard to use her to her full potential, so she's mostly used for dealing with Levia Tanis.

Pros & Cons
Pros

- counter!

- great single target damage.
