FREJA HERO COUNTERS
Freja pokes from range with Revdraw Crossbow and uses Quick Dash plus Updraft to stay mobile. She has no hard counters at the 10.0 matchup level, which makes her well-rounded but not unstoppable. Hitscan heroes track her aerial movement. Roadhog hook catches her during Updraft's predictable arc. She burns both movement cooldowns (Quick Dash and Updraft) to escape dives, and without them she's grounded with just a crossbow.
Freja's top counters are Mercy, Kiriko, and Cassidy.

Freja doesn't have any dominant single counter, but Roadhog, Sigma, and Cassidy all give her problems. Roadhog hook catches her mid-Updraft when the arc is predictable. Sigma Accretion stuns her out of Quick Dash, and his barrier blocks crossbow bolts. Cassidy Magnetic Grenade tracks her aerial position and the slow grounds her.
Freja sits at D Tier right now with a 46.2% win rate and 3.9% pick rate across all ranks. Below average in the current patch. You can still win with Freja but the meta favors other damages.
Track both movement cooldowns. Quick Dash and Updraft are Freja's survival tools. She uses them aggressively to reposition but if you bait both, she's stuck at ground level with a crossbow and no escape for several seconds. Hitscan also tracks her aerial path better than she can dodge.
Crossbow has travel time. At range, targets who strafe dodge Revdraw bolts. Take Aim explosive bolt is powerful but requires slowing down to charge, making her vulnerable. Bola Shot ultimate wraps one target but is a single-target ult in a game where most team-fight ultimates hit multiple enemies.
Roadhog hook during Updraft is a death sentence because she's in a predictable arc. Sigma barrier blocks crossbow bolts and Accretion knocks her out of aerial movement. Domina barrier segments cut off the angles Freja wants to play from the air.
Cassidy Magnetic Grenade slows her mid-air and Peacekeeper finishes. Ashe scoped shots track aerial crossbow duels favorably. Bastion Assault mode shreds her before Take Aim bolt charges. Sombra hack grounds her by stripping Quick Dash and Updraft.
Lucio Speed Boost helps teammates dodge crossbow bolts at range. Mizuki Binding Chain tethers Freja during Updraft and pulls her trajectory down. Baptiste Amplification Matrix doubles hitscan damage against her aerial movement.
