There's no denying that this is a hero that many teams and players don't want to face. Therefore, you can beat him by using the correct Paquito hero counter.

List of Counter Paquito Heroes for November 2022

Here are five Paquito counter heroes who have a chance to fight against Heavenly Fist in the Land of Dawn.

Alice

The first counter hero to survive and outplay Paquito in a 1v1 situation is none other than Alice. What makes Alice a worthy adversary? He could have escaped Paquito's early game explosion with Flowing Blood or Blood Awe.

Once he reached level four, he could defeat the Heavenly Fist, and maybe even get a few kills with well-timed abilities.

The key when facing Paquito as Alice is staying alive until you have stacked enough Blood Ancestry, and hitting level four to unlock the Blood Ode.

Benedetta

One of the best ways to fight an overpowered hero is to choose another overpowered hero, and Benedetta does just that.

Benedetta also has one of the best early-game kill potential with Phantom Slash and Eye for an Eye. What's more, he thrives in long fights thanks to Alecto: Final Blow which was a game changer against skilled Paquito users.

Helcurt

Paquito is a skill-based hero, so it's very easy for Helcurt to counter against him. Paquito can use basic attacks like Paquito's silent skill against Helcurt.

Apart from that, Helcurt also has damage and deadly skills that make his attacks faster and his movements faster.

Helcurt's attack power focuses on his second skill and this attack is enough to damage enemy heroes. By using the fast movement of skill 1, Helcurt can start the next attack with skill 2, while saving the last attack and the opponent dealing a lot of damage. 

There are two skills that can help him in terms of traveling. Skill 1 and best skill 3. Skill 1 is a flash that can send Helcurt in a predetermined direction.

Then, his best 3 skills can make him run fast, give a dark effect to the opponent, thus making the enemy invisible.

Chou 

Both Paquito and Chou are fighters trained in martial arts to attack their enemies. These two heroes must become rivals. But Chou can counter Paquito, which means Chou has a bit of an advantage.

This is because Chou has high offensive CC and damage. Chou has the skills to back it up as a warrior. He has skills that keep him out of CC. Then from the powerless skill, he supported another body-destroying skill.

Jeet Kune Do's third strike can temporarily knock opponents down. So you have to do the first 2 attacks, then use skill 2 to immobilize your opponent and attack him with skill 1 which silences him. This will make it easier to ambush the opponent instead of following his movements.

Finally, another hero who has the ability to surpass Paquito is Barats. Whenever Paquito unleashes his combo in a team fight, Barats can use Detona's Welcome to stop him.

At max stacks, Barats is able to survive a full combo from Heavenly Punch, especially if he is way ahead in items. Barats is a tough fight in the sidelane, and Paquito is no exception.

Every time Barats and Detona destroy a target, Detona will multiply and gain Physical, Magic Defense and Resilience for 12 seconds, these abilities are for the top 25 stacks. When the Big Guy pack reaches 16 packs, each basic attack will deal bonus damage.
