Counters

  • Trait Disablers, like Wasper, Ingenica, and Madam Fusion, can get rid of Samael's great trait and make him vulnerable to status effects.
  • CDA monsters, such as Al Canine, Sunblast, and Lord Pumpseed, can activate his high cooldowns and cause him to recharge for most of the match. Pierceid excels at this the most, since she has another form of deny (Possession) to control Samael should he able to regain his cooldowns, Reverse Healing to counter Death Moratorium, and True Vision to bypass his Bulwark trait.
  • Monsters with Resurrection Block Trait, like Nikasia, Zeighar, and Sergeant Hull Head, can prevent Samael from using his famous Resurrection skills.
  • Monsters with Reverse Healing, like Yedra, can make Samael's healing skills suicidal.

Trivia

  • Samael is an angel in Jewish lore, often associated with the Devil.
  • Several skills reference viruses associated with historical epidemics: smallpox and influenza (or the flu).
