    Im curious how people handle deflect champs 1v1. Personally i just go head on with them and take the damage...but i see other methods all the time. Im just curious what are some other strategies?

    Use an resist/immune/eater to resist or absorb the damage.

    If I cannot redirect it, I'll try to either direct it to a unit with Combat Awareness(takes zero dmg) or place a relic. My BGs don't often feature this but champions with immunity or resistance to the type of dmg or type of attack (arrow eater) to be deflected are also a good option.

    You can also think ahead and position summons/fodder to take the dmg.

    Lastly, even at top levels people usually do not target - deflect allowing me to clear it with a weak attack such as a PoV or similar.

    The most common trick if you can't prevent the damage yourself (such as from combat awareness or deflect) is to use a relic or summon to soak up the damage, as was mentioned above. If you have other champions, you may still want to attack with the weakest one first.

    I use any illusions or summons I have as a first resort, if that's not available I try to use a less damaging attack like mudsling or something to proc it.

    I use cheat commands to disable the ability, then tell my opponent that "it's a known bug."

    Ease up, Mr. Chin. I found you once, I can do it again.

    Why not crash their game so you win right away? And later post a thread about how the server is lagging and there has to be 5 hour downtime. But of course then it becomes a 10 hour downtime. Seems like a better idea...
