How do mainstream shooters counter this? The ball-based Hou Yi has strong output but no means of self-protection.

The new season has been updated for a while. After the hero gradient ranking was reshuffled, the trend is stable. The shooter is the core output of the team. Everyone unanimously selected Hou Yi. As the mainstream shooter, his data soared. He finally broke into the top game and the peak game with his stupid shooting. His usage rate is not limited to the middle and low segments. He entered the top three list of hot shooters and his winning rate remained high. Everyone is more curious, how did a stand-and-shoot shooter defeat Gongsun Li, who has multiple displacements, and rise in the S39 season?
Hou Yi's magic ball flow is useful, but no one specifically bans it
The conclusion given by many great players and "data analysts" is that with the attribute advantages and the blessing of the magic ball flow, there are not many people who are suitable for this kind of play, but Hou Yi is one of them, so his performance is very strong and he is on the list. It shows that the news is not groundless and the hero does have his strengths.
Generally, heroes with too high a win rate cannot escape the ruthless knife of the planner. If they are ignored, the players will punish them and throw them into the ban zone. The question is, why does no one ban the shooter who is so scary? Maybe the enemy thinks it is easy to counter. A shooter with no displacement, who can only survive by teammates and positioning, encounters a lineup with frequent control and a highly mobile jungler. Is he sure he can survive? I am afraid that nine lives are not enough to compensate.
Lane options: Di Renjie, Yu Ji
Let's talk about the development road heroes first. Everyone is talking about how Hou Yi can strengthen himself with the magic ball flow. Why not use a chosen one who is truly worthy of the magic ball flow? Di Renjie can be said to be the ancestor of this set of equipment and play style. He is a semi-tank flow, a fast burst flow, and his flexibility is demonstrated by the suit. Then he uses the second skill purification to easily remove the stun of Hou Yi's ultimate skill flying bird. There is still a chance to fight against him. It is correct to choose him for laning. His general attack is smooth and his survival rate is high. When the two stupid shooters compete, will the side with the tank attribute advantage and stable output win? Or will it be the side that rises by economy and superimposes the crazy general work with attack speed? The answer will be revealed after the in-game test.
Another recommended hero is Yu Ji. On the surface, her strength is average, and in fact many teammates don’t know how to use her second skill to avoid damage. The masters can handle her popularity and strength. Her ultimate skill has strong single-target control, her first skill has long-range consumption, and her ability to retain people is strong. The kill can be left to teammates, catching the opponent off guard.
