Best Rek'Sai Counters

Rek'Sai - Void Burrower
Rek'Sai applies Fury/Order pressure that forces opponents to answer threats without losing resource flow.

Matchup Plan
Do not let Rek'Sai pressure happen for free. The deck wants to turn early attacks into a permanent map advantage.
Make each attack cost something. If Rek'Sai has to protect units or defend a battlefield, the pressure curve becomes much less clean.
Mulligan And Early Turns
Keep hands with early bodies and one efficient answer. Slow value hands are risky because Rek'Sai can get too far ahead before value matters.
Your first turns should either block profitably or threaten a battlefield back.
Key Cards And Effects
Cheap blockers, efficient removal, tempo resets, and resilient threats are best. Expensive cleanup is only useful if your early plan survives.
Common Mistakes
Bottom Line
Counter Rek'Sai by making pressure inefficient. Survive the first wave, force defensive spending, and turn the matchup into a real resource fight.
