Everyone is complaining about Thorn being a 2 shot headshot with the burn effect which you can easily counter with Suros or Red Death. But they keep forgetting that there is the Hawkmoon which 2 shots you directly and there's no way to counter it. Just wanted to express this frustration I get when someone is using the Hawkmoon and complains about Thorn being a 2 headshot kill.

Thorn isn't easily countered. In fact red death and suros hardly counter it at all. The healing stop if you take damage over time so unless you kill him as soon as the burn effect stops it won't matter. It will only stop the burn which usually won't matter because 3 body shots kill you or if he does tag your head twice he's in cover. Not to mention suros has a garbage kill time and red death is actually pretty good but still falls short of thorn. So no basically the only counter to thorn is being better than the user
