Only by making a new marksman/tank hero can we counter Edith. The villain in the backstory of beatrix, may be the new hero.

You must use her weakness.
It based on her form.

When she not in ulty, she deal low damage. So, any character can kill her in long fight.
When she in ulty form, she lose all defence. So, you may just oneshot her as any burst character.

Her advantage is early, because her early damage is insane. So, if you saw her early ulty in 1v1 just run away. Its like fight against balmond or selena. You just cant.

Also she has a another 2 advantage.
She have a good mobility, that allow her to escape. So, if you will try gank her, block this dash and dont give her retreat. Its like to gank sun and blocck hes staff to deny dash.  
And she have really strong combo against squishy characters. So if you one of them, keep distance and dodge dush in to you(with change direction of you moving). Without hit this dash, she just cant kill you.

The easiest way to counter her is wait for her to ult. She is easily get burst down in her ult form. Focus on dodging her dash, if you get hit, is like getting hit with Tigreal full stun combo. (luckily her dash is shorter) so just keep your distance from her. Her ground smash are mostly guarantee hit if you get caught off guard or her dash connects, else is easy to dodge.

Else if you get stun once, you're 99% dead. So be careful!!

Roger is the best counter for edith.... Bcz if you look at edith's mechanic she needs to lose HP to deal more dmg in her Ult (Marksman) form. And once she uses her ult she gets lots of lifesteal but gets a little squishy. And roger's wolf form deals dmg according to the target's lost hp. Which is perfect for countering edith.
