Sup peeps ..

Alright, i keep getting raped by Katarina, i honestly have NO CLUE on how to counter her ..
I stack MR, but he ******** ulti still tears my whole team apart ..
It seems like, if Katarina is in the right hands, she's unstoppable ..

So, all of you pro people in here, how can i put this b**** down ?

I wish Roofies was an item, i'd get it everytime ..

Blitzcrank.

But seriously you want heavy stuns/knock-ups/silences/etc. for when she ults, if she can't ult she's basically useless.

I love Katarina (and sorry I have been ripping your teams apart ^^). Katarina is argued as so unviable these days, its not even funny. You want to know why? Because people seem to think she is useless without her ult and some people don't know when to time it right. The main reason is because her ult is one of the easiest to counter in the game. Silence, thats all you need. And make sure your silence person waits to use it on Katarina, even if she doesn't seem to be there. Because you know as soon as that silence is used she is gonna jump out of some random bush and rape what faces you have left.

Yeah okay, don't know why i didn't think of that -_-

Although, if you have some new guy on your team, or some dude that doesn't speak english, i guess it's pretty hard to explain when to use his silence/stun on her ..
I think that's the main problem, other peoples incompetence to be a bit harsh here lol :b

Well i guess that takes care of the problem, i just gotta pick a stunner some more, which suits me really, since i play Udyr a hell of a lot ..

Thanks for the replies :)

Kat is one of the easiest champions to counter.

Any CC shuts down her prime damage source.

Take champions with on-demand hard CC or silences, such as Alistar, Cho'gath, Taric, Sion, Blitzcrank, Janna, Kassadin, Poppy, Anivia, Fiddlesticks, the list goes on.

Also, putting any ranged champion against her in lane will make her laning phase miserable, and she'll feed/get denied.

Your team should try to remain spread out when she's around, and focus her when she shunpo's in. Try to save at least one CC for her ,or else your katarina counter will go down the drain.

Her ult can be disrupted just like Nunu's ult by crowd control such as stun, knock up, pull, etc.

I do quite awesome with Katarina solo against ranged champions. The only people I have met that actually do better than me is one of my best LoL friends using Kennen and against a Ryze that is really really good early game.
