You should change Brand vs Kassadin. Let me explain:

When you play Brand against Kassadin, you CAN counter him. Its quite difficult and you need to be experienced player (I also recommend to play with smart casts against Kassadin - that needs also playing smart and being experienced a bit). Before level 6 you can zone him with your E, he can't be dangerous to you. After reaching level 6, stay a bit back but in range of his R+Q+W combo. Spam your abilitties if needed to stack his W and to make him sure that he "can" attack you. When he will decide to do so, he will start with his R. It makes noise before he will really teleport, you also can see that he stops for a while. When you see that he is just about to Riftwalk before you, use your E+Q on area where he needs to Riftwalk to have you in his Qs range. He Riftwalks just into your E+Q combo, then use your W. Sometimes he will have enough time to use his Q before you land stun on him, then you will trade about 1/6 of your hp for about 2/3 of his hp. If he will really Riftwalk just into stun, he won't do anything to you. Good player who can play Brand well is counter for Kassadin. He can't kill you and you can farm. maybe you will loose some ranged minions... But thats much better then getting owned by Kassadin like almost all other mid champs are.

BTW upvoted, GJ mate.

For greaves i think Armor/magic Pen would be a great counter item since his passive gives him bonus armor/MR while in combat. This is the whole reason he is so hard to lane against in a duo lane.

Amumu should be a counter for Cho'Gath. He has high enough health, able to tank Feral Scream, Rupture and Feast even in a combo. He also has Despair which goes of % of max health, and has a gap closer that can be aimed when Cho'Gath is using Rupture, as the animation requires Cho to stay still. Vorpal Spikes also proc Amumu's Tantrum passive.

I was also thinking of Lux as a Xerath counter, as Lux's range is pretty damn long, and her skillshots will hit. Even though none of the CC's actually work (slows/snares) if Xerath is in Locus, the damage still applies and the range of Lux's ult is even beyond Xerath's. Her shield can also block early game harass.

I'd also like to add in the fact that normal kiting doesn't work on Singed. It requires a certain amount of damage and movement reduction on Singed to kite him, as he is tanky. Singed would just use his Mega Adhesive behind you, preventing you from kiting. he would then proceed the run circles around you. Mega Adhesive is one of the best slows in the game, so Singed can play that game too. Teemo still applies though, as he can just drop a mushroom to slow you enough to get out of the Mega Adhesive, then just run with Move Quick.

i am actually kinda this very useful.

Thank you jhoijhoi, Keondre, LaCorpse, The_Nameless_Bard, Arcana3, Hogopogo, eddie199, Xiaowiriamu, and JEFFY40HANDS for the spectacular sigs!

Irelia Guide: Irelia - She Likes You :)

It's a pain in ther *** to look all the characters in order to see a character's counter. If you could put also the ones who get countered by the character in the same place it would be much more easy.

Thank you for your effort.

Yo Slappiz, please add Fizz to Fiora counters. You just can't auto attack him and his Playful/Trickster cancels the Fiora ult.

Will the author be adding a Darius section anytime soon?
