If he has to many stacks on his passive, do not fight him! Else go ahead. If you decide that you can kill him, try to do it with red smite and when you have ultimate up, he has a really strong early game now with PTA and his fighting counters alot of the dashes that you have, do not get caught close to walls so he can burst you with Q. If you miss Q, he will beat you flat out in a 1v1
Kha'Zix
Out of the meta but he is getting back, he is not viable to play against you, he is easy to beat when you get R. Do not let him snowball. If you get isolated, you will die. Ask your teammates to help if he invades, he does more damage than you in early if he plays correctly.
Jax
Avoid getting stunned, easy kill before 6, try to snowball before he gets his powerspike at 6. He is a ticking time bomb.
Xin Zhao
Really hard to play against, he will jump on you if you escape and he does more damage, try to counter gank as much as possible.
Rengar
I have seen many people having problems playing lee into rengar but I have no problem, in my opinion you have the advantage against him! If you int, you will loose, so do not make to many misstakes, likewise with Kha. He is pretty easy to counter gank before 6 as he only have gank possibilities through his passive(bushes).
Fiddlesticks
He should not be a problem, interupt his r if possible! Invade as much as possible, he will run out of mana without his blue so take advantage of that! Do not get caught in his jungle as he is a pain in the ass to escape from if his laners roam better than yours. If you can take his blue level 1 from an invade he should not be able to invade your blue if you ask your bot lane/top laner to be ready to roam/ward.
Kindred
If she gets help with marks you will have a hard time to contest, you are typically better than her in the early but if she has a good team she will be able to snowball hard af. Your R beats her hard when you can kick people out of her ultimate. Also abuse her when you hit your powerspike at 6!
Yorick
This is impossible, usually was my counterpick towards people picking lee sin, you can not duel him nor trade him, do not focus to much on farming, you should keep ganking as much as possible and hopefully you will be able to snowball. Do not counter jungle if you do not see him on the other side of the map, he will melt you in a 1v1 with ghouls and especially maiden
Camille
This is a fair match up, both have good early ganks, she scales alot better than you but she is kind of squishy, one good ult and she will be dead if she is not to far ahead. Late game you can kick her out of her ulti if she ulties you or your teammates, so abuse that as much as possible at level 6 and forward.
Udyr
Same as with yorick, do not fucking fight!=!=!=!=!= He beats your ass if you do not gank alot and snowball through that, if it is a good udyr he will keep invading your jungle, and you should not contest to much if you do not feel comfident enough. If you see him ganking alot, you just have to farm, that sounds weird on a lee sin as he is seen as a early game jungler, but if you full clear a couple of times, you can gain up to a 2 level advantage, that is usually what I will do against the hard match ups like udyr, yorick and trundle.
Evelynn
I have a hard time facing every evelynn because even if I kill her 5 times so she is so far behind that there should not be any possibilities of her coming back, she will still get fed because many people do not know how to play against her.
Shyvana
Tell your bottlane to keep an eye out for early dragons, especially if it is a infernal dragon. You have no problem to fight her pre 6 and her first clear is pretty bad right now in the current meta as her E heal got nerfed.
Master Yi
Be aware, if it is a good Yi you can have some problems, especially if they have a support mid laner who he will gold funnel with(not that big of a problem any more but it still happens), otherwise you have your r which is a very good tool against him, red smite is also very good against his r and his damage. If he snowballs you can say goodbye to your elo. Very risky.
Warwick
I find Warwick to be very easy to fight, just because I have alot of experience on Lee sin as I know how to engage and re-engage efficiently, he can be very hard against lower elo players as he is a very nobrain champ in many situations
Shaco
A good Shaco is very hard to play against, he will take your camps and he will clear his jungle fast, if he is not a otp whit 1000000 mystery points he will be pretty easy to beat as he is very squishy.
Trundle
He beats you in all stages off the game, possibly not right after level 6/7. Just farm and try to snowball through counter ganks. When he goes PTA you will get shreded because of the extra damage you take after the full stack on you, and he can cancel your jumps with his E, so be cautious when you engage and re engage, do it when his E is on cooldown.
Hello, I am a Lee Sin main with 250k+ mastery score. I play alot of champs and that is why my champion score could be higher, but it is without a doubt my highest mystery score on any champion right now. I play on the EUW servers in Diamond 4.
First clear
First clear
I start red then go to the opposite scuttle (differs from what side you start on). If you have an hard cc level 1 comp, I usually try to force a free invade on their bottom side of the map. Even in higher elo people might be out tabed nor they do not pay attention to ward certain spots and it can really pay off if you get a early kill. This might cause you to start at blue, so you do not waste to much time to rush towards your red, then you just do the same clear but with the blue instead, so blue, opposite scuttle.
If you feel comfident after the scuttle, you could invade their enemy junglers buff where you are, as most people start on the bottom side of the map(better leash from 2 people than 1), if you face a kayn or something like that, he will probably be kinda low on hp when he is on their blue/red buff. Else you just clear your other buff and consider to gank an overextended lane, else you keep farming.
