start with the longsword or start with the dark seal which is best??

Long sword is better for aggression at level 3 all in and generally the prefered option - dark seal is good for wave control and when you go electrocute - electrocute + dark seal early is solid.

Thanks a bunch man, means a lot.

Still a lot of matchups videos to be done, but that's why we have threat levels for now to explain how to beat the champions :)

Greeting Elnino9, i wanted to say that i really like this guide im not new to league so i know which champ can one shot every one in enemy team and one of those champs are kata i love to play katarina specialy because of dashes other stuff is awesome i love guide keep making guides like this i wanted to ask you about matchup vs veigar?.

Thanks for checking the guide out man.

Against Veigar - Play aggressive pre level 6. If he uses his Q to farm, play aggressive as he walks up to last hit CS. Juke his other abilities if he cages you in. He's very squishy so punish his weak early, he will most of the time over-extend for CS to stack his Q.

I wonder how you deal ahri because she can one shot you ( and as soon as she gets 1 or 2 kills, it's over. Even under turret, it's hard to not get poked to death) and easily interrupt your ult. I would put her in the hard counter section.

elnino9 (11) | October 12, 2018 12:28pm
I'm creating an ahri Matchup video relatively soon, She is not a high threat level compared to other champions but she is elusive and her triple dashes can avoid your daggers with relative ease, however when you have Gunblade and aren't even with her, you one shot her before she is able to escape.

I have the video footage for it already but if you want a brief explanation on dealing with Ahri:

Careful when you CS because she will Q you, she will try to go for pokes. Use Shunpo if you need to avoid skillshots or step back. Dodge her E and Q and try to take as little poke in lane as possible. You can play aggressive when her charm is on CD. She's open to an all-in when her E is on CD, she's vulnerable without it. She can kite you at 6 and avoid daggers, becareful when you're low HP because she'll have 3 dashes and she could kill you.

I really liked this guide, I am pretty new to the game and when she was avalible in the free rotation I checked this guide to learn her combo's so that I atleast know what to expect when I am up against her in a game.
The fact that you take the time to show things multiple ways, aswell as to explain stuff that an more adapt person may skip past really helped me alot understanding and quickly picking things up.

(I have been playing for roughly 6-8 months so am still learning basic things it feels like) This guide felt complete and like I was actually picking up what Katarina wants to do, instead of it being just another run-over without actually guiding me.

Thanks a lot for the kind words, and I'm glad the guide helped you out! I'm honoured to be able to share my experiences with Katarina and give people a good introduction to the champion as a whole. Thank you!

Alnino, I have trouble playing against yasuo any tips?
1
elnino9 (11) | March 23, 2017 1:14am
Against Yasuo it is mainly the laning phase that needs the most attention, as he has a strong level 2 with his E, and has good wave control because of it.

the Ideal way to play against Yasuo is to stay away from minions as he can gap close to you pretty easily, fight him with his 3rd Q is down or he just used it, early on he doesn't have the attack speed to get 3rd Q quickly as he would later on in the game.

He has 0 mobility without minions, choose fights when there are no minions around him. He hates that A LOT.
