How to Counterpick

[quote=PsiGuard][[Kennen]] and [[Veigar]] are my favorite counter-picks to [[Akali]]. Ken gets pretty tanky with [[Abyssal Scepter]] and [[Zhonya's Hourglass]], and can easily use ALL of his spells even on cloaked targets. Like Akali, he doesn't rely on mana and can stay in lane as long as he has health. Veig does crazy damage to AP champions and may be able to burst down Akali before she can do any serious damage. Like Lugi said, [[Event Horizon]] will often force passive play or even a [[Flash]]. A counter-pick guide would be cool. I would definitely read it if it was well made.[/quote]

[quote=Mowen]Well this guy is working on a guide on the matter in the Theory Crafting section, and he already has a lot of input you can read. http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/forum/theorycrafting/mobafire-lend-me-your-wisdom-comprehensive-counter-pick-guide-8574 The best way to think about it is: "Why is this champ so good?" "What champ negates this quality?"[/quote]

[quote=TheJohn][quote=Lugignaf] Ofc I was. It wasn't free week... <_< [/quote] Keep in mind that theres no good Akali, neither free nor not. Even I aint a master, I play well, but not that good yet.[/quote]

[quote=ZioSerpe][[Cassiopea]] and [[lee sin]] and [[brand]] counter akali [[master Yi]](jungle) and [[Vladimir]] and [[caitlyn]] counter [[morgana]] [[Master Yi]] and [[warwick]] and [[malzahar]] counter [[singed]] These few examples. If you wanna win follow #1 lol rule and pick morde he's numero 1[/quote]

[quote=Bryun]Stay within the [[Veigar]]'s [[Event Horizon]] when you're using [[Twilight Shroud]] and you're good to go, right after that cast [[Veigar]] has no way to stop you for a decent while until it's back up, so I usually harass/kill [[Veigar]] in those periods of time forcing him to play defensively. OT: [[Lee Sin]] rapes [[Akali]], [[Brand]] is also a good pick, but it'd be weird not to mid with him, and for [[Akali]] not to solo top. EDIT: Also [[Garen]] if he silences & spins 2 win before you can shroud, you will have a really hard time vs. him.[/quote]
