Easy to kite and easy to escape, but its darius so watch out for the hook interupting your E or you are either dead or you will have to burn your ult and flash.
Aatrox
Pretty simple kite him if he tries anything and when he engages just cc him to hell.
Cho'Gath
Pretty tricky with that ult he can eat you before you really feel like you need to back off. And he can do that weird long rage knockup to interupt you and then eat you. STAY AWAY and you should be ok. If you feel he is going to ult you ult him first and get away or kill him.
Dr. Mundo
Stay behind minions and pray that you kill him before 6 before he gets his dumb BS. After 6 just try to stay away if he goes in on you gtfo. After he has used his ult poke him to a thirdish health and do the q r q w q ignite combo and you should kill him.
Fiora
Pretty easy to kite away from when she engages, save your ult for when she ults and either 1 shot her or just leave her ult zone and wait for it to be over.
Jayce
Out pokes you if he can go around waves and has pretty solid engage and a speedup. Try to kite back from him once he goes in and ult him his health shouldnt be able to withstand it.
Jax
This is a pretty even match up, if the jax is good he can mess you up pretty bad if not you can destroy him. Generally you beat him but 1 slip up or if you root him too late you will get wrecked.
Jarvan IV
If you dont eliminate him before level 6 he will destroy you, your best hope if you dont is when he initiates on you with his ult to ult him or yourself as its guaranteed dmg on him, and then try to combo him down.
Kayle
What a pain generally has similar poke and really outscales you late game but you do mess her up early game so bully her as much as you can early game and use your ultimate wisely.
Kennen
Pretty easy stand behind minions and poke him with your qs until you can ult him and kill him. If he ults you can ult him if you feel like you can kill him outright or ult yourself if you need the protection.
Galio
He stings a little but if you are safe he wont be able to do much to you. HURT HIM WHEN HE ENGAGES AND KITE BACK.
Gangplank
Easy peasy you simply win this match up he is anti melee and you are rangedas long as you are sensible and dont fall into his barrels you are pretty much guaranteed this lane.
Garen
Ugh this guy is so annoying! he can use his slow removal stuff to still go in on you as much as he wants, when he does that root him and walk away. He is really annoying becuase he has so much dmg resist and he regens like a god but if you get to 6 you can most likely kill him if you have been poking enough. IF YOU FEEL LIKE HE IS GONNA ULT YOU ULT YOURSELF FIRST. If you ult garen when he ults it will still go through but ulting yourself you should be safe.
Gnar
He is annoying but his passive is his downfall in this matchup, especially at early ranks he will most likely be over confident but once you see him waste an ability if he is low enough dont be afraid to delete him.
Heimerdinger
Your qs go through his turrets for good poke, stay fast on your feet to avoid stuff and when you 6 he is easy to murder.
Illaoi
If the illaoi is bad this is the easiest thing ever, if she is good stay behind minions and pray. You will most likely be able to kill her when you 6 but she is just annoying with her constant BS with the soul pulling.
Irelia
Havent really played against her, but it should be a pretty easy matchup just root her and slow her when she goes in, and she will have no escape if she messes up a q. Approach velocity is really helpful because then she will never get away from you. And with your ult you can cancel any play she nearly makes.
Kled
Root him as much as you can to stop him from messing you up. If he bear traps you E and root him to get away. Otherwise its pretty standard poke him until his stupid lizard gets scared and then just go in and ult him.
Lissandra
As with most double matchups its just whomever is better. Stay away from the back of minions when you know she has her q and dont engage when she has her ult unless you are 100% sure.
Malphite
This guy is so stupid in every matchup. Slow him to hell when he slows you and when he goes in with his ult ult yourself and he will slowly scramble away from you. Awful matchup tho he is just too tanky.
Maokai
Easy peasy he does little dmg and is bad early game and is melee everything you need to be successful.
Mordekaiser
His weirdly sore abilities hurt alot, just stay away until you are sure you can murder him easily.
Nasus
Annoying but doable you will need to stay in your lane most of the game to stop him stacking, but you beat him in most trades.
Olaf
AWFUL MUNDO'S WORSE COUNTER PART. Just try to do what you do in all matchups that are awful try to avoid stuff and if he initiates q w e away and save your ult for yourself unless you know you can kill him.
Ornn
Easy as long as he doesnt get much ganks you win easy peasy. Your ult cancels his and its so easy to kite him.
Pantheon
Stay well back and poke.
Poppy
Resistances are annoying, and poppy does alot of surprising dmg, just try to stay back a little and be careful of walls you should be fine.
Quinn
Could go either way, if they are going sustain adc then you wreck if they are going electrocute burst it might be a little harder. As long as you stay away when harriered and just stay away from her qs youll be fine.
Renekton
Normally he is pretty bad but he is dash heavy all you need to do is root him before he stuns you its pretty alright. Just dont get caught off guard he does a load of dmg.
Riven
Easy you counter her pretty hard, when she dashes at you just root and kite her she wont be able to catch up. I would recommend goling zhonyas second though no doubt about it just in case.
Rumble
Rumble does a tonne of surprising damage, just ult him or yourself when he ults and try to stay back.
Shen
Easy... Thats it. Melee low dmg you know the drill.
Singed
So annoying he is so fast! if he comes near you try to e away as fast as you can and hope that he doesnt ground you.
Sion
Sions a bit dumb at the moment when he has arcane comet, i dont know what to tell you, becuase otherwise its a pretty east matchup if you avoid the minions he chucks at you.
Swain
Should be good if you are awake, avoid his never move and he cant do anything to you.
Talon
Dumb champ with infinate wall jumps, just do the standard root and gtfo if he trys to mess with you and then get him low enough to delete.
Teemo
You dont really auto so his blind is useless, most teemos wont really know what to do since most of them cry when they get anyone that doesnt care about his blind. You can kill him super fast.
Trundle
Slows but so do you and you have a long ranged dash simples if you loose this match up its probably ganks and stuff or you have a habit of staying a bit too long.
Tryndamere
Awful matchup just everything about him is awful. Just try to do the same thing we have spoken about with people like pantheon kite back if he engages and poke and ult him to try and kill him. Remember about his stupid undying and try to take that into account before trying to kill him.
Urgot
Pretty similar to lissandra in range but you should beat him in a trade, be careful of his ult and if he throws you remember you might out damage him and he put you into prime position to do so. Generally has way more guaranteed dmg on you so its a dangerous matchup dont pick liss into him.
Vayne
Ranged with stealth is a pretty bad combo, even so she still has a farily limited range, stay away from walls and q her if she gets too close. You can delete her like everyone else when you 6.
Vladimir
Although he is a little bit annoying with his invulnerability still gets deleted quite quick once he used it. Wait for him to do so and he cant do anything while you lay down the law on him. Just make sure he cant get crimson rush when you engage.
Volibear
Pretty busted at the moment his passive will make it hard to kill him at 6 with your ult. Just kite him and try to proc his passive early. Then he is pretty standard.
Wukong
Stealth high dmg and burst. Be careful and dont be afraid if you feel like he is sneaking around to throw out a q or two to scout out the area. Deleting him should be pretty simple too JUST DONT ACCIDENTALLY ULT THE COPY! Make doubly sure that it isnt the copy or that he cant do the copy as you try to ult him.
Yasuo
Blocks your escape tool and your qs, i dont usually find it hard to deal with yas though. When he engages you can punish him so hard and you proc his passive sooooo easy. make sure that he doesnt force you behind him so that he can stop your e. Otherwise you are good.
Yorick
He is a pain true, but he is fairly simple to deal with. His little minions can proc your q and its not hard to delete him lvl 6 when he gets cocky.
Zed
Your ult negates his XD just poke alot and try not to get too heavily bursted, always save your ult for yourself unless you are 100% sure he doesnt have his or that you are miles ahead of him. But i would recommend rushing hourglass just in case, as the armour doesnt hurt and then you can use your ult on him instead.
Akali
Your ult does fairly well against hers, and she is fairly easy to anticipate. Just do not underestimate her burst. Also when she hits you with her shuriken remember that even when you teleport with your E ability she can follow you with it, so make sure it is off of you before teleporting.
Sett
Can catch you off guard occasionally but generally you outduel him and crush him in lane, be careful for his ultimate pulling you into a jungler.
Blitzcrank
All hooking champs are similar in the fashion that they take a champion to within lissandra's reach so they will never escape.
Thresh
All hooking champs are similar in the fashion that they take a champion to within lissandra's reach so they will never escape.
Pyke
All hooking champs are similar in the fashion that they take a champion to within lissandra's reach so they will never escape.
Alistar
I will only be doing a few synergy picks as the trend is fairly simple to grasp. Anyone with alot of cc generally combo's really well with lissandra. Either with her taking the dmg dealing role and them acting as a barrier or you piling on the cc for others to deal the damage. Alistar is the former.
Amumu
Nunu is the former.
Anivia
Anivia really helps to lock people down.
Akali
Akalli is the latter of the two types, her executes and chases are easy to set up and execute.
Kindred
Kindred really helps infuriate the enemy by stopping you from dying, think of it like you have 3 in-vulnerabilities and during that time you can just throw millions of cc types at the enemy.
Lux
Lux is a mixture of the former and the latter, she sets up the kills with you and helps lock targets down, but you will need to sort of shield her with your cc, so that you can both deal alot of dmg to the person.
Zilean
Zilean for the same purpose as kindred, but he has cc to set up kills with aswell.
Nautilus
All hooking champs are similar in the fashion that they take a champion to within lissandra's reach so they will never escape.

Currently i am in gold after a tough time in season 7 and 8 I flew through the ranks in s10 and decided to stop as soon as i got to gold. Lissandra was a very fun pick for me during season 9 amd 10 with her all in potential and relatively safe kit.
Pro's
Pro's
She is cc QWEN and seems to beat most matchups even if she seems to be countered by them she can outplay people for days. If you take ignite you essentially can guarantee a kill when you level 6 as long as you have been poking them down to half health.
Con's
Con's
She gets countered by people who can dash very quickly and unpredictably, this is because she wont be able to root them and kite back which is her usual tactic. Anyone that stuns or cc's is trouble too because they can stp you from ulting or Eing away. As long as you play safe its fairly easy to win lane against most of these "counters".
Enjoy!
