He has powerful trades and his E makes him really hard to hit with your full combo. You want to play passively and wait for the teamfights.You can also roam to help bot.
Zed
I personally find Zed really hard to counter, he can poke from the distance and has a lot of burst damage with Ignite at level 6. He can dodge your combo with his W. Wait for mid/late game and teamfights, and you'll be better than him. You can also roam to help bot.
Vladimir
His W makes him nearly impossible to kill in early game, if he wastes it, you can go all in. His late game scaling is really strong so you have to shut down him in mid game during fights ( You can counter his healing with Kata's 60% healing reduction on R )
Yasuo
One, in my personal opinion, of the hardest matchups. His W can deny your Q and R, and his E makes a good Yasuo nearly impossible to hit with your Passive. Play safe and try to help your botlane, in teamfights try to look at his windwall to avoid it.
Ahri
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in.

Aurelion Sol
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in.
Orianna
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in. Her early damage is insane, so you'll have to dodge all her QW combos.
Akali
Her W can deny your combo, but your R still hit her while invisible. She's stronger than you in early, but you can kill her 1v1 at level 6 if you are able to bait her W.
Anivia
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in.
Cassiopeia
Her W that makes you grounded is a big problem. Her damage are really good when she's able to get her Q off. You have to dodge her Qs and try to bait her W, and remember to turn around when you think she's gonna use her R.
Diana
Diana is really strong, her trading potential with her basic combo QEW is really high. She will always beat you in 1v1 (not if she trolls) so you'll have to roam and wait for teamfights to get some kills.
Ekko
His Passive damage is really high, so you have to dodge his Q and then go for trades, always dodge his W and try to force him to use his R without risking too much. Once he builds Lichbane and Protobelt he will always kill you. In teamfights try to apply your 60% healing reduction with R so that he doesn't heal much from his R.
Galio
Pratically unkillable, his damage are high and he's really tanky. You can't trade him so you have to roam bot and wait for teamights, always try to dodge his taunt.
Irelia
This matchup depends on Irelia skill level. A bad Irelia is really easy to beat, but a good Irelia is a big problem for Katarina. Always dodge her E and try to bait her R and dodge it using your E. If she's good she'll dodge every dagger you place with your Q, so you'll have to outsmart her. Don't try to trade her when she has full stacked passive and Conqueror, because their damage combined are really high.
Kassadin
His magic damage reduction and his magic shield makes him really hard to kill. He's weak in early to try to go for early trades, but remember that the most part of your damage has to come from AA ( try to reset them with your E ). He can stop your R with his Q, so try to bait it before. His RWQ trade at level 6 is really strong, so try not to stay in his R range.
LeBlanc
She's a really flashy champion, she can easily bait your daggers and her QW damage is really high, try to play slow to predict where she's going to go with her W and dodge her QW combo with your E. If she does a full combo with R at 6 and you were able to dodge her abilities, you can try to all in on her, because without her W she's really weak.
Lissandra
You can't go in any time, if you try to go on a dagger she'll just WQ AA you and proc Electrocute. Avoid her Q poke damage and if you want to fight her, make sure it's an all in because you'll lost every trade.
Malzahar
He will just push waves really hard and stay under tower. You can't dive him because of his R, so roam bot and wait for fights. During fights, try to go in when he wastes his ult.
Qiyana
Her early damage is really high with her combo EQ(ice)AAWQ(wall) so you have to either stay away from her, or dodge her combo. At 6, if you're able to dodge her combo, you can go all in.
Ryze
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in. His combo EWQ with Phase Rush makes him nearly unkillable because of his speed.
Taliyah
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in.
Veigar
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in.
Twisted Fate
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in.
Vel'Koz
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in.
Xerath
All of the mages are really easy to counter, you just have to dodge their CCs with your E or wait for them to waste it, to then go all in. He is nearly unkillable because of his range, but if he gets close and you dodge his E, it's a free kill. (care for Barrier )
Talon
His WQAA+ Passive damage is REALLY high, so dodge his W. After you dodge it you can all in ( before 6). After 6 you have to dodge W and then, when he ults, E away on your minions, so that you can engage him again shortly after.
Corki
His W his a really good escape. You probably won't be able to kill him, so try to roam and join early fights, his late game damage is really high so you either have to target him or avoid him during fights.
