Aatrox

Even

Avoid Getting harrased And Traded By Chains And Sweet Spots Of Qs

Akali

Even

Burn Shroud Then Trade/All In

Darius

Even

Better Darius wins Lane, but not always the game.

Fiora

Major

Take Cheesy Runes. AVOID Burning your Hail of Blades or stun to the Parry. Bramble Or Tabi’s Forst Back item.

Gangplank

Even

Recommending the Original Runes but With Second wind instead of Bone Plating.

Dr. Mundo

Tiny

No Seriously. One of the most easiest match ups. Insecure? Take Ignite.

Garen

Minor

Uhhh. I don’t know. You’re not really supposed to lose here. If he tries poke Q. Run. Try to predict his movement so when his Q Runs Out, You Can All-in. Yes! Even While He’s At His E State.

Gnar

Extreme

DON’T. TILT. Keep Your Calm Until He Makes A Mistake. E Him. Trigger Phase Rush. Then You Can Chase After him. Take 3 Rejus And Gnar Runes.

Illaoi

Even

Avoid Getting Poked. She Pulls Your Spirit? All-in her. She Cannot Win an all-in if you’re both even at lane and health.

Irelia

Minor

If She Tries To All-in you or cs, you all-in her. She can’t win against a Lane against a Darius who knows what he’s Doing.

Cho'Gath

Minor

Take Long Fights. Take Advantage of your sustain for him to jot Devour You. By Long Fights I Mean Make The Most out of your cooldowns and bleed duration.

Jax

Even

Avoid getting into very late game and do not AA>W Combo if he’s counterstriking.

Jayce

Major

I personally hate this match up. Just take tanky or cheesy runes, 3 Rejus and you should be just fine to go even or win the lin if he makes some mistakes.

Kayle

Minor

If you take cheesy runes, she’s gonna Have a HUGE delay for her late game potential, Plus, You can kill her before she can kite you. Watch out for the ult clutches Tho.

Kennen

Even

This ****in rat will not win against you if you take Teemo runes + 3 Rejus.

Kled

Even

All in when he’s got no W (Four fast basic attacks).

Malphite

Tiny

Very Ez Lane but, he can still be useful for the enemies for Teamfights.

Malzahar

Extreme

If the enemy has one, take QSS Then Upgrade To Scimitar Later.

Maokai

Even

Annoying but, you win all-ins.

Mordekaiser

Even

Not much to say. Skill match-up.

Nasus

Minor

Avoid Getting Out Macro-ed In-lane. Give him little to no space to stacks. Good late control will delay his stacking prowess.

Nautilus

Minor

Can’t win against a Darius who atleast knows what he’s doing.

Olaf

Even

Better macro wins.

Ornn

Even

Little annoying and frustrating. Keep your calm and all-in while his skills are on cooldown.

Pantheon

Even

Has poke and immunity. Just out position and avoid Qs.

Poppy

Tiny

Ez ****. Destroy buckler and avoid Q and all-in when its right you have a very easy lane.

Quinn

Extreme

Reaaaaaly annoying! Avoid getting poked. Take Gnar or Cheesy rune. You would most likely want to get Gnar Runes For Phase Rush Tho.

Rammus

Tiny

Great match-up for you! Almost impossible to lose.

Renekton

Even

Stay safe when he has enough stacks for a “You can’t trade back trade”. You Have The Upper hand in all-ins but he does have a disengage. Time Your E Well For The 2nd Dash Because, if he uses his first dash and he fails to stun you because of good positioning, he will try to use 2nd dash to out and you interrupt. Even still when he has 2 dashes for escape , wait for the 2nd dash still because after his 1st dash you will most likely reach him IF you are positioned correctly.

Riven

Even

Avoid Getting Dash+Stun Then 3rd Q Animition Cancel Comboed. Cancel 3rd Q with E Then Slow With W Then You’re good since if she uses her shield dash, you can still catch-up since she’s Slowed.

Rumble

Minor

Cheesy Runes + Dorans Shield Will Dump The Rat. Always All-in When You Have Enough Health.

Ryze

Extreme

Really Annoying. Take Teemo Runes. All-in Only When He Makes A Mistake Or If You Have Ghost + Nimbus Cloak.

Shen

Minor

Really obvious. Don’t Fight in the His Circle. You win All-ins straight up.

Singed

Even

Being Tilted Or Too Greedy will make you lose the match-up. You can take normal or Teemo runes. Dorans Shield is more ideal since You Can 1 tick poison then heal.

Sion

Minor

If he tries to poke you with q, All-in the guy. Though tanky, your damage should be just enough.

Swain

Even

Don’t get kited or outpoked.

Sylas

Minor

Hit your combos. Don’t get poked. He can’t all-in you. Take advantage of small mispositionings and you’re good to go.

Tahm Kench

Minor

He’s Guttered but can win the lane if he’s really good at macro.

Teemo

Extreme

I suggest turning off in-game voices then take Teemo runes. ****’em Up when he’s mispositioned or if u have Ghost + Nimbus Cloak while waves are pushed towards you. Take Doran’s Shield. Each tick of poison resets Doran’s Shield’s passive + Second Wind.

Tryndamere

Minor

Just watch out for Ult Clutches.

Udyr

Even

The 2g’s Top is one of the macro based match-ups. Don’t get too Confident and take many Tiger Dots as this will kill you before you can do serious damage to him.

Urgot

Even

Avoid getting poked,disdained, or ulted.

Vayne

Extreme

I have a personal anger for this match-up. I really hate this since she can catch up to you then poke you(Both Passive and Tumble). She has a pushback So She can just push you back then she’s all good. Take advantages of all mispositionings and mistakes. Take Vayne Runes. Don’t Get Tilted. Use E To Pull her If U see her E Animation. Aboid Getting Silver Bolt Proc-ed.
