Ahri is very good against assassin matchups mostly because of her early harass and most importantly her charm. Against this matchup try to go in whenever her charm is on cooldown.
Diana
A tanky mage assassin that can burst you to pieces if you play the lane wrong. Diana's shield can make trades very hard and her Q - E combo is very nasty. Try to trade with her when she is low on mana or has her Q or W on cooldown. If she refuses to use her abilities until you go in just try to get picks with your jungler in other lanes.
Akali
Not very challenging as long as you are winning trades. Play around walls because Akali has no control of where she can go with her E or her ultimate.
Anivia
Anivia is pretty annoying if she lands her skill shots. Start W level 1 and play passive until you hit level 3. Then you can play off of her mistakes. Anivia can make her very own wall for you to ult on so if need be, you can abuse Anivia's wall if she decides to play around it.
Annie
Annie's stun is a major problem and her combos can burst you down. If you don't feel comfortable against her, bring cleanse and try to just play for picks around the map.
Aurelion Sol
You won't see him often so it shouldn't be a problem. Don't underestimate his damage and if you are fighting him just stay in in his circle and you should be fine.
Azir
Another champ you won't see often. His harass early game is pretty annoying and he scales pretty well, but you pretty much out damage him. You can also use his ultimate as a wall for your ultimate so keep that in mind.
Brand
Just don't get out traded by him early game and you should be good. Brand has some super annoying poke early game and his 6 makes duels very 1 sided but as long as you can CC him before he CCs you than you are good.
Cassiopeia
Don't get stuck in her W because you cannot use your E or W, losing any mobility to gap close her. If you are good enough you can predict her ult just try to weave your champ so that she turns around at the time Cassiopeia. If you can't do this just walk in her face and if she uses it in fear of your power than just go in the next time she steps up.
Corki
I don't think anyone really plays this champ. Just don't underestimate his damage.
Ekko
Just make sure you are ahead of him and you will be good. Level 3 you can kill him all the way until he has his 6. If you get ahead before that then his 6 will be a useless power spike.
Fizz
Invulnerability is a very rare ability on a champ and Fizz happens to have one. Building a hexdrinker will not hurt you and just try to trade when his E is down.
Galio
He is a tank. There is not much I can say about that... If you can just survive early and try to get ganks from your jungler than you will be fine. You can always roam but be careful because Galio has a pretty good global ult.
Heimerdinger
Don't get harassed early and you will be fine. Abuse the heck out of your grass element.
Kassadin
You can either force him to push the wave and he gets ganked by your jungler or you can push in and harass him until he is forced to recall and lose XP. The first option is the most viable since the Kassadin wants you to push into him so he can play safe under turret.
Katarina
Depending on how you play this matchup it is pretty easy. Ping whenever she is missing and try to let her push into you so she can get ganked by your jungler. You can also just push her into her own turret so she looses CS. Just be aware that you are pushed in and you are exposed to a gank.
LeBlanc
Has a very strong harass early game and can kill you very early if you get poked down too much. Just play until level 3 and then you can try to out trade. If you can't, go roam and look for picks.
Lissandra
Don't engage on her almost ever. Her ultimate and her E can make the lane very annoying. Try roaming or ask for ganks.
Lucian
Very one sided early game just play safe until you have dirk and you will have the ability to burst him down.
Lux
The only problem is Lux's CC and her early game poke. Just get to level 3 and you can win lane then.
Malzahar
Very irritating ult that can make the game very one sided. Build a quick silver sash into this matchup and you will be fine. You win fights against him before he hits 6.
Neeko
Don't play around minions and use W to dodge skill shots. If she can't land her abilities she is vulnerable.
Orianna
Has very annoying poke. Play as far away from her ball and try to CC her to death before she can ult you.
Ryze
Just don't get hit by his CC and you are good.
Seraphine
Has very annoying poke but pretty much loses when you hit level 3.
Sylas
Just like Diana, Sylas is a tanky mage that has a built in heal in his kit. just try to hit level 3 and ask for ganks. Sylas can get ahead really quickly off of one kills so try not to die.
Syndra
Very good poke early game and has a CC. Try to engage when you know her W is down.
Taliyah
Be careful with Taliyah's early poke it can be very dangerous and is very strong since you are a melee. Her E can be popped if you do any dashes on it so be careful if you are standing on it. Other than this you can easily burst her down.
Talon
Don't let him out trade you and you will be fine.
Twisted Fate
Pretty OP global ult and has the stupid stun card. Just be aware of ganks and play around his cards. If it is on cooldown then you can kill him.
Veigar
Just play around his cage. If it is down it is a free kill.
Vel'Koz
Has some annoying poke just make sure to not get stuck in his combos.
Viktor
An assassin stopper. His W stun makes it easy for him to stay away from you and a great way for him to do a full combo and kill you. Try not to engage if his W is up.
Vladimir
Can be tuff if you are being out traded. Just try to kill him when he has his abilities down.
Xerath
Start W and you can almost always dodge his abilities. If you are having trouble go into a practice game with a friend and just let him play Xerath and learn the matchup.
Yasuo
Very annoying if not handled correctly. Yasuo's wind wall is very irritating and it is best if you ask for a gank if you don't have good matchup experience.
Yone
Even if you beat him his ult is insanely broken. Try to play when his ult is down or if you have flash up. If those two things aren't up then just try to CC him to death.
Zed
If positioned correctly, Zed can just W out of your ultimate. If Zed gets ahead he will be able to kill any time so try to not let him get ahead and you will be fine. Just play for picks and if Zed is vulnerable then you can kill him.
Ziggs
Literally a troll pick against Qiyana.
Zoe
Don't let her sleep you and you are fine. Zoe is verry squishy so you can just CC her to death.
Diana
Having the capability to pull everyone in can make it really easy to hit a clean ultimate with Qyiana.
Gnar
This can be used either way, either you can set up juicy ultimate for Gnar with your ultimate or Gnar can set up a juicy ultimate for you. Either way it is a chain CC that can make team fights very one sided.
Neeko
Just landing a good ultimate will give Neeko access to perform her ultimate to cause big damage.
Rell
Same deal with Diana but is a tank. Rell's ultimate and her chain CC can help you get your ultimate down almost every time.
Taliyah
Taliyah can make an easy access ultimate simply putting a wall behind the whole team. This is broken.
