Extreme Threats

Ideal Synergies

Samira

Extreme

Your best counter is yourself dont go in too deep and try to stay around your team, let them engage for you.

Draven

Extreme

Personnally it's my perma ban. Dying once early is usually the end of your lane.

Caitlyn

Extreme

Caitlyn's range is a huge threat, especially if she spaces you well. However if you manage to close the gap and W her E after you dashes on her, she's most likely killable. Try to avoid getting poked too much cause you won't be able to kill her if you're on low healh. You can block her headshots, Q and R until she missplays and creates an opening for you to dash in

Nilah

Extreme

Nilah is basically the same champ as you but wins easily 1v1s. Don't even try to fight lvl 2 or 3 she'll get it before you with her passive. She also can block your Q since it's considered as an AA which can mess up your combo + she can cancel your ult with hers.

Tristana

Extreme

Beats early and late. If you manage to block her E the fight should be winnable but she can easily create distance between you and her with her jump/ult

Vi

Extreme

Two unblockable stuns with one not being a skillshot. She got huges burst and can delete you easily. Either stay behind until she's out of the fight or buy death's dance but even that is prolly not enough

Malphite

Extreme

If he ults you, you're probably dead in most of the time.

Rammus

Extreme

Can't E him if he Q's just make sure to stay around your team when rammus is here

Alistar

Extreme

Impossible to kill when he ults + has lots of easy cc to cancel your E and ult

Leona

Extreme

Can't block any of her ccs and makes it impossible to move

Gragas

Extreme

Can easily cancel your E and R. Got a lot of displacement abilities and is really hard to burst

Cassiopeia

Extreme

Once your in her W you're basically dead. Can easily kite you and will ult you if she sees you dash into her

Swain

Extreme

Just unkillable once he reaches lvl 6

Taliyah

Extreme

Her antidash makes it really hard to go in on her

Poppy

Extreme

Can cancel your dash and ult with three unblockable ccs + has a huge burst

Braum

Extreme

Two unblockable cc to cancel your ult and easily blocks all your damage

Mordekaiser

Extreme

If he's really behind and you're really ahead then you can win the 1v1 in his ult otherwise you hard lose. Plus the fact that he takes you out of the teamfight means your team might lose and you'll have some people waiting for you outside

Dr. Mundo

Extreme

Samira is not a great tank killer and mundo can just run down her if he has heartsteel warmog.

Ashe

Major

Huge threat lvl 1/2. You can go in lvl 3 and 6 just try to block her arrow and everything should go smoothly

Ezreal

Major

Can easily poke you out of lane. Hard to go in on him if he has E however dont hesitate to punish him if he E's towards you. Any good ezreal player will never E towards an enemy champion but since we're talking about League players anything can happen.

Kog'Maw

Major

Kog'Maw can easily trade 1 for 1 with his passive but it's def not worth it for you since he outscales you especially if he has a good support with him

Kalista

Major

Kalista is a big threath for you since she can easily kite you and got a slow. Plus she has a cc that you cannot block.

Amumu

Major

Same for Blitzcrank he can instantly cancel your ult with his

Blitzcrank

Major

Can just ult you to instantly cancel your ult

Nautilus

Major

Got a lot of cc with one being unblockable and really hard to burst

Jinx

Even

Try to not run into her traps and block her ult if possible. Should be an easy lane if she doesnt poke you too much with her rocketlauncher in early

Kai'Sa

Even

You can block her Q which a major source of damage for her but be careful of her passive's damage which can surprise you a lot in early/late. Same goes for the shield of her ult

Lucian

Even

Low range champion, block his ult if he's focusing you. and try to not get kited by his dash and W's ms and you should be good

Xayah

Even

If you block her E and dont get kited, you should be fine

Miss Fortune

Even

MF has huge damage early with her Qs. If you manage to not get poked too much this should be okay. She can easily kite you with her E and W. Block her ult while going towards her and dash behind her, doing this should give you a kill.

Soraka

Even

Soraka can silence you which will cancel your ult otherwise she's just a free kill

Karma

Even

try to build serpent's fang if no one can it might help you a lot against her huge shields. Unless you let her poke you she's not that big of a threat.

Lulu

Even

You can block her W which makes your life a lot easier however dont forget she will ult her adc once you dash into him just wait for it and then you can ult. Just like Janna she might panick and ult before you do

Janna

Even

Block her Q and if her ult is on cooldown she's free kill. She might panic and ult before you ulted which is even better for you

Aphelios

Minor

Always check the weapons he has before going in. if he has red/white then avoid all fights with him in melee otherwise you should be fine. Just block his ult

Vayne

Minor

Try not to fall behind early otherwise the game will be a lot harder. Otherwise as long as you block her E you win every fight.

Varus

Minor

Long range champion, has antiheal + slow and can root you. Block his ult/Q and if he's in your E range then punish him instantly

Yunara

Minor

Haven't played against a good yunara player yet so i m putting her here for now. In my opinion as long as you block her W you can go all in and kill her. She has better late game tho so be careful about it

Smolder

Minor

Try to not get poked. Block his ult and dont let him reach late

Rakan

Minor

Try to E him when he Ws you and avoid getting charmed

Thresh

Minor

as long as you block his Q you should be okay. Just like Nautilus he has unblockable cc but at least you can burst him

Zeri

Tiny

Pretty weak but becomes a real threat if allowed to go late game

Jhin

Tiny

If you dodge his W he's a dead man.

Twitch

Tiny

Go all in lvl 3, block his W and ggwp

Sivir

Tiny

Sivir will just afk farm in most of the games so buy cull and do the same. If she's misposed then punish her but she'll just run away with her ult if you don't have ccs

Senna

Tiny

Usually this is just a free kill since her champ is pretty irrelevent with short range early

Yuumi

Tiny

if you manage to catch her off her adc this is a free kill + she cannot provide enough shields to protect her adc from your damage

Seraphine

Tiny

Very long range but as long as you block her ult you're good

Sona

Tiny

Sona will never be a threat until they rework her kit

Nami

Tiny

all her ccs can be blocked which makes her the perfect prey

Pyke

Tiny

same for nami you can block all his ccs

Nautilus

Ideal

Has so much ccs having him in your team is like a christmas present

Rell

Ideal

Same for Nautiflus, she got so much ccs

Leona

Ideal

Lots of ccs as well

Alistar

Ideal

AGAIN LOTS OF CCS WE LOVE CCS

Renata Glasc

Ideal

can give you free ults with hers and makes you unkillable with her buffs

Braum

Ideal

Such a good champ that can protect you and apply cc for you to engage on

Janna

Ideal

got two bumps, slows and peel

Maokai

Ideal

Very good engage and bump with some poke for harder lanes

Neeko

Ideal

Can knockup everyone in the enemy team with a very long root. She can also bait the enemy team if she's disguised as Samira.

Zac

Ideal

Got good engage and lots of bumps and is really tanky.

Amumu

Strong

Pretty unusual to see him as support but still very good. if he's jungle then it's basically free teamfights with both of your ults

Orianna

Strong

Good ult combo if she puts her ball on you

Taric

Strong

can keep you sustained and get a free cc if he activates it when you dash on someone

Morgana

Strong

her blackshield is so good against heavy cc team comp

Pyke

Strong

Got a knockup and can easily follow you if you wanna go deep in teamfights.

Rakan

Strong

Has a good engage, a bump and decent peel with some heal and shiels

Yuumi

surprisingly good with her kit. Makes you a lot tankier in fights with her shields and heals. However good luck if there's a Mordekaiser in the enemy team

Nami

got good ccs to engage on as well as good buffs and heals

Seraphine

can provide heal and shields as well as good engage with her ult

Pantheon

just like Samira he s got a strong lvl 3 which makes it is easy to scale early

Lulu

she's got strong peel and good bump but you have to be already in melee range for it to happen.

Milio

Milio got a cc and good peel as well as a cleanse with his ult but the downside is that he got no engage so you have to follow on his Q which is pretty weak

Vel'Koz

Vel'Koz got a bump and good damages but the champ is really weak rn and has no engage aswell so if you're against laners that u cant go in, he can provide pressure in lane

Xerath

Low

Can be good if he hits his E cause they usually give you a kill out of it. Otherwise there's not particular synergy

Lux

Low

if she hits a Q it's usually a kill but she able to steal your kills pretty easily

Karma

Low

can peel you good but doesn't have a reliable cc and no engage

Sona

None

Pretty irrelevent champion but still has a nice cc at lvl 6

Soraka

None

very good sustain but as Samira you're looking for ccs which soraka do not have

Synergies

Ideal Strong Ok Low None
