Threats & Synergies
Aatrox
Only a problem if you're behind and lack dmg
Ahri
One of the weakest champs in the game, dodge charm and you'll be fine.
Akali
Try to slow her b4 she shrounds, if not just wait out shroud and burst.

Gives you a free lane phase from level 1. Only threat is flash combo'ing for a gank which is very easy to flash away from.
Amumu
Champ needs a rework.
Anivia
Can't do much to her unless she uses cd's or you have some times / levels in zilean E to catch her.
Annie
Champ is useless unless she has flash but even then very easy to predict when she'll flash.
Ashe
Annoying lane phase but you have godlike gank set up. Spam ping help and repeat gank her 0 mobility butt.

Long range is aids.

Only problem is his ult which you can easily dodge.
Blitzcrank
Free lane phase, just dodge hook and he's useless.

Dodge W poke in lane. Should never have to worry about stun, very slow moving projectile.

Free lane phase.
Caitlyn
Better push early levels vs you / poke / long range is good vs you early until items / levels in Zil E.
Camille
She'll probably E before you can E if it's from FOG. E'ing after her ult is a little hard but not really. Burst / mobility are a problem only early game.

Her W is annoying. Rest of her kits useless

Sitting duck, can't do anything to you.
Corki
R poke tickles and is useless champ.

If there was a threat level below tiny he would be there instead.

Wait for R b4 u place bombs. Only way she kills you is cheese from a bush with 0 vision.
Dr. Mundo
Mundo + Treads. Is a huge problem after 1.5-2 MR items. Need dps on your team or you're screwed.
Draven
Just annoying in lane phase firsts few levels. After items levels, isn't a issue to deal with at all even if he has lead.

If giga ahead can be annoying to deal with cause he can always ult back.

Can never get on him just a nuisance. to deal with that does 0 dmg.
Fiddlesticks
Silence / Fear / Ult flashing are the only problems. Qss / Cleanse / Crucible are easy solutions and keeping range.
Fiora
Sitting duck. Always wait the parry, fioras always panic.
Fizz
Only issue is if he roams bot at 6 while you're not 6. Zil XP should prevent that though.
Galio
His ult gives you a free stun on him. Wait .5 seconds after the ult though because he's "unstoppable".
Gangplank
His ult is the only thing you should worry about. Hit barrels too and he's useless.
Garen
Sitting duck. They need to nerf his W though.

Haven't seen this champ in a few months. Very squishy early and even with MR later is useless.
Gragas
Only problem is his displacement ult. Other than that, he can't do anything to you.

Kindred
Can't Q W R on veigar vs her if cage is level 1-2 because she can pop ult b4 you do that. Make sure to chain cc.

Vi
Her ult isn't bad but a champ like this should never hit 6 during a game.

A little less useless than Udyr.
Warwick
One of the worst champs in the game.
Wukong
Budget kha'zix. Needs rework.

Very strong lane phase / mid / late game.

Yasuo
Don't fight in minion waves. Can abuse you early if you're vs yassuo or 프제짱.
Yorick
A more useful version of Udyr.

Early ganks are a little annoying. After your E cdr goes up he can't do much.

Ziggs
Can't really siege vs him should find picks / hard engage / splitpush.
Zoe
Just careful of bubble b4 you get movespeed items / levels in Zil E.

Annoying lane phase, will likley hard push first few levels so ask for ganks. After level 5 you're out pushing and can 1 shot.
