This is how I feel about Riot's balance team.

"Guys... Something's wrong with Corki and Irelia."

Well... What is it?

"I... I don't know."

Well. I think I have the perfect solution!

"You mean it~!?"

*Moments later, Riot employees are spinning each other around blind folded with darts in their hands*

Okay. Now that you're more disoriented than a drunkard, throw this dart here at that dart board. We've stuck champion skills in the various parts of the board.

"Wait, each champion only has 4 skills..."

Oh just throw it, if it lands in a champion that doesn't need a nerf, who cares, we'll just nerf it anyway.

"Oh okay."

*Throws dart.*

"Well! Looks like Corki and Irelia's abusive true damage values are safe for today! In fact, she'll even keep her bat**** OP sustain for months and months because we don't analyze problems, we just try random *** nerfs until we get it right."

Good talk, glad we got together.

"Yeah I love darts."


That's how i make all my major life decisions.

Anddd we're gone again. Don't check for us =D. Cool poster by Animality though.

That's how we should pick our leaders except all the candidates stand blind folded and the one who gets hit gets to lead. Assuming they survive.

On a lighter note, i need to play moar ad carry! I need a support buddy =)

Honestly, I don't think you counterpick just the carry. You have to counterpick both at the same time.

Obviously, there are a few exceptions like Caitlyn should never be picked versus Sivir because she has free, almost infinite mana if you're stupid.

Graves+ Taric is always a strong combo because True Grit+ Shatter make it really hard to out-trade you if you abuse the glitch with his passive.(Start an attack but never fire it and it counts as being in combat) They also have stupid burst at level six with Radiance+ Shatter+ Buckshot+ Collateral Damage.

If you're facing anyone paired with a Janna, just make trades after the shield goes down.

Abuse Vayne early on because of her short range.

The list goes on but, I don't know everything. :P

I actually think a good Vayne can beat a Caitlyn. Vayne can zone caitlyn out of using her bush presence which is why caitlyn is strong in addition to her passive, her traps give her total bush control and vayne can take that away.

urgot counters a lot of AD's. Specifically, Vayne, Kog'Maw and Graves

Taric, Caitlyn, and Soraka all counter Urgot.

sivir counters Urgot, Tristana (kind of) and lots of supports like Leona, Taric, etc.

I think AD Kennen is actually quite bad the only reason people like him is because of his frequent stun, but he loses if you can't end the game early. even then if you want an on-command stun at level 6, why not pick ashe?


Kind of true, but I only play 2 ad carries, Kennen and Kogmow. I just like playing ad Ken, cause its so fun. You guys probably know better, I don't play ad that much.

Just wondering though, how was M5 so succesfull with AD Kennen?

On topic, I want to learn to play more supports

Currently, the only supports I play are Alistar and Nunu & Willump. What support should I get next? I am thinking of Janna or Taric.

AD Kennen is kinda strong early and mid game compared to other AD Carries. He eventually gets out scaled but can still be really effective if you got your positioning right, and his poke is amazing during the laning phase.

I actually play AD Kennen in ranked, just because he is a strong counter pick.

Janna is strong, but your teammates need to understand how to make use of your abilities, which can lower her effectiveness. You'll also be so fast, sometimes you'll forget to upgrade your boots until a half hour into the game.

Taric is a great choice if you're used to melee supports. Shatter will help your carry win trades, and his heal should keep both him and his carry healthy for the entire laning phase.

You might also want to consider Soraka. She's cheap (450 IP), fairly easy to play, and still pretty strong in the role. She's also much more forgiving if you're not lightning-fast with your reactions than most other supports.

My question is which carried does he counter?
