League of Counterpicks needs to go away

Playing Cass vs. Poppy, Zilean, Corki, Shyvana, and LeBlanc. Literally cannot play the game. Even if I miraculously land a Q on one of these champions moving at 400+ MS, Zilean speeds them away before I can follow up with an E, even with Rylai slow.

This is fucking stupid. It's not okay that you automatically lose games because of your pick.

The ability to counter pick the enemy team really makes Draft much interesting, imo. For example, when I'm first pick I am way more cautious about my choice if I'm really going for a win and not just practicing a champion. I do have to add that some champions can absolutely counter others and though its a painful experience, it adds more to game play. Teemo vs Tyrandemere top lane means that the jungler might want to focus his ganks on the top lane a little more. It's a team based game and I personally like the concept of counter picking.

Except there are match ups where a champion is completely invalidated, even if they're ahead, which isn't okay. It's not a matter of 'XD OH LOL JUNGLE JUST NEEDS 2 GANK SUM 2 EVEN IT OUT'

Some people think this is interesting. Not me, but some people.
