then they pick something like Tristana

jumps away as soon as u jump her. still managed to get within melee range using flash? ults you away

or Vayne

goes invisible, pushes u away, and assassinates u instead

Oh no an ADC that isn't just cannon fodder to an assassin, the horror.

Yeah no sympathy for you, assassins have been 1 shotting ADCs in .5 seconds for far to long for me to have any sympathy when something isn't going their way.

Wow what an oversight! Let me get riot on the phone. Oh wait, that's part of her design.

Just like assassins used to say back in the day "just bait her R"

Except in this meta and for the longest time now that hasn't been an option. There's no such thing as baiting CDs now. It's either all or nothing.

I know, i said it sarcasticly because "bait his X" isnt a good counter to anything. Xayah is a natural counter to divers and all in, she isnt immune tho, any assassin has the mobility to get behind her and dodge her E, and kill her, she has 525 range and all her damage is tied to her E which needs setup and is telegraphed

No doubt she's annoying to assassins, i wont argue with that, but she's not a tank

no its not just zed. every assassin. they can't do anything to her. 0. remember the whole bullshit triangle of balance? well that doesn't exist anymore really. between supports that already cockblock like crazy. tanks and an adc that covers an adc's biggest counter

please lmao

It sounds like you forgot about Rammus. He is the god of all assassins. At least with the triangle being involved.

For the first time since patch 6.9 Zed's ult has some counter play.

Wat? Zed's was like the first assassin who had counter play on his ult, and there's a lot of it. Any heal or shield, summoner 3, summoner 21, item 3157, even item 3140 until they changed it, not to mention you can force him back early to bring his damage down to just about nothing. The guy literally tells everyone in advance who he is looking to kill.

It’s called skill?

Almost every assassin has a lower ult cool down than her, and she's designed as being a triangle-breaker. A lot like Rammus is, actually. Both are designed to beat, rather than the normal side they'd beat, the other side of it.

Rammus, rather than being designed around beating burst champions (although he does so decently), is specifically catered to beating champions with high attack speed - which is pretty much every marksman that exists, barring Jhin.

Xayah, rather than being designed around beating tanks (although she does so decently), is specifically catered to beating champions that try to dive onto her - which is most assassins.

It's just how the champion's designed.
