So, I can't help that I feel there is nothing more oppressive than this: : :

at this point there is no tanking, and any champion without magic resist will get 1-shotted

There is no chasing these 2 and any attempt will kill you, one faster than you can blink, the other slowly and painfully.

is there or is there not something for this? Anything a person can do to stop them from killing an entire team with a few well placed skills and clicks?

not even is that impossible annoying to fight. He may kill you with pressing 'r'. but the most he can do is spawn a circle and pop a to escape.

I'll debate on this if necessary

A team ...

You're talking about two champions who's respective strengths offset each other when they are in the hands of two players who use the champions themselves, and work together as a team effectively.

What you need are two, or more, champions in the hands of capable players who counter them respectively.

I know, it's odd that you might need a team to beat a team, ... but there you have it.

helpful in solo que by myself. I've seen bad versions but as long as they have that void staff they are a pain to try to fight. Then there are the good ones. The ones you can't chase or they will turn the tables.

In the case of the former, yeah in the hands of a decent player he's a pain in the ass and you'll need at least one person good with a reliable crowd control effect to stop him from just murdering your squishies and getting bailed out by his passive speed boost and/or W and/or R. Or you know, someone that can kill him just as fast, ideally by surprise. It's hilarious how effective I've been with him with minimal play and only really using W as a zoning tool rather than actively triggering it.

In the case of the latter... git gud. All of her abilities are very avoidable even without mobility tools and she's basically freelo if you engage her during or soon after a poke attempt. Actually my last match laning against her as a Teemo would probably serve as a good demonstration of her weaknesses. If you're interested I'm sure I could upload the replay somewhere.

in the former, assassinating Ekko fails normally because of either the pop of ult or item 3157 . Either one would give him time to plan a retaliate, and he will hard and fast. just a decent player could pull off assassin plays of 2 or three hits. A good stun might help, but really... Their not purposely going to put themselves in a situation where they could get stunned or rooted purposely. Most sneaky tricks only work once or twice. Unless they aren't too bright.

On the case of the latter. Use your brain scrub. The range of half those powers go further than any adc besides Jhin . Her ult, which could have a minimal cooldown of 34 seconds, With the build listed above, could not only 1 shot squishies but can annihalate a whole team. as a tank Alistar . That ult still wiped out 2000 hp from a 4000 hp build, with 230 MR. It also kills anyone behind me. As a single player, I can no longer protect my teamates from their mistakes, because as a lux player, your only goal is to LAND those attacks, and with the range of that circle, it's not hard.

you make it sound like it's an easy answer. It's not. These 2 have been the biggest pains of game after game for the last 3 days for me. The popularity of that new deluxe skin isn't helping XD. Elemintalist lux. whether laning ekko or not, he single handedly kills everything with that void staff and his shield which at points i've seen go up 3000 points.

Platinum 5.

Use your brain scrub.

When I get this from someone I'm offering advice, yeah being nice (not to mention the actual advice) is more than he deserves. I'm expecting a little "warning" for this fellow as well, Rito.
