Guinsoos champions

Could anyone tell me how to counter guinsoos champions? Such as jax,master yi, udyr, xin zhao, etc. This is becoming increasingly annoying due to the fact that they're high burst and solo fighter champions. Any recommendations and tips would be helpful.

Not really, all they need is sated and rageblade and go full tank after and still do tons of damage. The amount of damage I've seen a Yi do with this build is ungodly while being nearly unkillable.

And if they do, by that point in the game you or your frontline should have easily gotten enough defensive stats to keep alive and lock them down.

^ This.

Plus the fact they have very little pressure earlygame and so you should be able to do quite a lot of things before they become relevant.

Yi, yes. All the others he mentioned can gank lvl2 depending on the situation.

AS slows are really pretty strong against them. Also, strong counterjungling and objective dominance slows them down dramatically.

Nunu is excellent at shutting down their jungling and their damage with his consume and ice blast respectively.

Nasus is also pretty good against devourer junglers because he can usually farm in peace while they stack and his Wither shuts down their DPS incredibly hard.

Malphite is a very strong top laner right now and can stack a lot of armor and a thorn mail to shred them as they attack, since they proc on-hits a lot, which means they also proc Thornmail's return damage more, and he can also slow their attack speed.

However, for master yi, since he can avoid slows, you should pick champs that have high durability and a LOT of hard CC, such as Nautilus.

If you are playing carry types, pick champs that excel at kiting and keeping range, like Vayne Ryze Quinn Lulu Lissandra Kindred Kalista Caitlyn Ashe Ahri

first off. you probably won't be able to 1v1 these champions mid-late game. or even 1v2 or 1v3. just get your whole team and cc them and burst them down before they get close and lifesteal. because if one of them gets close you will probably lose one of your team mates as they can 2-3 shot squishies while being tankier

whenever i play a snowball champ in jungle i usualy follow the 2k10 rule, which states that i need 2 kills at 10 min mark in order to be able to do anything usefull in the game. I also found that, when playing those same snowball champs, if i can't achieve the 2k10 i'm massively underfed and therefore the probabilty of doing well lowers considerably.

So, my advice is DO NOT FEED in the first 10 min of the game.

Why are all of Guinsoo's champs shitty and anti-fun melee autoattackers? Is he really that terrible at designing?
