How do i deal with lee ganks? I feel like his only counterplay is doddging Q..

He can go behind turret kick you out then Q o He can Q ward jump behind and then ult he can ward jump behind you and kick he Can ward jump Q

i feel like if he couldnt ward jump hed be easier to deal with but idk how else i can deal with him. The only way i can have a good game is if the lee player is bad. I feel like if lee wants you killed he can do it. so i do need avice on what i can do to deal with him? is there things that a lee must do that i can ward to keep track or something? Not trying to say hes OP but i just cant see much counterplay other than dodge Q lol

Pretty much all you can do it dodge q and ward. He falls off late game, especially without any kills.

Dodge Q or pick Poppy.

Aside from remembering to ward against ganks and having jungler presence (standard counterplay against any jungler), that's your best bet.

Like you said, dodging Q is most of his counterplay. He's just naturally strong against immobile targets (particularly squishy ones). The best way to deal with most gankers is to know they're coming. But with Lee's mobility, you can't exactly ward all his attack vectors.

If you happen to be an AP champ that can build Zhonya's or Protobelt, those can help a lot. Zhonya's can force Lee to choose between eating an extra 2 tower hits (and risking death) or calling off his tower dive. And Protobelt can help you dodge Q on a much shorter cooldown than Flash.

If he gets close enough to Q you without W first, then that usually means you were overextended for how much ward coverage you had. Of course, with his mobility, playing 100% safe isn't really an option most of the time against his mobility. But over time, you can try to calibrate your proper level of safety to say "I'm 80% sure Lee is heading for top lane or Krugs, or so I can probably safely CS for 10 seconds or so."

For a last point, reasonably fast displacements are pretty strong against his Q since he can't alter direction once he starts it (without canceling the damage). So like Syndra E or Ziggs W mid lane, Janna Q/R or Alistar Q/W or Thresh E support, Tristana R ADC, or... I don't know top lane well.
