Every single game I play I always do bad against her... I play Fizz,Yasuo,Viktor,Vel Koz, you name it. I've never had a single game against her in lane where I went positive. Anyone else thing she needs a nerf or is it just me .__.

I play Cho against her, her true damage barely scrapes his insane HP pool, which is constantly healing anyways, and a silenced Ahri is pretty much a dead Ahri.

The reason why she's weak against Cho is that she pays a very meaninful price for her mobility (Her ult CD), so if she tries to juke my Q, I can just stop trading and try again in 15 seconds, fucking her up.

I agree with the Cho pick, but if you're using Q when she isn't silenced, you're doing it wrong. Same thing with maxing Q first even though it has higher base damage, your W is much better for poking all mages (except Xerath because lolrange). I pretty much never Q in lane unless I'm trying to go in for the kill with my ult, as using it leaves you very open to ganks.

I always max W, and poke with it, but using Q on a low HP Ahri is a great way to make her burn her ult with your low-cd skill. And THAT's when you kill her. If I don't do this, I often find myself silencing her, knocking her up, and as I make my way for the killing blow, the silence is gone and she ults away.

She is very dangerous, you just need some cc, lock her down and everyone on your side burst her down fast. A mao kai top lane could do it, maybe a morgana, idk

Mana is a huge problem for Ahri early on. Get aggressive with her when she's low, try to bait abilities out of her when she's got plenty.

She just got a nerf and she's fine. If you are having problem with her, try counter picking her or let someone else go mid.

Im a fizz main and I always do bad against her. I follow guides and everything.

Fizz is more of a top or jungler right now so you shouldn't be laning against her much.

I found any mid laners are pretty bad against her played by anyone with a little bit of ability. I find that mobile ADC ranged toons tend to do better against her than any of the mid-laner mages.

She's strong at the moment, but it sounds like your issues lie in your inability to dodge skill shots.

I just find her annoying and boring to play against. Shoot out orb, run away, rinse and repeat.

Now she's safe, but not that much of a threat any more. I found playing against the old Ahri much more exciting.

How are you losing to Ahri as Fizz? Just E her charm/orb and gg.

She does have a TON of targeted damage at close range, her ult and w hurt like a bitch. So that's probably your problem. Try building an abyssal early if your going AP, otherwise you should beat her as bruiser build. NEVER get close to her unless your going to kill her. Her w can outtrade almost anything.

she is a decent support, i tried several times, won bot lane each time also she can be adc, it even was played competitively several years ago i personally won a troll game as a duomid ad ahri (having an intentional feeder annie too, who then changed her mind) recently (: imo she is a better support than adc though

for me is too safe, 3 dashes, a m speed buff and if you reach her, she has also a stun

no she doesn't, she has a skillshot taunt also she is slow, even 3 dashes aren't always enough to flee from some champions

More than likely it is just you. You do have to worry a lot about positioning when playing against Ahri. When I started playing league Ahri, Leblanc, and Gragas were top tier picks for the mid lane. I was learning to main Ori at the time and Ahri counters Ori, but because I played against it enough and I learned from my mistakes I got good against Ahri. An Ahri pick does not phase me anymore even if I counter myself with Ori. If you have not played as Ahri yet then I suggest you do that. It will help you understand Ahri's limits and weaknesses. You can then have an easier time laning against her. Good luck :)

I typically play Draft Pick Normal. If I have the chance to pick after her, I will use Twitch. He makes short work of her most days.

I'm an Ahri main, and trust me, she's not nerarly close to OP, the ap ratio on her abilitys are a lot lower than the other mages, to be effective she needs to get lots of AP early and snowball throught the game, just don't feed her and you will be okay. If she gets fed, like everyother champ can, then yea, she becomes a nine tailed monster, and any sticky champ like Talon, Diana, Swain and others can easily counter her

Says the filthy ahri player.

I played Ahri once.

Once.

I wanted to report myself for cheating.
