So i just played a game, it was won untill wild katarina came, she wass 1/1 so she wasnt fed, in teamfight she was just waiting for us to get 60% of our hps and just aced us witout ulti, (about 1 sec) we had the cc but there was no time to react... i cant deal with that unfair champ, easiest wins ever...No counterplay...

you're telling me an unfed katarina bursted your entire team from 60-0 without ult and you had "no time to react"

errrrr yeah, that either didn't happen or you're not telling the whole story. unfed katarinas are hilariously useless, can't burst anything and just eat dirt when they go in on team fights.

The situations sounds as if you might have misjudged your opponents and not properly considered counter-play. 1/1 till then and you relaxed.

You don't ever stop because a wild Yi appearing is always the most annoying thing because he can take two turrets on his own, run back into jungle, come back 4 levels higher and just harass you into your own base.

What you described is forgetting how influential hypercarries are.

Know what I find hard counters Katarina?

Prayer.

Pray the player behind the Kat's screen becomes distracted and are pulled away a safe distance from keyboard. Pray that they do not have a cat or dog which may accidentally bump the keyboard, triggering the R key, effectively acing your team.

I've had my prayer work 3 times against Katawinna in ranked, and I'm advising you all to spread the word until more.. permanent solution can be found.

Or you could just throw Cho'gath at her.

It's so mind-numbingly easy to beat Kat in lane as Cho it's not even funny.

Cho is a bigger lane bully than she is, so he can effectively poke and deny CS. Cho has health sustain, Kat doesn't, and his mana sustain helps compensate for Kat's resourceless nature.

Cho can easily stop her ult with his W.

But more importantly, unless Kat somehow has been kicking the Cho player's ass in lane and has him low (which says more of the Cho player than Kat), Kat's ult doesn't do [i]shit[/i] to Cho. Stacking HP counters Kat's ult. With Feast stacks, a RoA, and an Abyssal Scepter, she basically can't kill you. Though she can roam, if Cho follows her he can easily counter gank and score an easy kill.

Don't get me wrong, I tried Kat recently and it was absurd how easy it was to get triple kills. She really is fucking mindless to play in teamfights. E > R > Triple kill.

But that doesn't really make her overpowered. People in Solo Q just don't use their CC against her properly.

Though yeah, if Kat actually farmed well then her being able to burst squishies isn't really that notable (though not every support is fucking Sona, Kat can't burst a 60% health Leona or Braum).
