There is no counter to the marksman class currently.

Legend says that a long time ago there was a champion Rammus who used to counter the marksman class. He was stuck down by a mighty force known as Riot. There is a small smigen of hope that he will return but nobody has seen him since season 4.

I don't like how people use the term "stat checking" for the simpler melee champions they don't like, while marksmen are generally the ranged overlords of stat checking.

Ashe, Quinn, and Teemo are the only ones that somewhat deviate from this, regardless of their current strength. The former has a wealth of utility, while the latter two have absurd map control.

All of the others just turn into generic auto-attacking death-dealers, that kill everyone if they're not killed fast enough. They offer nothing to a team outside of damage, so it basically comes down to which one does the highest damage the most reliably. I feel the game would be in a much better state if Riot didn't balance the game around these kind of marksmen.

Stop complaining about ADC. Yeah, they're strong. They also have counters.

These include, but are not limited to Zed Talon Diana Akali Rengar KhazixFizz

GA / Death dance / Hexdrinker fuck them hardly. Let's not forget that they usually have a support that stick to their ass and can nullify any assassin (hello Lulu's polymorph or Janna R/Q/E). I agree that lethality is too strong atm, but adcs are supposed to be squishy and require placement, atm they can just stand still and right click (Varus says hello)

What exactly do you mean by counters. For example: in a duel, divers and assassins will win most fights against a marksman.
