Don't just put down a direct counterpick, try telling them why they beat the champion they're having trouble against, what to look out for, what to do when they're ahead, how to keep them behind, their weaknesses and strengths, stuff like that.
If I say how do I win against Annie, do I really have to pick Xerath to counter her every time I'm against her?
Why not tell me to rush

RookPusher1 votesIsn't that what guides are for though?
Ralanr1 votesGuides aren't always up to date.
RookPusher1 votes...ok, and everyone's opinion is?
Ralanr1 votesThe thought process is usually to pick out which information appears most often.
Plus it's annoying to find guides that are half a season behind.
Handy Sandy 1 votesIf you're playing an uncommon champion such as 
, there aren't really going to be many guides on them, and a guide might not answer your question. I remember when I was a Swain main a couple months ago, the last guide made was a year outdated. Personally, I find it much easier getting answers on the boards rather than looking through a bunch of paragraphs, and you can also get multiple opinions and many different ways to do things here.
