Best champion to counter the fed?

hi, noob question here.

I'm useless in a lot of games but im rlly useless when like another laner is fed from the other team. I tend to play champs like diana & Lux, and they rlly can't do much when theres (Example) a fed shyvanna jumping out at you every 2 minutes.

What's a good champion that won't be affected too much by how fed others are, etc? thinking of shifting to tankier champions. anyone got any suggestions? also what's a good strategy to use if the enemy team are fed?

[Sorry, complete noob question here]

I think what you are asking for is hard, purely because of the definition of fed. I've even won lane as a tank but died immediately to the fed enemy mid laner. The point of someone being fed is that they are much stronger than anyone else in the game.

That being said, I would say champions who can get picks would be highly valuable. Landing an ashe arrow, malz ult, blitz pull, or other similar abilities on the fed enemy can be an easy way to deal with them.

But again, if the enemy team plays it right the whole point of a fed champion is to carry the game and be either a tank that never dies or a carry that kills you in seconds.

I don't know that a particular champion would really help with that situation. If a damage dealer is fed and you're a tank, their damage items are likely outpacing your tank items, and they'll rip through you quickly anyhow.

In general, if your team is behind, you need to get safe vision in your own jungle, and try to farm it out. If you get vision control over an area, you might be able to snag some picks here and there to try to catch back up. Keep an eye on dragons and baron when they'll be up soon. With the right vision control, you may be able to see enough of the other team out of position so your team can safely sneak in a dragon. Any time the enemy team is grouped up in a lane, you just want to wave clear and disengage. You're basically just waiting for the other team to make a mistake, or else the game to drag long enough for your team to get farmed.

It's not the easiest thing to pull off with how the game currently plays, but the average player makes enough mistakes that they might just accidentally throw the game.

you could play a tanky champion with CC to peel for your team and try to keep a fed player in check.. or you could also play a duelist type champion like irelia or fiora who can often still duel fed enemies with proper itemization
