Now that detection has been neutered to a pair of situational trinkets, which do not actually detect a stealthed champion, what's the counter play?

As in, what does one actually do to soften an assassin's impact?

Do I have to pick aoe cc every game now?

I think Riot's aim in changing stealth was to increase the time it takes for assassins that utilize stealth (Kha'Zix, Rengar, Talon, etc...) to burst you down by adjusting their kits to give more room for counterplay (e.g. like making Talon's rake slower in returning). Whether Riot did a good job or not is debatable though.

Well that's the thing - counterplay to what? Given that we literally can't see as assassin at all now, I'm at a loss as to what we're actually supposed to do.
