Need some akali counterpicks

AMADEUSdotEXE·Jun 18, 2017·1 votes·427 views

Picked taliyah (lane was fine then she started roaming) she seems like a decent pick but what I'm asking for is more along the lines of say: picking garen into riven, picking kassadin into kat, picking fizz/tryndamere into yasuo, trundle into darius. I'm looking for the counterpicks that effortlessly stomp her. If you don't get what I mean then look up anything relating the matchups meantioned above.

She's one of my least favorite (to be honest i think she's fucking cancer but to hell with my opinion, it isn't going to change) champions to play against... the others being trynd and fizz. So any strong picks into her? Easy counterpicks?

The only thing that comes to mind is annie and even then akali still stands a chance if the annie doesnt hold her stun. Malzahar as well but missing his q can be disastrous and thats pretty easy to do.

Gragas is really effective against her.

Galio can not onl ydeal with her but also prevent her from jumping onto his backline

JarvanIV stomps her (literally)

Wait, are u saying Akali outroamed you on Taliyah?

Anyway you can beat her with any champion early and shut her down. As for mid and late bruisers work pretty well.

It was more or less my (bronze) jungler ignoring pings while he was at 25% hp and walking into mid lane against a 100% Akali 2 levels ahead of him. And other such things.

In terms of mages, Lissandra, Ryze, Syndra... most mages with hard cc will actually work, it's just you have to have a good reaction time to her dashes, save ur cc abiities for her ult

My personal picks, I play a lot of Taliyah also but i don't pick it into assassins if I can avoid it.

Mid: Viktor: poke and clear nothing special, Q when she Q you early game. Get hextech upgrade and clear the wave and push her in. Less roaming for her

Mordekaiser: you want to actually smash her? Pick morde, she does nothing to you at any point in the game without risk of her dying.

Top: Irelia or Morde. She can't do anything to either of them

Katarina can hit her while shes in her shroud, and the reduced healing on her ultimate helps out a lot, but the matchup can go either way

Draintank Karma counters her hard. All tether abilities reveal stealth for the duration. LB against her does well, since it's not hard to land chains on a melee champion that dashes in-front. Shroud stealth won't do anything since it will reveal her, and then gets 100-0 with double-chain combo.
