Choose the best counter of your main as your secondary main.

You have something to pick if your main is taken; You know how your counter works, meaning you can more easily diminish their impact. That's all. Have a nice day.

Just play Karma top then and you'd be considered less of an asshole because less people hate Karma.

Captain AishiDec 17, 20151 votes

lol, i remember a game I played against a karma who DC'd and said 'it's sad that I dc'd, we couldn't have a good laning phase' to which i just wanted to answer 'you're playing karma, we can't have a laning phase...'

seriously playing against karma consists of farming up while constantly taking her shit and having nothing you can do about it... it's so annoying (but yes unlike vayne, she doesn't run you down and kill you if you try to last hit a creep :P)

Gnar

Uh, who counters Gnar?

ShonjlDec 16, 20155 votes

Another Gnar.

TurquoiseYoshiDec 16, 20155 votes

Played that matchup. Can confirm, Gnar doesn't counter Gnar, but Gnar counters Gnar.

EndlessSorcererDec 16, 20151 votes

Vladimir is pretty obnoxious to play against as Gnar.

He out-damages Mini-Gnar in short trades, out-sustains him, kites Mega-Gnar, and can pool Mega-Gnar's telegraphed CC.

item 3158 or item 3020 or item 3047 , item 3145 , item 3191 , item 3135 gives him enough early sustain, durability, and penetration to do whatever he wants.

Irelia is another good choice. Bladesurge lets her juke Mega-Gnar's abilities by jumping to minions, she can easily stick on Mini-Gnar long enough to burst him down, and she can choose when to engage/disengage fights.

Yasuo counters Gnar.

TurquoiseYoshiDec 17, 20151 votes

That's what I thought of, but I really don't want people to hate me. He's also pretty bad in most other matchups.

Handin Out NapsDec 17, 20151 votes

It's alright playing Yasuo teaches you how to deal with him and not qq about him aswell. It also shows people his skill cap, honestly everyone just needs to give Yasuo a try it will shut a lot of people up. Yasuo is a very fun champ to learn, I encourage you to try him :).

TurquoiseYoshiDec 17, 20151 votes

I know his skill cap, I know he's kinda fun, but I'd rather not play someone who's gonna have a bad lane in all but a few of my matchups. Especially if I'm using this as my counterpick, I'd like the champ to be simple and not something I have to hardcore main. Additionally, I prefer not playing champions that get balanced regularly. It gets pretty confusing when your champion has different damages every other patch and different build paths all the time.

Mega Gnar

kile147Dec 17, 20151 votes

Anyone who can decide the engage. Irelia is the safest counter pick, Yasuo is probably the hardest counter but he's a risky pick. Fiora v Gnar is skill match, and Lissandra was too last I checked, though I haven't seen her top in awhile.

Draven ... well HE COUNTERS EVERYONE

but does he counter Draven ?

Main: Yasuo Counter: Velkoz

No, I'm not kidding. Statistics have shown this matchup to heavily favor Vel'koz for a long time.

charcharmunroDec 16, 20152 votes

Well, nothing Vel'Koz has is blocked by the wall except his Q, which he can angle around the wall anyway, and Vel's quite good at playing the "Hey, no, you get back" game.

VeraskaDec 16, 20151 votes

W is partially blocked and E is blocked

Stars ShaperDec 16, 20151 votes

It's actually the contrary. Everything is blocked except AA and R.

W "knife" gets blocked so you get a rift only to where the wall is
E has some tentacle thingy flying to the AoE spot which can be blocked

DunkinNoobsDec 16, 20153 votes

The W is blocked as well and the E detonates when hitting to wall so it's still kinda blocked. But even with that, it's a very favorable matchup for Vel'koz and he's far more useful than Yasuo later in the game. As long as you don't get styled on by Yasuo early game, it's pretty much a free win.

charcharmunroDec 16, 20151 votes

Huh. I thought the rift thing went under the wall. Wasn't that a thing that was meant to happen?

DunkinNoobsDec 16, 20152 votes

Not that I can recall. Typically, even projectiles that visibly come from underground are blocked by the wall. The lone exception to this is Naut's ultimate, and there a significant amount of nerdrage here on the boards when Riot said they're planning to correct that inconsistency and make Naut's ult blockable as well.

Nah, just shove jax in dere.

ShonjlDec 16, 20151 votes

What doesn't Jax beat though? If he gets on top of anyone, they die. You better have the godliest kiting to not allow him to jump to you.

stealthfox94Dec 16, 20151 votes

lolcounter would disagree with you personally I think Malzahar is by far his biggest counter.

NarasimhaDec 16, 20151 votes

And then someone on your team picks your main :P Try countering that

On a more serious note, it's far more efficient to choose a secondary main in a completely different role than your primary. Diversity is the, or atleast a, key to victory.
