Alternatively, you can play comps that counter them, like nobles, brawlers, and yordles.

None of those counter assassins. You can have RNG in your favor and win a few matches, but they are in no way a counter.

3 nobles = a random buff on 1 guy, not doing jack. Good luck living long enough to get 6 nobles and if you do, you are almost dead anyway. Brawlers...4 brawlers = 700 extra hp, which isnt 1 auto attack at end game and it sure isnt equal to 1 of their AP attacks. Yordles, 65% cance to dodge...big deal when you cant dodge assassins +x400% AP attacks at all.

Phantom dancer...so many bows laying around to make them....its not like its the highest contested item at the carousel or anything.

Odd, everytime I have gone those comps I have beaten Assassins, also placing a dummy unit in the backline to die works too.

The question is, do you not get shit on by others not playing assassins? Yes, you can try to stack thornmail on a dummy unit, and you are lacking one unit.

As for build a specific team comp against it? Lol.

Stack in a corner, put units that are beefier in the outer ring with your dps in the middle for protection

Sure, the assassin player gets ONE non-assassin unit, and your frontline blindly charges that one unit. I'm not quite sure how the targeting and retargeting works, but based on the fact that minion aggro is a concept that fails to be consistent for a decade, i would not count on it actually working as intended.

Also, hexes. You need at least two more "beefy" units for this to even theoretically work, so a few options are flat out unplayable, not to mention you just grouped up in a really tight bunch, so if you get an AoE team (eg Cho + Seju) you just got gigarekt. Assassins as top two is easy to handle. The problem comes when you have 2 assassin players and two others with you in the game.

lol that never works. they always have at least 1 unit to drag your units out of the corner and RIP any units in the back since usually they spread out enough were assassins get a surround on at least one unit

Works plenty for me.

If the game was about only getting 1st place then sure, who cares. But its not, its about placing 1-4. In 15 straight games Ive rushed an assassin comp and gotten to 6 assassins 14 of 15 times. Ive placed 14 of 14 times. 4-!st, 7 2nd, 1 3rd, 2 4th, 1 5th. When ranked comes out assuming I have similar results Ill gain LP like its nothing.

The one game I did not place I was 5th, only got to 4 and had literally no item drops outside of carousel pick ups.

I could say the same about yordle 6, and they are getting buffed apparently.

It takes 6 assasins to get the full buff. The other thing is that it's not unstoppable. If it truly was it would be nerfed. But it loses quite a bit still.

Lol, That is why they are getting Nerfed Tomorrow right?

Assassins will be top 4 some 8/10 times however stupidly you build them, it's a proof they are broken. They will rarely be 1st though, but there are so many comps that cannot do smack against them and only a few that can do anything, which are very hard to complete building, and even if you do, chances are you will be way too low to turn around, due to A > B > C > A
