Tips Against Alistar as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Sakuritou says “As long as you avoid the dive at Lvl 6, he can't really do much, as you can just hide in ur E or W him as soon as he W's you and then you run out of his E.”
0
stroderna says “Nothing here to say other than if you're caught out of position, he will knock you up and his ADC will finish you off.
Also, his recent AP build deals a surprising amount of damage, so don't get cocky if you see it and remember to respect it.”

SnowBl00d says “even lane usually, just silence at his target when he goes in. should prevent him from doing anything else, free kill.”
0
daltonfresh says “His headbutt (W) is a point and click dash that pushes you away, so he can deny your engage pretty easily. He out-tanks you, so if he plays aggressively your adc could be in big trouble.
Play safe until you get an advantage, peel with Q, don't get headbutted.”
0
Mr_kodeo says “Jax goes well into engage supports. Someone like Alistair should in theory be a difficult matchup, thanks to his knockback, but Alistair's whole kit is engage, which Jax excels at. Pre level 6, If the bull gets close, you can either stun him and help your ADC blitz him down, or just go past him and aim straight for the enemy ADC, since with Jax Q and E, they'll either lose a considerable amount of health or have to burn Flash. Alistair will either have to turn back and help, or keep going for your ADC. However, before engaging, I would suggest you let them push up to your turret, because if Alistair does decide to go after your ADC, then its nice to have the protection from turret that they can fall back on.”
0
io1375 says “He is one of those matchups Rakan tends to struggle in with his engage and CC, any remotely good alistar will wait to see if you're looking for an engage, and immediately punish you before you can make it happen. However you too are a good engage support, so watch for when he is looking to engage your adc and do essentially the same thing back as he is walking up, and be prepared to E back to your ally as soon as his knockup is over. Alistar does however become an extreme threat if he is alongside someone who also has cc like a lot of the common APC's that are normally played midlane”
0
Rolocyn says “Champ's that have to actually get in to melee range to get cc is a really free lane because there just instantly cc when engaging as long as ur adc stays inside ur boxes obviously ”
0
Kogami123 says “Early Game (Laning Phase)
✅ Gragas has a slight advantage thanks to his poke with Q and his sustain.
✅ Alistar becomes dangerous level 2-3 with his W-Q combo, but remains vulnerable before.
✅ If Alistar misses his engage, punish him with E-Q to force a winning trade.
⚠ Don't position yourself too close, or he may W-Q you under his tower.
Mid-Game (Roaming and Skirmishes)
✅ Gragas roams better than Alistar thanks to his E + R, so take the opportunity to gank mid.
✅ Use your R to counter Alistar's engagement, pushing him back or disorganizing the enemy team.
⚠ Don't hit Alistar first in teamfights, as his R reduces damage enormously.
Late-Game (Teamfights & Objectives)
✅ Gragas is more versatile: he can engage, disengage or isolate a carry with his R.
✅ Alistar is tankier and more durable, but Gragas can reverse a fight by isolating an opponent's carry.
✅ Aim for the enemy ADC or mid with your E-R combo, not Alistar.
⚠ If Alistar finds a good engage on your ADC, the game can turn.”

ShriekingMammoth says “Alistar is a champ that does a very similar thing to Shen, though Shen has a shorter cooldown with Q and more damage. The only issue you should have is leaving adc under turret as Alistar has really good dive potential. Outscale him as well.”
0
Kirkwardo says “He has no response and is likely to AFK. Biggest threat is being ganked. ”
0
unhben says “Alistar just nullifies your engage and overall sticking potential. You become a roaming support if this happens, just tell your adc to play safe.”

TEMMA says “Jogar no Max range do Q da Sona
Evite dar o Auto Ataque nele , pós entra no range do combo do Alistar
Utilize o Slow da Sona após o alistar fazer utilização do E dele ”
0
Zileanaire says “CC = Dangerous. Position well and it shouldn't be too difficult. Play behind or off to the side of your ADC so you can counter cc the enemy ADC when Ali all ins yours. ”
0
JVS8 says “Alistar is a relatively easy matchup for Bard. The key is to respect his power from level 3 to 6, as he can be quite strong during that window. You win the early levels (1-2) and, from level 6 onward, you offer better scaling, engage, and sustain in both healing and damage. Use this advantage to outplay him in the later stages of the game.”

Weyko says “be careful cuz he might lockstun you or your adc, don't miss your combo or you will be in trouble”

IGMorgane says “It's supposed to be a big threat but if you keep your root just for him, the matchup is quite easy.
Easy to zone ! don't forget to use your auto-attack as well ! ”

Pykings says “Don't rush to make early plays as Alistar is tankier, has more cc, and does more damage lvl 1-2. Play it slow and wither him down.
You can Q/E his Headbutt animation.”
0
BabyCuddlePunkin says “Skill matchup. Push 2, poke before he has pressure to combo. Poke so that he cannot combo without being punished.
Alistar is somewhat like Maokai, but without the tools to circumvent your stun. You should generally beat him out of lane level 1-2. Each reset you need to respect his engage at full hp or with Flash up.”
0
mUI0g says “Alistar has low mobility and hence its easy to poke and win lane. However, be alert at all times for his Flash-EQ combo to all-in.”
0
Smaugyon says “Great matchup for Senna you do have to respect his engage power but you can free stack on him and you can kill him without much problems when he doesnt have ult ”
0
ZedAway says “really strong peeler and engager, a good alistar roams a lot and really hard to counter gank with his amount of cc, best option is to catch his adc isolated, and look for invades with ur jungler.”
0
Aerenax says “Alistar color is a skill matchup that can be tricky to manoeuvre. Play around his W Q combo cooldown and you should be fine. Skilled Alistars can surprise you with a flashy combo.”
0
zSharpFire says “A good Alistar can be a huge problemo. You can try to poke him or the ADC with R+Q but if ADC has fleetwork it's over. flett+passive will outheal all your poke. I would suggest always going ShieldBot or PeelBot”
0
JVS8 says “Just be careful at his level 1-6 and keep in mind that you have an advantage at level 1-2, so after his 6 you just outscale him.”
0
Mr_kodeo says “Headbutt knocks you out of E, and his pulverise ability interrupts your CC. However, you don't see many Alistair players anyways.”
0
Arctic Arrow says “The matchup against Alistar is quite even, but be cautious about engaging first near their tower. If he’s aware and positioned well, he can Insec you under the tower and potentially turn the fight in their favor. If Alistar engages first, use your E (Crimson Curse) to stun their ADC and focus them down, as you have more damage than Alistar.
You can also try to stun Alistar into a wall with your E and take him out before he hits level 6. Stay aware of his crowd control and play around his cooldowns to gain an advantage.”
0
BigodeOfLegends says “Alistar can withstand Senna's poke and approach her with his headbutt and pulverize combo, disrupting her position.”
0
Zazomy says “A Tank Support with a push back and knock up, he also has a stun that needs to be stacked near an enemy and an ultimate that makes him even more tank. But he is quite immobile and has a large hitbox which is an advantage to Pyke since he easily hook plus stun Alistar and then leave the rest to his teammates for the kill.”
0
Ziulo says “Not a big deal, but you need to respect him at all times. Almost imposible to kill.”

sfxshinygod says “Pantheon hates CC. Let them engage first and then jump on the ADC. Do not all in post-6 and save your spells most of the time for any other squishy/priority enemies.”

LA COLORADA says “in lane, whoever engages first is prone to lose the duel, so let him jump onto you then counterattack, and keep in mind he has really long cooldowns early on.
sometimes alistar players buy full tank items for some fucking reason, and paired with his ult he'll get quite chonky, so make sure to just skip him during later skirmishes as he's easily ignorable due to not having a real form of cc lockdown. ”
0
Abarame says “Facing a durable engage matchup like Alistar is tough to punish unless he makes a mistake in his combo. Aery poke isn't effective against his passive sustain. Consider dodging if your team lacks frontline, especially with four squishy champions. Ideally, having two frontline champions makes dealing with Alistar more manageable for you. Guardian is best here.”

IMANOOBOKOWO says “Pretty even matchup however you must NEVER engage first if you are close enemy tower if he has his monitor on he will insec you into their side of the lane and early on they can run you down. However if he goes first you can just stun their adc and since you have more damage than him you can just focus enemy adc down( Or even stun alistar into a wall with ur e and kill him pre level 6)”
0
A Ferro e Fogo says “Nessa matchup joga sempre a fase de rotas desmontada (W2), pois fica mais difícil de ser cancelada, pois o cc é point in click; acredito que quem inicia primeiro acaba perdendo a luta, mas vai de caso para caso.”

Lacoirx says “Tricky matchup, all in him During lvl 1-2

Foxirion says “As both are tanky supports with crowd control, the threat level is minimal. The outcome largely depends on their respective ADCs.”

Foxirion says “Alistar's crowd control and tankiness can pose a challenge for Rakan, especially when trying to engage on enemy carries. However, Rakan's mobility and ability to disengage can help him deal with Alistar's engages effectively.”

glimppi says “He can't engage. Just put a box inside your wave and your ADC is safe.”

Respect him at all levels and if you start charging a hook throw it in the first 0,7 seconds otherwise if you dont interrupt his w with it you are in for a bad trade.”

Velkyann says “Alistar is a very generic engage support to fight against, if he gets into range there is not much you can do just dont let him get behind you. You can poke Alistar the entire game just be carefull of his engage and play with his cooldowns in mind.”

Kcmichalson says “[SUP] Alistar is very tanky but has a very simple combo. He'll try to stun you before dashing into you, so try to activate W before he CC's you to avoid his knockback.
When he uses his R, try to disengage until its duration wears off.”

FunnyBunnyH says “Matchup depends a lot on the ADC picks, but he spikes harder than you on lvl 2 even with W+Q/Q+W start, and his lvl 6 is insanely strong.
You do outscale him as the game goes on, similarly to Rell.”

iamfart12345 says “Too tanky to bother him at all, combine this with his passive and maybe guardian rune and he can also make his ADC tanky which is troublesome for you.”

Your_ Local_Eldritch_Horr says “Lots of cc, which Yuumi hates because it will put your w on cooldown. Be careful when detaching around him. He isn't played that often though, and its rare so see a good Alistar, which is why he isn't higher.”
0
quecck says “Annoying because his engage can mess up yours. Save your W for after he headbutts you. Generally his ADC will walk up to engage on you so you might be able to E the ADC then. Alistar also gets way tanky in the later game.”

You should always take E level 1 against him so you're safe in case he gets the level two powerspike first.”

Ryecheria says “Poke out Alistar early in lane so that he has no opportunity to engage. He does sustain well so keep him either low HP or stay out of range of his w. DO NOT EVER stack on top of your carry.
Look to poke Alistar because his passive heals his allies more than it heals himself.
Look to punish lv 1; at 2 he can flash combo you and knock you into tower.
He will also look to buy boots off first base and roam.
Alistar will look to take future's market and buy mobis at ~750g (~3 cannons worth).
Care explosive power and hexflash over walls. ”

Fenreee says “Alistar is really annoying as his cooldowns are just too low and his sustain and tankiness are too high. Make sure not to stand ontop of your ADC as he will stun both of you, and use your E when he's running you or your ADC down. Taking sweeper and gaining bush control is really important into him as he cannot W you if he cannot see you. Also focus on the ADC matchup as that usually dictates whether this is winnable or not.”
0
HumbleMundo says “Since Alistar basically cancles his W with Q the double wont count as cc so you can tank the whole engage but his E will get you and he can always focus the adc since theres really no way to block it once he's in”
0
eXC4l says “He can easily force you to de-engage with his W. A good Alistar will destroy your game presence.”
0
mazewalk says “When timed perfectly, you can deny him W, which ruins his whole engage. Still, flay him away since he can reengage with Q. You can also deny his engage by clearing wards or going in a bush, since W is a targert dash. Before teamfight you can hook him to bait his ultimate and then back off untill it goes off. During teamfights deny him as much engages as you can but dont prioritize him over other important targets.”
0
JezebelleXX says “He has healing and reliable engage when Flash is up, but you generally outrange him and can easily poke him down. Be careful of Flash and Hexflash, try to keep lane bushes warded. Aery is viable here, as is Comet. Poke hard early.”
0
TheBougis says “Alistar is very good in Arena overall.
He and the zone are very good friends so try to position yourself away from the zone as best as you can and try to hit every Q to heal when you eventually get thrown outside the zone. Other than that there is not too much counter-play and you will have to rely on your duo to kill him.”

Shadowcrushers says “Alistar being considered a minor match against Soraka can be attributed to several factors, including their respective strengths, abilities, and playstyles. Here is a detailed explanation of why Alistar may struggle in a matchup against Soraka:
Healing Reduction: Soraka's main strength lies in her powerful healing abilities, which can sustain her allies during fights. Alistar, on the other hand, lacks reliable healing reduction tools. While his E ability, Trample, does provide a small amount of healing reduction, it is not enough to significantly hamper Soraka's healing output. As a result, Soraka can effectively counter Alistar's engage attempts by outhealing the damage and keeping her teammates alive.
Poke vs. All-in: Soraka excels at poke and sustain due to her long-range abilities, especially her Q ability, Starcall. She can consistently harass Alistar and his ADC from a distance while keeping herself and her ADC healthy. On the other hand, Alistar's strength lies in his all-in potential with his Q ability, Pulverize, and W ability, Headbutt. However, Soraka's ability to poke from range makes it challenging for Alistar to find opportunities for successful engages. Additionally, her W ability, Astral Infusion, can instantly heal her ADC, nullifying some of Alistar's burst potential.
Crowd Control (CC) vs. Silence: Alistar is known for his crowd control abilities, primarily his Pulverize and Headbutt, which can disrupt enemy teams and set up kills for his allies. However, Soraka possesses a powerful silence ability with her E ability, Equinox, which can silence Alistar and prevent him from casting his abilities, including his engage tools. This can severely limit Alistar's impact in teamfights and make it difficult for him to initiate fights effectively.
Ultimate Abilities: Both Alistar and Soraka have powerful ultimate abilities that provide significant benefits to their teams. Alistar's ultimate, Unbreakable Will, grants him damage reduction and crowd control immunity, making him incredibly durable during engagements. However, Soraka's ultimate, Wish, can instantly heal all her teammates, regardless of their location on the map. This global healing ability can effectively counter Alistar's attempts to burst down enemy carries, as Soraka can simply heal them from afar, nullifying Alistar's initiation.
Itemization: Soraka players often prioritize building items that enhance their healing output, such as Ardent Censer and Redemption. These items further amplify her healing abilities, making it even harder for Alistar to burst down priority targets. In contrast, Alistar's itemization focuses more on durability and crowd control, which can be less effective against a champion like Soraka who excels at sustained healing.
It is important to note that League of Legends is a highly dynamic game, and individual player skill and teamwork can greatly influence the outcome of any matchup. While Alistar may struggle against Soraka in a traditional sense, skilled players can still find ways to outplay their opponents and capitalize on their champions' unique strengths. Adaptation, strategy, and communication with teammates are key elements in determining the outcome of any specific matchup.”

Wounds2 says “Alistar's level 1 is terrible and you can easily snowball against him if you get a good fling on him and he can't get a good Q. You can also buffer his combo by flinging him when he goes to W you. Your ult is basically Alistar's but better, and you can easily shut down Alistar in a teamfight.”

Cyclic says “Abuse him level 1 and poke him for as much of his health as you can before he gets his W + Q combo. Save flash for his flash Q and be careful of his all in potential after level 2 while poking him and his ADC when possible. Should go even at least in lane and outscale”

T1vladimir says “Alistar tends to turret-dive since his RTips helps him take less damage. He’s not able to initiate until Level 2 since his WTips+QTips is not up yet. Vulnerable against ranged attacks. Try to poke him with some auto attacks. Always have some vision on the lane bushes. Even though his Tips is on CD, he can make some plays with , so always respect his engage potential. Has quite long CDs on his main combo so wait for the window to trade. Agile champions can dash away from his CC.”

Sorakas says “Runes: Unsealed Spellbook
Alistar doesn’t pose major issues for Soraka, and poking him in lane is relatively easy. You can even cancel his combo (W+Q) by timing your silence (E) just as he initiates with W, though this requires quick reflexes. When done correctly, it can protect your ADC. If this play feels too risky, use your silence to block the enemy ADC’s path when Alistar engages.
Be cautious, as Alistar can use an insec to knock you or your ADC under the enemy turret.”

Arch Aspire says “Engage will be tricky since any attempt you make will probably be met with him knocking you away. He has R that can basically negate your R engage. He also provides heals while you're stuck there helplessly watching your ADC slowly lose health. If you get caught, better make sure you have E ready to mitigate the incoming damage.”

mazewalk says “He can't cancel your CC, just keep your distance so he doesn't engage with his W+Q combo.”

Fenreee says “|||SUPPORT||| This is a complete mirror matchup as Janna and Alistar generally do the same stuff, except Janna is able to cancel Alistars only gap closer with Q. This means that fundamentally unless the Janna messes up, Alistar's only engage tool is Q>flash. He can use flash to insec you into his team, but after lvl 6 this usually just means you get to R and insec people back into your own team, and if you have a stopwatch or zhonyas the play becomes quite troll for alistar. Most Alistar players will try to roam Janna as they pretty much can't play the laning phase against her, however Janna has higher movespeed than Alistar, so a good Janna should be able to match him and ruin his ganks. Make sure you only roam to match him though, since if he decides to stay on lane while you roam, he will towerdive your ADC.”

He can W+Q combo you from outside your attack range, he gets a strong heal as a free passive he doens't have to work for and he's darn near unkillable. You can't even bait his abilities out to get them on cooldow. If the pick rate wasn't so low, I would always ban Ali.”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “Alistar can and probably will engage as soon as you get into range. Try to stay at max range at all times to limit his ability to engage with his Headbutt(W) + Pulverize(Q). Even though Alistar’s Headbutt(W) is a point and click ability, you can still dodge it by dashing, blinking or Flashing before it hits you. You can also interrupt the dash with knock-ups, knockbacks or knockdowns.Alistar will look to roam if the lane gets stale. Make sure to punish him by looking to fight the enemy ADC or zone them away from farm while he’s gone. Make sure you ping as soon as he leaves lane so your allies know he’s gone.”

Jageiko says “Alistar is one of the freest lane you can face in support. You NEED to play safe and take W lvl 2 since his only chance of engaging in lane without burning his flash is to engage lvl 2 when you take Q-E. So Take W and wait lvl 3 to fight, you dont lose much, and you avoid a lot. If he manages to land his combo (he shouldnt but happens), you have more damages than him. Go on his ADC and kill before they do. In lane you can also R the ADC when Ali engages, and kill Alistar 2v1. He will feel pretty useless if you do.”

CynicalSora says “Alistar passive heals him and his allies roughly once per wave. Take Aggressive/Supportive runes and Ignite to maintain poke. Start Relic Shield to reduce getting caught out. If he dives your ADC; E > Q > [Rejuvenation] > W (> R if needed)”

RoseOfInnistrad says “Alistar is very similar to Rell, but his W and Q both cancel Rell's mounted W and he becomes a lot tankier than her through his ult. Alistar's scaling isn't all that great though, so there's wiggle room in the later chaotic teamfights to find *some* agency.”

Avoid getting Q>Flash into his Tower when playing aggressive. ”

Challenger Project says “Alistar has an easier time to engage on to your ADC since he is not relaiet on skillshots as Nautilus. His lvl 1 is extremely weak, try to abuse that.

Groovywelsh says “Alistar top can't kill you but you can't kill him either so in lane just farm.The problem is late game in team fights becuse if you E then alistar can Q you and cancel your E. And then push you back with W and you can't do nothing”

Cordiall says “Alistar isn't a threat so much as he's a nuisance. Neither one of you will likely be able to kill the other one, so it's likely just going to be a boring lane where you both just hope to beat the enemy. Alistar is more prone to roaming than Braum, though, so make sure to capitalize on the times when Alistar leaves lane.”

Brizz Valentine1 says “
He is a support with a lot of initiation, if he catches you with his combo at least he will burn your flash.Very tanky and passively heals in lane and in group fights.

Na fase de rotas, um só mau posicionamento teu dará abertura para o Alistar de dar engage em você e fazer com que você morra. Apenas jogue defensivamente e com uma certa distância do teu ADC (se vocês estiverem juntos, Alistar pode dar engage em vocês dois ao mesmo tempo). No começo do jogo, sempre que ele tentar farmar, use teu Q para pokear, além de dar um sustain ao teu ADC. Use teu E quando ele for pra cima de forma errada, pois além de puni-lo, você ainda o enraizará. ”

pastelzia says “Alistar is an engage crowd control support who counters Yuumi with many of his abilities. Alistar's Pulverize stuns and knocks up enemies neaby, canceling You and Me! and refreshing it's cooldown. Alistar's Headbutt allows Alistar to dash to a target enemy's location, knocking them back 700 units while also stunning them for 0.75 seconds, canceling You and Me! and refreshing it's cooldown. Alistar's Trample allows him to become Ghosted while trampling the ground around him every 0.5 seconds for 5 seconds, gaining a Trample stack each time this abilities damages enemy champions. At max Trample stacks, Alistar's next basic attack on-hit against a champion within 6 seconds stuns the enemy for 1 second, canceling You and Me! and refreshing it's cooldown.
In general, all of Alistar's abilities except his ultimate counter Yuumi's You and Me! making him a hard counter for Yuumi.”

Gobomo says “Very skill based matchup. Don't get caught out and you'll have a lot of lane pressure, but if he gets a kill on you for his ADC the lane can snowball really quickly. The reason he's on minor instead of even is because you have a very strong level 1 compared to his incredibly weak level 1. Bully him off of minions so that your ADC hits 2 sooner and hopefully get out a flash or even a kill using the advantage. ”

neuroplasticity says “Not a champion at level 1 you should poke as hard as you can to get lane control. Be respectful from lvl 2 onward and bubble the ADC if Alistar engages onto your own. Your passive paired with the slow from your E should help kite the big cow. Later on your ult also works well to disengage.
Be mindful of his flash-headbutt combo when sieging and check whether the Alistar runs hexflash.
Alistars love to roam and hexflash over walls so make sure you ward the river/ use your pings frequently.
Run Guardian and consider Shurelya's if your team doesn't have much mobility.

LimTheDestructor says “Don't let Alistar engage your adc (interrupt his engage attempt with Q if possible). If you engage, engage on enemy adc with E or on Alistar with Q or on 20% hp Alistar with E. Don't be too optimistic while finding moments to all in. Mostly the one who engages, loses the trade if doesn't oneshot enemy adc. Don't go close to enemy turret - beware of Alistar's Flash + Q + chain CC. When Alistar gets (or recalled and can buy) Mobiboots, ping your midlaner to be ready for his roam. When you see Alistar comboing you, press W before getting CCed. Remember that Alistar without both R and Aftershock is squishy, can interrupt your E engage but can't interrupt your Q or R engage.”

CC machine champions can always be useful even if they are behind so don't bunch up for him in teamfights and focus anyone but him because he does no damage later on.”

In lane against Alistar you should ignore him completely, try hitting your combo against the enemy ADC and not him, your level 6 is quite better than his, so make use of this and all-in his ADC (along with your ADC) when you get this powerspike
Remember Alistar is a quite immobile so make use of your roaming potential
Against Alistar you should build as usual”

Hanjaro says “Yuumi is extremely weak when it comes to all-in engage, she hasn't got much peel and if she detaches, she will be bursted down - it's very hard for her to keep her ADC alive when she gets engaged on.

Fear The Jester says “ADC dependent, Really tricky to engage on, since you have to get behind your enemy to get your boxes down and get your free crit, which gives him opportunity to knock you into tower. displace yourself with Q when he WQ engages onto you before his Q hits so that he cant stack E for free. always gain bush control so he cant hexflash engage your adc. very annoying that he can just W to displace your boxes as you place them. Try to bait him into engaging on you when youre standing on a box. ”

PicklePantsLOL says “The brushes are extremely dangerous in this lane and need to be kept warded at all times. Avoid walking too close to the brushes even if you see Alistar in them as he can Flash>Q>W you into his team.
Alistar will definitely try to all-in you at level two once his W>Q combo. There are two ways to avoid this, either poke him enough at level one so that he can't all-in you, or concede the push and keep the wave near your tower at all times.
Once he gets his Ultimate R, you can't allow him to build up a huge wave and crash it into your tower as the wave, paired with his Ultimate R will allow him to set-up brutal tower dives with his Jungler.
In team-fights, Alistar will look to flank you from the sides and his goal will be to lockdown the highest priority target in your team (mostly your ADC). Try not to fight in the jungle as it will allow him to land a multi-person Q. You can thwart his team-fight all-in by poking the remaining four members of his team and forcing them to play defensively.”

Biotic says “His Level 3 with a Strong adc is very dangerous. After your first base with a Kindlegem dont be affraid to get engaged by him you win 2v2 most likely if you have the stronger or even Adc. Level 6+ You hard outscaled. You can follow roams.”

Lugos says “He is a melee tank with no burst and pretty straightforward combo. If you keep your distance to avoid his WQ, or flash WQ combo you are good. Also keep in mind that he can tank a turret no problem, if he does, maybe their jungle is coming too and it is a dive. Additionally, he can do a Q-flash trick, if you do not expect it you might get caught. It is also the most dangerous trap to fall for. If he has hexflash he will try this from bushes and at other sides of the walls often. Watch out for these cheap tricks and you are good on lane. As for the rest of the game he has a bonus against you, that he is a tanky with cc's. You have to be more useful to your team than he is as a tank.”

Guoblide says “Alistar is a fairly easy matchup for Braum due to Alistar's aggression being fairly linear and easy to shut down. However, Alistar can make some unexpected outplays that less skilled Braum players won't know how to play around. Alistar is a tanky Vanguard support than can be played either as an engage tank or a Warden depending on the champions on either team. Against Braum however Alistar will usually be played as an engager focused on catching out Braum or his ADC. Alistar spikes a bit at Level 2 with him gaining access to his Headbutt + Pulverize combo. This combo isn't especially strong into Braum though if Braum stands near his ADC as a well placed Unbreakable can block most of the follow up damage from the enemy ADC. Alistar spikes again at Level 3 as the acces to Trample provides him more lockdown CC. His final spike is at Level 6 with Unbreakable Will although this spike isn't as scary as Braum lanes are usually looking to outscale over get kills on the enemy support. When Braum gets to lane he should be able to get some poke off with Winter's Bite and maybe deny the enemy ADC CS. Alistar is not a threat at Level 1 due to Pulverize not providing a lot of CC and requiring Alistar to get near an enemy to land. Back off at Level 2 and try to stick near you ADC to peel for them due to Alistar being able to engage from a long distance with his Headbutt + Pulverize combo. This combo gets even scarier at Level 3 with Trample being able to extend the CC chain on your ADC. Play safe up until Level 6 where Glacial Fissure gives Braum better peel and pick potential if the enemy ADC mispostions. Braum outscales Alistar and provides way better peel and engage to an extent in late game team fights so getting through Levels 1-5 without misplaying should make the game way easier after the laning phase is over.”
0
Spection says “As long as you don't get within range of his combo, you're totally fine. When he headbutts your ADC, drop a silence field under your carry to prevent him from pressing Q or E, making it a lot harder for him to apply any follow up cc, insttead knocking your AD away to safety. Be wary for flash engage, requires very quick response and can be deadly. Respect him, take E level 3.”

Mr Jamba Juice says “Type: Support - Alistar has stronger engage, stronger CC, and stronger Melee strength than you in the early levels. However, he is still a Melee Champion. A good Alistar will hold his engage tools until after you expend your E, while you can punish by holding your E as well. Play Parallel to your ADC to avoid Alistar's AOE Knockup. Your Sustain tools are stronger than Alistar's Pre-6, so make sure to always have enough Mana to get out of a bad situation. If necessary, buy an early Tear. If you feel comfortable with Taric or are against a Melee Laner, you can take Aftershock to match Alistar's Trading power. Never build Moonstone into this Champion. Tenacity doesn't do much against him, so take Inspiration instead for your Secondaries.”

Your Q range is bigger than his W range so just keep poking from afar with your Q. Once he goes in and messes something up, punish him hard for it. Do not stack too close to your ADC as he can potentially flash Q both of you.”

Starchase says “Extreme threat if they have an aggresive ADC.
Lvl 1 try to poke him as much as you can, except if they have an aggresive ADC, he can flash Q you and kill you.
Afterwards never detach your ADC unless he already used his combo on your ADC and only do this to proc your shield passive.
Ping your teammates if alistar is missing on the lane.
Care about dives at lvl 6, if your ADC is at half health, ping him to back, or let him die.
You outscale him really hard.”

aWhiner says “Rub the steak all over with a good lug of olive oil and a good pinch of sea salt and black pepper
Add the steak to a hot pan, then cook for 6 minutes for medium-rare, or to your liking, turning every minute
For more flavour, try one or a combination of the following…
Halve a garlic clove and rub it over the steak every time you turn it
Rub the steak with a knob of butter – the sweetness from the butter will make it taste divine!
Or create a herb brush by tying woody herbs like thyme or rosemary to the handle of a wooden spoon and brush it over the steak every minute or so
Once cooked to your liking, rest the steak on a plate that can collect all the lovely juices for 2 minutes
Carve with a nice sharp carving knife, then serve with the resting juices drizzled on top
Everyone has their favourite ways to eat steak – with good old chips and a crisp, green salad, with pepper or horseradish sauces, or even a simple fresh salsa verde to cut right through it. Whatever you choose, we’re sure your lucky guest will love you for it.

mellorpyke says “Use Q for short trades/poke and just dont use E aggressively. Play far from your ADC so you dont both get knocked up with W-Q. if Ali engages on you just E backwards + Q aftewards. If he engages on your carry, counter-engage on the enemy adc, you should be able to win the 2v2 like that because you do more damage. At level 6 he usually wont ult untill he's low on health but unlucky for him, we got our own ultimate.”

Takitsu says “This is a skill matchup, but you are playing with a handicap since Alistar is a better tank than Thresh. If you can RELIABLY flay Alistar's engage, this matchup becomes easy. If you can't flay it, this matchup becomes extremely difficult with Alistar making you feel miserable.”

Xeptron says “Playing against the COW is tricky. Cannot let him fully combo your AD, cancel his combo with Q if possible. If you ever looking to engage against an Alistar, have to find a good spot to do it. Remember that Alistar has a really great engage with flash and W-Q combo, can throw you under the turret and with the huge amount of CC, stun you there for hours. Activate your W whenever Alistar engages to soak his damage and lock enemy AD down. Additionally, if Alistar doesn't run aftershock or whenever his ult is down, the cow is squishy - easily killable. Use that window to kill and snowball from there.”

Go Guardian because you poke is going to tickle him regardless of what keystone you go, and when he engages, go straight for the ADC and try to wipe them before they can wipe you. It is possible to interrupt his knock back with your howling gale, but it's one of the harder ones to time. Another thing is that this matchup is sadly dependent on ping. For someone with not-so-ideal ping like mine, it's really hard to land that Q on him, but maybe in Korea your luck might be different :(.”

Meepy says “His engage is pretty straight forward, but very dangerous. If you or your adc get hit by it, there is a big chance you die or have to burn summoners. Apart from his w-q combo, there is not alot he can do in Lane. You HAVE to abuse his weak level 1, to get him in a position where he is too low to engage/the wave is in a bad spot to engage for him.
Alistar will usually get Mobi Boots as soon as he can and roam around the Map. Try to not get outroamed. Alistar is weak if he is playing from behind, but impossible for Bard to Match if you are just reacting to his roams and always to late. Try to be active around the Map, or abuse his Roams to dive the enemy adc with your jungler.”

razzyhealer says “Hard-engage, heavy point-and-click CC champ. Is usually a lane bully and will roam. He also has healing built into his kit, which makes your poke less valuable. Try to reserve mana for E casts. Wait for him to CC your ADC before going for Bop n' Block.”

itizhelia says “Classic pick. Alistar pretty much does everything that Rakan does, but much better and easier.
The only downside is that Alistar isn't a mobile champion like Rakan.
I'd say this is a skill-based match-up and usually, you should respect a lot Alistar players because if they play this match-up right then they can make it pretty painful for you.
But bear in mind that if he plays wrongly with his stuns then you can punish him really hard.”

LeAnxieuxPrince says “Okay so, for Alistar and hard engage supports like Leona, Thresh and Rell, how well the lane will go depends on how well you can keep the pressure on them since level 1.

If he can respect their all ins and keep distance while you poke them, there should be no problems.”

Xeptron says “I would consider thresh counter to alistar but a good alistar can be very annoying agianst a thresh. One way to feel more safe against alistar is to learn when to flay Alistar's engage combo. Once you've learnt it, laning phase against the COW is a lot easier.
If you let Alistar combo go through, it can be a very unpleasant experience.”

CanadaJay says “Tanky and has hard engages, but you're able to deal with him due to the CC on your ult and E. Usually he'll build armour, so your AP damage will go through most of it. Just watch out for his knockback and knockup; these can lead to serious followups from his ADC.”

Frank6264 says “En fase de líneas traten de pokearlo de manera que no tenga tanta vida para poder hacer su engage peligroso aprovechando el hecho de que es un personaje cuerpo a cuerpo. Si por casualidad usa su combo para poder agarrar a algún campeón, a veces es buena idea utilizar la W de Karma en su contra para inmovilizarlo, ya que no tiene opción de escape (sobre todo pre nivel 6 debido a que no tanquea mucho en esta parte del juego). A pesar de esto, Alistar puede ser muy peligroso especialmente si se encuentran des posicionados para meter su combo y asegurar un asesinato. Recomiendo runas defensivas en este enfrentamiento. ”

Quando o Alistar der recall e estiver com Mobiboots, ping em seu mid para estar pronto para seu roaming. Sempre utilizar o W ao sentir qualquer tentativa de engaje. Lembre-se que o Alistar sem R e Aftershock é mole, pode interromper a sua entrada com E, mas não pode interromper o seu Full CC (Q ou R)”

Prof Harambe says “Any engage support is really easy for Shaco since your boxes provide a lot of defensive utility. Its quite laughable sometimes how much of a counter he is to some of the best supports in the game. In Alistar's case, he wants to all in early. If you let him push to your tower he can't knock your adc into tower while you either zone him or poke him with e. Alistar players tend to be more bright than Leona players, so they are more likely to play around your boxes - however he can't clear them and he enjoys sitting in bushes to hexflash so you hard deny his engage.”

DaejiBulgogi says “Usually into Alistar, you will want the enemy to engage first.
Since Alistar's early cooldowns are lengthy and has no escape without flash, letting them engage first allows you to peel back and re-engage.

Be aware when he is level 6 as his ultimate counters Thresh's kit.”

Guoblide says “Alistar is an easy matchup for experienced players but is more skill-based the newer you are on Sett. Alistar is a tanky frontliner with a lot of CC, kind of like Sett, but Sett hard wins every 2v2 or 1v1 skirmish due to his increased damage and sustain from Haymaker. Since Alistar can easily just Headbutt you away when you engage try to bait out Alistar]s long cooldowns and then engage on him with Flash or Hextech Flashtraption to catch him and his ADC off guard. Keep in mind that Unbreakable Will can cancel The Show Stopper when timed correctly so always try to focus on The Show Stopper-ing the ADC and not him. Also, your Facebreaker can shut down Alistar's Pulverize + Headbutt combo so don't be too afraid when he engages on you. Be careful when pushing into the enemy tower because Alistar can Flash + Headbutt you into his tower to deal a lot of damage.”

His kit has a lot of CC, which is something that you need to be careful of in the mid - late game, or otherwise, he can easily catch you out even if you're barely out of position.”

KajiKumihoAkukei says “Alistar is kind of a skill match-up. He has a lot of all-in engage potential, but you can deny a lot of that if you can time the use of your flay perfectly.
In this match-up you should stay close to your AD carry and save your flay for when Alistar comes to you with his headbut. This way you can deny his engage completely.
If he does manage to get on top of your AD carry immediately throw your lantern to get him to safety before Alistar can chain cc him to death.”

Taric Support says “This matchup is almost a skill-matchup even though i think Alistar has the advantage. When playing against Alistar it is important to stay near your ADC and be ready to counter engage. Play defensive and punish if they overextend, but don't play aggressive. Alistar can easily knock-up you and push you into a bad spot with his W. ”

Vahlok says “He can put you undertower if you need to take some tower plates, or even if you are trying to hook his adc. He out-tanks you and can escape from your hook using his R. He can just walk in front of his adc, making your hook useless because he can tank whatever he wants. Just try to penalize him poking with aa or your E everytime he tries to farm.”

thesophieset says “Not a fun lane. He is tanky and brings disgusting amounts of CC to the table with which he can easily keep you locked down while you get chunked by their ADC.

It's really hard to stop this cow.He is extremely tanky.His passive adds up a lot of sustain in lane that basically counters your poke and it's impossible to catch him with your Q when he uses W.And even if you do catch him he can just use R and keep locking down one of you.Only thing you can do is stay back and watch out in case he flashes/hexflashes.”

PayyBack says “Alistar is basically a better Rakan because of Alistar's easy W + Q. However, Rakan has more flexibility and mobility compared to him. Even if you get caught by his combo, you can still escape by using your E to your ally. Use even your W to escape if you have to.
If Alistar uses his combo on your ADC, use your combo to disengage and protect the carry, then punish. Keep your ADC alive.

Napiste says “This is Pykes hardest matchup. Alistars strength over Pyke is his quick engage on the ADC, while Pykes reactive CC is relatively slow. Vs Alistar you never want to stack near your carry, which is normally your best location for quick peel. Alistar combo will CC you both and you will potentially both die if you stand close. Position away from Alistar try to bait his combos on yourself when his AD is out of range for follow up, to provide a safe laning experience for your carry. You CAN look for trades on Alistar, as long as you are not pulling him into combo range of your carry with enemy carry in range to follow up on your carry.”

Ali has enough damage to solo kill an ADC so try to peel for them whenever he makes a play. Q is your friend here as you can lock him down and stop his (E) trample stun from hitting your ADC. Alistar is the best champ at turning your own aggressive play against you. Be mindful of this and wait until his spells are on cool down before going in on the ADC. ”

Zefirez says “Recommended rune set: Conqueror.
Cow is great a peeling and engaging. The trick here however is that he can only do one at a time. If he peels you off, he doesn't have tools to engage unless he flashes for it. If he engages and you both survive this - enemy botlane is screwed, because he has nothing left and is now officially just a walking punchbag.
Cow suffers from very nasty and long cooldowns. Once he blows his load, you want to chase and kill. Still with potential damage you two may eat from his engage you'll need sustain to turn the tables, not just damage. That's why your adc should build lifesteal and you should equip conqueror rune.”

Zefirez says “Cow has nasty engage, peel and good sustain for his lane partner, making him a very troublesome support to deal with.
Losing the poking battle is no issue, as we're really poking for manaflow stacks, not real damage, but getting engaged on or peeled off in split second with headbutt is no laughting matter.
Be very wary under his turret, if you try to go ham on adc he may q you, walk behind you and headbutt you into his tower.
That being said cow has atrocious cooldowns himself. Once he blows his load and there's not kill, it's pretty free kill on enemy adc. Also if he engages, he has nothing to peel you off with if you ult adc.”

Chromuro says “Tank with hard CCs, possible initiation and possible disruption. Even if you play well, he can bounce you everywhere and his ADC can take advantage of this. Stay REAAAAALLY far away, you can't respond correctly to his combo, even equinox can't save you.”

CaptianMike says “Devour does % max hp magic damage and that hurts the cow! Funny thing- he can ult to get out of your devour and it looks weird. Alistar does not deal much damage at all, so don't be afraid to trade with him. ”

MoreLoliconThee2nd says “As much as he can smash you in the face with his Skill 1 and Skill 3 combo, you can tank his hits and make sure he doesn't touch your ADC. Plus, you'll heal a lot more than him.”

Hunipop says “He's scary if the ADC becomes fed. Just poke him down. Not a big deal.”

will1314robo says “Just use your Q as a defense against Alistar to cancel his W on you or your ADC.”
0
Vermeio says “His Q, is annoying. His W, is a better lifesaver than you have. Still, you have better tools. Your W > His W, and his E needs time. In the end you have more reliable tools than him. If you charge his adc on wall, use W (presence). to prevent the E and do the full combo, before chasing him or getting back.”

xxlisatje16 says “This guy. is a no go. his knock up will not only be annoying to your adc. but will be really hard for you. the moment your adc dies you can't do anything against this guy. please just ban him”

Appler says “As long as he doesnt knock you towards ennemy turret you are fine, dont get yourself to cocky tho
He has strong dives cuz of his sustain with R (W him a lot especially when he has his chains from W almost filled up)”

NeRu1980 says “Đây là kèo khó chịu nhất khi cầm Panth sp, bạn nghĩ mình nhiều sát thương, bạn nghĩ cái choáng của bạn ngon, bạn lao vào và ăn ngay cái húc vào mồm. Bạn thích băng trụ? Bạn tự tin với cái khiên đỡ đòn? 1 cái hất tung và bạn chết cmn trên trời luôn. DKM trời sinh Panth còn sinh Bò nữa, nói chung cấm được là cấm, mà rank BK trở xuống ít gặp lắm nên thôi cũng an ủi phần nào”

GlacialWarlock says “Can be annoying if he's played well, but you should be tanky enough to quickly stun and throw him back into tower or river.”

ImSkr1Ll3x says “Dont get close to him without knowing his abillities are up. He can easily push you into his tower or into enemy jungler.”

FromTopToGank says “He has CC but you can catch their attention while your Carry hitting him”
0
mbo575 says “Alistar's CC is problematic for Pyke, if you go close, he will set you up for a kill for his ADC or team. If you try to all-in, he can knock away either your ADC or you towards their tower for an easy 2v1. Try not to engage if his abilities are up and you don't have much support from your allies. Very tanky, so executing him will be hard.”
0
Sona Aria says “After level 2, you can no longer walk up beyond your casters. Alistar will flash trample you and knock you into the enemy ADC, youe life will flash before your eyes over and over again. He's difficult to poke out due to his passive, and natural tankiness. His engage combo is point and click, and avoidable only by flash or zhonyas. His ultimate cleanses your ultimate, and he can dive extremely well. Your only chance in this lane is to abuse him level one with chords and autos, and getting level two before them to create health advantages. ”
0
Haezard01 says “If he engages he has no way out, if he doesn't engage you can poke and busrt him, make sure to play safe still, because a good headbutt-pulverize can change the laning phase. Still in the late game you outscale because of the damage output and tankiness you bring with your passive.”

ZAZO says “He is the tanky support that you never want as an opponent. He heals, stuns, tanks.”

SetsumiV1 says “If you can just stay out of range of his knockup combo, you should be fine.
TIP: You can polymorph him while he is charging at you to cancel his combo”

Dingye888 says “Alister have really good cc, he can easily cancel your w by head butting you or q to cancel your engage, Always to be careful engaging near his tower. Squishy early tho.”

TeflonAmetkus says “Alistar can knock soraka up in the air and stunlock her if he synergizes with his adc well. Be Extremely careful and stay behind your ADC.”
0
Saethwyr says “The Nice thing about melee engage supports is that while taric has an okay engage, he excels at counter-engaging into an all in, especially if they focus the carry over him. Even better, alistar's cc mainly relys on him sticking on one target, so you force him to either get you or the carry out of the picture, and in early fights taric will almost always win a 1v1 against a carry while alistar will not.”

liteon132 says “He counters your engage, but you can also counter his with your E. It's a skill matchup.”
0
Better Call Phil says “Hard engage. He can lock you down and rend you absolutely useless.
With some practice, you can dodge his W+Q combo with a quick E away from him. Done correctly, he will get stunned and you can pull him back into your team/turret as he has no abilities.
Relic Shield/Aftershock”

FRIZFOREVER says “instant aoe engage. pretty boring to play agaist. juts take comet and sit on adc all day. u can go out only for passive or if he used his combo.”

Quiet Allure says “He can stop your ult by ground smashing, but you pretty much poke him outta lane especially when there is an ezreal as their adc.”

NO.

MasutaKokoBot says “Alistar is not much of a threat to you, just stay back and away from his dive range and you will be fine. Rely on your ADC to poke the enemy while you just heal them up from incoming trades.”

YungRichGrandmas says “Your Q and R are direct counters to Alistar's entire kit. You get to poke him for free using your W + auto”
0
DrunkenWolf says “He has some sustain and his engage is very effective against Zyra, play as safe as possible and don't underestimate his damage.”
0
Hanjaro says “This is Pykes hardest matchup. Alistars strength over Pyke is his quick engage on his carries while Pykes reactive CC is relatively slow. Vs Alistar you never want to stack near your carry which is normally your best location for quick peel. Alistar combo will CC you both and you will potentially both die if you stand close. Position away from Alistar try to bait his combos on yourself when his AD is out of range for followup to provide a safe laning experience for your carry. You CAN look for trades on Alistar as long as you are not pulling him into combo range of your carry with enemy carry in range to follow up on your carry.”

Nunus Blueballs says “Good engage but you have solid disengage with Q. don't waste your Qs in this lane”

Rozyrade says “Alistar is probably the biggest threat for Yuumi in lane as she can't block any of his abilities for the adc.”

Kaeze Poulsen says “Even with his initiation, he's still a mele champ with no poke, so, it depends on the enemy jungler and how well your ADC can kite him.”

Viraxceon says “With his Abilities, He can run up to your ADC and stun them. Your Q deals less damage to up close enemies and he can become a tank.”

istaysmiley says “Yuumi has a hard time dealing with high CC/Poke champs. It forces ADC to be very passive & lose out on gold.”

Drlazerbeam says “This soon to be beef ball is a free lane phase for Nami. A decent Nami player should only be caught out by Ali if Ali gets help from jungle or if he flashes in. If Alistar does not get or recive that, Nami should have a easy time controlling this cow. ”

Drlazerbeam says “Ali does not far well against poke supports. The only way he wins this match up is if he all ins you. If you keep him weak by poking him down, like you should, this is a fairly easy match up.”
0
Fruxo says “Possibly quite threatening as he has a lot of CC and you are immobile. Try to stay out of his range and only go in if you are confident you can kill their ADC before they can finish you off. Stay out of his combo range.”
0
NirvanaBunny says “The cow isn't tough to deal with because he's a melee support who can poke during early game. He's pretty tanky and can engage, but you can easily disengage or just walk away because you're super fast.”
0
SawyerNelson says “You can spend abilities on Alistar pre level 6, killing him in lane is possible so long that you punish him when he is to far forward. If you engage onto him with E than Alistar has the advantage. Level 6 he can cleanse Leona's CC immediately with ULT. So spending abilities on his ADC becomes more valuable.”

N0ZOMI says “Poke him as much as you can until level 6. Ali has great chain CC and all in burst potential so be aware!”
0
SawyerNelson says “Alistar is very easy to kill early as you can poke him down with Q, he sustain sucks, and eventually all in with E when he moves to far forward.
If he combos use and you buffer W fast enough they can't hit you.
If he combos you post 6 you can just buffer ULT and flash on top of the enemy ADC”

FMLMOMENT says “Don't underestimate his all in , you can counter his engage. But beware if you miss your E on his engage it can be troublesome. Look to scale and wait for ganks. Be patient”

moon827 says “Nami can't really do anything to alistar damage wise, due to how tanky he is, but she can chain cc him for a while, which could allow for your adc to kill him.”

FwuffyMilk says “Try to poke him or his adc pre level 2, this will make his level 2 or 3 engage potentially dangerous for him.
Good Alistars will try to flash behind you then knock you towards their tower care for this. If you are destroying him in lane prepare for him to roam around the map a lot. ”
0
FwuffyMilk says “This match up comes down to how good the Alistar is and how good you can use your Whimsy to stop his engage. If you use Whimsy as he's flying towards your ADC it will just knock your ADC away effectively messing up Alistar's engage.”

ATrain001 says “His tankiness might be a bit too much if you fall behind in lane. ”
0
semisomniac says “You win by poke in the early levels, but once he hits level 3 you have to be careful not to get engaged on, because his all-in is almost unparalleled. His base health got a nerf in 8.21, so you can poke him even harder early now.”
0
Yukkine says “Obvious meat shield here offers free heals and the ability to watch him do nothing for ten seconds after each engage.”
0
MichelGamingMK says “You can poke Alistar well in lane but be aware of his W-Q combo.It will disable you for a fairly long time which leaves you vulnerable to aggressive engages from the enemy
His R also makes him very tanky (reduces all damage taken by 75%) so don't try to burn all your damage on him since he can still make a last stand with his ultimate even when he is low.”

Tipsy32 says “can be a difficult lane, but as long as you keep your range and get early kills from their overstepping. ”

Rasta Da Masta says “Even with Flash, you out range his initiation threat zone. Since you will be pushing him under tower, it will be difficult for him to tower dive you. With quick reflexes, you can cancel his WQ combo. And you don't have to kill this guy, just poke him with autos and you can stack money easily.”

oneandonlyDK says “He has a nasty engage. Look at his movement and try to predict when he is about to engage. Poke him as much as possible lvl 1, but at lvl 2+ you want to take advantage of his CD.”

Guychk says “He has a lot of CC, and his ult is not something to take lightly of. If you think he is about to go on your ADC throw out a Q to where you ADC is, that way when he Headbutts your ADC you can catch him midair, and he will be CC'd. You can also Flay him to cancel his Headbutt. Make sure you peel for your ADC and you can win this matchup. ”

Jeroen R8 says “If Alistar goes in for his E,Q combo, you can flay him out of it. Timing this right requires some practice though. Alistar has a lot of lane pressure simply by being in range of his Headbutt ability.”

ff20orfeeding says “Depends on skill and pairing. Unless he goes in early and gets way ahead they will lose. Superior poke/range and ability to shield can give you the advantage. Poke and distance is the key.”

Saecriru says “This match up can be played in many different ways, but Alistar can be a huge problem in this lane when you go to engage, and it can backfire easily.”
0
KhaliDino says “This guy is an OOF for bard. One of few matchups where u take guardian and match him as best as you can. Guardian will help save you from his all ins, and reduce his burst when he combos. His W range is greater than your auto attack range so you can only hit this guy with Q's , and if you ever plan on autoing him you have to consider what would happen if he combos you since HE WILL BE ABLE TO COMBO YOU. He will threaten you with an all-in in lane, and have the same roaming potential as you out of lane. The one advantage you have is that your Ult can disturb his engage. If an alistar finds a good engage you need to find a good ultimate to prevent followup. ”
0
O Takes Square says “Ok so of all the Supports you can face, he is one of the worse ones. He will poop on you once he gets his combo and pulling him with your passive is like MEH not a great idea since it lets him gap close..He can be really difficult in lane for sure especially if they get a kill”
0
KidoTakayoshi says “Pretty much every high engage champion it's a danger, but most of the people don't know how to play with him”

Gordove says “Alistar has a strong Crowd Control. Just all in if his combo has already gone. ”
0
I love Lun Lun says “Alistar is an undying cow which we cannot milk :(
Just kidding.He is very dangerous since he can exploit the fact that Soraka needs to get close to someone in order to heal but we can outsmart him.Our E is a valueable ally that we should only use in order to disengage him.Our E is the literal root of roots on him.Our silence will not let him complete his E with our root and that's how you fight an Alistar.Our Q is a slow which can be used against him as well,however if you think he has W and Q don't let both you and your ADC die.Let him combo and afterwards heal.”

Adorofu Hiteru says “Alistar combo W and Q make a big problem if you don't have flash”
0
the_dark_D says “Has good cc and a dash. Can be avoided using your e.”
0
Wasbeer says “Alistar is hard to counter, because he will CC chain you and early this will result in allot of deads.
Tip: Play carefull early game and try to keep you'r ADC healty. Past lvl 6 there is allot less kill potential and you should be fine.”
0
TSMSky says “You can harass him easily when his combo is down, but his auto-heal is a nuisance. If the combo lands on you or your ADC because you didn't interrupt with Q, you probably lose that trade. You can take Frost or Coin here.”
0
heyitsRainex says “He's dangerous in the early game due to his all-in. But if he decides to engage on you, you can try to go for the ADC whilst having E up.
He's a good engager, but not a good peeler.”
0
Synk1904 says “Tanky and has a lot of CC. Be careful and don't get to close to him.”
0
Zefirez says “On one hand cow is a very diffucult opponent. His all in is lightning fast and it's very hard to stop it in mid-dash with majestic roar. He also provides his adc with big sustain via passive.
That being said, his cooldowns are brutal, mobility pitiful and autos weak. If they don't get a kill on your adc pronto, they're in deep shit.
I recommend going ham on adc, unless you need to peel ali off to save yours from gettin trampled. Jungler ganks are also nice, as ali sucks at running away, and once he blows his load on engage, he's just a big hp punchbag that can't do jack.”
0
Qwerty19 says “He's just so tanky, forget about killing him post 6. When he engages jump on his adc, this will make it so our adc isn't taking damage from both ali and their adc and we can usually outdamage and ali trade.”

SpicySkelleton says “Only annoying fact is that he can tank up very fast, and he can toss you or tour adc in the firing line of his. Other than that just focus on his adc and push him back so he can't save them.”

Medeis says “As a support, he's very difficult to deal with with all of his cc and being tanky. ”
0
Lonxu says “If the lane is even and you get hit by the combo and E, it's gonna be a rough day.
I just want to push the lane and hurt Ali or the ADC so much that the all-in is not an great option for them or results in a kill-trade at least.
you shouldn't really cast your spells on the Ali after he finishes the combo as he has the extra resist from aftershock. So ideally kill the carry instead.

0
nicko9090 says “Alistar in good hand can be a pain in the ass to deal with as he can engage on your carry if you engage on their and basically make it 1v2 with his headbutt. If you try to engage on him , he can stun you and headbutt you to his carry or disengage you entirely by pushing you back. Bad Alistar however make this matchup a minor one as they either engage without follow or miss their W+Q combo. If you spot that they miss their combo, engage. It's the time to shine.”
