Ambessa Counters - Best Counter Picking Stats and Matchups for LoL Patch 16.4

DemicleasTTV says “Generally annoying and bad, scales ABSURDLY well but it weak early so shouldnt be too opressive, killable pre 11 afterwards she will not die UPDATE : Moved up to 5, honestly might be the worst matchup against good ambessa players.

Glenn Silver says “go cosmic insight. don't ever use E to start a fight. give her a W if she's in auto range and walk behind her. Only use autos now until you have full stacks. then you can give her a quick AA + W + Q combo (with animation canceling) and hook her back into the fight if she tries to escape. you can also buy serpents fang if you want, but not as 2nd or 3rd.”

Saneryus says “Same early game as irelia. Only you don't need ignite. Start E, and poke her if she gets in range. Then stack passive. Then walk up and contest (try not to do it in her wave though). Then shove cannon. Once 6, only fight her if wave is on your side and your passive stacked. If she engages on you without your passive stacked, simialr to irelia, you will lose. Level 16, you should auto win. Becareful as she has 4 dashes, 2 on Q, W, and E (technically 2 short dashes). Standard PTA | (AS / Adaptive / 65HP DBlade Q Max Swifty Rush”

zwartebliksem says “Flash + Ignite Not one of Kled's best matchups, but it is one of Ambessa's worst matchups. Ambessa will look for a short trade with her passive stack and grasp, then get out, but this won't work against Kled. She has no CC, so she cannot really run from you if you land your Q + E. Her cooldowns have a really long cooldown early, so look to punish her for using them. If Ambessa is holding her abilities, look for a short trade, even if it's a bad trade for you. Your abilities will be up sooner than hers, so zone her from the wave until then.”

TENSION019 says “This might sound funny, but I’ve never actually faced an Ambessa Top in a real game. Still, I can imagine what the lane would be like. Take Grasp of the Undying and Ignite. Start with Plated Steelcaps as your first item. She’s quite an unbalanced champion early on, so avoid extended trades and play safe in lane. Try to use your R to kidnap her and toss her under your turret. She’ll likely escape quickly using one of her dashes, so to prevent that, you can cast your W slightly behind her escape route to block her path. But be careful because that’s a risky move, and missing it could backfire badly. If she has her shield up, don’t hit her she’ll reflect the damage back at you. Make sure to play around that and punish only when it’s safe.”

JB says “More broken champ. her q1 deals more at the edges so try to sidestep or dash out and her q2 deals crazy dmg to first enemy it hits so try to dodge it and stand behind minions if she manages her cooldowns well and spaces well generally is playing well you cant really kill her because of her crazy shielding , gap close and disengage power and % armor pen on ult she and she outscales you on top. But she can hardly kill you if you play smart. if you can hit w on her you win the trade but you need to use e to dodge her q. she also has long cooldowns early game and you can punish her easly punish her if she misteps. also you can cancel her dashes with your w and ult so you can lock her down quite effectively. if you ever get ahead it becomes much easier.”

RandumPersin says “Take conq, and this champ doesn't really do anything with her poor early game damage.

We get to statcheck her for most of the game, and that's almost always a winning recipe for the croc.”

asuratop1 says “Ritmo Fatal pra jogar Side Conquistador pra TF. (Escudo de Doran sempre) A lane é do Jax até o lv9, quando ela estiver de Eclipse fechado e 5 pontos no Q fica impossível de ganhar, se a Ambessa for boa. Sabendo disso, você tem que tentar abusar o máximo possível das fraquezas dela até o primeiro item, Ritmo Fatal é a runa perfeita pra isso. Eu recomendo rush de Fago+Couraça de pano pra você ter uma lane consistente, sempre desvie do Q2 dela e tente punir quando ela não tiver o W, é a unica forma de ganhar. Na side-lane, é o mesmo da matchup vs Aatrox, trocas curtas beneficiam a Ambessa, all-win beneficia o Jax. Melhor build para Side-Lane: Trinity > Tiamat > Presa da Serpente > Quebrapassos (bota de cdr) Melhor build para Team-Fight: Trinity, Céu Dividido, Zhonyas.”

ExiledRain says “Power level: This would be a skill matchip where Riven having a slight edge on early and it shift towards Ambessa as game goes on. Game plan: Her idea is to land abilities + AA so she can keep chaining them.But they can get dizzy jumping all the time and missposition themselves.So your plan is to look for early misspositioning and punishing it, you can fight her since lvl 1 but keep in mind she can jump in and out with poke, so dance around her damage and try to catch her.On lvl 6 you at all costs avoid being hit by her R which should be relativelly easy, then keep beating her. Tips: Her R passive gives her % Pen on each step so keep that in mind If she does not land and ability on anything she dont get refund and her chain is interrupted so in isolation making her miss her abilities is a big win, especially her R.”

If she has Electrocute, it's most likely best to give prio on first wave. - Ambessa works like Riven 1. Early game, Ambessa's ability cooldowns are your windows to trade 2. Her abilities are both her movement and damage - Stay healthy and play for the wave. Use mega timings to crash waves and deter dives.”

forsakn says “Levels 1–5: Ambessa’s early trades with her Q (Flame Strike) + autos can deal decent poke. Avoid standing in her fire zones and don’t overcommit to trades. Wave control: She pushes moderately with Q + autos. Let her shove while you farm safely under tower. Trading: Auto + E poke works well. If she tries to all-in, use Q + W to poke and create distance. Post-6: Her R (Inferno Unleashed) gives high burst and area damage. Maintain spacing and avoid getting caught alone. Summoner Spells: Flash + Teleport is standard. Ignite can help if she dives aggressively. Scaling: You outscale Ambessa mid-late game. Focus on farming safely and hitting your power spikes. Ambessa top is strong early with poke and burst. Respect her fire zones and R, poke safely, and by midgame you outclass her. Still a very hard matchup.”

Hoikatop says “Conqueror / Phase Rush Ghost + Flash or TP+Ghost Her Q cooldown is long early-game so you can bully her a bit, but you lose every 1V1 after 1st recall because she scales EXTREMELY hard with AD and ability haste, so after 1st recall focus on farming and scaling for 5v5. If she ults you, try and land W under your feet and kite away. You lose short trades and all-ins after she buys AD and CDR so just focus on farming to scale for 5v5.”

Be careful if you're ever low and go for an engage with your W, if she used an ability and tried to Auto Attack, it still goes off, her Autos are unstoppable.

Belle19 says “ALWAYS Q MAX Treat her like a harder Renekton, trades are short and punishing. After level 6: she can all-in off any small mistake, so respect her ult cooldown at all times (its pretty long early). Runes: Grasp → best if you know the matchup and can reliably dodge her Q. You can go even or slightly ahead in trades this way. Phase Rush → safer if you’re unsure; makes it much harder to get run down and feed. Her e and ult are massive slows and she usually builds voltaic into mundo so phase rush is the only way to make it playable if you cant straight up win a fight after laning phase Dodge her Q2 whenever possible, if you can't dodge at all just stand next to minions it does 50% damage to anything past the first target Look to outrange her poke and avoid any trade unless you have w up (but keep in mind if you use w to trade well, if she ults you after while ur w is on cooldown ur just dead) Like I said, she doesn’t have hard CC, but her slows are extremely heavy and can trap you if you misstep. So you cant just run past her later on like you can most champs in teamfights Matchup status: high-risk lane. Manageable if you dodge Q and respect her ult, but one slip post-6 can end the lane on the spot and she is one of the most snowbally top laners in the game”

Play to cleanse her SECOND E slow as cleansing the first will do nothing. Dont dump your damage into her W. Play short trades off of her CDs. Post 6 care she gets pretty strong with ult passive, and is able to make a lot of space. Probably invest in a serpents 2nd or 3rd unless someone else can. TLDR: Care lvl 1. Cleanse E2 slow. Dont dump dmg into her W. Care her ult. Serpents most likely needed to kill. Play off her cds.”

Deddy says “Ambessa non è chissa quale matchup, ma attualmente è molto overtuned come champion, dobbiamo stare attenti a non farci mettere i piedi in testa perchè se snowballa è la fine. Abusiamo il fatto che ha trade lunghi e giochiamo con la Wave, provate a bonkarla con W+Grasp+Sheen, attenti a trovare un modo efficiente di utilizzare la E senza farvi kitare troppo. Non forzate kill, finchè non sbaglia, scalate comunque bene. Potete prendere prio lvl 1 ma non fatevi baitare a sprecare la E perchè potra allontanarsi con la sua Q [[Cunning Sweep]]. Usatela solo se vi prova ad autoattaccare o fa la Q verso di voi. Ambessa prende alla sprovvista molti players, ma se conoscete bene il suo kit diventa molto più facile, sopratutto se trackate la sua W [[Repudiation]], il suo shield le fa vincere ogni trade, ma senza è molto più debole in trade veloci. Rune ed items a vostra scelta, in base a quanto conoscete il matchup, ma penso andare Grasp+Dshield sia la cosa migliore.”

I dont remember if her W is also Unstoppable. if he use E into u then u can buffer E to quick slam into wall. late game she destroys u due to how little her cds are and how much dmg she does, u cannot tank her also because she has armor pen in her ult passive.”

Sovereign Kitten says “She is currently being played as a fighter, not really too tanky or that overly difficult to really deal with as a solo laner, until players start playing her more effectively with itemization and proper understanding on the champions rotations. Regardless,, it’s when she catches you out while being backed up by her team that makes things extremely difficult due to her massive mobility that prevent you from being able to fully utilize your own mobility to side step and kite or at least try to kite her. Her roams are pretty devastating especially as a support, so you’ll need to make sure you’re warding deep and keeping tabs on that mini-map, she can ult over terrain and potentially catch you out and really ruin your whole day. ”

Smudey says “This champion is very new so it's hard for me to determine the difficulty of this matchup. It seems like she is weak early so you can abuse that. She is also very mobile and can dodge your E easly if you are too predictable, which is why you should stick to empowered Qs until you find a clear opening for a taunt (usually when she used her abilities).”

Anoying bro5 says “Try to predict her movement, similar to if you are chasing Kalista. Her directional changes will usually be parallel to your tower/her tower, so path according to her intentions (Chase you down or poke/retreat). Pre lvl 6 you will want to try and poke with your Q on vitals and Riposte her shielded W if she is engaging (it has the shortest and most visible dash). After lvl 6, her ult range is very long so if you are low HP try to predict it. If you predict succesfully, riposte behind you to stun her (similar to Yone Ult). Overall Riposte will make or break this matchup as your Riposte slows her passive attacks and dashes, but it is harder to land considering her dashes. Try to land Riposte early in lane before she can buy cooldown items.”

Houcs says “Be ready because this champion like to dash. And there is very likely she will dash into while being near your tower. Which gives you a good opportunity to pull her in. She can be deadly however if you fight outside of your tower. If you see her using her shield try not to hit her, rather just try dodge until it wears of. Also getting armor is a good counter to this because her Q does % hp dmg. ”

BigBallsLarry says “Pretty tough but skill matchup, if she's not shut down early she can outduel and dive you perma with her CRAZY W shield. Take Conq with ignite if confident, otherwise teleport. Rushing plated steel caps gets rid of a lot of her damage. You can parry backwards when she ults you to stun her, however pre 6 parry timing are pretty tough. Try to parry her 2nd Q, she will usually try to combo it after landing her E slow, or instantly after using her 1st Q. If you are experienced enough with the matchup, you can dance around her abilities and space her with your vital MS. Coup De Grace”

Shark of Void says “She can only kite you, but you can one shot her. Use R to interrupt her passive and kill her!”

forlid says “Ambessa is extremely oppressive in extended combat mainly because of the amount of dashes in her kit. Your best bet is to just farm and freeze the wave so that you can trade with her, eventually creating an opening with which you can kill her. Keep in mind that after lvl 6 she heals from all her abilities and that she gains armor pen. Building early armor against her is good since AD is all she can do. Take note of her W cooldown (basically K'Sante W) as she can negate an entire Q worth of damage off of you. Never overextend and try to keep the wave on your side and you should win.”

Banglas says “Skill matchup. Take Zhonyas as 2nd item, you can poke her to death but she can out burst you.”

Haxorr says “I thought this mu sucked at the beginning when she was released, but it's not that bad anymore. You get prio really easily, just stand by minions so she doesn't get the bonus Q damage. If you can bait her abilities out and dodge them, you can trade aggressively as she has really long CDs early. After 1 item it can be a bit harder to win this. Start DShield and bring Grasp, maybe go tank jax if ur feelin it.”

L0ganJG says “This champion can FARM YOU but use matchup knowledge to find random kills. If she ever R's you, buffer your E to put her into the wall. Sideways W her E and Q when possible. NEVER take her Q2 for free. ”

kagaroo says “🔴Skill Matchup🔴 Threat Scale: 7/10 ➡️Matchup is similar to Aatrox where you need to respect her mobility and play for super short trades. You cannot chase ambessa if she has all of her dashes up and you should play for perfect pillar placements because she cannot dash over it. The matchup is free if you can snowball but ambessa slowly outscales trundle in the later game where she starts building a lot of damage items. Easy matchup if you have experience and patience but it can be daunting the first few times. ‎‏ ➡️Rule of thumb:‎‎‎ ‏‏‎‏‏‎ Bad ambessa vs Bad Trundle ➡️ Trundle favoured‎‎‎‏‏ Average ambessa vs Average Trundle ➡️trundle favoured Good ambessa vs Good Trundle ➡️ 50/50 skill matchup.”

Raen says “SHe will roll head on her keyboard and you cant do much about it. Gotta move and predict her spells shortly before she will start casting them. Try to sidestep R. Antiheal + serpant fang helpful vs her. If she misses her combo and dashes close to you its ur sign to fight her.”

Zagreus16 says “This Champ in my opinion is another one of setts worst matchups. She has a dash, more dashes, oh and dont forget MORE dashes, has a block, armor pen, and a unstoppable ult. She is now my perma ban and is way more tough to deal with than Renekton in laning phase and late game. Its very hard to "correctly" build against her cause if you want to build defensive and buy a bramble vest well she has passive armor pen on top of the black cleaver shes definitely gonna rush so rushing armor is pretty much useless. Plated steelcaps boots help a good bit against her attacks since it counts as most auto attacks. Its better to just build normally with stride first to try and catch her but its pretty much going to be impossible since all fights are gonna be if she wants to due to her insane mobility. Just perma ban this champ if you dont want the headache.”

Haxorr says “I like Doran's Blade + Conqueror in this matchup with the Celerity setup. Ambessa isn't too big of an issue until later on in the game, but her early game is super weak so look to punish accordingly. Her CDs are really long early on. I try to parry either her ult or her empowered autos, if you just hit parry on her it usually will be a good trade, but that's hard to do since this champ is so mobile. Because of her mobility she's very good at kiting away from vital procs, so be wary of that and punish her CDs. Overall lane isn't too bad.”

SUPERPENGUIN69420 says “Ambessa can shred you but she needs to stay close to you and has no stuns so it's also your advantage, her R makes it a bit complicated because of it's passive that gives healing.”

CactEyez says “This champion is very over-tuned, sticky, high damage and just broken. You are strong in team-fights against her if you peel, but 1v1s will be hard at all stages of the game unless you get a lead. Use R when she uses her Shield, so it times out inside your belly and can be ignored. | Start Items: - D.Shield -> Dark Seal | Tank Items: - Swifties -> Heartsteel | AP Items: - Swifties -> Heartsteel -> Riftmaker”

Bourne212 says “Try to trade at lvl 2, afterwards it will become very difficult to win trades. At lvl 3 she has 3 dashes to dodge your W and gains a shield that will mitigate most of you're damage, shove her under tower and look for roams. Avoid her all in post 6, you probably will lose going forward.”

Houcs says “She is a threat in lane but you outperform her in teamfight cause if Ambessa get's cc'ed she is doomed. But have distance from her so you avoid her Q because it deals % hp dmg. Also remember she heals alot and can shield incase you try to go and kill her.”
