Tips Against Katarina in Middle Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
“She plays very passive at lvl 1, farming safely with Q. If she uses Q to harass you, just zone her from CS. Try to harass as much as possible with your [[Steel Tempest]] at early levels. When she gets lvl 3, she can all in you. You can predict where her daggers will land, so move away from it before she can [[Shunpo]] to them. You have a huge advantage if you both fight in a minion wave, as you can dash around and dodge most of her abilities. When she hits 6 and ults, you want to [[Wind wall]] and then [[Sweeping Blade]] through her, so the wall blocks out most of the damage. **When** you are going for the tornado, wait using it and bait out her E, or beyblade her. ”
“If your team is all squishy or has no cc, I suggest dodging in champ select. You need to E her if she engages so that she wastes her Shunpo earlier. If she starts to spin, Q+W+Q her as quickly as you can; the less time she spins for the less damage she does. Don't let her Shunpo onto you, as you don't want to waste your ult on yourself. Remember: Summoner's Rift is a 5V5, not a 1v1. You don't have to stay in lane and suffer a losing matchup!”
“Move away from her daggers and try to burst her in teamfights. Keeping the wave at your side of the lane or shoving her in is the best way to play out this lane. Just use your superior waveclearing ability to prevent fighting her. Don't underestimate her early damage, but she shouldn't be able to stick on you. If she dashes on you, use your EWQ combo to proc Phase Rush or Overload and kite her out.”
“Katarina likes being pushed in early levels because she can cheese at lvl 1-3 and pick up some kills on bad opponents. Don't hard shove the wave but slow push it, so if she decides to engage on you, your minion wave will be bigger and do more damage to her. Walk in the opposite side of where her (Q)dagger is going, so you don't get hit by the AOE damage whenever she steps on the daggers on the ground. If you succesfully dodge the daggers on the ground, you win all trades because her damage is gone. Just make sure that you don't use your ball blindly while her E shunpo is up, because she can easily dodge it. Force and bait her abilities with autoattack, and then use your abilities as soon as she uses shunpo to a location. There is a short delay before she can use shunpo again.”
“MELEE = PUSH EARLY (LEVELS 1-2) - CARE FOR GANKS! (SPAM Q'S TILL 50-60% MANA).
Doran Ring + 2 Pots + Another Ring + early MR + Merc / Banshees. Get also Refillable if those 2 pots were not enough. Get Time Warp Tonic/Minion Demat for surival/fast push.
Hardest matchup by far because she can just roam as a 0-2 on your bot and even if you ping they might die for no reason/int. I perma ban this champion because its the easiest to lose to WITHOUT DIRECTLY FEEDING HER (she's also impossible to kill on lane if she's a dia+ otp).
Survivable with an early magic resist item such as Null Mantle or Negatron Cloak and also Exhaust for her ult or Barrier/Heal.
I recomend Exhaust because we don't have a hard CC spell to nullify her ult down ( she will most often flash+jump+ult when the CC spells are down anyway if she's good, but Exhaust can deal with that) .
When she does not have a dagger already set up on the ground go and Q her but stay far away from her daggers.
Later on in teamfights unless she is a very good player she will struggle because of your Exhaust and other CC spells from your teammates.
Target her down and you should be okay if she was not overfed by this point. Her roaming potential is on par with yours minus the ultimate, so be extremely careful on both roaming and FOLLOWUPS on her roams.
NEVER try to outplay a Katarina simply because of her dashes. Play relatively safe until 6 then try to do a good roam, but beware of the followup.
You should roam only if your teammates will remain above 50 percent HP after your gank (!!!!) - so that when she follows they would actually have a chance to survive and also Katarina would not get any resets.
Ping like a maniac anytime she roams !!! Ban her if you lose more than twice and she gets fed on bot/top and you could not follow (or roam first and do your best on ganks OR ask for camp from your jg but a good kata will just jump back to base).”
“REACTIVE lane, not proactive. At level 1, I'll E-AA and after that I'll only poke with E. At level 2 she usually looks for an opportunity to Q+E+AA+dagger passive+electrocute and burst me down, so I take W second and negate a lot of her damage while I out-trade her with E-AA (and I keep autoattacking as she runs away). Fighting in my minion wave also draws aggro and makes it harder for her to win trades. At level 3 she definitely wants to go in, so I stay out of her Q range - unless I have significantly more HP than her (or have Barrier up) and want to bait her. I'll shield myself as she jumps and will use E and keep autoattacking her, holding my Q until she has no more E resets. Most of the time she forgets I still have Barrier and keeps fighting me. She's the ultimate snowballing champion, so she's constantly looking for roams and I need to keep the pixel bush towards bot lane warded, or my own jungle to see her if she takes that path.”
“In laning phase you should avoid pushing after the first 2 waves because she has a really strong level 3. The moment you use E, she will jump on you, so don't waste it until her jump is on CD. Lategame you will oneshot her if you hit E, but if you miss it, you are dead. ”
“Katarina is a really high risk high reward champion that can easily get out of control. Trade carefully with her early and never walk near a dagger on the ground if you want to trade with her. Also if she is chasing you and lands a Q, do not run directly away into the dagger about to be placed, but instead turn and walk towards her. This may seem weird, but it will serious drop off the damage she can do to you. Never underestimate her all in damage after level 6. You win this matchup by landing short QW trades on her when she is trying to cs with her E.
Recommend: Barrier and Dmg Build. Use the Vs. AP Assassin build only if behind, but a banshees is definitely an option in this matchup. ”
“Tough to lane against due to her ability to zone you away with her daggers. Landing a wild cards on her is nigh impossible due to the mobility she has with shunpo. She can't easily follow roams either, but be careful because she can turn up to a fight and clean up very easily. You can gold card her later on to stop her ultimate, so you can win out later.”
“you win her easily, when she jumps on you and you are level 3 just go for e and w
if you are lvl 6 ult her and then go for e and w”
“Skilled match-up, she has really good engage level 3 even when her E recently got nerfed. Don't play to aggressive, you could easily get punished. If she ever R's try to stun her with your R or W. They have low cast time. ”
“Katarina has some insane damage, especially if she snowballs. However, her daggers help you predict how she will engage and you can stop her ulti with both Q and W. Did I also mention how your passive means she can't reset her cooldowns if you're killed? If you are fast enough, this lane should be a breeze. ”
“Play this match-up reasonably passive and don't give her free kills. Harass her as often as you can when she goes to last hit a minion. Stun her whenever she tries to ulti you.
DO NOT use (R) Tibbers to stun her as there is a high chance she can leap away before it lands. Instead, use your (Q) Disintegrate to stun her and then hit her with (R) Tibbers.
Be aware of her leaving lane for roaming kills. This often happens and she will get fed from other lanes if you don't keep track and ping or follow her.
Katarina is squishy and you should have no problem 100 - 0 her after level 6.”
“care her cutlass / gunblade spike
She will look to roam alot so give your team vision. you outscale her really hard later on. Make sure to keep checking her inventory for a cutlass / gunblade. once she gets it you can no longer walk up as she will slow you and all in you.
go electrocute corruption potion timewarp tonic and biscuits in this lane, you need sustain. you can oneshot her. if you struggle in this matchup you can go abbysal mask and spellbook resolve like vs Fizz”
“Hold stun to interrupt her ult, and try not to go anywhere without vision.”
“Look for trades early and avoid stepping on top of her daggers. Hard to win after level 6 or if she builds Seeker's Armguard first. ”
“don't let her get level 3 before you, because she can combo and kill you early and snowball off you. you win against her, if your reaction time is crisp you can sit near a dagger and wait for her to engage.”
“ Be aware of where she throws her daggers, and if she can trade on you freely without giving you a chance to answer. You can often try to bait her by standing on her daggers and forcing her to take several autos if she wants to use them. Be diligent in telling your team where she is, because no matter how far ahead you get on her, she can still roam bot and get a triple kill and be back into the game. ”
“Do not push the lane early game. She can all-in you from lvl 2 and win the trades. If you freeze the lane infront of your tower, she can't kill you. If the katarina doesn't have cleanse, she should be a free kill if you ping your jungler to come.”
“Land a grenade as soon as she Ults or comes into melee distance. Unless Kata gets fed early she should be easy to deal with due to being a melee AP assassin.”
“If she tries to all in you you can try to throw your bubble on to where she will land so she will fall asleep pretty quickly. Bursts pretty hard so play causiously”
“This is a skill match-up but you need to be carelful of taking loads of free harass from her (Q). If she walks up to last-hit a minion you can possibly trade her. If you are really not confidnet you can consider taking exhaust and use it on her when she ulti's you, I personally wouldn't bother though. You can use your troll-poll (E) when she ulti's you, then use the rest of your combo to kill her. Zhonya can be a nice item to pick up early too, especially if the top-laner / jungler are AD champs.”
“Very easy late game of course but early game don't stand near the daggers and when she E's out of position punish her for it. Her all in isn't as strong as yours. If either of you decide to all in then dodge Kat's ult with your Pool and Kat will die spinning and doing nothing.”
“She places targets for you to bind her at. She can't do much more than try and proc electrocute and hope for the best.”
“Since she can jump straight to you, I'd highly recommend not using your E aggressively. Wait till she ever jumps on you, then use it. Don't use your E in a panic otherwise this'll get you killed.”
“Katarina can do a lot of damage, but puts herself in a lot of danger to do it. Keep an eye out for whenever she looks like she going in for an engage, and save your stun for it, since her diving in to damage makes her very easy to hit with it. If she gets ahead, she'll be an issue, but almost all of her character depends on her getting ahead to be useful. so as long as you can avoid feeding her, it should be fine. ”
“Another skill based match up, but you can go hard on her early game as long as you avoid passive daggers. Chains work well on Katarina.”
“Good old Katarina, I guess anyone who plays mages knows how annoying her jumps can be, together with her damage output. I rated her as really high, even though really precise gameplay, can make this matchup quite easy. It means, that this lane might go really well or really badly. If you position yourself right and farm, she shouldn't be able to kill you and if you wait for right moment, you can even get kill 1v1 against her, but as I said, you just have to play perfectly. What is problem though, is her roaming potential. If she gets kills from other lanes, you mostly can't simply follow, unless you have really well warded jungle and you know where you are going, but mostly it's not worth it. So it's a bit of risk, but in lategame again, if you position yourself right, you might get win condition on your side again after you hit level 16, because she will have problem dealing with your poke and even get on you if you stand far away. If you get your Lich Bane, you can even oneshot her in a single combo, unless she uses Zhonya. To wrap it up - matchup is hard, but playable as any other and here it's really important to play it right - then it will become way easier than it seems to be.”
“At the most fundamental level, she is melee, and she will definitely use some abilities on minions. Just make sure to not get hit by free poke which isn't even aimed at you. Punish her cooldowns and you have the upper hand while in an auto attack combat.”
“Assassin Ap with a lot mobility.
Morellonomicon First Item.
Magic resistance can be a good choice .
Wait her mistakes for all in her . Harass and Poke her during all laning phase.”
“This match up at first seems hard but only got easy as time went on. you know where she is going to teleport and can poke her down easy since she is melee. As long as you landed a few q's before her all in you win in dmg. ”
“This one can go either way depending on how well they know their champ in the matchup but if you know it just as well you should be able to come out on top. As for your team though, maybe not so much.”
“Trinity Force Wits End with resolve page. Boneplating is the key vs Katarina. You can take Exhaust to make her even more useless.”
“You have the advantage in Early Game so you shouldn't let her farm, she will change position with E so try to predict her, if she gets fed in Late Game try not to spend your R on her Zhonya's”
“rly mobile - hard to hit spells. stay away from daggers!”
“D-Blade. Katarina is very passive lvl 1, as she doesn't really have any way of doing anything. She will just farm with Q and setup for lvl 2. Zone her off cs early as much as you can try to poke her with Q or go in if she tries to get farm. Get away from her daggers until you have an item advantage. You have a massive advantage with a minion wave, but so does she. Make sure she doesn't have E up so she can't dodge your nado, or just beyblade her so she can't react fast enough (watch out for Faker out here dodging it). Once she goes for all-ins at level 6 you can windwall her R and if she keeps her r going after that like a sped just smack her and get as much damage off as you can. Also if you have nado you can just E+Q her and kill her if she doesn't have Shunpo reset. Good chance you win just watch out for her all-ins and watch out for ganks. Outscales you depending on comps. Take Conq. ”
“This is a skill match-up but you need to be carelful of taking loads of free harass from her (Q). If she walks up to last-hit a minion you can possibly trade her. Zhonya can be a nice item to pick up after your gun-blade, especially if the top-laner / jungler are AD champs. Consider starting boots and health potions as they will enable you to dodge her daggers easier. You can try to bait her ultimate and then shroud yourself as you run away or (R) onto a minion to escape it. Once her ultimate is on CD, you can go for the kill. Otherwise, if you have a jungler with hard CC they can lock down her ultimate as you fight during a gank. She will roam, be sure to follow or be ahead of her.”
“Katarina is one of the champs that only high elo players can benefit from. If she plays aggresively, she wins with you most of the time, shes ungankable if you dont have a strong jungler. If you play vs bad Katarina you can kill her at every stage of the game, you can rush banshee if you feel like it.”
“She jumps often so it can be hard to land your stun, be carful. It's a really good matchup, but for her”
“No counter play, if she takes a kill, or if she puts you under turret, you lose your lane and you have to roam to get kills.”
“Way too mobile for you to ever hit your CC. She will also simply outdamage and outheal you. Avoid her at all cost.”
“To be honest, this champion is broken. She cannot die if she has Hextech Gunblade. Kill her when you are in advantage with items or just wait for your Jungler to gank.”
“Kat level 1-5 doesn't do too much damage, if you can push in early waves to get level 2 first and constantly harass her with Q. If you do this, then you should be able to get level 6 quicker and with ignite and ult be able to kill her. If she gets a kill on you early this could switch the threat to a major as Kat can deal a lot of burst damage. ”
“Exhaust and she is useless. If you're insecure get Hexdrinker.”
“Watch when will she will go to her blades. That way you can hit her with your E, but a good Katarina will be so active that it will make landing your E harder.”
“Katarina is not a bad matchup for Talon, as your melee Q screws her up super hard. Stay away from daggers and try to predict where she will use her E for an easy passive proc.”
“That's not hard at all to win Katarina, just Windwall her Q, use your own Q when she comes near and disable her Ultimate by E on minions / Knocking her up. You can even make her rage quit by following her roams in bot lane and get a triple kill with your support.”
“The matchup is in your favor unless she starts with longshord, she can actually kill you early levels with longsword if you do a mistake. But should be pretty free unless she goes bot and gets a triple kill :)”
“Her reset is the only thing you should be afraid.. and her damage..Try to be careful and focused to her daggers on the ground. whenever she R use your W. EXHAUST IS A MUST HERE.”
“Always look for extended trades and block the most of her damage with windwall”
“Dshield/Sword + pots
I recommend going sorcery secondary with null orb and whatever other rune you'd prefer from that tree.
Post 6 just pull her with Q or E out of her ult. This is a very easy lane as long as she doesn't get ahead of you.”
“Just don't stand inside her knifes. This match up will be decided on who can go in, trade and go out winning. Just E out of her Ultimate and that's it. ”
“Skill matchup. play around where her daggers are and q her as soon as she jumps on you. You can cancel her ult with yours or your Q”
“Her movement's are highly predictable since they're pretty dictated by her daggers. You can also cancel her ult with either your Q or your own ult, so as long as you don't waste them willy nilly, she put's herself at high risk to try to all in you. The biggest issue is just the somewhat unpredictability of her daggers bounce. can cost you your passive if you're a bit closer to minions then you realize. ”
“Easy like hell to kill her
Torment her with your Q on lvl 1 when u get lvl 3 kill her with full combo and ignite.
”
“Katarina can burst you, but you can stun her and burst her as well if she positions poorly. Play safe and wait for her to make a mistake.”
“dont stand on her daggers and use your q to poke her in lane a lot also auto attacks if she used her q ”
“poke her down so she can't farm, she will get useless. Wait for her ult to use ur W”
“-High burst damage
-Had a blink
-She can easily dodge your abilities
”
“HoB/Sword. This lane is balanced on a razor's edge and you'll need to focus up early. Other champions are able to snowball a game off of 3 or 4 kills, but this bitch only needs 1 to start murdering everyone. You CANNOT die. Period. Katarina lives and dies by her dagger placement. The trick to beating her is getting a feel for where her Q is going to land and being anywhere but there when it does if you aren't in a position to trade. It will always land a short distance behind the first target it hits. Once you have that figured out, you can farm with relative confidence and safety while you wait for a favorable moment. Hail of Blades with skilling Q at level 2 completely out-trades her and will make her scared to walk up for farm. If you're healthy, keep your mouse over that dagger and stand in range ready for her to E in. Hit her with a point blank E and unload on her. She will absolutely MELT and will freak out trying to retreat. The lane dynamic changes rather rapidly if you mess this up and let her escape without retaliation, though. It's best to wait until level 3 to begin trading, though. If you're down any health at all, you are on the defensive. Remember, you CANNOT die to her. She can take many different keystones. DH is the easiest to handle, followed by Conq, with Electrocute being the toughest. If she Q’s you from max range, you can safely W and run back. If she Q’s you from midrange, run anywhere BUT back. The dagger will land right where you’re running and she will be in range to E and chunk you down. Do not ever attempt to tank her ult. It does too much damage and you will die. Either interrupt it with your ult or flash the hell away. If you decide to all in her from range and not hold ult to stop hers, you’d better be damn sure you kill her before her ult gets more than a few ticks off. Don’t go for a roam if she can follow you. The last thing you want is to lure her to 3 half health teammates and set her up for a free triple. If she starts to follow, it's best to set up in a bush and catch her facechecking rather than let her get to a big fight. ”
“Katarina can burst you quite easily, but if she makes a mistake with her dash, you can easily catch her out and burst her. You can also cancel her ultimate with 3 of your abilities.”
“Now that Conqueror is Kat's ideal runes, killing her will be more difficult. Unless she brings Electrocute. Still always try to hit two W's and Q.”
“Really hard to deal with. She can escape your cage and burst you. If she is playing conqueror then she won't die easily. Just try to farm and stack safely and try to call you jungler if you think you can kill her.”
“like leblanc she will never be hit by q if shes competent, wait in bushes to jumpscare her.”
“No way to cancel her ultimate, can sustain with gunblade to negate your R execute. alot of mobility to dodge your Q.”
“Pretty even with Kat, but a similar situation to Zed. Try to bait her dashes, and then Q or E.”
“Can take you down very easily.
Depends on the player”
“Should not make it out of Ban-Phase.”
“Katarina is once champ I just always perma ban because IMO she is one of the best champs for solo q and I just have bad experience with her Katarina mains hate fizz and fizz mains hate katarina. You should win the laning phase all you have to do is q auto w proc electro and bonus if you e her dagger. if she takes conq is easier for you to abuse her just don't long trade with her because then she just out trades you with damage and healing ”
“awww did the little girl get the horns?”
“If you can predict her E, you basically counter her.
The only problem is that she will call for gank so get a control ward.”
“her problem is the same as zeds, her mobility, be very careful of her daggers and their placement when going for a trade”
“Dodge her Daggers if she ults just pool it. Poker her to about half health, if you are lvl 6 and have a large rod just all in she cant do shit
”
“Her high mobility and high burst can be a problem”
“One of the worst TF matchups. You have to be much better to win against her. Yes you have the range advantage, but she can basically get on top of you whenever she wants to and you have hard time returning damage against her. The key to winning against Katarina is levels 1-2. After that it is kind of over for you. ”
“Cass is biggest counter to Kata. Land Q while she is jumping to win trade. When she is ulting remember where was her face before ult, to easy stun +miasma for kill.”
“This match-up is not really hard for Lux, just play safe early and don't get her fed. Run TP to follow her if she roams a lot.”
“Once she hits 3 and 6 she owns the lane respect her and stay back and farm. Heal is highly recommended for this matchup.”
“Beware of your surroundings. Until she gets her Hexblade, she poses no real threath. Use electrocute.”
“Always be aware of her daggers. She can jump to them (dealing damage), which in turns almost completely resets her jump again. She is very mobile, so be careful when blowing your combo. ”
“You can easily cancel any of her combos with your Stun and get invisible to avoid her Q on you, but be careful, she can still Ult you, even if you're invisible.”
“Take PTA or Comet. Don't stand near her daggers. The range around her daggers is somewhat deceiving, so be sure to give them more space than needed.”
“This match-up is pretty even. Katarina relies on her blades and Ekko on his predictions. If you land the perfect W-Ability on her, you will dominate. Should you fall behind though, she will turn into a threat. Kata can easily punish you and his hard for your jungler to gank. Therefore minimize your mistakes and punish hers.”
“If you hit your e, easy kill, if she dodges it, easy death.
Make sure you wait until she e so you can hit your e”
“Strange enough as it is, Viktor can actually murder Katarina. W>R onto her R post-6 and she has to either react with a dash somewhere else, where you can promptly blast her away with abilities, or take the stun to the face. On the off chance she tries to dash on you, make sure you don't path onto her daggers, as that's where a majority of her early combo is. Spam ping when she's missing, as it only gets out of hand when she comes back to lane with 3 kills from bot.
Preferred rune: Aery/Electrocute”
“Katarina can kite akali with her e but you can fight her before she gets ult to win easier. ”
“Your charm cancels her ult so have it ready when you know she has her ult up.”
“Average Kats are okay..but good Kats are hell. even if you try to predict where she goes, she just dashes all over the place and its difficult to land a single root. Bully her lvl 1-3 and then try to bait out her ult because since you have to get close to ult, she'll probably try to counter it by ulting and btw, that thing hurts a lot.”
“Laning phase is easy. You win trades and get more CS than her. Poke her so she can't CS. Follow her when she roams.”
“You easily counter her in laning phase but dont let her get fed from side lanes, look up to following her ganks or roam before she does waring youtr team about her”
“You can easily kill her if you stop her R or use your E to get away from her and than you can all in.”
“Skill Matchup
You can poke her down easily and not have to worry till Level 3 where she can equally trade with you if not better.
At 6, You really need your stun for her ult or you're in trouble so keep it up instead of using Q to cs if you feel she wants to go in.
Just don't play too aggresive.”
“Her ultimate can kill your entire team if you miss your stun
Your ultimate only saves 1 person from her ultimate.”
“Not too tough to deal with.
You're mostly auto attacks and point and click abilities so she can't dodge most of your damage.
If she ults you you can just ult her away and cancel her ult.
Run exhaust and just auto her to death.”
“Can escape your combo if she's good.
Same deal as LeBlanc. Keep an eye on those knives and she can be reduced to a laughable attempt at an Assassin.”
“More info in the match up section”
“Katrina is not that hard to go against, because you can trade evenly with her. That said, she can still do a bit of damage though can be easily jumped. A good strategy for her is to bait her to grab the knife, but as soon as she does proc electrocute.”
“Abyssal Rush
Summoner Spells: Barrier/Flash----

”
“Even though she is AP you can normally out trade her and all in her due to how squishy she is. Get Bramble for anti heal.”
“Ouch!
One of the hardest counters to Vk if you try to get toe to toe with her.
She can easily dodge all of your skill shots and do tons of damage to you.
Play safe and smart against her.
Wave clear to keep her from roaming and killing your teammates.
If you hit a good knock up and he dash is down you can kill her.
Watch out for her knives!”
“if not for early cheese with conq+long sword and roam potential she is 1/2, you cancel her ulti with your q, you outscale her
fleet+dom, electro if confident”
“if shes not amazing, you'll win.”
“I personally dont like playing against a kata but dodge her knifes with your e and you have a chance to 1v1 her”
“Play safe against Katarina. She will try to Q you everytime. Be the first one to bully. ”
“If she ever jumps on you blow her up.”
“know the position of her daggers. Poke her down. Ult when she ults.
Take electrocute or conq.”
“Be careful of her early game damage. After level 3, you can go for small combos that triggers electrocute. After level 6, you win. If she ults, R away or interrupt it with your Q.”
“She is very mobile and can be a struggle hitting your combo on. She shines against champs without no hard cc, like Zed. She can build Cloths into Armguard without really sacrificing anything. Use W or Flash to escape when she use R, or if you have a chance to kill her, you can R her R to negate a lot of the dmg, and follow up with your combo which should be easy to hit as she stands still when she ults. ”
“Difficulty: Medium
More information in the section "When should/shouldn't you pick Diana?"”
“Make sure you don't use W too wildly, since you need Gold to stop her ult.”
“If you are able of predicting where she will E to (for an example: her daggers). You are basically in a free lane. Just hit her with your Q and then follow up with the rest.”
“Pure skill matchup.
Block her q's before 6 with windwall.
After she hits 6 save windwall for her r.”
“She can be annoying to stun with her movement. Play agro under your turrets and get ready to stun her when theirs a dagger near you. Also you can cancel her ult with your E.”
“dont get to close or she will teleport on you and you better hope your W is not on cool down. or can be relly bad at dogging and your win lane verry difrent kats out there”
“As long as you play safe and don't give her a kill early you should be fine.”
“This is a very easy matchup for Akali. Kata has propably the worst level 1 in the game, so try to poke her hard level 1 to 3. At 6 she gets a little bit of power, but so do you. Demolish her early and don't let her farm and win is yours.”
“Super easy matchup. Ult when she ults. Stay away from her dropped daggers. And since katarina cant wardjump no more she doesent really have a way of getting away as long has you fight her while her minions are far away.”
“She can be kind of tricky to fight but put your bubble where she is going to teleport to.”
“just E if she ult and then go all in, R - Q - W ignite and she will die”
“Since the changes on Diana, you can no longer stop her ult every 15 -20 seconds, it's now very difficult to win this matchup. hold your ult ONLY for her ult, unless you can guarantee the kill”
“poke her and watch out for her daggers because if you get in range of one shes going to all in you and wait on your e to see which spot shes going to dash on you ”
“Pure skills match-up. You just have to avoid her daggers and ping her roams. If you get ahead you win, if she gets ahead, gg.”
“Kata is not that powerful late game just play safe at the begining, poke her whenever you can and try to predict her e by watching where her daggers land to hit her with your spells, after 6 it should easy to jump her”
“You can block her R with your wind wall and you can just trade damage while you are behind wind wall.
You can also block his Q-s with wind wall.”
“Simple matchup, stay away from daggers and pool her ult. You win at every stage of the game.”
“no la veo tan dificil, tenes una ventana para tirarle e cuando salta a cuchillos. jugale chill no seas boludo
elec dh cometa?”
“Can easily dodge E and Q, and solo kill you if you do not hit anything.”
“Stab her to death , try to bait her on daggers early on (and use e when she dashes in) also save your q for AFTER she dashes”
“Stay off her daggers and watch out for the level 2 Katarina combo because it will put you to half health. Abuse her hard at level 1 and play safe afterwards. Once she uses q or w it goes on a long cooldown so poke her when she uses them. Also if she uses her shunpo without getting a dagger you have about 12 or more seconds to punish her because it goes on a massive cooldown if she doesn't reset it. Post-6 save charm for if she ults on you. -------(Patch 9.23) Katarina is also a Conqueror abuser. She can easily kill you and heal from it with new Conqueror. Stay back and avoid daggers even when ahead.”
“She can destroy you at any point of the game, really. You need someone with hard cc to shut her down. Late game you can nullify a lot of her damage with your RE. Take teleport/barrier/ignite. Go ROA-Seraphs build.”
“Solitamente non è difficile il match up di Kata, il modo più efficace per batterla è tenersi la E e usarla quando via suelle daghe.”
“Katarina is a Zed favoured skill matchup. Kat only wins off of Zed's mistakes but it is fairly hard to make mistakes in this matchup. The easiest way to win fights against her is to dodge her q with your ult.”
“Easy match up if you know how to avoid katas blades.
The problem here is that will be always roaming because she pushes very fast”
“Great matchup for galio. Just be careful and remember that if you use all your cc she can run you down if her ult is up.”
“With the new Conq on katarina, she really outdamages you better. Pre 6, Stay away from her daggers, and poke her with Q. Use AA+W to chunk her if possible. After 6, save ult for her ult. Remember Q cancels her ult too, but isn't as good as using R to escape. You outscale at 11, and watch out for her early damage.”
“Matchup is winnable, just be mindfull of her E that she could use behind you. As long as you're behind the dagger she threw behind you you should almost always be able to hit both W hits. A good Talon beats a good Katarina. A bad Talon loses to a bad Katarina. ”
“A skilled kat always wins against zed. Always keep in mind if she has e. DONT weq when she has her e up. She'll just dash away. If she uses r and you have w up just w away and then eq her.”
“Don't let her roam, and if she does, then ALWAYS say SS, if she get 3/0, the game is gonna be really hard for you. try to poke her every time she uses E to her daggers but without taking damage. You can dodge her R with your W (Sanguine pool)”
“play save until lvl 6 u can hardly outplay her with your pool”
“Brother and Sister = Sister wins.
She is easy to defeat however but if the kat is good she can easily beat you. Even if they played 2 games. ”
“Katarina is a little bit unique with assassins in terms of just how insanely mobile she is, and that she doesn't have to always get super close to deal big damage. It's kind of odd how much damage just throwing her dagger onto a minion that then bounces onto you can do. She does, however, need to get close to finish you off. Her blink makes her a problem, but if she does get close to you, lock her down with an E W for the root and throw a Q onto her. After enough times, she won't be able to retaliate anymore, and will play safe. Push the wave under the turret, because she can't farm under turret really at all.”
“She is weak right now but you must care for her daggers and keep your w for her ultimate”
“Katarina may have a strong killing potential, but so do you. Dodge the daggers as she will jump to them to deal damage. If she intends to all-in on you with her ultimate, use yours to stun her immediately. I sometimes build Hextech Gunblade as a first item to stay even with her burst damage, if i fall behind, i proceed with the normal item build.”
“Katarina is A Hard Matchup for Lux, although Lux can easily one shot Katarina she is slippery and can one shot Lux if played poorly”
“ur w doesnt block her r u dumb fuck”
“This champion just dashes everywhere. Stay under tower and farm safely. Don't lose hp for some cs because early game cs isn't as important as xp. lvl 1 she doesn't have much mobility so look for some autos. Once she hits 2 be wary of her dashes on you. Hold onto your e and don't use it until you're sure its going to hit because once your e is down you're very vulnerable. You can cancel her r with your e and she can dash behind you while you're in r. Play Smart.”
“Her daggers make her predictable don't stand on top of them and you can avoid most of her damage, save R until she uses E, you can almost always one shot her faster then she can one shot you, get Serrated Dirk or Tiamat based on if you are planning to stomp lane or roam”
“Play around her cooldowns”
“You have to freeze wave against katarina because she's too much of a threat near her tower. While your charm can cancel her ult, she's very slippery and can deal damage without her ult. ”
“Good kata will always avoid your q e but if you will wait with this she is one shot”
“Read below in the matchup section for more info!”
“this matchup should NOT be an issue whatsoever, she has a very weak laning phase, weak early levels and is actually very easy to setup ganks vs and set behind. the problem comes from when she roams around the map and gets ahead through other means. in those cases you usually cant deal with her(as your root doesnt stop her ult) and she just becomes impossible to fight. will probably lower her threat level once she gets nerfed, honestly think she's just overtuned atm.”
“Easy matchup, but not too easy. She has 2 daggers in her kit, so you want to E when she will teleport. Its hard to time as well. When she uses w, its a good time to e. Post 6, use E for her ultimate. PTA is nice. Use corrupting pots from better trading damage.”
“NEXT DANGEROUS ASSASIN, FARM AND STUN HER WHEN HE TRYNA TO KILL YOU”
“If she's good, you're dead. No sugar coating it, just build mr and try to poke her and maybe get a ks with a hand from your jg/bot”
“Just don't feed her.
Be passive against her.
She can simply kill you with if she gets her Gunblade.”
“She is very annoying, but if you save your sleep for when she jumps on you, you can sleep then get to a safer range to kill her.”
“Just don't feed, have your jungler gank before level 6.”
“Stay away from the daggers on the ground. Throw a lot of auto attacks on her, but walk back when you get minion aggro. You can freely go for Q - W - Auto attack, but you need to keep your E to cancel her ult. Using it prematurely will get you engaged on and killed. ”
“To be honest she isn't as hard as people make her to be, but good Katarina players can be a problem to you.”
“there's not much to say about Katarina.
This match-up is usually a win.
But her roaming can make her fed and her lategame CAN be stronger than Nocturnes for sure.
Winnable but always be careful, don't give her a lead through getting kills on ANY lane.”
“Easy matchup for Yasuo since you will outdamage her in prolonged trades.
Your Windwall counters her Ultimate.
Look out for her daggers, position yourself accordingly.”
“same as zed - dont use your e or she has a free opening”
“Difficult to cc as she jumps all across the lane, however fairly squishy so after you land one Q make sure to get your full combo onto her”
“Kat-favored matchup but still winnable. This lane is tough for AD irelia as well. For best results with E, put it on one of her daggers to try and predict her shunpo and you win, but post-6, it is best not to fight her 1v1.”
“Used to be way worse, but she still packs a punch. Be wary of her knives since she can teleport to them, and if she r's then e under her, it'll disrupt the channel”
“You beat her lvl 1 but not lvl 2 so watch out for that. Try not to play really passively lvl 2 or else she can get ahead and nae nae you.”
“same as i said at zed.almost.”
“anybody who is an assassin is bad for brand ”
“Katarina isn't that big of an issue, but she's an annoying bitch so be careful because she snowballs EXTREMELY hard.”
“focus on farm and avoid daggers, block her q if you have to but if windwall is on cd stay back. ”
“In this matchup try to time your Q when she uses her Q to avoid her damage with the spellshield.”
“Assassins with a lot of TP, be careful ...”
“I'll say this. I absolutely hate this champion, hate the playstyle and the snowball. This is my go-to ban 90% of the time. Against a good katarina, you stand no chance and you won't even hit you W, I promise. She has no dashes, so your E is not a big help either. STAY SAFE, never engage without a jungler, unless overfed. Kata snowballs SUPER HARD and even with 2 kills, she'll soon be at 5 and your game is going down, just like the Titanic.”
“Can follow up your roams with greater artillery, oneshot you”
“Once you play against katarina and understand how her trading works, you'll know just how useless she is against Rumble. You'll crush this matchup, focus on roaming after 6 unless she all-ins you, then just drop equalizer and pound her”
“Katarina is a really, really annoying matchup. She just hops around everywhere and avoids your combo. The reason why I put this in major and not extreme is because they are very predictable. If you can see that their dagger is going to you, you can predictively shoot q or e and combo them. Play safe under tower with good positioning and you should be fine. Expect a really boring laning phase with no deaths and hope that the Kat gets impatient and does something reckless. Also make sure that Kat doesn’t roam or at least warn other lanes. If the kat roams you basically lose. Try to deny them from doing this by shoving the wave and pushing for plates (make sure you know where the jungler and Kat is). Or you can counter roam. ”
“I'm not going to add a difficulty level here since it depends on who makes mistakes first (let the better kata win)”
“Katarina has a lot of burst and like all assassins she can easily jump onto you at melee range. You want to take Nullifying Orb and watch where her daggers land keep your distance.”
“Katarina is my hardest matchup. With so much mobility in her kit even with glacial augment slows she can be the hardest counter to you.”
“Katarina can dodge all of your abilities with her e, make sure to use your Root Binding with care otherwise she will burst you down with ease”
“Podemos hacerle counter a su R con nuestra E, debe acercarse a nosotros para hacernos daño y entra en el rango de las torretas.”
“KATARINA(FOR ME) CAN BE REALLY ANNOYING SPAMMING HER Q AND E SKILLS AND HER DAMAGE IS JUST SO....
ANYWAY YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO WIN HER IF YOU STAY AWAY FROM HER Q AND E”
“You can stop Katarina from ulting but care for early all ins and she can be insane in the endgame destroying your team if she gets alot of early kills. Dont let her roam.”
“She is very mobile and has lots of burst. Leave your Q until she uses ult so you can cancel it.”
“She's super squishy and easy to poke. Her all-in can be countered with your knockup.”
“Read in counters section:”
“when she Q's u Q her back
she will try to all in you once she reach level 2 so upgrade your E second and use E when she Es on her dagger to all in you and AA her then Q her to proc electrocute
R her when she R's you and dont R first unless you're sure you will kill her ofcoures and always try to predict where she's going by Q'ing her defensive dagger”

THE BEST ZED INDEPTH GUIDE FOR SEASON 10 WITH MATCHUPS BABES
by theboywhodominatedaplat | Zed Player
“Disgusting matchup, her mobility and damage is very bad for Zed. If you get behind you're team will have fun with the 29/1 Katarina on the other team scoring Pentakills.”
“High damage and mobility (there's a theme here), but she can still fall prey to your abilities if she ulties with no cover.”
“Strong meta midlaner. Ap assassin who can 100-0 you if you misstep. Will roam if you play passive. Stopwatch will not be as effective as it is with champions like zed. As it enables her to prepare daggers to burt you when stasis ends. ”
“Bait her to jump on her daggers and you outtrade her with W auto Melee Q auto and don't let her E behind you cuz you will lose the trade if she dodges the second W”
“skill matchup , usually u can't kill her neither she can you ,roam for win.”
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Oh sorry, yes, Katarina.
This matchup is really tough, so bring ignite and be prepared for a wild ride.
Start Dorans, you will need it. Do the thing you do with Zed and harass with Q when she steps up for minions.
Once she is low, or she engages, since she is a fucking rabid bitch who is out for blue blood, dash in (or out) and hit her in the face with E and violently unshackle your combo upon her.
After that is over, you probably will be dead, because Katarina... But, if you do it at a good time (like when your jungle is there, her's isn't), you can secure a single kill, and from there, push it in, back, buy items, and stay determined and focused at all times.
Ask yourself questions about what to do next and try to remember where the jungle is, as they help her a lot.
If you feed, however, the match is lost. But if you are down one kill, don't fret, or rotate, you can come back with smart play, think about what she is doing wrong and look for mistakes.
Try to not focus on CS while she is in the wave, as you will probably die. Try to poke her instead and then back up, because she usually will retaliate and you need to be quick about it.”
“Insane mobility and burst damage. The dagger resets make her a dodging machine. The only reason why she is not an extreme threat is that your ult can easily cancel hers and disengage. You might want to take exhaust for the times in which running away is not an option.”
“Early game is extremely easy as she won't have enough damage to kill anyway, but you can also heal it off very easily. Your ult counters her ult and even if you don't have it, by activating your E, you will take much less damage, and can also stop her ult with the fear. Additionally, a well timed Q can allow you to travel with her when she uses her E, making it a super simple lane.”
“also has extreme mobility ”
“Starting Item: Dark seal + Potion
Katarina is another assassin that cannot kill you. Stay out of range, E her. Poke and harass and R to oblivion”
“Lvl2 jouez sous votre tour et attendez le jungle.Si elle joue mal vous pouvez gagner mais si elle joue bien vous avez perdu votre lane désolé pour vous”
“She has really good sustain and will one shot you, take barrier.”
“You have to keep your ult for her ult. Otherwise, you have no other way to stop hers. Be careful of her blink, because she can just ignore your soldiers and your ult. ”
“Katarina is extremely scary once she gets gunblade. Also, watch out for level 3 all ins. Very difficult to deal with her jumps. Be patient with E. Maybe try e'ing once she ults and then r'ing out of the range of it until she is slept. Consider barrier. Also, I've heard that if you're scared of her all ins early, armor is more effective in runes.”
“She's annoying and slippery but she has a hard time killing you because of just how much CC Galio has. If you manage to grab her she is more often than not dead to the combo.”
“A good Katarina can slice your fucking retinas off before you even know she moved. However, this does not matter if you remain aware of the positioning of her daggers, and remain aware of her Cooldowns. You can punish her really hard if you remain at max range and poke her well.”
“Kat is very mobile. Time your snare with her jumps and avoid getting all inned.”
“Can be a real pain jumping everywhere, you can most of the time predict where she's gonna jump judging by where her knives land. Use that to your advantage in lane especially by throwing down an E when she blinks to it.”
“She is ridicoulous,
Unwinable unless you have a good mid laner and even then its Super hard.Ask your team to ban Katarina if they dont pray that they dont pick her.”
“Skill matchup. She won't be able to kill you at 6 in an even matchup but she will scale and Rumble doesn't scale MR so she will be able to solo kill you easily eventually”
“You have 2 abilities that can cancel her ultimate and your level 1 to 3 can potentially kill her ”
“Consegue Chegar no EZ muito Facil caso ela creça no Game seu jogo tera que Ser EXTREMAMENTE RECUADO”
“She is so easy, just E her when she go's all in and boom! delete her! (but miss that E and she moves to the highest danger level)”
“Get healing reduction, and harass her heavily early game so she can't roam on you. ”
“Mirror matchup just shows who is the better Katarina player. Just set up daggers and poke when you can, often times you will both be roaming so if you can catch them in a team fight often times you will win. ”
“Pretty easy to know where she will dash and that, avoid her scaling otherwise will be a pain in the butt.”
“katarina is a very agresive mid laner what is not good for viktor but you can easly stop her ult with yours so she is not as dangerus as other assasyns
”
“Katarina has a good bit of mixed damage and starts the game building AD components for the Hextech Gunblade. Katarina's first large powerspike is Hextech Gunblade + Sorcerer's Shoes. Try to use the Q shield to counter her Q damage and get free harass in lane. Don't stand on top of her daggers and always be ready to hit her with QE if she takes a risky dagger. She is squishy with her build so just look to oneshot her after your powerspike. Cancel her R with your Q if you are looking for an all-in!”
“Keep DISTANCE at all costs. Use your range to kill her, or even your tower.”
“Katarina is a challenge, but winnable. Get out of her Q blade range and try to avoid getting inside the blade radius if she E's. Your ultimate is stronger if you save a wall for her's then go all in.”
“She is slippery, so dont get cheesed pre 6. Try to shove her so she cant roam. If she does, ping and push, dont follow unless its safe and worth.”
“you just absolutely dumpster her. Katarina is the textbook lane to pick ivern in to. She can do nothing to you, she's too squishy to eat your bushwack harrass, she's free food for your jungler, and landing E & Q against her is a breeze because she has to jump on you to hurt you. Your ult interrupts her and will run her down and help you dive her. she won't be able to waveclear. she won't be able to poke you out or put damage on you. she won't be able to all-in you until the point where she's probably already been shut down. her only hope is to hit 6 and roam or to gank you, but you should follow her or coordinate with your jungler to countergank.”
“Champ similar to Yasuo. So much damage.”
“She will be roaming half the game, try and get ahead in CS.”
“Very easy matchup, you counter her hard. You can cancel her ult with your q, try to use your q when she uses hers to not take any damage. She dosent have sustain and she is squishy, with enough poke you can destroy her. Lastly when her dagger lands stay away from it so that you dont take free harrass.”
“Pretty easy to beat, just polymorph or R her in fights.”
“When she gets gunblade it is a huge spike for her if she roams ping and shove move to the other side of the map to avoid kata killing you. Go rylias 2nd item.”
“your q and w counter her r. plus kata has troubles dealing with tanks. She won't deal damage to you while you will be able to kill her easily.”
“ban her everytime. She is impossible to stun and can one shot you easily. Your highest counter”
“Against a katarina you need to play close to your tower so when she uses her E (ability) you can stun her with your E”
“Ignite/Exhaust matchup.
Level 1, make sure you're not in her Q range, AA her everytime she walks up for CS. So free to harass her.
Level 2 she wouldn't dive you, unless you're directly ontop of her daggers. A trick that pisses off kat players is to place soldiers ontop of your minions when they're low to harass her trying to CS, and ontop of daggers when she throws them. So if she ever E's in on them, you get a free AA.
General tip for melee matchups, if you ever get to AA them use Q immediately and AA another to proc electrocute.
IF KATARINA USES E DIRECTLY ONTOP OF YOU, without landing on a dagger so she doesn't get resets, ult IMMEDIATELY so she is a sitting duck.”
“Outside of Yasuo this is probably the worst lane. Landing a W on her is near impossible focus on shoving and maintaining lane priority for jungle skirmishes. ”
“Good katarina's will never get hit by your q while using e to her dagger,
never throw your 3rd q before she uses her e
LVL 1-2 she will look to kill you, at lvl 3 if you use your windwall for her q she wont be able to kill you, also you can push her early because her farming under turret is really terrible, she will look to roam so always ping it and follow her if you can
While against a bad kata you should always win your lane ”
“Can be anoying but just dont fk up your positioning into her knives.”
“She can go out from your stun.”
“Threat level 3-9.
My gut tells me to put Katarina higher in terms of threat, but there's a good reason I haven't.
Katarina depends entirely on her player. A good Katarina will have you farming under tower, warding hard and playing as if it were a buffed Fizz. In contrast bad Katarina will feed you free Q stacks, dash into your stun and allow you to scale as if you were against an AD soraka mid. This is unlike the other 5 threats that I have because most of them can beat you without it really being a great test of skill.”
“Every assasin is an extreme threat to mages, including Neeko. Kata has extreme mobility, making it hard to land skillshots.”
“hard to hit cause of jumping to her draggers
”
“just play safe and know when to use your E and your fine”
“You will never be able to hit any skillshots, very hard matchup so i permaban her. Play back and watchout when she gets her gunblade because then she can all in you with the slow.”
“dont step on daggers, you outrade her, level 6 just q her ultimate to negate it and shes fucked”
“Same as Zed. You have zero cc to knock her out of her ult. ”
“Lots of Leaps , can dodge easily almost every single one of your abilities excluding your Ultimate”
“A good kat is always scary but a good diana is even scarier. You can 'R' Her Out of her 'R' and take majority of her damage away.”
“Personally, I think Kat counters em all. If shes good shes gunna beat you, just try and farm and roam when she roams so your dumbass teammates dont feed her 6 kills by 10 minutes.”
“Fear the power of her daggers.
Expect this to be a hard matchup.”
“Try to dodge her combos.
If she casted every spell try to fight her.”
“Like always, she's nothing versus you. But remember, a good Kata can always kill you.”
“A good Kat can be extremely unpredictable, but in general you should stay away from her knives as they are where most of her lane damage comes from. She can be a pain since the healing reduction from her ult makes your ult worse. This is one of those lanes where your job is just to not completely feed her--if you go even you've won, since your utility is significantly better than hers in teamfights if she's not just killing everyone.”
“Just W her ult and you're good to go lol :b Her Q doesnt even dmg you early if you have your shield.”
“Uh oh...
Your E is almost useless here, it's hard to Q her, and she can get out of your ult easily.
Pray, and beg for ganks”
“This should be one of your easiest matchups as long as you should be able to win this since you can burst her early and late game. Just be careful of her ultimate and burst, especially in the late game.”
“She has a lot of mobility but if you time your E's correctly you can win this lane. You also counter her ult with your own due to the suppression. As soon as you see her spinning press R and poke her to death for an easy kill. She won't be able to damage you at all even after the ult due to the bonus resistance stats you'll get.”
“HARD MATCHUP. YOU NEED TO PLAY VERY WELL.”
“An absolute nightmare to play against, her R counters yours since it applies grievous wounds, she outpushes you, she can dodge your E with her E and she won the trade, you're immobile so she will most likely kill you if she catches you out of position, try to E+P her out of her ult. Use your W to see if she's roaming, spam-ping the hell out of sidelanes when missing, she has great roam potential”
“Hard matchup but winnable. Avoid her daggers, and try to poke her early game. You are range she is meele take advantage of it ! :)”
“You can pretty much force her to farm with her q early on. You can windwall her ultimate.”
“Trade her carefully, take exhaust, and never walk near a dagger on the ground. ”
“Stay away from the daggers on the ground. Throw a lot of auto attacks on her, but walk back when you get minion aggro. You can freely go for Q - W - Auto attack, but you need to keep your E to cancel her ult. Using it prematurely will get you engaged on and killed. ”
“She does a lot of damage, has a lot of mobility and she can inflict grievous wounds on you. But you can follow her blink with your E, nullifying her disengage. Skill dependant matchup.”
“A good katarina is a high threat but in lower ello you dont have to worry about it that much”
“Very easy matchup, cancel her ultimate with your pull and ult her when she uses her daggers on you as it removes them from the map.”
“Nope, not funny, Kata is like Fizz, not funny at all. Get some Magic Resist, to survive a bit longer, so you could stun her, when she's ulting in a bad position.
Whenever she Q's you, walk to the side not to the back in order to negate some damage.”
“Explained in Matchup section.”
“As a katarina player myself I feel like tf really struggles against her, your only option to survive her incredible burst is if you can hit the yellow card when she's doing her fancy level 6 combo. Play safe and try to avoid her dagger. Only poke her when she is far away from you or a minion she can E onto.”
“Before 6 you can poke/harass/deny her pretty hard, just be sure to watch out for daggers she might be looking to Shunpo to. After 6, you have to hold onto your E stun pretty much for the rest of the laning phase (unless you're quickly clearing a wave from a distance before backing) so that you can stun her if she tries to Ult near you. Holding onto your stun negates most of the kill pressure she will have on you meaning shes going to be even or behind, making her pretty useless. She might eventually just sack the lane and look for roams for easy kills so just be sure to aggressively call her roams out to your team.”

[9.21] S8/S9 Diamond - Midlane Heimerdinger - In-Depth Guide
by Euphoric Toaster | Heimerdinger Player
“Depends on how good the katarina player is. Most of the katarina players I've faced don't respect my damage and get first blooded. Late game, try to hook her into your team to CC lock her.”
“She's an open book, just one-shot her when she jumps on her daggers with E.
Care for her damage spike with gunblade.”
“Pretty easy, you can foretell her movements and land more easily your Q. Just don't be reckless, she has still a lot of damage. The main advice I can give you is to stay behind at least two minions, at least there is few chances that her Q bounces on you.”
“Katarina. A champ which I could hate. If you face a Katarina Main, be sure to be careful as this champ will punish you for your mistakes.”
“Kennen vs Katarina. Normally there should be no problems. You have the perfect abilities to resist her mobility and damage. The outplay potential from her is always present, but that depends how good the person behind the screen is.”
“Her E cdr,and re-locations makes the match up almost unplayable. Especially if enemy is otp kata. It's really unplayable. Play it with glacial fox build and try aa her at early levels. At 6 level her all-in are extremely dangerous so be carefull your tasks and decisions.”
“You can easily bully Katarina if you use your E to dash through minions and Q her as much as possible.”
“Predicting is the best way against her. Building Doran's Shield will absorb some damage. If you predict her R she won't have many ways to do any damage to you. She CAN'T absorb any of your damage”
“She can't absorb your damage in Early Game but if there's one of her knives you will have to predict that sometimes
The best way to use R on her is after her R but be careful because her damage is happening very fast and you too can't absorb much of her damage”
“High early game damage most of her damage”
“Try to stop her ULT with your E + Q and poke max u can, safely”
“I would consider kat as an ahri counter due to her damage. Avoid her daggers and charm her when she ults and try to avoid minions, Kat uses them as shields from your skill shots.”
“Early game spam Q for massive chunks. When she uses ult, use R and W instantly (your R interrupts channeled abilities)”
“Can blink away from your Q and jump away from your ult”
“she jumps around easily and can get out of your W easily. if he ults insta place w on her, thats your only window.”
“Dashes around your soldiers. She can't dash back when she goes for farm tho.”
“D-Blade. Skill Matchup. Same rules apply as on any champion. Don't be stupid, don't stand in her daggers, don't let her engage, and when all-inning watch the fake escape then re-engage with her W-Q-E-E combo or something along those lines. You can windwall her R, so save it for that. Hold your tornado until she dashes, or predict which dagger she will dash to. Take Conqueror or FF.”
“A Hard matchup for Veigar try to rush Hourglass”
“Skill based match up, better Kata wins.
How to counter her if you have no CC? Farm fast in early and push hard, farming under tower with Kata isn't very easy.”
“Kata's unstoppable dashes can be a real pain, but if you keep away from her E range, you will be able to lane fairly easily into her.”
“She is a trouble when she can trick with her daggers. Pay attention to her positions. ”
“Save your E for her ult and you won't have any troubles winning mid”
“This matchup can be very very hard agaist a skilled Katarina, she can poke you with her Q in the early game so stay away for her and try to count her cooldowns because if she engages you, you really dont have an escape unsless you have R earlier than her.”
“If you play against a fast Katarina main you must predict her every move since she can always just dodge your spells and play defensive if think you cant stand too close to her since she might jump on you any second.”
“If she doesn't successfully proc her passives on you, she is useless. Save a W in case she ults. Otherwise, she can't really touch you.”
“not that much to do against her, early hold your distance. When she ults try to use your double bomb combo on her to stop it.”
“This match-up is typically when I see Kassadin being picked. Although yes , you somewhat counter her , she can snowball off other lanes if you don't ward and ping properly. In lane you should be fine just Q when she does and walk away from the dagger ( usually stepping forwards a bit ). She can kill you if she hits 3 before you and you're too far up. Her R will be canceled by your Q or using your R to get out of range.”
“Easy matchup early on. Seems unlikely, but if you hit her with your bubble, she will lose most of her health. You have the advantage in most cases, until she hits level 6.”
“Katarina is mobile so she can dodge your abilities and burst, but you can win against her if done right.”
“I dont like to fight against katarina and u shouldnt either. When fighting katarina be sure to play safe because u normally can not win a trade.”
“Personnaly, I hate facing this champion. Katarina have extrem mobility (E), broken ultimate (R) and she have a better level 2 then an Akali. So don't be to much greedy with Katarina on laning !!”
“A bad katarina cant touch you a good katarina straight up fuck you.”
“Katarina is highly mobile which can make her hard to hit with abilities.
Try to put down turrets with a great amount of spacing so when Katarina jumpes or autoattacks your turret you can easily punish with a quick w and get some turret lasers off.
If that doesn't work for you dont worry just focus on farming and punish her turret when she is roaming. Just survive laningphase and you will scale away from her and you will be able to help alot in teamfights later on.”
“Don't go near her daggers and farm safely with Q. In midgame make sure to not facecheck. You do as much as her in teamfights.”
“Save your q for when she ults, you win all 1v1's before lvl 6 with your w and if you're not fighting in her minion wave.”
“Pressure before Katarina level 6 , you can win”
“More of a skill matchup, shes not ranged but still does a ton of damage, position yourself well and you should be good. ”
“Katarina is somewhat hard to play against. Her ability to Shunpo over your skillshots makes it really hard to harass her. On top of this, her gap closer and burst damage can easily ruin your day. However, because she is a melee champion, you should be able to completely control the lane pre-6. After this, ward up, push her under tower, and force her to lose cs or get harassed. Don't try to 1v1 her unless she is getting wrecked in lane, especially since Petrifying Gaze is really hard to land.”
“Zhonyas is needed against this matchup, always. ”
“Very mobile and can dodge your bind and ult, but at the same time can be predictable. Play safe when Katarina hits 6”
“always E,q her otherwhise she will e your ass.”
“Katarina cannot do enough damage to kill you early. Camp her daggers to prevent her from clearing. Disrupt her ultimate with a quick Snowball knockup. Roam if she decides to hug turret.”
“Easy match up but you mainly learn it from experience.. walk away from her daggers and dont Q when shes ulting.... because of the grevious wounds”
“You gotta keep control of her roams. Follow her early or with tps. Dont stand next to her knives or E her when she takes them. Bully her early with your abilities and farm with your AAs. She is kinda busted right now so be careful to not overextend against her at any level pre 9. Start corrupt pot.”
“Zone her out with singularity on your minions. If she shunpos, she takes damage. Over time, you'll chip at her health where you can then burst her out completely. She can dive you without punishment late game or if shes fed. Its important that you try your best to get a kill onto Kat before she hits level 6. ”
“This is in her favor slightly, but I have found that if you start to read their playing style heavily, you can predict some of her E's and land a long Q here and there. I have won this lane a lot because of that, but be cautious, her engage hits hard.”
“No farm for Katarina lol. You dont have a stun so better watch out.”
“Unfortunately for Diana, Katarina is no longer a free matchup due to her rework in patch 6.22. To win this matchup you need to be mindful of where Katarina throws her daggers such as low health allied minions since her Q will ALWAYS land on the opposite side from where she threw it. Kat has two basic lane combos - one at level 2 and the other at level 3. Her level two combo is a simple Q -> E which she can use to quickly proc her passive and deal massive damage. Level 3 is where Kat becomes really dangerous. Her combo at this point will be E -> W -> Q -> E -> E -> Ignite (if she has it). This has the potential to completely 100 - 0 you. To avoid being oneshot, move in the opposite direction of where Kat's Q dagger lands so she cannot proc her passive damage. If she dashes onto you despite not getting any passive damage off, hit her with a Q and W to outtrade her. Once she hits 6, make sure you save your E for when she ults. Using your E before she ults will give her an opening to deal massive damage to you.”
“I stand on her daggers to bait her to e onto them. You have 2 ways to stop her r, she can't beat you.”
“Much like Akali or Zed or Yasuo, Katarina has a great deal of burst damage with no resource sustain issues. Your all ins are very effective against her early, so keep an eye on when she uses her Q or shunpo's, then use that window of opportunity to go in on her. Watch out for her daggers; If she jumps to one while you're on it, you'll take some nasty damage and be in range for her to unload on you.”
“Pressure her with your E and W so she doesnt get near you.”
“Can easily dash around, making it hard for you to hit her with abilities, and can easily all in you.”
“It hard to escape from kararina and if havent used your W right you will died”
“Dark Seal or Corrupting Potion. You are the ultimate counter to Katarina. As long as you stay out of range of her daggers early you will be fine. Your passive negates a lot of her damage, you have more mobility after level 6, and most importantly, your Q cancels her ultimate. Safe your Q for this purpose after level 6. Max E.”
“When She jumps to her daggers you should try landing a combo to punish her. Build MR so in late you can use W to cancel her ult”
“You have another 50% of winning against her”
“Annoying as hell, but you should win due to the sustain from your passive.”
“You can probably kill her easily early game though once she gets her Ult you have to be careful. Probably should rush Zhonya's as 2nd item if facing her.”
“Katarina Mains sind durchausfähig Talon's in der Laningphase zu besiegen.
Die W sollte man nur im Gegenangriff verwenden, da sie sich sonst mit der E hinter dir bewegt und du deine Stacks nurnoch schwer vollbekommst.
Alternativ könne man auch mit der Talon Q engagen und die Talon W beim Escapen drauf werfen, hierbei sollte man den Dolchen ausweichen, falls nicht möglich kann man noch die Talon Passive auslösen.”
“Katarina is a pain, she can burst you down sometimes so quickly that it can give you wipe-lash. With Katarina's Q's you will notice daggers on the ground... she can jump to them and then ult you, try to land the edge of your cage on the dagger just as she jumps so you can get a free stun on her so you can perform your burst combo (W + Q + R | In that order)”
“Her early poke can be very annoying,specially her dives when you are low hp,so make sure to farm at tower if she starts to engage you alot. Dont try to fight back,you will mostly likely to lose.”
“She will want to all-in when she has the chance. It's ok to give a few cs in order to be safe. ”
“Poke and zone her. Watch her ult and bring barrier or Exhaust. ”
“Katarina has a hard time farming under tower so push her into tower and try to poke her when she goes for CS. It makes you susceptible to ganks and she can engage on you easier so ward and stay away from her daggers. If you get her low you can try and charm and kill her. She will most likely look for roams so try and push the wave in and follow.
A lot of people think you can just charm Katarina after she jumps to her daggers but her movement speed makes it super difficult, and it's really hard to predict when she Es.
The most important thing is when she ults she is an easy charm target. Especially in teamfights, save your charm for her. ”
“Melee! Spam autos and Qs.
Watch out for her burst though, you might need MR post 6.”
“Katarina can hop over Veigar's stun and difficult to land abilities. Her damage can also make it hard to farm and stack.”
“Just don't play blind pick lol”
“Very dangerous match-up, be careful not to feed her. Another match-up where Zhonya's hourglass will work wonders. Try to not waste your stun.”
“her damage is always a threat, even if shes behind, respect it by avoiding her daggers.
your silence can turn her R off early and deny her damage and her blinks, combined with your R she cant do much and she needs to farm early for gunblade.”
“When you play blind pick and meet another katarina it's just a skill duell”
“Old kata wasn't such a problem when playing as ahri, but now, as she can jump around the whole map (jk), she will dodge most your skills and just kill you. DON'T WALK UP TO HER DAGGERS, YOU ARE ASKING HER TO KILL YOU!”
“skill matchup. her lvl 3 is really strong, be careful”
“Just stay away from her daggers and the lane should be fine. Spam ping if she's missing. If she gets any kills she'll snowball into a big problem.”
“Very annoying matchup. Stay under turret, farm and poke. Position away from your daggers and if she E's onto you, minefield and/or Satchel Charge out. ”
“Dodge her R and just give her the full combo. She will die and be afraid of you.”
“Easy lane, but you'll get smacked lategame. Unless of course, you managed to shut her down so much that she doesn't deal damage. ”
“Avoid her daggers and try to stay as far back away from her, while still being in range to poke. She can easily snowball with one kill, but she can also be set back by a lot if she dies early.”
“Skill matchup. Poke her with Q at lvl 1, play safe at lvl 2. Don't go forward for trades if she hasn't wasted Q and W. At 6 you can only win if save your Q for her R. ”
“Assez prévisible, mais peut facilement se feed ailleurs.
Attention au burst. Important de conserver le E ou le R pour cancel son ult.”
“Don't walk too close to Daggers laying on the ground, try to Q whenever she goes for a cs with a melee attack, rush hexdrinker, all in er at 6 and tripple Q her while shes ulting. ”
“the only problem is E”
“Easy to encounter, build a bit magic resisitance. When she uses (R) try to hit ur (E) and her (R) will stop ”
“Easy to encounter, build a bit magic resisitance. When she uses (R) try to hit ur (E) and her (R) will stop ”
“Kat can almost always out-trade you if she has her abilities. Wait for her to waste her dash or her Q, then jump on her and proc your passive if possible. Short trades are key until you have your ultimate. Also, watch the level advantage, she'll kill you if she hits 3 before you.”
“If you keep her off of you then you will be okay. Poke her a lot early game.”
“Save you E for her ult and gg”
“Katarina is a little less scary than LeBlanc purely for the fact that your E can stop her ultimate and also prevent her Shunpo. That being said, she's also hard to kite considering your range later on, making her a pain and, sadly, something you must rely on your team for.”
“Don't let her Farm and take Exhaust and shes useless.”
“Katarina is really hard matchup, its really hard to win any trade, thanks to her mobility ”
“If she uses her ult you can just stun her and get away easily.”
“Kat can be super slippery because of the creativity with her dagger placement. As always, don't stand next to one and respect the control she has around where it is. An easy bait though is to walk towards a dagger anticipating the dash, and then charming. Don't be predictable yourself however, charm is valuable in keeping yourself alive.”
“Morg don't like monkeys.”
“She has no CC and her waveclear can be exploited. Fight her at the right times and you'll win against her.”
“She can go up to an Even or Major threat depending on the cc capabilities of your team, but the key is to save your ult for when she jumps in.”
“You counter her until level 6, after that it's very much like Zed, too much mobility (whereas you have none) and a ult with insane damage. Rush Zhonya's (do the same thing with Zed).”
“You die if you miss charm. Stay away from daggers on floor.She will usually jump when you are between her and her dagger while walking towards her. Look to land charms on the daggers and when she's ulting. ”
“poke her to death pre 6 and even with her lvl6 you should deal more dmg a good kata can burst you in late so be carefull”
“Just harass her with your stuns and chip her health with r q w ”
“At early, push in and try to harass her till lvl 3. Level 2 you can take e for doing maximum damage, because many katarina players (my experince) think they can level 2 all in you, so taking e will out trade her easy. After she got hextech gunblade you cant 1v1 her, so pushing in and roaming is the best answer.”
“Starting E level 1 lets you win trades hard because your shield negates her dagger damage. Kat is very predictable because she will usually go to where her daggers are to trade. You can use this knowledge to bait her or to aim your skills at. Try to walk away towards the side or towards her when her daggers are on the floor because she will jump to them. Post 6 you will die if you don't land your ult to cancel her ult. ”
“It's an easy match up but she can ruin you if she's good ”
“Her dashing makes hard to hit Q
But your mobility prevents her from dealing damage
Harras with W>E>Q
Don't let her get close enogh to Q you
If she ults you ult to avoid her damage”
“Kesinlikle Banlamanızı Öneririm.”
“The key to beat Katarina is quite easy to understand
1) respect her damage
2) avoid staying near the daggers that are on the ground
3) save your charm (don't spam it)
Her mobility will allow her to doge your skillshots (charm mainly) and out trade you if you are not careful so try to play a bit more safer then normally you would if you don't know how good she is. Consider buying Zhonya or stopwatch early to deny her burst damage once she gets ahead and follow her around the map since she will roam quite often due to her assassin nature”
“Will poke a lot, and has no resource to cast her abilities, plus her cooldowns are low. However she is squishy and has no sustain by default.”
“Probably one of the easiest matchups for wukong, take hob and trade frequently, post-6 play smart but still trade”
“similar with lb , as an assasin she cant do anything to you so its a free lane phase
”
“hold your E for one of her daggers”
“she is really hard to play against because she can easily dodge your spells and then kill you.”
“absolute broken cancer no brain champ will get one kill from a side lane and instantly be 12/0 at 7 minutees dodge this matchup nless you are mentally challenged and just want to look at the colors on the screen”
“She have dodges too and poke. Don't feed her. Go zhonia/banshee.”
“Katatrina.... Hm. Easy to dodge her Es by running from her daggers. You can even try to predict her by launching your charm at her dagger. When she reaches six... RESPECT her. Unless if you wanna be alpha and try to out play her.”
“Poke her pre6 , use Chaos Storm the moment she R
[DETAILED MATCHUP INFORMATION BELOW]”
“Kata can outtrade and out damage you in prolonged fights”
“She is less of a treat than Zed. But be carefull. If she jump on you remember that she appear behind you and not in front of you. Pay attention of her Daggers.”
“Katarina is very hard to deal with when she is jumping around all over the place. Stay away from her daggers. Similar to Yasuo, land your chain on her, chain again if you can so she can stop moving. ”
“Evite trocas ate fechar Bastão e Mercúrio, pois na primeira vantagem que ela pegar, será difícil de segurar ela. Não troque sem barreira. Recomendo pegar a build com runa de sustento.”
“Be ready to E-Q her when she ults you to stop her. Punish her if she try to farm pre 6. W over her blades for free damage.”
“Care about her Daggers and trade her with E>AA>Q you can cancel her R with your R you must engage her befor she engages you. ”
“About the same as kassadin, can either choose to harass or shove her in, just don't be near her daggers and the lane is cake. Has super high burst damage if you screw up though.”
“Shove the first 2 waves to force her under tower. Kat's level 1 is garbage and level 2 is mediocre. Be careful of daggers on the floor as it does a lot of damage. At level 6, save your windwall for her Ult not her Q and you will win eventually.”
“baibai my windwall gonna get u”
“Avoid her daggers as they do a ton of damage when she uses her ultimate simply W out to avoid damage. Trading with her is moderately easy if you can hit your E”
“While she's not impossible to lane against, she definitely isn't easy. Play safe and wait till you start scaling, then roam to pick up kills elsewhere. DO NOT STAND ON HER KNIVES”
“Poke as match as possible. Keep your e for when she ults.”
“Can easily dodge your Q and E and R, making you worthless. It's hard to farm against her too.”
“She can´t do much about you. Harass her whenever you see a chance and she won´t do nothing.”
“as long as her knife are not any were around you your fine try to force her to use her ult”
“Her Lvl 3 is INSANE. BE CAUTIOUS. PLAY SAFE. stun when she is channeling her ult to cancel it. Exhaust is good against her.”
“Like Irelia, Katarina can do serious damage to you and the rest of your team if she gets a gold advantage. Pay close attention to her, and don't be afraid to punch back if she tries to go all-in. If you're caught inside her ultimate, use Defiant Dance to mitigate the damage if you can't simply run out of its range.”
“annoying, annoying, wtf this damage, no mana cost, will be terrible if she know to play. She will try qwee combo or qer combo, or maybe just er combo if you are really bad. Rush zhonya if you can't survive with just holy barrier and your skills.”
“Katarina has the ability to do high burst damage while at the same time having high mobility and the ability to just completely dodge an entire anivia combo if she plays it correctly. Her ability to close gaps is too much for an inexperienced Anivia to handle and you will more than likely lose lane if you do not play safe”
“She is good for early game and kill potenial and trades ”
“Contrairement à ce que j'ai pus dire précédemment sur la mobilité et les assassin katarina est un match up pas si compliqué puisqu'elle dash principalement sur ses dagues ou ses alliés elle sera donc facilement anticipable grâce à vos talents de mastermind de la prédiction et de votre long entraînement dans la salle de l'esprit et du temps.”
“Tirale tu Q cuando tire su R y esquiva las dagas”
“She does a lot of damage. You have to avoid as much of her damage, as you can. She can not poke better then you, but care her E's. They can juke all you have, so keep in mind if her E is up. Also dont stay in her R to get more damage on Death mark, Its better to just get out of range and try and Q her. She will be standing still.”
“Pretty easy actually. Put two or three points into Q and then proceed to max E. Or, just max E from the start. Trading in minions and poking her from a distance is your priority in this lane. Save your Q for when she starts ulting so you can silence & cancel it.”
“Assassin claps Karthus unless you're amazing and he's awful. ”
“Katarina is an extreme threat to Xerath as she can dash close to you and dish out masses of damage, try not to die to her at the loss of CS. If she does dash to you fire a stun behind you as that is where she will land- this will give you a chance to escape. If you are unsure of how to fight against her it never hurts to stay under the turret and punish her with your range when she gets too close.”
“If she tries to jump on you, you can either use your Tides of Blood or you can run away with Sanguine Pool, and because she's melee you can easily harass her with your Transfusion.”
“Bubble her daggers. Period.”
“Katarina isn't as dangerous as you might think. Make sure not to walk or get near her daggers that lie on the ground since that is her main source of dmg. She won't be able to do anything against you on level 1 and 2. Poke her with Q and E and she can't come close to farm. Make her low enough and you can kill her. Try holding on to your Chaos Storm so you can cancel her ultimate if she uses her combo on you. If you know that her Shunpo is on cooldown then don't hesitate to use your Chaos Storm to try and kill her unless she is near her tower. If you play around her daggers then you should have an easy lane.”
“She has a crazy Damage you have to buy zhon'ya”
“If she jumps on a dagger, ulti. If she ults, ulti. If she hasnt used her E, dont ulti = win. ”
“With rework she is extremely strong. Pre-6 you cant fight because of her resets. However. Once you get Ludens boots and abyssal you can easily secure the 1v1”
“Katarina hard counters melee pretty easily. Her ult is really quick too and being able to put high amount of burst.
You can WW her Q but she has low cooldown so it wouldn't mean that much.”
“U can dodge hers nuke with ur sanguine pool easy lane but she always roaming whole game play mindfull !”
“Im not sure what really happened to kat, but shes really good into you now. Try not to feed, its kinda difficult but not really. Still a Huge threat.
Also she blinks away from your damage.”
“Puhh katarina is crazy in lane and in team fights for Zed
The best way is to kill her in early, or just ignore her in late”
“Katarina is pretty scary. Whenever she ults you, ult her into your tower or ult her away if you really need to. Because of her Shunpo, you'll want to abuse her if she uses it incorrectly. (not blinking to a dagger) She can blink over your ult and completely ignore your soldiers, so roaming for kills is a good idea. I would recommend buying Zhonya's if she's too much of a problem.”
“Kata is hyper mobile and has a lot of burst. Stay out away from her daggers and play safe. Recommended ban.”
“Easy matchup as her q won't even damage you if you have your passive up, and if she goes in for a combo, make sure you punish her hard because you out damage her. Ensure you windwall her q if you don't have your passive up. If she ultimates you, e through her, and activate windwall.”
“Katarina is an AP-assassin and I actually find her pretty easy to lane with. If it's not the best Katarina, she will use her shampoo (or is it shunpo idk ?? [jk]) to get close to you for an all-in and you can just E her from there to stop her.”
“in the same boat, be a little more predictable, katarina also has a hard early game and a hard time fighting under tower, she thrives from roams as she wont really be able to 1v1 you, keep her under tower, and punish her for leaving lane dont try to solo her, she's much more mobile than you”
“Dashes are most dangerous moves against Zyra. Katarina can either dash and blow enemies away. In this match-up you can find light by keeping track of her daggers. Keep distance to them and go with all-in only if there are none of them around.”
“Katarina's update made her much easier to lane against, poke her when she goes for her daggers but don't get too close or she'll hit you before you can even hit back”
“This is a tricky matchup. Try using your E first when you are sure that she has none of her jumps. Otherwise try to poke her with Q, W and auto attacks.”
“dont try to combo this champ, just keep the lanes even. Focus on csing, and push the whole wave when looking to gank. Make sure to be careful roaming because she can easily jump on you when you move through the river.”
“She can poke you really hard, so try to communicate with the jungler for ganks, and watch out for her level 6. You shouldn't really get near her, and you dont need to you have decent range, I'm saying that because level 6 dependent champions rely on calculating when 6 will be up, so she can catch you off guard and use it immediately. Watch out for her roams too, they're really bad, especially if it's a 4 man dive bot.
Suggested: Exhaust”
“How to counter: Watch her daggers, save your stun if she's ults you.”
“Try to deny her all in.”
“If its a good kat. Ur fucked”
“In a Kat v Kat situation, the person who gets hit by the most daggers will win. Try to avoid the enemies dagger while in lane.”
“Lot of dashes makes hitting Q's hard.
Try to time your last Q when she ults to get nice healing and damage.”
“Trade when ever you have empowered Q and poke her when she goes for cs. ”
“Her engage is her downfall, don't let her poke you though, get hex and Mercury's treads!”
“Katarina's E hard-counters Veigar. The best advice I can give is to play some games with her to understand her kit. Similar to Leblanc, don't expect your cage to do much of anything to hinder her mobility. However, Banshee's Veil will reduce her kill potential. ”
“Kata is really hard to deal with since she can kill you and avoid your stun and skillshots at level 3, okay safe against her and always ask for ganks.”
“Heavily depends on the enemy's skills with her. Save your Q for a minion to dodge any of her daggers.”
“Basically the same as LeBlanc.”
“You can cancel her ult, make her dash into your e, has almost no way to out-heal your ult execute.”
“Hello, dagger police? Predict her shunpo to her daggers if you want to have a free charm and damage burst.”
“Her mobility and her damage is a threat to you.
But you can take exhaust or even Ignite to make her almost useless, and, her mobility needs to be to a unit or a dagger.”
“Easy matchup, you poke her, you can interrupt her R, you have killpressure all the time with Ignite.”
“you can bully Katarina fairly easily in the early game, but once her cooldowns start getting lower you're going to have a difficult time
look to bully her early, avoid her daggers and jump on her when she goes to last hit,”
“Like Fizz, her teleport cancels your E and she also has an aggressive kit. However, Katarina is more prone to nicely timed ganks.
Warning - This champion can and will roam to counter a safe playstyle. Ping accordingly.”
“Your magic resist and cc counter her. ”
“after she use ult on you , you must use your ult to leave her ult range”
“Not a threat whatsoever, you outrange her so even if her daggers land near your farm you can farm with your Q and poke her at the same time. My advice is to save your yellow or red card and wait for her to try and pick up her dagger and punish her from there. Unfortunately she is not like draven so getting her daggers is not a necessity but you should easy win this matchup.”
“Her ult is a joke, just keep your Sanguine Pool prepared for her ult.
Her teleporting to you is HER problem, not yours, it's better that you can get range to use tranfusion on her.”
“Depends, You can easily avoid her daggers and pressing E when she uses Q will vaporize the dagger.”
“Campeão de facil mobilidade para fugir de seu Q e seu E. Evite gastar mana sem necessidade”
“Clever katarina, will make you cry.
You miss charm - you are done.”
“Not a so hard matchup for Zoe.”
“Katarina can dodge all Ahri's spells with E, and she is to ''fast'' for Ahri. The only key here is to destroy her before she gets level 6.”
“Decently simple as long as you keep your distance. try staying away from her R. Your R can stun but it doesn't always do it vs Katarina's R so be cautious”
“For me, Katarina is a easy match. For others could be a pain in the ass. Keep in mind that she can kill you 1 vs 1. Your main task is to poke and harass him from afar. She cannot reach you because your role is to play safe. Don't try to force a fight, only sabotages his farming.”
“stay away from that floor dagger, minions are great against kat.”
“Easy one,just try aggresive style and when she jump on you with her [[Shunpo]] All in her”
“Her blink makes it easy for her to avoid your root, but you can tell where a Katarina wants to go by looking at her dagger placement. Watch the daggers.”
“she's strong but you can kill her after pre six and just snowball as katarina is weak pre six”
