Tips Against Samira in Bottom Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
DoublefeedOP says “Samira is a massive threat to Kog'Maw, she will go all-in on you levels 1-3 but if you can get through that you should easily outscale her later on. Make sure that when you go against Samira that you give up levels 1-6 and punish her if she all-ins you and doesn't grab the kill. You can reverse all-in if she fails to CC you with her support but for the most part she will beat you.”
LegendaryOstrich says “Very mobile, can keep up with Lucian's early game damage. Be sure to play around her windwall since it will be the easiest way for you to counterplay her once it is on cooldown. She can reposition herself with her dash so also watch out for that when you ult. Your Q can go through her windwall and she has the same attack range as Lucian.”
DoublefeedOP says “Samira is pretty potent if you don't have your Arcane Shift up, but if you do you should have no problem poking her out and killing her because of the nerf on Samira's passive. The big threat is once she gets on-top of you, you're pretty doomed early game. If you can hit your item powerspikes she falls off and you should be able to easily kill her.”
Chaeha says “Samira can only play off the support's pick, so make sure that you respect the support's crowd control as Samira's Daredevil Impulse puts her into range and that's the only way you can die to her. You can also take exhaust to nullify her telegraphed combos. ”
Chaeha says “Samira has a very short auto attack range, so we want to punish her level 1 if we can and then just respect the support as Samira can't do much by herself. If we respect the support pick and then play around not ulting in her w, then we should win. ”
FunkyBeagle says “Samira has been dumbed down a lot since her release, she's only good with high cc supports or those with knock ups. Its really hard for Samira to kill you early games as she has lower range than you at 500. She HAS to rely heavily on her support to make a move.”
DoublefeedOP says “She's pretty strong as of Season 11, I'd recommend taking advantage of your 1-2 and poking her down while she really can't do much about it. After 3, you need to keep in mind your autos can get blocked by her W but you can go through that with your W and root her. She's one of the stronger ADC's in S11 so if you're going to ban an ADC, I'd ban Samira.”
Profesor APH. says “Samira have great matchup into Phel. She can block your ult, calibrum q, chakrams stacks, but you out scale her at full build you should win with her (I recommend to use exhaust vs her)”
22Drift says “She will always try to eat your condemn or silver bolts proc with her W. Make sure to NOT use your condemn when she W's, and hit something else. Right as it ends just keep pounding her. Vayne actually does very well against Samira.”
Ekezun says “Try to dodge her long range Q as much as you can so she doesn't get to charge her R, also be sure to harass her when her W and E abilites are down, they're on quite a long cooldown early on”
SkittleBtw says “Don't feed her and honestly she's really not that bad, play around walls, when she jumps in to use her Katarina ability, just smack that garden tool into the wall and beat her up like the clown she is.
(If she gets fed, you are now the clown being beaten up fyi)”
FraleBot says “If you want to have a chance of winning your lane just ban her, she can with next to no effort block your every Q (or W-Q combo) which will drain your mana and not do any good for you”
ApolfHutler says “Skill matchup , for some this would be their pref ban, but u can just outplay her every time, aa once to get her to use w, and safe e for her r
”
MunixEclipse says “Against samira you need to bait her W with the threat of you E, and kill her when her W is down. During her R, use your W to run and AA her to death when her R is finished.”
Kalista Monster says “After all the nerfs I would put her as a skill matchup. If it weren't for the nerf she would be major or extreme. Just remember to q after her w is down. Her w also doesn't block kalista ult.”
TwinkieHugz says “Your auto attacks can go through her W and you're longer range then her. Samira is very reliant on her support so if her support sucks she'll suck.”
Redsaturn says “Keep her at range at all times. You only win with her W(windwall) on cd. Laning and spacing against her is pretty easy and you can even walk up to auto her sometimes. ”
ApheliosMain62 says “Riot...WHY?? That shit is broken and can kill you in 0.0001 seconds, Samira is permaban if you will pick Aphelios, she with her W can stop all your the damage.”
Giisoo says “Her synergy with aggressive supports can make Draven fall behind. Windwall is honestly annoying and can someone nerf her healing when she ults.”
SaltedCrisp says “Upon her release Samira's damage numbers are insane, so this will focus on overall playstyle instead of damage output in the case of a future nerf. Awkwardly, she's pretty easy to bait in to your feathers. Try exhausting her Blade Whirl before pulling any feathers. Once she dashes in to you, reposition and pull your feathers in. Stay out of her ultimate range! In this case, kiting her will be very ideal as she can't activate Inferno Trigger if she can't properly stack her style.”
Alcocyn says “Getting your main damage ability or ultimate W'd away isn't fun for anyone. Always try your best to fight and kill when it's on CD. Hurts when you fire an ult to kill only to see it leave without a trace. ”
muscella says “One of the easiest ADC's to play against. Most of the time the players who play her are weak. Early weak so try to kill her at level 1-3.”
Msloikturbo says “Samira is a powerhouse in every stage of the game (even early, if paired with a good support). You should be extremely careful while facing champions such as Samira, Kalista, Jhin and Xayah, because they will outrun you, outdamage you in the early/mid game, and can easily snowball out of control. Be wary of their powerspikes and play around your team.
”
Nekostn says “If she uses her W (projectile wall) right, she can completely block your main damage dealers (as well as any of your attacks). If you go in, make sure to engage after she uses her W.”
Cam1304 says “I always tend to ban Samira as her champion is just better than vayne early and her dash can create and easy kill onto you if your not careful. ”
SweatMeALake says “Samira is a short range full dive type champ with high mobility. Samira struggles in the early game and needs items to succeed. Caitlyn can shut out Samira and ensure she stays behind longer.”
Kdrama says “You can easily destroy a samira lvl 1-2 but once she hits lvl 3, she can completely nullify your iso q + w combo with her w. Once she hits 6, she can basically annihilate you simply b/c of champ diff. ”
