Samira Counters :: Counter Picking Stats for Samira by CounterStats

koog says “Exhaust is good here. Try to abuse your range and cc when fighting her. If you try to fight her with chakrams, make sure you don't auto her while she has her windwall up or else you will lose all of your bonus chakrams. Also she can eat your gravitum Q if you try to use it while a gravitum auto is in flight and she windwalls. Also severum auto attacks can go through windwalls so keep that in mind. ”

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. ”

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.”

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 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.”

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.”

snowcard says “This depends on how good the player is. If she doesn't respect your Q damage you will be able to beat her. Your Q is also a significantly shorter cooldown than her W, so you either bait her W out or poke her down. If she gets on you try to ult away, and all-in her during her ult before she gets her E resets off. She's pretty easy to burst if you get anti-heal. What you can block: Q, W damage, E damage, one R "bullet/burst."”

YoonaBoona says “Samira can be a bit of a threat if she gets a proper all in on you with her support. Jinx's E stops dashes, so placing them infront of you can either stop her from dashing in, or force her to commit without her support if she's already on you. Overall though, you do a bit less damage so watch out for her all in.”

CantParry says “Make sure to bait out her dash and pseudo-wind wall before pulling back your feathers.”

KoZee says “Samira has a couple things in her kit to counter you, such as something to block projectiles. However, the duration this is up is very low, so the second it goes down you can engage on her with R and kite back to kill her. She's also shorter range than you, so she will struggle to actually trade in lane and deal with your poke. If she gains a lead though, she can burst you extremely hard and be difficult to kill.”

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.”

Bluestrat says “Samira does not have a strong laning phase, but is especially strong in combination with an Engage. If Samira snowballs, it's hard for Kai'sa to come back. This is the same the other way around: if we have a lead against Samira, we can simply win trades and finish her off. ”

A_Drunk_Carry says “The only truly annoying part about this matchup is that she can windwall your ult. Just save ult until you know it's down. You beat her up in DPS. Grab an early executioner's calling so she doesn't perma regen off her ult and Conqueror though. Fairly straightforward lane. ”

Bluestrat says “Samira hat keine starke Laning Phase, ist aber besonders stark in Kombination mit einem Engage. Sollte Samira einmal Snowballen, ist es nur schwer für Kai'sa zurückzukommen. Dies ist aber andersherum genauso: haben wir eine Lead gegen Samira, können wir einfach Trades gewinnen und sie daraufhin erledigen. ”

ctm20141 says “From what I heard this matchup shouldn't be that difficult, but every time I face a Samira she WILL somehow block my E MELEE RANGE with her W EVERY SINGLE TIME... it happened SOOO many times that it's disgusting XD. Pre lv 6 she isn't very strong. WATCH OUR FOR HER SUPPORT! REMEMBER THAT SAMIRA CAN GET AN "AUTO" (her passive) FOR FREE WHEN YOU GET HIT BY CC! You can poke her out, but keep an eye for her support. Her lv 6 is stronger than your lv 6. To mitigate this I usually take Exhaust vs her and I ask my supp to take Ignite in order to make her ult ineffective XD (like Tristana, she has a telegraphed all in). If she manages to Wind Wall your E YOU WILL LOSE! Most of the times you will lose the 1v1s. In teamfight it's MUCH different (and kinda funny imo :D): when she uses her ult IMMEDIATELY Exhaust her and FOCUS HER DOWN ASAP! You should Auto-walk out from her ult range-auto-walk out from her ult range ecc. creating a sort of "kite": you will trade 1 auto of yours for 2/3 bullets from her ulti. If you can't kite her this way and/or she Wind Walls your E...you will see the grey screen of death VERY SOON :D.”

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.”
