Tips Against Twitch in Bottom Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
LostFishEU says “Twitch doesnt bring a lot of threat towards Vayne. He gets a big boost in attack speed once he comes out of stealth, but other than that he doesn't have any direct counters towards Vayne. ”
ELOSANTA says “Twitch loses to Lucian pretty hard, just like Sivir he wants to farm for his items, which a lane bully like Lucian excels at stopping. Engage / trade early on to make it hard for Twitch to farm for his items.”
koog says “It's pretty easy for twitch to open up on aphelios whenever he wants. If he can kill you try to stay around control wards. I recommend galeforce here to get away from him if he tries to assassinate you. ”
LegendaryOstrich says “Twitch is very weak early game just be cautious not to have too many of his passive stacks on you when you trade with him. Outside of lane be careful of his invisibility if he is not on the map just play safe, don't use your dash. AP Twitch can be a monster late game so be careful of his range after level 6.”
A_Drunk_Carry says “This rat is a pain in the ass. AP or AD he'll sneak up on you, pop his ult, then pop your health bar. Get pink wards, never push side lanes alone past laning phase, and stay near your support. ”
Vapora Dark says “Twitch is a potent mid game assassin, and a teamfighting powerhouse. Early game however he's pretty weak. Avoid long fights so he can't expunge you for a lot of damage, so poke him with Q bounces and 4th Whisper rounds. Later on stay close to your team and pay attention to how you plan your Curtain Call as he can open up on you and kill you before you even realise he's there. ”
A_Drunk_Carry says “Both the AP and AD versions of Twitch are very problematic for Ezreal. He can quickly sneak in while invis vs you and burst you down. Keep a pink ward handy, and don't overextend without your support. ”
Trieuloo says “This matchup is even in a sense that if both players play it correctly veigar wins, BUT if twitch gets a lead it is impossible for veigar as he just perma outranges you. If he goes ap its somewhat manageable, but AD is really really FF”
Alvatorz says “He sneaks, he hides, but most importantly, he kill you. Twitch is so hard to trade, Aphelios needs time to set up his weapons and his damages, Twitch don't allow you time to do it, he just kill you faster, but dw, Twitch is not a common adc now.”
HyroPyro says “Twitch is only more threatening than some of the other AD Carries because some players are caught off guard from the Ambush (Q) and the Hail of Blades attack speed. Buy a control ward and place it in the lane brush to avoid these sneak attacks. Remember to ping if Twitch is NOT in lane to warn your teammates of roams. With an engage support such as Leona, Nautilus and Thresh, you are able to highly out damage Twitch and go for kills. Remember as well that Twitch's Contaminate (E) has a 1200 range, so if you are going to die, try to escape that range. Make sure not to fight extended fights as Twitch's Contaminate (E) at six stacks does a large amount of damage. Either try to poke him out or do burst trades.”
EzVeryReal says “Unless he's with Lulu OR a GOOD Yuumi. You'll run this rat down if he's the ADC. If he's the support, it's GGs. If you have an engage support you can farm kills between him and his ADC. ”
Chaeha says “Twitch is pretty weak during the laning phase but once he hits 6 and gets off from a reset/recall, Kai'Sa has to respect the invisibility one shot potential that Twitch has by outranging her with his ultimate. ”
Harambe Homie says “Twitch can be hard to play against. Twitch has a combination of really high range, and extremely high DPS. Two things that swain doesn't enjoy going against. Generally speaking you can win games vs Twitch but watch out for this matchup”
Penguto says “He doesn't have CC and he's very easy to kill. Just make sure you kill him quick or he will just run away because he goes invis. And you are stronger than him late.”
Ekezun says “Be sure to not forget to buy pinkwards, focus him in both fights botlane and in teamfights since he is very vulnerable and has no escape except for his Q, burst him down”
R3Veal says “Twitch's early game is actually quite poor. He can't do much unless he gets quite fed. The only way he can poke you is his W and E and if he gets to close just focus him as he shouldn't even try to fight early game.”
Boast says “Twitch's stealth can be a huge problem for Jhin because he loses most of his pressure if he cant lead with the first auto-attack. Flanks also can happen while ulting.”
DoublefeedOP says “Twitch isn't much of a threat because he has a surprise element but you could just Arcane Shift away. You should be able to easily pick him out”
FunkyBeagle says “Twitch isnt that big of a deal as long as you respect his invisibility and level 6 spike. Dont willingly take his passive stacks from his W, his early game is very weak.”
APC Ziggs says “No dash, no slow, abysmally bad early. With an agressive support the lane is free as long as he does't get kills early. Poke him to death and make him hate his life.”
lenithebot says “Play aggressive early game to try and make leads. He does out-scale your late game. Make sure to notice when he is not on the map and he might plan to surprise you with his invisibillity.”
Melyn says “Twitch is a very good matchup early. Max E, poke with Q, and all in as soon as possible. Be very careful not to get surprised by his Q, especially after level 6. Also remember (in a close fight) you can flash his autos when he's ulting.”
KoZee says “Twitch has 2 playstyles, AD and AP. They both are heavily reliant on bursting you down, AD through shredding with autos and AP through stacking his passive and bursting you with his E. Once he comes out of his invisibility, her will often use R to try to shred you. However, without the element of surprise on his side, he becomes a lot weaker, as you can simply ult him and he can't really escape. You shred him down quickly, but he can to. He relies on playing around his invisibility to win lane to scale though, so just be careful of it and be constantly aware of when he goes out of vision.”
snowcard says “Again, this guy auto attacks you to death. He's very squishy though. You can try to predict his E, but it's pretty difficult. You can't block his W.
What you can block: E, one R bullet.”
Delta eGirl says “Twitch's invisibility should be played around at all times. As long as you don't play in his ult you should be good, but it's still going to be rough. Just don't forget about Twitch or you will be assassinated.”
BRYSE DRAVEN XD says “YOU WIN IF YOU GET NEAR HIM. BUT TWITCH AND LULU COMBO IS OP AF. YOU NEED UR SUPPORT TO ENGAGE IN UNLESS TWITCH MESSES UP. TWITCH/LULU WILL BEAT YOU IF YOU JUST RUSH IN WITHOUT UR SUPPORTS HELP TO POKE. BUT A TWITCH WITHOUT LULU IS AN AUTO WIN FOR DRAVEN.”
T0nn says “Havent played a lot against the new twitch and his new build. Tho he is a sneaky bastard. I recommend having control wards in inventory till mid to late game where you just one shot him when he gets out of stealth. Be warry of his R range advantage and play around bushes. The problem is getting near him when his R is off cd.”
Inoriboob says “Twitch is not a problem but with lulu will outdamage you and unplayable, Ap twitch will outpoke you and can outdamage you late game, AD is very weak and should be punished early.”
Xayaphelia says “Xayah is able to oneshot Twitch if he takes a bad engage. He is only really a threat if you are unable to take him out. Basically it comes down to who can drop the other one faster.”
LilPicky says “If you have this champion in the opposing team, be aware that you will have a tough game against him.If you want to beat him, you have to wait for the gank or for support to catch him, otherwise you have little chance to win 1v1 with him”
angata500 says “Play aggresive and try to shut him down early. Abuse his shorter range by poking any time when possible with your Zap! and Fishbones! Dont let him stack his E on you. Beware of his invisibility and try to kill him as soon as he shows up in team fight. Expect him to roam a lot and play defensive if you dont see him on your minimap.”
TheGronne says “I don't know what it is, but I found twitch to be extremely hard to deal with. His consistent dps and his E damage makes him very hard to fight. Gets easier if you W his W though.”
ooftheiii says “Be careful in lane when you see the enemy support alone, Twitch might be trying a sneaky engage if the support is walking towards you.Avoid clumping against a Twitch because his ultimate deals massive damage to targets in a line. Twitch is extremely vulnerable, and has no escape abilities. Try to focus him in teamfights.Be careful to save, Stuns, snares, and bindings temporarily disabling movement, for when twitch activated his ultimate, as it buffs his DPS hugely. This only applies in the late game, as ruining twitch's early game is priority!”
kingamazin says “You probably won't see a lot of twitch, but he is a pretty strong pick into jinx. A few things to remember is to never walk up alone when twitch is off the map. He can easily ambush you from stealth with his q and pick you off for a free kill. He scales just as well as you, and has just as much range as you when he activates his r. Try to remain aware of where twitch is at all times, as he is much weaker in vision compared to when he is stealthed. ”
Bluestrat says “Twitch can be a very easy or a very tough opponent. It depends on who gains a greater advantage.
If Twitch is stronger, he has the possibility to beat us in a 1v1.
If we are stronger and get our Q-EVOLVE, we can beat Twitch in a 1v1. ”
Trampedach says “Bonkers. If he doesn't have lulu perma on him you can ult and one shot him every time you see him. Easy trade patterns if you auto Q burst. Don't take extended fights as he will win with poision and E. ”
YoonaBoona says “Twitch is a high range and sneaky champion. His invisibility can really mess you up if he appears on you late game and opens fire. Once he gets items and ultimate, he will be able to kill you from afar and you cannot escape. Look to beat twitch in the early game with your range, and don't let him get a lead over you. ”
Bluestrat says “Twitch kann ein sehr einfacher oder ein sehr harter Gegner sein. Es hängt davon ab, wer einen größeren Vorteil erzielt.
Ist Twitch stärker, hat der die Möglichkeit uns in einem 1v1 zu besiegen.
Sind wir stärker und bekommen unser Q-EVOLVE, können wir Twitch in einem 1v1 zu schlagen. ”
Atrickster says “he out scale you super hard and his lane is quiet good specialy ap twitch try to not give leads and keep track of him 1 bad teamfight and he can win the game”
ctm20141 says “Completely free lane pre lv 6. At lv 6 he can cheese you with his Q and ulti. For this particular reason I take Exhaust. If you have Exhaust you ALWAYS win 1v1s.
Abuse him HARD early/mid game, he has a better teamfight potential later on!”
Tifforma says “I HATE TWITCH. INVISIBILITY IS REALLY ANNOYING. He has high damage, if he has a good peel, you will struggle. Play safe, get a hard CC support. Get a jungle help. ”
Kalista Monster says “Twitch has very strong slows and his invis makes it hard to kill him. He always outscales and can easily delete you at the start of fights. Ap twitch is very hard to beat, Ad is a bit easier.”
NathanPyke says “Easy to kill adc , but very hard to get close if he has a heavy cc support.
for jungle its easy in the early game but late game is very hard to kill him”
Remmacs1 says “I've changed my opinion about this match up as of patch 11.14, I feel that Aphelios has very few weapons to keep Twitch from blowing open the game. Twitch is able to punish Aphelios' gun rotations better than any adc and if he finds you without red/white or green/white consider yourself smoked. This is my go to ban as of late because if you don't have an engage support you're most likely not going to win this match up. I recommend you try to cheese Twitch with grav from bush or all-in him with red/white to get yourself a lead before he takes over.”
McNugglz says “Twitch has gone from something to not worry about to something you should be fearing. The fact twitch can rush nashors tooth and get max passive stacks, press e and win is a problem. BAN THIS!!”
Dank672 says “If he gets ahead he can snowball his lead thanks to his Q forcing fights or roaming, but until he gets one you can put a lot of pressure on him (especially early levels). Give him the chance to farm and he outscales you, so just keep pressure on him and take any picks you can get.”
EvoNinja7 says “He isn't too powerful pre level 6, but once he hits 6 he can absolutely MELT your health bar, so try not to take too many trades unless he's low or has no ulti up. He's like Teemo, you need to have vision of him or you'll get burst down.”
Scrimm says “Most Twitch player's will also take HoB, making it difficult for you since Twitch can merely auto you with HoB then E for trades, whereas you would have to land a W to get similar damage. Try to be aware of when he leaves vision to use his Q camouflage, since getting hit by Twitch W slow will allow him to get maximum value out of his E.”
SkittleBtw says “?? Haha, just laugh at him while you farm and then kill him at 3. If your support is bad, he has a decent chance to get some kills early, then things can turn bad, but just blame the jungler or something, most of the time this is a free lane. If it was 1v1 lane, you win everytime.”
jhoijhoi says “Twitch relies heavily on auto-attacks and his Venom Cask to poison you so he can use Expunge to apply large damage or harass. It's best to use your slow to kite. Be wary for when he leaves your vision because his stealth can let him get in close and do a lot of damage. Volley can hit an invisible twitch and give away where he is hiding. Be careful of Twitch's ultimate giving him increased damage and extremely high range.”
yers says “Squishy and easy to kill when he's not stealthed or lv 6. Once you have ult and you stun combo him, try to use it as fast as possible so that he can't invis out and make you lose the chance to PNC him.”
GodMulti says “Twitch is one of the easiest matchups , avoid getting hit by his bomb and you win every trade , ult him when he is ulting because the most twitches just stand still when they spray and pray”
GariKun says “As for Ashe, if he's ahead u hardly reach him (he deals TONS of damage)
but if u push him out of lane, he will run away from you as the rat he is.”
Bouhhsolene says “He's like so Squishy, he's an easy kill in lane if you hit W. The only problem is his range in teamfights, you won't really be able to hit him unless you flashes. Just put him behind early and you're cool.”
Cam1304 says “Twitch isn't very strong early but will still kill you in most scenarios if you aren't careful for his q. If you hit a successful E you will be able to kill him easily.”
SweatMeALake says “Twitch is a high damage late game hyper carry. As Ashe your job here is to make sure he ramps slowly and does not snowball. In lane Twitch does not do as well as you do, watch for his passive stacks, E is bursty early game. Watch for his Q which makes in invisible, Twitch almost acts like an Assassin. ”
SweatMeALake says “You beat Twitch in a 1v1 actually in every stage of the game. You must be careful for his positioning AT ALL TIMES. He has a huge team wipe potential, so you must be careful. ”
Mephiix Unleashed says “Twitch struggles in lane so it's fairly easy to face him, you outrange him, can win almost every trade, specially when your fourth shot is up, make sure you are not standing in his poison cloud(W) while laning. Twitch only becomes a problem when he gets fed, be careful when he gets Infinity edge that's his biggest powerspike, also try to close the game before he hits 4,5 items, otherwise it becomes rly hard to fight him”
Spection says “RARE. A poor laner against most ADC's, Pantheon is no exception. Twitch has almost no CC but good escape with his invisibility move. The second you see him start to go invisible, stun him to make him cry. ”
ShroudedBRH says “You can deal with him early during the lane phase but once he gets 3 items it becomes difficult to handle him as he will begin roaming and taking difficult positions during team fights. Be patient with your R and try to wait for him to show before you all in on a fight.”
Camelorry says “This is a tricky one because you completely demolish Twitch in laning phase but once he gets his 3 items there's not much you can do unless you are giga fed. So try to stomp him as fast as you can. ”
Ikare says “The rat is a really easy lane. He has short range, poor escape and poor all-in. You really want to all-in him and snowball. Keep in mind that if you freeze, he may gank other lanes with his Q.”
Kdrama says “Your w reveals his stealth and he can't ever outtrade you at any stage in the game. Probably go full ap build and annihilate him mid to late. ”
StriveHD79 says “He will come at you in stealth, and if he does catches you by surprise you will die since he gets attack speed buff coming out of stealth. You will need to mindful at all times when he is missing on the mini map that he could be coming for you. He is very weak in lane but once he reaches level 6 he will look for some stealth plays with his ultimate.”
StriveHD79 says “His game plan is stealth. He will try to stealth close to you to close the distance. Just be mindful that whenever twtich is missing he is coming for you and you will be okay. When he come out of stealth he will gain attack speed and he has an AOE slow, and the poison stack will do decent damage against you. Avoid letting him get close to you, keep your distance. You should win the laning phase, harass when he goes for CS, as twitch is usually very weak early game.”
StriveHD79 says “In lane it should be straight forward, your AA slows + W will rekt him in lane. He will come at you in stealth, and if he does catches you by surprise you will die since he gets attack speed buff coming out of stealth. Save your R for him and you will be fine. Avoid places without vision control.”
StriveHD79 says “He will come at you in stealth, and if he does catches you by surprise you will die since he gets attack speed buff coming out of stealth. You will need to mindful at all times when he is missing on the mini map that he could be coming for you. He is very weak in lane but once he reaches level 6 he will look for some stealth plays with his ultimate. Once you have iceborn he should never really be able to kill you.”
StriveHD79 says “He will come at you in stealth, and if he does catches you by surprise you will die since he gets attack speed buff coming out of stealth. You will need to mindful at all times when he is missing on the mini map that he could be coming for you. He is very weak in lane but once he reaches level 6 he will look for some stealth plays with his ultimate.”
StriveHD79 says “Twitch biggest advantage is his stealth, so as long as you keep that in mind he should not be able to get a jump on you. Expect him to be looking to kill you at all times and you will never die to him 1v1. Coming out of stealth he gains extra attack speed and combine with his R, he will run you down. But other than that Twitch is fairly weak, both in lane and out of lane.”
Spider Shaped says “1 на 1 убить Твича сложно. Если вы будете от него далеко,он может включить ульт и добить вас или убить,поэтому держитесь от него подальше и убивайье при возможности в начале.”
StriveHD79 says “He will come at you in stealth, and if he does catches you by surprise you will die since he gets attack speed buff coming out of stealth. You will need to mindful at all times when he is missing on the mini map that he could be coming for you. He is very weak in lane but once he reaches level 6 he will look for some stealth plays with his ultimate. You should be able to bully him really hard in lane.”
snukumz says “Super annoying to play against due to his invisibility, how much damage he does, and how squishy you are.
Be VERY careful when playing again Twitch as he likes to pay stealth plays with his support and kill you.
However, if he isn't making stealth plays you can out range him and poke him down easily as he is squishy, has low mobility, and low range without his ult. ”
Terrific says “I feel like Twitch is really bad if he does not have a Lulu, Yuumi or anything that enhances his AA's. Tho do not underestimate his power. Once he has enough AS and AD he will shred. But most likely you win hard in laningphase. Care for his invis when he comes back in lane,he might do a sneaky opener with his support. But it will look very obvious.”
xSEASeahawks12 says “Since Kalista has one of the best early games of any ADC, you can counter Twitch pretty easily. By poking/engaging on him at any chance you have in lane, you can destroy him. Twitch absolutely needs time to scale and snowball, and you are the perfect champion to prevent that. In teamfights, withhold Fate's Call until he surfaces, then press R and let your support get right on top of him. ”
Zoodyacc says “I really think Twitch is one of the best champions that can counter Vayne, along with Draven. His E can deal huge damage to you, try to also avoid getting caught in W of his, play as safe as you can untill you're confident you can kill him, or you catch him up off guard. You might want to try to Condem him into the wall and then bursting him.”
TwentyOneShadows says “I have faced Twitch few times on botlane, but it always went well, his all-ins are not as strong as yours, but dont underestimate him, once you managed to get him out of the lane, he can be at your back in a moment!”
atonementblade says “You have more damage than him in teamfights if his ult is on CD, but not too much you can spell shield (except for the slow on his W).”
atonementblade says “Twitch is actually one of the few ADC's that can rip through tanks as easily as you, and often with safer access. You'll win early trades if you can proc your PTA though.”
Loki029 says “Build Thormail, buy Vision ward, and the twitch will bann Garen next Match, don t let him trade, don t get 4 stacks , and a must do is your w to minimize the damage you get”
Phantom R says “Now here it is what I consider to be the major threat for Jinx. Twitch can pretty much outscale your damage in every single stage of the game, be it early, mid or late game. He can position himself very well and easily on most teamfights. Don't let him get the early advantage, otherwise it will be very hard to win against him.
In late game, try to place some wards near (but not inside!) the river bushes, so you can see whenever he goes invisible with his Q. TRY to place as many traps as you can think of a place where he could be. If he's trapped, he's doomed. Otherwhise mantain safe distance and don't get cheesed on by his Q ability.”
MayeLeven says “He can poke you with hes W or E. If he max his E on you, it makes a big damage, but you can still trade him with your auto-attacks. In early he's weaker than you, so you can trade with him, In the late game, your only chance to kill him, if you use your R invisibility.”
Midorima says “You win trades and usually push. If he wants to win push versus you, he will run out of mana.
To win this match up: Level 6 and the hunt begins. Always be aware that whenever he is missing or coming back into lane from death or basing, he will probably walk into lane invisibly.”
Szauronmester says “You can outtrade him in lane, past lvl 6 watch mid, and if he is missing go up, and countergank. Late he will try to flank your team, so save your W and all-in him to cut the main dmg dealer in the enemy.”
HyperFake says “Twitch can be a huge threat if he can get distance and use his ult wisely. Otherwise it is a bit squishy champion so it's not extreme.”
ZERO Destructo says “You might wanna consider maxing E in this matchup. Place traps into the sides of lane and into bush. That way you can slow him and deal some damage when he tries to attack you from his Q, and you'll also know his direction if he uses Q to run. You have upper hand pre-6th level, so try to use that as much as you can.”
Nik7857 says “One of the best late game carries. He's pretty bad as an adc and even worse as jungler (rn). He has a big slow. He also wins extended trades. Though he doesn't do as much as you in the early game. Watch out for cheese if hes randomly missing and his support is playing a little fishy. He will out scale you hard and win the game. Ez lane though.”
Alchemisting says “easy, not much to say its just a free win.
His early is so bad that u win any trade, even if u die aginst him 3 times in 8 min u will kill him.
But dont stall the game like 40min cuz then u will lose unless the enemy team doesnt have much peel then u just onehsot him.”
Mr. Nyahr says “He has no direct escapes, and his invis takes a moment to activate. Use this to your advantage. Don't cluster with minions/teammates to avoid getting stacks from his poison and to avoid the line damage from his ult. (It hurts, a lot).”
Laverenz says “Twitch is weak early game. Try to farm up, and dodge his W, as his poison can be able to deal a lot of damage through his E. Use Tumble to dodge his W. Don't fight level 6 against him, as his Ult gives him a lot of range, which is a big counter for vayne, as you need to be up close to the enemy target. ”
MewlingRavenPaw says “Do not take elongated fights super early until you have an item lead as Twitch does surprisingly high amounts of damage with his poison instead focus on Press the Attack trades with a Q thrown in for good measure to keep him in check. Once you build up an HP lead and he falls below 40% hp look for the all in. 60% hp is fine if your support has hard CC. ”
minepro221 says “He only in early if he gets a 3 -6 stack expunge. Don't stand in his W! But his combos take too much mana, so he cant keep it up. if he runs out of mana, you can punish him. He would want to roam, so shove him in and ping your team if he is Mia. After 6, if you dont see him, start to walk towards mid until your midlaners is barely in your R range. If she shows up mid, Boom, counter gank! In mid and late game, be careful of his steal r, as it really hurts. In teamfights, he will try to flank you, so hold on to your skills until he shows up. Then you can him in one rotation.”
minepro221 says “He is bad in lane, so abuse him. Harass on cs, and shove him under tower. Be sure to ping MIA if her recalls or dissappears. Twitch like to run to other lanes after basing, and gank. If you shove him under tower, he can't roam, which is great. In the mid game, dont go alone in the jungle, or side lane. He is designed to catch you. Late game, he will try to flank you and kill back line. Nothing compares to a twitch's damage to squishies, so kill on sight.”
Kynaz0071l0l says “The only annoying thing about twitch is his Q. He can easily sneak up on you or get away from you. In earlygame he has no poke apart from his E so hes not that big of a thread”
Eucalyptus says “Depends on the Twitch, but generally they will be one of 4 or so champs that outscale you in the bot lane. You can eliminate his level 6 or at least force his flash with your Smokescreen but don't count on it.”
Fruxo says “Doesn't have too much damage or range pre-6 so take advantage of that. After level 6 he gains big boost in range with his ult so be careful of that too.”
MrDecoy says “low range, low dmg, bad wave clear, really easy target for xayah, be careful not to get cheesed by him on the way back to lane, think twice about engaging on someone who looks like they're just trolling on their own”
HikariGames says “Twitch is often a winning matchup. His early game is super weak so look to bully him with your Q and fourth shot. If you have an all in support like Nautilis you can try to look for a kill at level 3.”
DOOM-guy says “If he Plays Adc you will win definetly a 1v1 with him and the Laning phase because you deny his Damage with your Q. But why is he a Tiny threat when he Plays adc? It's getting obivious when he isn't in place. So it's much easier to track him.”
dravenfizz says “Twitch's early is horrible just E->Q him in lane and zone him off CS, once you kill him once once or twice just perma dive him, KEEP IN MIND this champ isn't that bad in long trades and he can do quite a bit of damage when he has max stacks on his Contaminate.”
Ryl Storm says “A champion that goes even at the beginning of the laning phase, but if played to his strengths, will make Jhin completely useless from the midgame straight to defeat.”
Fruxo says “Doesn't have too much damage or range pre-6 so take advantage of that. After level 6 he gains big boost in range with his ult so be careful of that too.”
IPodPulse says “Take Doran's shield and don't stay in his venom cask. Pay attention to where he is, if you don't see him, assume he is invisible. Unless you know you can kill him, try to disengage with chain of corruption whenever he uses his ultimate. Alternatively you can engage with chain corruption if he is out of place and try to kill him.
Buying a pink ward to place in one of the side bushes can be helpful for whenever he is invisible. ”
Potato95x says “This little thing's dangerous if you're not careful. His passive deals true damage, so life items are the best against him. His Q renders him invisible with bonus MS, giving AS after its end. His W deals slow and venom, while his E deals AD for each venom stack. Watch out for his Ult, it doesn't end his Q and deals a lotta damage. Play passively and ask for ganks.”
SimbaADC says “Abuse twitch's low auto attack range and lack of instant waveclear to push and poke him down. Be wary of him cheesing by coming into lane while invisible. If you just see the enemy support, expect twitch to be close by and ready to attack you.”
SlashLion says “Twitch is annoying, but fairly weak early game. he hits a power spike at level 6 but just bully him and he wont be a big issue unless he gets fed of course. "Mean Mouse Hurts."”
MallisTheGreat says “Make sure to poke him in early game, then be sure to cast your E in case he becomes invisible, so that you can see his rough position. He shouldn't pose a threat.”
MallisTheGreat says “You can't kill what you can't see, he is going to engage you pretty often while he is invisible. If the enemy support is making a move or trying to engage, beware. Your W will only show his position either whenever he is invisible, so you still won't be able to fire at him.”
SmoreEater says “Honestly he is PERSONALLY my least favorite champ to go against will Predator Teemo. His W will allow him to easily slow you down then Q and avoid being hit by your Q, running to the bush and proceeding to mow you down. He has the early advantage, but once you get Control Wards then it's easy to counter him, you just have to make sure that you don't feed him early game.”
Shake the Shade says “You need to oppress Twitch early or he will outscale you. As with rengar, you need to watch out for the point in the game where he can 1 shot you out of stealth.”
BurstTheBots says “It can be very hard to predict where he is even with wards because if the Twitch is smart he'll Q before he gets near a bush making your wards useless. Your only hope is that he either uses his Q in ward view or bush or you know where he is at all times. Luckily for you though people don't seem to pick Twitch jungle very often or at least from what I've seen.”
Lydeer says “Until level 6 you simply are better than him, go away of his W, and dont let him E you with 6 stacks. If he comes in stealth and position behind you, jump with you support and destroy him”
BL00dY3nD says “Just dont get pocked by his W,E too much and CS better than he does. If he gets invisible use your W to keep him Visible. Try to stay out of his R.”
bluejaypig says “He cheeses laners and you really hard. My advice from personal experience: NEVER LOOK AWAY FROM YOUR HEALTH BAR OR YOUR CHAMPION ICON ON THE MINIMAP, if you can do this then your chances of beating him in increased a lot.”
Fruxo says “Doesn't have too much damage or range pre-6 so take advantage of that. After level 6 he gains big boost in range with his ult so be careful of that too.”
jster131 says “Unless you are playing against a twitch main, you won the lane already. Twitch isn't in that good of a spot right now, due to Marksman item changes (Thx RITO). Just poke him out as much as you can and try to zone him from the wave.”
LW888 says “One of the easiest matchups.
If you cant one shot him right away, try short trades, because he can easily win long trades due to his Passive+E.
If he ever gets out of his Q and tries to kill you, immediately try to burst him -> E+P+Q+W+P (P=Passive)”
xTheUnlimited says “You got a bit more range and early poke damage towards him, which you can use to pressure the lane. Can be really dangerous since he can come out of nowhere and crit the hell out of you. You can't keep up with his late game scaling. Try to harrass him in lane as much as possible.”
xTheUnlimited says “Depends on how your lane works out against him. If he gets ahead of you, youre done. You can all in him tho with an aggressive support since he has no escape move in his kit. ”
TruMediaMix1 says “Definitely one of your biggest threats. He can easily shave away your HP bit by bit thanks to his Deadly Poison, and he can easily kill you if he catches you out of position or away from your team.”
xTheUnlimited says “In lane he isn't that strong, but he can keep up through the lane. Since mid game he is pretty powerful with his good spray damage. Try to poke him alot in lane. ”
Ch33syB0y8 says “Almost a non-factor to the team until 3/4 items, the early game is where you will have to get ahead of Twitch and make sure he doesn't get his items.”
qasddsa says “In lane, you want to abuse his shorter range by poking with Fishbones whenever possible. Against him, you want to win trades as much as you can to put him behind, since he has a strong mid-late game. In teamfights, he has a lot of pressure with his invisibility and ultimate, so you need to shut him down immediately when you see him.”
weinerman says “hah, pathetic, you might think that twitch could be a problem because his e is hard to predict to spell shield and he is an auto reliant adc with a high auto range. well ur a dumdumhead then. basically, just keep pressuring him with q's until he can literally do nothing, his ult is almost scary but actually just kidding u can just run away. OH YEAH his e right? but just think about it logically, he's not going to pop e immedately and wait for you to be almost out of e range for max damage so it's pretty easy to predict if you think about it like that, just e while ur running the last few meters ;)”
EagleBlades says “Very hard lane. lvl 6 just back. Only way you win is if he messes up and ults early. Bait his ult and then you ult to run away, unless he doesn't flash.”
Hers Wolf says “Twitch is kind of a skill lane, the one who play's better in the laning phase wins, both have really good late/mid games, try to stomp him early game, abuse his lack of mobility”
AisBuax says “Invisible champs vs Jinx, at least for me, are big threats. If he comes and catches you off-guard, or has an advantage and uses his R after his invisibility, you are dead. Try to poke him with your Q's rockets.”
VincentDowel says “Super squishy and immoblie, feed off of his guy as much as you can to get ahead, he can't do anything if you invade unless he has his teammates.”
Robin Banks says “If he gets a lead in lane, you probably wont recover for a while. Twitch's like to cheese so if you ever think you're alone in lane, chances are twitch is coming to murder you out of his stealth. Late game, his DPS is much higher but with this build you can oneshot him if you land your W-E->Q combo. ”
Nittwerp says “This is kind of a tricky lane because he can basically kill you when he initiates with Q + R. However head-on fights can you easily win. So don't be afraid of him, just make sure you get vision on him(Control Wards) and you should be able to do fine.”
KamiKZ says “This match up is Graves favored. You should always be able to fight twitch 1v1 as long as you find him. Try to track him down and contest his camps. Oracle lense is a good item against his stealth mode in Q so you are able to track his pathing.”
Frillen says “Mind the level one buff steal and the level 2 ganks. If he gets snowballing it can get nasty, if you are even or ahead Rammus counter Twitch really hard from the mid game and beyond. ”
ak521 says “You may very well be able to 1v1 twitch. Especially as AP- even as tank, your E will be forced to get on low cooldowns supposing he wants to kill you. Slow clear speed and decent ganks (depends on player). You can contest drakes as you will normally be ahead of him (due to clear speed). Your only goal is to not mess this up and put him ahead!”
Polarshift says “What? Run him down in his own jungle. Jungletracking and gamesense is very important versus cheesy matchups. Invade his second buff. Twitch can gank level 2 after Red Brambleback, and he can try to cheese pre-minions.”
Kayn Mains says “Twitch will try to level 2 gank one of your lanes almost 90% of the time. Make sure that your allies are aware of this early threat while laning by either pinging or mentioning it in chat. Full clear your jungle and look to take his red side camps. If you happen to run into him, try forcing a fight when it is safe as you will beat him.
The same goes for midgame, you should always come out victorious in a 1v1 unless you're behind.
When it comes to lategame you can pretty much spawn kill Twitch if you chose Shadow Assassin. Him being a squishy adc with limited mobility makes him a perfect target.”
Rhoku says “He has no self peel and is defenceless. He can't even kite you properly without red buff. You can't countergank him levels 1-3 too well but invading him is a piece of cake. Get fed off of him and carry your team.”
SaltCat says “He isnt played jungle often but of well, you beat him early game and late game, except if he has immortal shieldbow then you will strugle a little bit, but you straight up beat him whole game”
LilPaniniUwU says “Twitch will try to level 2 gank one of your lanes almost 90% of the time. Make sure that your allies are aware of this early threat while laning by either pinging or mentioning it in chat. Full clear your jungle and look to take his red side camps. If you happen to run into him, try forcing a fight when it is safe as you will beat him. The same goes for midgame, you should always come out victorious in a 1v1 unless you're behind.

Tormentula says “Elise stomps Twitch in 1v1s early, can invade him nonstop since he's too squishy to survive long for help and has a weak clear. The main thing to consider about Twitch jungle is that they often level 2 gank after red buff, after that its unlikely he'll be doing much, especially if you're invading, at least until he gets 3 full items. Warn your team of him potentially level 2 cheesing mid and bot, and the matchup itself should be free.”
AST Raposo says “Twitch jungle in Brazil is very common and is a nasty matchup,cause you most of time will be low-health and he will always trying to invade you. He will always gank level 2 or 3 making his team ahead,and you can't respond him so well with a countergank,so he will always outlevel you. He will force you to buy pink wards,and this will delay your build.”
Loul_60 says “Twitch has a very weak clear but very good ganks, however he does like in hard CC. Going Blue form is great as you can just blast him off the Rift with your combo, he has no mobility which makes it easier. As Red form, you can easily kill him, you just need to watch out for his ability to kite well, a good Twitch player will make it tricky for you. Consider Blue smite for instant Smite R combos.”
liserith says “Twitch's main strength is his invisibility and range advantage over other junglers. As a ranged jungler, Twitch doesn't really have an edge over you. His early clear is weak; invade him after your first buff. ”
Scyreption says “twitch is easily to kill for you but his invisibility is pretty op against you for escapes + his poison makes you unable to enter demon shade as you are taking damage from it wich makes you killable because people see you.”
Karthus man says “Twitch jungle is a ganky champion. He will gank until he is fed and then be unstoppable. The way you beat him is by trying to counter gank and out farm him.”
SuperMajorPain says “Twitch has a Good escape and his Ult will penetrate all your armor so be careful, you must make sure to land your Q or save your Q to escape or hit him when he uses his R ”
SketchtheHunter says “Hahahahaha Twitch JG....
Seriously tho, you hard counter him. He has no mobility, a terrible early clear, is incredibly squishy, and crumbles against early pressure. You should be fine.”
Fresh Diamond says “With R, you almost always win if you can land it. In teamfights, try to lock him down or disrupt his damage output to allow your team enough time to kill him.”
gurubashi35 says “Twitch normally ganks at level 2 with red buff. Most laners don't know about this, so warn them to play safe during the first few minutes.
Like other ranged jungler's, take blue smite against him and try to avoid walking into his W. With R, you almost always win if you can land it.
In teamfights, try to lock him down or disrupt his damage output to allow your team enough time to kill him.”
reganakers says “Although he can tilt your team when he level 2 ganks at 2 minutes in and then your teammates complained because they've had no ganks all game long. However, if you 1v1 him its doomed for the little rat.”
RageAx says “Fuck ranged junglers, he is squishy enough to kill at any point IF you can get in range to hit him. If he kites you try to E or Q through walls and escape otherwise you're probably dead.”
Ambient12 says “RARE. A poor laner against most ADC's, Pantheon is no exception. Twitch has almost no CC but good escape with his invisibility move. The second you see him start to go invisible, stun him to make him cry.”
Dopamine_influx says “You can either late invade him, try to counter his lvl 2 gank if you think it'll be mid, or just invade his blue side if he ganks bot, then perma invade him/ countergank him. You're always stronger, try being in his face, don't let him grab scuttles.”
Xeldom says “Easy match-up. Make sure to inform teammates of Twitch potential level 2 cheese gank. Mirror his path. Most Twitch will start red buff first and gank. Invade twitch often and use ultimate to reveal his stealth.”
ZLOCO says “You may very well be able to 1v1 twitch. Especially as AP- even as tank, your E will be forced to get on low cooldowns supposing he wants to kill you. Slow clear speed and decent ganks (depends on player). You can contest drakes as you will normally be ahead of him (due to clear speed). Your only goal is to not mess this up and put him ahead!”
AWierdShoe says “Invade him whenever possible. Twitch's damage early is nothing compared to yours, and you can close the gap on him very easily. Take sweepers early to find him if he uses his Q. If you take advantage of your strong early game he cannot scale. If you're having trouble getting close you can buy RFC for extended AA range.”
Hide on Nidalee says “Hahahaha this guy is a joke for you, start blue and pay atention to countergank his lvl 2 gank, in the worst case you would take a kill xD”
DarkPit59 says “Twitch reste un ADC jungler, et à ce titre il nettoie lentement la jungle et peut être tué rapidement. Tout comme Ezreal, sa force réside sur son gank surprise niveau 2, mais il est plus difficile à gêner à cause de son propre camouflage.”
Sorrowful Prince says “He will always start red and can't clear other camps besides his buffs and gromp. Use this information to track, hunt him down, countergank him and make him hate his champ of choice. Don't let him ingame. You have the tools for it.”
GinWinsky says “Can insta-kill him at any point in the game. Kill him in his second buff if you can. Useless unless very fed. Ask your laners to be pushed under tower early.”
Nico449c says “You can try countergank him or just invade him early and he will have no chance to win against you. you can easily burn hes flash or kill him at lvl 3 if you invade. So invade or countergank him and you should win”
briguy1109 says “Twitch can cheese gank at level 2-3 very easily, but unless megafed with peel from 2+ champions on the other team, focusing him down should not be a problem. He has no mobility, and can not kite you during highlander. If you stick to him, you can also attack and Q him during his stealth. ”
The Top Bear says “Just ward up his jungle and invade a ton. You have a lot more damage then him so get fed off this dirty stinkrat. The best way to catch this guy out is to ward the jungle entrances to the lanes nearest to red buff before minions spawn. Twitch's strongest moment is at level 2. He will almost guaranteed instagank a lane and go for a kill. If you see him use q from a jg entrance, just countergank him and rip him a new one.”
LikLikLik969 says “Did he show himself? He's dead! Just make sure to keep your laners topped off on his position, as his job is to pretty much cheese spam gank.”
urrb says “This champion is dumb but not in the sense that he's a threat to you. He's dumb because your teammates will be level 2 cheesed. Yes, even after you warn them that they are going to be level 2 cheesed - even though it's well known that that's the only value this champion has as a jungler. Don't let it tilt you when it happens. Just try to track where he's going, farm, and if you ever catch him in his jungle, he won't be able to deal with you without a teammate unless he is stupidly ahead. After your first back you can start to near one shot him if he's isolated. Unless he snowballs hard off of ganks he is a free matchup vs. Kha.”
Amstramgramite says “He will kill you early because or higher AD and AS, but with 2 items you should be able to burst him. You can also catch him on his camps, easy kilos. Buy red trinket.”
SirEdgeLordYi says “you can kill him early, counter ganking is the key to win against twitch, he gets lvl 2 and goes into a lane, predict where he will go then you are gucci!”
Dyt0Xx says “Twitch is a fairly easy matchup. Your goal this game is to punish his early game as much as possible. If he ganks bot, invade his topside jungle. if he ganks top, invade his botside jungle. Place wards in his jungle to keep track of him when he doesnt gank.
having twitch jungle means that there are probably multiple enemy adc's. Build Ninja Tabis and Randuins Omen to negate some of their auto attack damage and crit damage.
If this comes to late game, you are probably screwed. You don't scale as well, so you are reliant of your team. Try to pick the easiest enemy, and rotate to objectives after.”
Laverenz says “Twitch is kind of hard to define, when talking about counters to Skarner. If you're ahead, he will be afraid of you, which makes it easy for you to counter-jungle him, making his altars available to you, which allows you to catch him easily. If he's ahead, make sure you know your strenght and his strenght at the point of the game. If you're gonna engage on him, there is no running away, you have to keep attacking him till one of you dies.”
4by3 says “Cheesy champion, his clear isn't good so you abuse him easily, he can't duel you and because you're an assassin, in teamfights you one shot him which means you beat late.”
Jadiac5 says “be on guard all the time since there can a an ugly rat coming into your vision at anytime. you will probably see each other at the same time, so reaction matters. I he sees you first its either engage and kill him,die or get tf out of there if he is fed.”
SexyKungFu says “WHEN YOU SEE A TWITCH, HE IS LIKELY DUO WITH A SUPPORT. THAT SUPPORT WILL SHIELD AND CC YOU WHILE TWITCH SHOOTS YOU TO DEATH FROM RANGE.”
Maltz says “Sooo easy to kill, remember to tell your teammates about lvl 2 cheese and focus on counterganking more than farming, if you countergank him once or twice early game should be won”
ziolo to noob says “Go into his jungle, hes squishy and easy to kill, sometimes hes not doing his camps and hes going for ganks so make sure to make his camps while he ganks midlane.”
Bielu1337 says “easy matchup, you can fight him in the jungle in early. Try to steal his camps. If you're ahead, he will be easy kill for you, even for just Q+AA+E+AA. In late try to catch him when he's using his R. Buy some control wards.”
WiskeyANDGin says “early game and middle is a problem, dont let him kite you, focus him a lot in fights and its easy, as a jg vs jg, he has a bit more pressure then u so u can focus on objectives. Get some items and its ok”
GenFrogKing777 says “Twitch poses a strong threat against Jungle Sion. His poison and stealth, especially in the early game allow Twitch to harass the initially squishy Sion.”
Optimal Pancake says “Rat. His E and passive could be slightly scary to you, but not very. He's incredibly squishy, you can one shot him in either forms, getting to him is the real issue.”
ElementressX says “Pretty easy. Even when he's fed you can still kill him 1v1 if you can get close. But with you there he shouldn't be getting fed at all.”
Exhiled says “He cheeses laners and you really hard. My advice from personal experience: NEVER LOOK AWAY FROM YOUR HEALTH BAR OR YOUR CHAMPION ICON ON THE MINIMAP, if you can do this then your chances of beating him in increased a lot.
