Tips Against Twitch in Bottom Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
BigBoyBen69 says “annoying rat which i consider banning but if you play aggressive early you should be able to beat him”
killpyroxen says “Twitch has a lot of range and damage but during laning phase he's pretty weak. take short trades to not let his passive stack up. Make sure to notice when he's using his q or is missing for too long and don't over-extend, also make sure to alert your team since he might be roaming. Make sure to trade hard if you have a lot of cc and he's caught up.”
Alvatorz says “I would say it's a Twitch favor matchup but this is weird. To be honest i would say it depends on the support but on term of 1v1, Twitch as the lead. Don't fight him too much and don't get ambushed.”
AbyssaLegend says “Twitch has a really long range so he can hit you from afar. He also become invisible and you can't even know if he's near to you or he's not there anymore.”
TangsterinE says “His early game is super weak and you can abuse him. You can easily 100-0 burst him late game. I never have too much problem with Twitches.”
Demonsedge90 says “This matchup is fairly straightforward, just avoid his w cask so you don't get affected by the poison and get hit by his contaminate e. Be sure to watch out if he stealth's too.”
wardinbush says “You outdamage him early game, try to get fed off him to deny him from scaling and doing damage in the late game. If he runs kraken slayer then run dd and bt to have sustain and deal alot of damage into him”
DeadlyS27 says “Reaction time plays part in this matchup. When you see him going out of invis ult him and begin charging QW to hope to oneshot him first”
Krilep 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.”
DustRose says “Twitch has been a counter to Jinx for as long as I can remember, and I still hate fighting him (Crit or On-Hit). If you inevitably HAVE to lane against him, focus on poking with rockets and/or leaning on your support.”
Dattura says “Scary in late with invincible and burst damage. Early he shouldn't be a problem to you. try to play around pink ward and don't overextend without your support ”
Kingof3o says “Scary in late with invincible and burst damage. Early he shouldn't be a problem to you. try to play around pink ward and don't overextend without your support ”
Valhalla Coach says “He does 1 thing: sneak up on you and press R, he will likely go galeforce to dodge your R. Play very close to your support, place pinks everywhere you go and be prepared always. Never push wave alone or if you don't have double summoners up. Before 6 he doesn't really have a threat on you so abuse him while you can”
Sellsword says “You do beat Twitch in lane by poking him with Q and having better waveclear, and you can try to freeze for a gank. The thing is that he may be able to avoid the gank with his camouflage from Q, and after level 6 (or sometimes even earlier) he'll begin using said stealth to constantly try to pick up kills around the map - especially true if he is playing AP Twitch. So whenever he isn't to be seen on the map, be very careful. If he doesn't get fed, you'll be more useful than him, since he is immobile and easy to dive on.”
PancakeKittiwake says “Twitch will jumpscare you and obliterate you in 2 seconds, if you don’t know where he is be extra careful bc he absolutely outranges you with his ult ”
Amberdragon says “In the early game you might be able to shut him down with your support if you have engage or a favorable support matchup, but in the late game there is not much you can do against him. He will R when he is invisible and his range will be too big for you to react fast enough to kill him. Your only chance is to work with your team to catch him and use your R to chain CC him before he kills everyone.”
Nom212 says “Twitch plays more like an assassin than anything else. When you see him it's already to late. He isn't very threatening in lane if you back up under your turret when you lose vision of him since he is most likely looking to get the jump on you. A great amount of damage comes from his E Contaminate. It has a high projectile speed and can rarely be blocked in time with Spell Shield.”
Alvatorz says “Predict his all ins. If you can prevent that, lane will be easier for you and you should have the advantage, otherwise you're gonna have a bad time. He's just gonna hide and jump on you, and kills you quicker than you could do.”
IKeepItTaco says “◉ Twitch is another hyper scaling ADC, but unlike Vayne, his laning phase is actually pretty weak and something that won’t be an issue for us. His playstyle revolves around his stealth mechanic.
◉ Take short trades with [[Fishbones, the Rocket Launcher]] and avoid extended trades because Twitch will get stacks on you with his passive [[Deadly Venom]] then activated it with his E [[Contaminate]] and for extra injury he can apply [[Venom Cask]] to add more stacks and a slow so he can sneak in more auto attacks!
◉ Twitch’s best way to start extended trades or all-in 2v2 is by using his invisibility ability [[Ambush]]. If you see Twitch farming and all of a sudden he goes missing for a few seconds it’s safe to assume he used [[Ambush]] and is planning something. If you both recalled and you’re walking back to lane and you notice he’s still not here then it’s safe to assume he’s using [[Ambush]] as he returns to lane to get the jump on you!
If Twitch goes missing for too long than alert your teammates because it is not uncommon for them to gank mid lane using [[Ambush]].
◉ Win condition: Farm and scale up. Take short long range pokes and look to engage on him if he’s caught or CC. He’s very easy for you to kill if he’s locked down, but if he’s invis and on the loose you better watch out!
”
Breathly says “Like Aphelios this champion will be very hard to deal with later on but the laning phase is not very hard, you go even in lane but would slightly be favored to you unless he has a Lulu/Yuumi then he out scales you lvl 6.”
I Am Not u says “I'd put this guy in Minor if it wasn't for his camoflauge. Respect that, buy control wards, and be careful when he hits six. Do not leave your support's side.”
Vixylafoen says “Very scary since he'll be in camoflauge and have his Support bait you out, then he'll clean up easily. Remember that he's always around and hard focus him once he comes out of hiding. ”
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.”
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. ”
Urason 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. ”
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. ”
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. ”
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. ”
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.”
Coldsong says “Twitch is not a very strong ADC, especially early. He may be a problem if the enemy support is a Lulu or Yuumi and is a premade, but other than that you absolutely run this rat down! Make sure to W his E and you are golden.”
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. ”
Simon Uchinora says “Twitch is like an a Akshan, he can became invisible when he wants, but differently then akshan, twitch has more range than you with his ultimate, and alot of damage with his E, Just wait hes waste his E on the wave and go carefully to get a kill on him, and be alot of Carefully with his back at base, becauce he can came invisible and kill or waste you flash/heal.”
Rihh says “Very difficult if Twitch is paired with a Lulu or Yuumi, nearly unplayable if he becomes fed. Pay very heavy attention to where he could be in stealth and play around your team. Keep people aware of where he is with pings as well. This matchup is a heavy test of awareness and vision control.”
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.”
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. ”
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.”
Light Within says “His stealth will have you unprepared for his bursts. Phel needs time to stack chakrams or execute a decent amount of damage early unlike Twitch. Look to harass him with your weapon combos (mainly calibrum and infernum) and always care for stealth, don't overstay.”
Swearing Roomba says “Extremely hard to play against at all stages of the game. Make use of your Captive Audience (E) by predicting and placing them in spots where you think Twitch will come to you while camo'd. He can one shot you without even coming into your Auto Attack range.”
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.”
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.”
Urason says “Similar to our other immobile matchups, you can farm the Rat pretty easily (unless he has a Lulu of course ;-; ). With this in mind, you can easily look for plays on him as he has no real disengage. You need to take advantage of his weak early game or else you'll get outscaled!”
SopTop says “Besides his invis (Which you can E into) Twitch has no way of escaping. But if he builds AP he might be a little scary. However, you can counter this by just building Maw.”
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.”
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.”
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.”
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.”
Tiilisk1v1 says “Camp bushes and try close-range fights. When he is invicible just to under Tower to make sure you and your adc are safe. Take doran's shield and upgrade blinding dart first.”
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.”
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”
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”
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.”
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.”
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”
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.”
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.”
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.”
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”
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.”
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.”
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.”
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)”
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.”
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.”

Tips Against Twitch as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
DimitriLSD123 says “he will catch you off guard and kill you because he is a menace ”
spirit legacy says “If he's ad twitch it's quite easy, wait for his R and then stun him. Zhonya's great here aswell because if you stun him and then zhonya, his R will run out soon after and without R, ad twitch loses alot of damage. If he's ap you'll have a hard time walking up due to his W slow. You can't really do much vs AP twitch so try not to be greedy. ”
Maxwell_Shaco says “Twitch is fairly easy to collapse on, just keep in mind when stealthed he won't set off any boxes and throwing your clone on top of him when he ults will help your team burst him down.”
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”
Cordiall says “Twitch isn't too much of an issue, since you tend to stack armor and your E renders a big part of his ult's effectiveness just...not effective anymore. But if he gets ahead he can shred you with his stacking poison, so tread lightly.”
TheBlueImperial says “I hate AP Twitch support with a passion, it's so annoying despite how useless he is against Rell. You can freely engage on him or his carry and their is very little they can do. The true damage dots will be very annoying though, stacking health is the only way to negate it.”
teaa says “O Twitch fica invisível, aparece do seu lado, te da IK por causa da build que faz e desaparece.
Esse boneco é insuportável, se ele aparecer do seu lado e você errar o stun, acabou.
É muito difícil finalizar ele com a ultimate do Xerath porque ele some com uma habilidade e você não acha mais.
Sua ult dobra o range do AA, dando dano massivo até debaixo da torre, se te pegar desprevenido você está ferrado.
Tente não errar o stun na hora que ele aparecer, quando ficar invisível, fique alerta e recue.
Recomendo colocar uma pink na bush da lane mesmo, pra não ser pego de surpresa.
Pra evitar tudo isso, bane esse rato imundo.”
bive says “You and an early game adc like corki can all in him with ignite at lvl 1. Even if corki misses Q as long as the support misses her skill or shields herself. Even if the enemy support exhausts ur adc.”
Matador Proerd says “Mesmo sendo bastante frágil o Twitch pode causar muito estrago com sua invisibilidade, pois você também é frágil, sempre tenha seu E preparado ou um Twitch vai chegar invisível e te matar.”
itsElJefe says “Twitch does poison damage over time. Assuming he builds more DoT items it wont be fun. Its basically brand, but poison and faster attacks. And oh yeah, he goes invisible and has a stun. Play this carefully, far back, and poke. Get control wards in the bushes and run a sweeper when he's missing. ”
iKonek says “His invisibility makes him hard to pin down, but once he's locked down he's as good as dead. The only thing close to an escape he has is his Venom Cask (W). Engage when either one of or both of these abilities are on CD.”
Rasta Da Masta says “His notoriety for a weak laning phase makes him easy to push in & keep down. You just have to watch out for his roams & ping MIAs if he isn't accounted for.”
0Banda says “Playing against a Twitch in the support role is quite hard for Rakan he will poke you a lot with W and E, also his invisiblity is really annoying. Don't bother roaming much since it will poke you a lot if you keep in lane. When engaging you can focus him, as he is quite immobile and mainly because he has very low health
Against Twitch you should take Oracle Lens after your first back, in order to predict he's invisibility, also take Second Wind in order to get rid of some of he's poke”
Loolez says “Laning phase is neutral, recommend playing aggressive as twitch is easy to kill because of his low health, and his ult is very easy to block with your shield so team fights are very easy to fight.”
Spection says “Not hard to fight. He is immobile and can be locked down pretty easily. His ultimate is annoying though, and his range is very high. Respect him post 6 and try to keep a control ward in lane so you know when he is trying to get sneaky.”
Jaori says “Very easy to kill if he's without Lulu. If you find him sneaking in from the back and the teamfight is about to start, 1vs1 him. Hit him with W+E and throw him OUT of your team's range, so his ultimate goes on waste and he won't do anything in teamfight.”
SupportTooEz says “Twitch will kill you and your adc, roam, kill your mid laner, kill your top laner, and your jungle. Ping when you don't see him and warn the relevant lanes. You out scale him eventually, but it takes a while to get there.”
Pluckypenguin says “This dude ugh, his camo is basicaly a better version of your W. How thats balanced i dont know but whatever. Dont let him scale or hell become Pyke but better AND ranged. For the love of god dont feed him. Also hitting an ult on him is pretty damn hard so just either time it well or dont ult him at all.”
HerYandere says “Early game you can dominate him. First back get 2 control wards or else risk dying a lot. If he starts to snowball, there's almost nothing you can do (As in 4/0/0 or better)”
Esoterica says “Twitch relies on ambushing you at early levels to get in free damage and permanently swing the lane. Make sure you coordinate with your ADC to punish him whenever he tries to do so, or you will take damage for nothing.
If Twitch cannot be seen, assume he is hiding in a brush or coming from river to surprise you.
Ambush invisibility lasts 10-14 seconds from rank 1-5.”
DamselOfDistress says “God I hate this champ. You can burst him extremely fast but if he ambushes you first, there is nothing you can do. Pink wards. Buy pink wards. All of them!!”
KeleiX13 says “Treat him like an assassin and always have a control ward on your side of the lane for when he goes invisible. Always ping when Twitch is missing unless you know for sure he is in lane and not off to roam to mid or something. With that, make sure to ward well for mid for if you forget to ping and Twitch goes mid while you weren't aware. As he is designed to be an ADC, he is very squishy and ult-exhaust will almost guarantee his death. Go aggressive early and do not let him free scale into a monster as he can just go around, press ult and E and nuke everyone.”
Levkar says “Annoying toxic rat with high damage. It's not easy, but try to get as many passive procs as you can to shield your ADC from poison damage.”
LilRidge says “Twitch is too immobile and very squishy. You will want to all-in him frequently with your (W) Ferromancy - Crash Down and (E) Attract and Repel to ensure that he is set-back during the early game.”
GamingFrog says “You can completely shut down his R with your E. You can also block his E ability. Hitting him with Q will most likely result in his death, since he has no mobility and is fairly squishy early on”
Rainuu says “Twitch is an okay lane againt Lillia as he provides low cc and no mobility. Beware of his attack range however, that completely destroy you if you slip up.”
Ruiner of Fun says “Don't stand in his AOE effect and fling him out of position. Don't be afraid of him when he is invisible. Just hunt him down. If you have predator it will be considerable easier. He is usually alone when he is invisible a fling will negate his penetration shot on his ult. Late game monster.”
Starchase says “Never detach from your ADC, he has A LOT of damage even early on if he's going AP.
Ping like crazy whenever you don't see him in lane, he will try to roam a lot.
You don't outscale him but exhaust can negate most of his damage.”
Takitsu says “ADC Twitch: Hook = Kill/Flash pretty much every time. Twitch has no escapes as a Hypercarry. Putting twitch behind early is optimal in keeping him from doing Twitch things. Use control wards to help keep his stealth in check.”
AvengingAvacyn says “Twitch can be tricky because he can stealth to you and attack before you have a chance to crowd control him. If you manage to hit him before he goes into stealth or just after he comes out of stealth, he is squishy and easy to take down.”
Coo1breeze says “Some people play him as support. Not many, not even a lot, but he does stupid damage with the right build, so watch out if he appears to be "missing".”
SimplyGod says “He is playing Botlane and made the mistake to pick ADC, why would you bother?
Twitch Jungle?
If you don't invade him you are reported, for sure.
Go kill him!”
xDopii says “He has no damage early on and lacks mobility. Always look for fights as you will most likely outtrade him. Look out for late game and try to hook when you expect him to appear and ult.”
itizhelia says “Lately, AP Twitch has become a common thing to see in Solo Q for me and I'd say he has no threat to you in the lane as long as you know what you're doing because he heavily depends on his stealth and it's really easy to tell when Twitch is attempting a stealth attack on you.
Rakan fully counters Twitch mid-late game phase. Lane phase is the only tricky part.”
CanadaJay says “Never in my time of playing league would I believe to see Twitch Support, yet here we are. He's super squishy early game, so all it takes is for you and your ADC or jungler to gang up on him and kill him. Don't underestimate him, though. AP Twitch is a menace in the mid-late game, so you wanna make sure he doesn't get fed at all.”
Moderne says “Unimpressive in lane but murders you after. Massive range and invisibility spells your death. If you don't see vision of him, play it safe.”
Rastub P says “He can surprise attack u if u are mostly alone in mid game he can be very annoying to fight against him if he pokes u cus of his passive”
Kilo Khaos says “His invisibility makes him hard to pin down, but once he's locked down he's as good as dead. The only thing close to an escape he has is his Venom Cask (W). Engage when either one of or both of these abilities are on CD.”
moon827 says “Twitch is a high burst adc, yet doing his burst through attack speed. Try not to let him get his ultimate off, if you can ult him when he ults, forcing the amount of time he has to use his ult dwindle down.
Synergy with Sona - 6/10”
poopydoop69 says “This invisible rat will beat the crap out of you. He goes invisible, keep that in mind at all times. If the enemy twitch is Level 7 mastery, good luck. It isn't often that you face a good twitch ADC, but when you do you'll probably be under tower during most of the laning phase.”
Taric Support says “Twitch can surprise you in lane with his stealth and that is mainly the thing you should be the most scared of when facing twitch. Timing your ult can be hard, because Twitch doesnt really explode burst damage, exept when he stealth surprises people, but you should try to use your ultimate in as many fights as possible even though it may not seem "worth it". Remember that it is just a cooldown. Twitch is really easy to stun if you get close enough, and you will also be able to outdamage him in early skirmishes.”
orbiterpluto says “He cant' do a whole lot. He has a horrible early game and 0 poke. Just shut him down early or else late game he will destroy your whole team. One of the best scaling champs in the game.”
Krynomi says “His poison can be hard to work around early game if you're forced into a trade. Taking some potions to transition into the mid-game can help you not die unnecessarily.”
JustSlayter says “Really squishy and easy to focus. Just watch his poison stacks on you and be prepared to stun/ult on a moment's notice with his ability to appear anywhere.”
Gravixx says “See Shaco. Laning phase against Twitch ADC is pretty easy as he can't really dodge your E, landing a full combo on him will pretty much guarantee a death and you can outheal/shield his poison.”
Zer0XM says “Twitch is very easy to handle... doesn't get any simpler than that, he's so squishy you can out dps him in a 1v1 early game and late game you can pull him and ult him at will without any problem.”
aimez says “Twitch is a high burst adc, yet doing his burst through attack speed. Try not to let him get his ultimate off, if you can ult him when he ults, forcing the amount of time he has to use his ult dwindle down. Synergy with Sona - 6/10”
Chromuro says “Ugh, stealth. You can't see where he positions himself, so you can't react correctly. After 6 if you are even a little bit overextended he will punish you hard. It's difficult, but still doable with some "external" help.”
Vermeio says “He´s good, but got limitations. Too dependent of basic attack. A simple randuin can make his work impossible quite early. Even for your adc he won´t be a problem if you´re near. Even with good supports twitch will suffer against you.”
RainbowNova says “Twitch is a late game monster. He can go invisible, but it takes a bit, so grabbing him before that is not too hard. He has a slow, but his early game is not that great. Depending on how far the game gets, he can be either an even or an extreme Threat.”
SawyerNelson says “Expect Twitch to stealth into bot lane often. You can hook him as he stealths or is in stealth to reveal him. Disengaging fights as Twitch is ULTing then rengage. Twitch has very short range so you can easily abuse him in lane.”
TheComicalBiker says “Twitch is able to walk around invisible but once he is caught in your hook (Q) he has almost no escape. He can throw out his Venom Cask (W) and probably have to flash but other than that he is as good as dead.”
Rasta Da Masta says “His notoriety for a weak laning phase makes him easy to push in & keep down. You just have to watch out for his roams & ping MIAs if he isn't accounted for.”
SirGerumon says “For me Twitch is a pain in the A.. so i always ban him but if he is not banned he has a greater reach on you so he is able to kite for days”
I love Lun Lun says “Twitch's periodical damage makes it hard for us because if we stand in his spells or if we get attacked by him we are being poisoned and therefore our healing potential gets lower.Plus his Q is very dangerous and that's why we will need Control Wards near us.Map awareness is what counters this guy,he is very good at engaging therefore always keep your eyes fourteen and your ears open.Q'ing him is a very good way harashing him since his AA are very slow in early game and his range is not really long without his ult.Poking him will be an easy job.”

Tips Against Twitch in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Sammystinky says “He ganks well early, but if you can counter it is big. If he is strong late you often want to wait to engage until you can see him or save abilities for him to burst him. ”
Janooobi says “Only capable of killing you if very fed, should be easy ganks as Twitch doesn't have mobility, try and predict when he will show up invisible in team fights and just lay CC on him so his R does nothing to your team”
FacetLOL says “Annoying if he has a shield support with him, otherwise just try to kill him as he has a really bad early clear and just countergank his obvious ganks. And be sure to ping top/mid gank lvl 2.”
J98TheGreat says “This is a tough champion if he's good. He can be beaten, but your late game might be difficult if he is fed. You will probably need Anathema's if that happens without a doubt. Tracking him down early and exterminating him can definitely make that much easier.”
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.”
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.”
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.”
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”
MexBookMaster says “Un pick bien Cheesy, buscará gankear muy rapido así que evita que se lleve la primera sangre. Twitch jungla es 100% centrado en escalar y ser un hypercarry. Juega Shadow Assassin (Azul) e invadelo demasiado, al final es un ADC más y nosotros sabemos que a SA le encantan los ADCs. Kayn farmea 3 veces más rapido que Twicth.”
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!”
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.”
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.”
Dabgren says “Squishies, just like Twitch and many others are never a threat to you if you are ahead and enough health, you should be able to always duel squishy rangeds if you get into range of them.”
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.”
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.”

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. ”
Nanelol 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.”

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 ”
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.
