Intro: Counter ME

League of Legends (LoL) is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) video game developed and published by Riot Games. It has many different game modes in different types of battle arena, like the arena of Twisted Treeline (for 3v3), arena of Howling Abyss (5v5 all random pick) and the most useful and common battle arena in the game. The "Summoner's Rift" a 5v5 game battle but have many different types of game modes. Nomal game (Team Builder), Normal game (Blind Pick), Normal Game (Draft Pick), Ranked Game (Draft Pick) and Ranked Team (Draft Pick) game.

 Let's Focus on the Ranked Game (Draft Pick), The difference of this tactical game mode in other game modes is Earning League Points (LP) when you win the game (Losing LP when defeated), This LP will determine your RANK TIER in playing LoL. Also BANNING the champion (characters) you think they will use or the commonly used champion, commonly used champion? what are the criteria why that champion is commonly used?. 



Here are the reasons comes in my mind why that champion is always using by the other gamers.
 . 
1. That champion is Over Powered (OP) that can kill in a blink of an eye and so difficult to slay.
 2. That champion is very helpful in the game when it comes to Team Clashes and Crowd Control (CC) 
3. That Champion is Skilled type champion that can poke or exert more damage when it comes to man to man fights.

 So, to be able to win the battle against that powerful champion, SIMPLY!, COUNTER them with another champion that will fit to counter the skills of your enemy champion. In that scenario you're making some tactical game play even if the game didn't start yet. That's effective most of the time. 

Next time I will mention a specific champion and the skills, then I will share tips (suggestions) how to counter that champion with another champion (based on the skills) or counter items. 

First Champion to Mention: How to counter ZED "The Master of Shadows".
