Countering Kai'Sa

Laning Phase:

  • Avoid 1v1 fights; her isolated Q deals maximum damage
  • Fight near minions to reduce Q damage
  • Keep trades short to prevent Passive activation
  • Watch for W snipes when recalling - delay shopping until safely at base

Counter Strategy:

  • Apply crowd control (CC) early in fights
  • Track her Ultimate (R) for repositioning attempts
  • Focus her Support first in team fights
  • Fight in minion waves to reduce Q effectiveness

Power Spikes:

  • Q Evolution: Significant damage increase
  • Multiple Evolutions: Major power spike
  • Level 6: Global presence with R

Strong Picks vs Kai'Sa:

  1. Nilah
  2. Kog'Maw
  3. Swain
  4. Jinx
  5. Vayne

Weak Picks vs Kai'Sa:

  1. Aphelios
  2. Tristana
  3. Miss Fortune
  4. Draven
  5. Zeri

Tips:

  • Maintain vision control to prevent surprise engages
  • Coordinate CC with teammates
  • Build defensive items early if struggling
  • Stay grouped to prevent isolated picks
  • Watch for W+R combination when low health

Remember: Kai'Sa excels in extended fights and isolated targets. Fight in groups and keep engagements short for best results.
