How to counter Alistar

Alistar is a tank engage support who knocks up with his Q, repositions with his W, stuns with his E, and becomes nearly unkillable with his ultimate. His impact depends on landing his engage combo, so he struggles against champions that disengage him, block his crowd control, or endure his initiation.

  • Janna — Her disengage knocks Alistar off his combo and out-ranges him, undoing his initiation.
