Once it misses or is charged in the wrong direction, trade quickly before her disengage returns. - Pressure the wave when her shield is down. Forcing her to choose between shielding poke and protecting the push weakens her lane control. - Start fights from multiple angles so one Q or ult cannot reset the whole engage. Collapse again after she spends her first peel spell. - Punish her when she leaves lane to ward alone. Janna is strongest beside carries, not when caught setting vision by herself. - Hold follow-up engage until her ult is used. Re-engage immediately after the knockback so her team cannot freely reset. ## Where Janna is weak Exploit these in draft and in lane. - Janna is reactive by design, so patient teams can draw out peel before committing the real engage. - She is fragile away from her carries, making vision control risky when she must face-check alone. ## Janna counters: questions ### Who counters Janna in Support?
