Her lane loses pressure when she cannot safely enter or escape. - Track nearby enemy pressure whenever she walks forward without wave advantage. Lissandra's crowd control turns small positioning errors into guaranteed kills. - Keep carries outside her E arrival range around objectives. Punish the starting point if she commits in and cannot retreat. - Save a cleanse, shield, or interrupt for her R engage rather than spending it on poke. Denying the first lock-down breaks her team's follow-up. - Spread before decisive fights so one E into R cannot catch multiple carries. Collapse only after she uses R on herself or a low-value target. ## Where Lissandra is weak Exploit these in draft and in lane. - Lissandra trades damage for reliable lockdown, so she struggles to carry fights without allied follow-up. - Lissandra must enter threat range to start fights, making her predictable when flanks are denied. ## Lissandra counters: questions ### Who counters Lissandra in Mid?
