One of these champions is not usually played in this lane — treat the verdict as a rough guide.
How to play it
- Press early
Malphite is stronger in the first levels — shove and deny farm.
- Don't chase
Katarina escapes faster than you — take farm and towers instead of running.
- Magic resistance
Katarina deals magic damage — Banshee's Veil as your 2nd or 3rd item.
- Full combo or nothing
Katarina is squishy — wait for every ability, go in once. No half-combo trades.
When you are in danger
- Full HP or back off
Katarina's burst kills from half HP. No trades under 60%, and buy Banshee's Veil early.
