Who this champion beats in lane, and who beats it.Who counters Alistar and who Alistar beats
Alistar is one of the toughest bodies in the game, but the package has clear holes. He has no ranged poke and no real escape, so before he gets his hands on you he does nothing, and his Headbutt into Pulverize combo asks for close range and good timing to land. That makes him vulnerable to anyone who can hook or root him from outside his reach, out range his melee engage, or simply pick off the carry he is trying to protect before he can lock anyone down. He also burns through mana fast and has no way to answer poke from distance. To beat Alistar, stay outside his arms, punish him while he walks up, and respect that his ultimate makes him almost impossible to kill once he commits, so the goal is to neutralize his engage rather than trade blows with the wall itself. When you pick him, you are betting you can close the gap, so respect ranged threats and longer engage tools that get to act first.
