#How to counter non-lushenable speed ADs?

A lot of defs I see have speed leads but they're not really lushenable for one reason or another.
How do you usually beat those?

For example, see the following AD, there's no way a Lushen could kill the Karnal and then it also depends if the Praha is tanky / -dmg from wind, it's just too unreliable to try to Lushen this.

I'm trying to figure a team that could be reliable & fast against these speed ADs but:

  • I don't have a Leah (for Leah-based cleave)
  • I don't have a Christina (for Leo teams)

I have Psama & Vanessa, Jamire & Chiwu and Leo.

Right now my AO presets:

  • Fat lushen
  • Tiana Galleon Zaiross Alicia
  • Bruiser comp (Xing Zhe, Juno, Feng Yan, Abellio)
  • Leo comp (Leo, Feng Yan, Tesarion, Abellio)

I am building a double sniper AO with a speed lead but is there any other team that is more suitable for handling these?

this is super lushenable. you're not supposed to kill the karnal with lushen, that's what the +1 lead is for (for example, psama)

#

yes it's possible for praha and moore to survive, if the ad has built them as dedicated tanks. but then it just comes down to rune quality

#

you can also try to tiana this but only if you have a psama cp

#

leah and leo christina do beat this too, i know you said you don't have them

#

but you have to understand that you're not expected to be able to beat the majority of ADs you see

#

it's very normal to have to skip literally 9 defs out of every list of 10

#

arena is not easy. it's very dependent on both specific monsters as well as rune quality

#

if you have neither there's nothing you can do and that's by design

#

btw just get rid of those bruiser/leo comps on your ao list
