Here's the first in the Countering series, which replaces both the countering section in the Don't Feeds as well as the old Champion Minis. I hope I've structured this in such a way that you can quickly and easily get the info you need at champion select.

For what it's worth, there are several clips from a game w/ TiensoNoAkuma, and I want to be pretty clear about this so it's not taken the wrong way. Tienso one of the very best Katarina players, and that is exactly why I wanted to show him -- if he's getting countered, it means there's a real counter going on, not that he's a weak Kat player. Watch each of these clips -- in many of them, he is countered simply by opponents having barely enough survivability that he can't domino out (which is one of the things I mention in the video). However, even in a couple cases where he was killed, the teamfight still went in his team's favor, in part because of his contribution.
I wish I could have used more contextual footage (i.e. less montage, more video related to what's being said) but there were only a limited number of top tier plays I was able to watch while working on this. Getting more would have unfortunately meant taking longer to produce this.
