Vladimir	Easy	218	57%	+173	+374	This is a tough lane early, but it becomes very difficult for him after you get Lost Chapter. The only way he can kill you is by running you down when you are overextended without summoner spells or your ultimate. Your ultimate makes him useless for the entire game unless he builds Quicksilver Sash.

Zed	Even	192	51%	-405	-583	Malzahar is a traditional counter to Zed because you can lock him down and kill him. However, with modern itemization, he can be a major threat.

Orianna	Not Favored	187	50%	-187	-291	It's hard to get priority against her due to her numerous waveclear spells, but you are very good at keeping her in lane. You can bait her Qs with good movement. Be aware of her gank setup.

Viktor	Hard	185	45%	-238	-321	Try to avoid taking too much damage early, as he is very strong. Match his push as well as you can. Position your voidlings so he has to choose between clearing them or poking you. If he wastes his E, you have a window to push. Be careful of his ultimate, as it cancels yours.
