Playing against Ashe
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Ashe has no mobility — assassins and direct engages are very effective against her.
Her R stuns longer at range: dodge it if possible, or stay close to her to reduce the stun duration.
If you're at her minimum range, her W can't hit you (cone shape) — stick to her in fights.
Buy Tenacity to reduce the duration of her R stun and the permanent slow from her autos.
