Playing against Kalista
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
1
Kalista depends on her bound support — if the support is eliminated, she loses her R and a lot of utility.
2
Slows are devastating against Kalista: her passive dash scales with movement speed. Slow = tiny hops.
3
Burst champions are effective: if she can't auto to dash, she's very vulnerable.
4
Grievous Wounds isn't as important as against other ADCs — focus on CC and burst instead.
