Playing against Ashe

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Ashe has no mobility — assassins and direct engages are very effective against her.

2

Her R stuns longer at range: dodge it if possible, or stay close to her to reduce the stun duration.

3

If you're at her minimum range, her W can't hit you (cone shape) — stick to her in fights.

4

Buy Tenacity to reduce the duration of her R stun and the permanent slow from her autos.
