Tips to face Swain

The following champions are the most recommended against Swain.

Lee Sin

This champion is the most recommended jungle, so he can face Swain without any problems. Lee has no excellent skills to face Swain, such as W and R. Lee Sin’s W skill can help him to avoid Swain’s Q or W skills. Lee’s ultimate can’t take Swain away, so he can’t keep regenerating his life.

Olaf

This champion has a great passive that can destroy Swain without problems, also has a great ultimate that is tireless against Swain. Olaf’s passive increases his attack speed with every % of his life that he lacks. Olaf’s W ability also helps to regenerate his life, being a good point to destroy Swain.

Anivia

Swain against Anivia’s abilities will never be able to get close, since if he tries it is either the catch with his Q or he stops with his W. Also Anivia’s ultimate help Swain loses life and is slower than before, since if he is arrested, he cannot heal himself with his ultimate.

Tristana

This is the ADC champion I most recommend against Swain, as she can attack from a good position and defend herself with her W or R. Tristana’s W ability helps her avoid skills that she wants to throw Swain. Also Tristana’s ultimate prevents him from approaching as it is a cannonball that propels him back.

Alistar

This champion can help give you a great peel when it comes to an enemy Swain. Ready can take Swain out with his W or stop him with his Q, to prevent him from healing with his ultimate. These skills can help keep Swain in one area so that the allies of Record what they end up in a good position.
