Yall need to learn counterplay, not counter picks.
It’s never been more clear to me how much of the community is COMPLETELY LOST when it comes to counterplay. Dino being the most recent tool used to expose bad players. If you’ve been getting rolled by Dino this season don’t feel bad. He is strong. But also he’s a trap character that will take advantage of bad players not realizing they’re completely falling into a lull and losing.
So here’s the thing, how do you counter Dino?
A. Headshot him
B. Bait out his cooldowns
C. Ignore him
The answer is all of the above obviously, but in what order? First to counter Dino you HAVE to force him to make a choice between waffle stomping your tanks and protecting his own team. He only has 1 grab, which is tied to his only mobility, forcing him to burn this ability is crucial. It needs to be known that Dino really does not do well in high pace fights. He’s clunky and slow, if you force him to retarget multiple times he loses a lot of value. The key is to keep him away from the fight, and more importantly your tanks/brawlers, as much as possible.
This is only the start to theorycrafting on Dino counterplay but the overarching message is just swapping to Punisher isn’t enough a LOT of the time. Especially against organized teams.
