How to counter Corki: in Wild Rift

How do you counter Draven Wild Rift?

Laning: Outsmart the Flyboy

  • Choose Your Champion Wisely: Xerath's range keeps him safely out of Corki's blast zone, while assassins like Fizz or Zed can pounce the moment his Valkyrie (W) escape is down.
  • Manipulate the Wave: Freeze it near your tower or push it hard – either way, make him choose between precious farm and harassing you with his Q (Phosphorus Bomb) and those blasted rockets.
  • Watch for the Package: When Corki snags his Package, a fight's brewing. Ping his disappearance and warn your teammates of his explosive delivery plans!

Teamfights:  Contain the Chaos

Force the Fight: Corki excels at whittling you down from afar. Burst him down with a decisive engage before his poke takes its toll.

Dodge the Dive: That Valkyrie dash is predictable. Have your team ready with knock-ups or displacements to interrupt his flight and set him up for a brutal counter-attack.

Deny the Detonation: See that oversized Package? If Corki's hauling it around, delay the fight until it fizzles out, or bait him into wasting it for defense.

Exploiting Corki's Weaknesses

Immobility is Key: Without Valkyrie, Corki's a lumbering target begging for a gank. Capitalize on those overextensions!

Mana Hungry: His explosive antics have a hefty price tag. Force him to spam abilities early, and he'll struggle to keep the pressure up.

Roam vs. Farm: If he's constantly leaving lane, Corki's farm will suffer. Make him pay by pressuring his tower and stealing his precious gold.

Counter-Building Corki's Bombardment

  • Mix Your Defenses: That tricky pilot deals both physical and magic damage, so a healthy mix of armor and magic resist is essential.
  • Stay Nimble: Boots of Swiftness or items that boost your movement speed will make dodging those rockets a breeze.
  • Early Magic Resist: Consider Spectre's Cowl to blunt Corki's early burst, especially if he gets a lucky Package roam.

Remember: Corki thrives on poking you down and soaring around fights on his own terms. Dictate the pace, exploit his cooldown windows, and send this reckless pilot spiraling out of control!
