There is counter play. It's called dodging skill shots. Right now, q is the only thing an Ahri can use in lane effectively. W's damage is so tiny and it requires her to be right in your face to hit all three. E is dangerous, yes, but the mana cost is huge. Make an Ahri miss a few charms early, and she'll either be backing early or not using any spells. There's your window in the early game. As for q, it's really only the true damage that's scary. If you can at least dodge the second hit, you should be good.
