Clearly you did not see where I was going. What I meant to say with the original post is that it's the player behind the champion you're facing, not the game's mechanics.

League of Legends is far more than just counterpicking. Of course it gives you an advantage during the laning fase, but mid to late-game this becomes one of the least important factors and skill, positioning, tactics and communication become the dominant factors.

For instance, I, as Alistar, initiate on your team late-game. Will you, as Cho, use Feast on me, as Alistar, because it counters him? I highly doubt that.
