He's melee. He does his best when he can flank his target and push him towards the carry. Which as someone who knows Alistar well but never plays him i'll be preventing that as best I can. My favorite way is playing Karma. You'll never have enough and movement speed to heal and initate and i'll lock you down with snare when you head butt me. Another way is playing Morgana where you'll just be a liability cause I'll snare you because you can't juke my spells and I can cancel all CC with my spell shield.

It's more safer to get Blitzcrank or Thresh and even Leona to grab a target and displace them with Leona not displacing but having heavy CC that at level six becomes really safe and easy to use.
