The key to the fact that even though MR counters LB hard, it's also really hard to save up for that MR, particularlly if you cannot farm for it if she denies you the ability to last hit. Once she gets a couple of kills on you, it's really hard to get back into the game, since if you build toward a Bashee's you'll deal no damage for the rest of the laning phase. Doing so hinders your mid-game, and thus your effectiveness when Teamfights start dwindles down to a liability.
