I agree with Lazy. There's much more at stake than My Skill Counters Your Skill, and certainly a hell of a lot more than My Ult Counters Your Ult. For example, if their top lane has someone with very good harass, you counter with someone who has great sustain. If their AD carry can't last hit at a distance, pick someone who can easily zone them. If they have good AOE ults for teamfights, counter with superior pokes so they can't safely initiate.
