Guide & Strategy Breakdown

Alistar's main trade pattern in lane is incredibly hard to interact with. During the cast of W an autoattack can be buffered. The WQ combo can be used to lock an enemy into place, but this should only be done if you can win an extended trade or are setting up a gank for your jungler, as Alistar's damage is very frontloaded. Of course if an enemy gets to close to your turret you can flash Q them and then W them into your turret range, this can easily cheese lvl 2 kills against an unsuspecting opponent.
