• Talon
• Shyvana
• Taliyah
• Kindred

Strong Picks Against Ivern:

• Jarvan IV
• Evelynn
• Udyr
• Karthus
• Warwick

Early Game Strategy:

• Ward river bushes at 1:25 to prevent Ivern from stealing 3 buffs
• Invade early - Ivern is weak in the early game
• Maintain Dragon vision as Ivern excels at securing objectives with Daisy

Mid-Game Tactics:

• Look for picks before teamfights to reduce Ivern's utility impact
• Watch for Ivern's W (Brushmaker) as it indicates his presence
• Focus Ivern first in fights to prevent healing and shielding allies

Power Spike Windows:

• Level 1: Prevent buff steal with proper warding
• Level 6: Daisy unlock increases gank potential
• 11-20 minutes: Two-item spike (Redemption + Ardent Censer)

Counter Tips:

• Counter-jungle to delay level 6 power spike
• Track Redemption cooldown for fights
• Use CC to lock down Ivern's low mobility
• Counter his brush vision with control wards

Note: Ivern's effectiveness peaks in coordinated team play rather than solo encounters. Prioritize disrupting his support capabilities and jungle pathing to minimize his impact.
