Assassin vs Summoner

[Anjiru]

Why is it so damn impossible to beat a summoner? Literally any other class I can put up a decent fight but once it pairs me to a summoner its literally game over. I can't even get them past 60% half the time on either of the rounds. 

 

The amount of time the cat can be on top of me is ridiculous. If I spend time to kill the cat, the summoner just rapes me down, if I focus the summoner the cat perma holds me in place. Even though I have a multitude of abilities to escape the cat, the AoE from the summoner just knocks me out of stealth and the cycle continues until I lose the duel. 

 

It's extremely frustrating when 90% of the losses I have as an assassin are solely because of a particular class that I have no chance against. I have tried a bunch of different tactics and not even once have I gotten close to even winning a single round. Am I doing something wrong, or am I just doomed to a fate of forfeit to summoners wrath?

Vile's guide, all props to him.

 

All of his video's are long, but worth watching. It'll detail what skills you should take, what skills of your opponent to avoid, tips and tricks, and then some in game examples so you can see what he's talking about.

I'll have to take a look at that, thanks for the referral.
