I totally agree on this. Picking a comfort pick against a champion that actually counters you is much better than counter picking with having 0 clue on how to play the champion lolCounter picking someone can be detrimental and can often lead to snowballing them so bad that you put them out of the game for good. You see this a lot with champions like Xerath mid who can really wreck a team 1v5 but not if they have to lane vs a good fizz or zed player early game.
However, counterpicking someone just for the sake of champion advantage when you have no experience on the champion is awful and can have quite the opposite effect.
For example, Morgana can be seen as a counter to pyke in some ways. But its a counter with a very clear weakness towards pyke as well. Morganas spell shield has a 20+ second cooldown while pykes q is half that. Experienced pyke players will actually find a morgana lane to be very easy if the morgana is inexperienced.
As a rule of thumb especially in low elo, a counterpick isnt really a counterpick if you never play the champion. Just stick to what you know, even if you are disadvantaged slightly.

Agree! Game is more fun if you're learning new thingsInstead invest in learning the champs who counter your mains. That way when you get counter picked before you choose you can comfortably flex into a counterpick. I main Warwick who gets hard countered by jax and trundle among others, so I learned how to play malphite who stomps both of them.
Just pick the Champ you are best in low elo, counterpicking happens in high elo when they have experience with that champion.Counter picking someone can be detrimental and can often lead to snowballing them so bad that you put them out of the game for good.
