How to play it

Watch AP Alistar
His damage can be surprising if he goes AP: but he still has to close to melee range to use any of it.
Zone with boxes
Since he has to get in close, just play around your boxes: they punish him for walking up and let you fight on your terms.
Rated Easy
Both authors call this Easy: respect nothing but his need to close the distance.
Never brawl him in melee range on his terms: his whole kit needs proximity, so fight through your boxes instead.
