Lulu, 
Thresh, 
Blitzcrank: Lulu wins 52.9% of the lane against it. Any of these is a safe counter pick. Swain performs consistently across game lengths, so there is no single window to wait for, win lane on fundamentals. Playing the matchup itself: Swain's passive is very potent if you are immobilized. Make sure to be extra careful around enemies who have immobilizing effects. High mobility counters all of Swain's basic abilities: Death's Hand does more damage the closer he is, Vision of Empire has a very long delay and Nevermove must start returning back to him to be dangerous. Buying an item with Grievous Wounds will make Swain much easier to kill during his Demonic Ascension. Pick a counter from the list above, respect Swain's power spikes, and track its cooldowns so you only commit to trades when its key abilities are down. Counter data updates automatically every patch.
