Getting counter picked by Rumble is very vexing.

Rumble isn't an OP champion but one whose kit makes unfun to lane against. Name me a champion that is more annoying to lane against.

I'd honestly put Orianna a bit behind rumble. If she counter picks you, at least you can somewhat farm or dodge her projectile moving ball. Her shield is unfun though.

You're mis-using the term of unfun. Her shield hardly impacts your gameplay at all.

Anti-fun applies to mechanics that remove player agency; making you unable to do anything, imagine a 3 second fear or other hard cc.

I just can't see how Orianna's shield qualifies as "anti-fun"

Lee sin mobility doesn't remove player agency but it's still considered unfun to play against.

Apples and oranges buddy. That is a completely different gameplay mechanic.

Lee sin does have things in his Kit that remove agency, such as R the enemy to make them travel in a straight line while stunned so he can land Q->Q combo without them dodging.

The mobility is frustrating because it takes away the safety of other characters' mobility (and flash) because it is so much more than theirs. Ward hopping is a big part of that.

Maybe I used too tight of a definition for unfun, but yours is still too loose.

Exactly, Rumble doesn't qualify for the status of unfun.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but his Q has 6 secs cd and is up 3 secs (3 secs downtime). A good Rumble will stay in the 50-99 zone. He's really annoying since he can just spam Q as soon as it's up cd, push you into tower then stay at max range and keep Q'ing you while you're getting the ranged creeps.

This is a good point, I wish OP would present his arguments like this.

Any stacking champion. Just knowing that whatever I do in lane phase, they will almost always outscale me, even if they are 0/4/0.

Just top laners fiora, teemo (exactly what you described but cranked up to eleven), renek and darius. Ironically most of rumbles most successful counters though arent top laners.

If you are having trouble with Rumble in lane, you should work on your playstyle. Whining about how unfun it is to get beat by his kit won't help you learn how to beat it.

Here are some tips:

Use your minions to block the harpoons
watch his heat, when he's in the yellow that's the danger zone and you should stay farther away from him
fight him when he's in the grey or in the red as then he lacks a lot of his power.
fight him when his abilities are on cooldown, don't let him harass you for free.
Buy early MR and extra sustain via potions or items.

As I said, he's not OP, he's not fun to play against. Fun itself is subjective so don't force your version of fun on me. I think old nidalee was fine, but the entire community bitched about how her spears were "unfun". I can give the same tip for old AP nidalee and still have people complain about how broken she is.

Use minion to block her spear
Ward jungle near walls so she can't sneak a spear behind it
Sidestep her skillshot
Buy MR specifically banshees
Fight her while her ability are on cooldown

See how stupid I sound. Just because there's way to play against something doesn't make it "fun"

Things are usually less fun when they lack counterplay. I was pointing out the difference between unfun with counterplay and without.

Fair enough, a lot of people hate blitzcrank but he is technically balanced. But if it's your subjective opinion then you ought not imply that he is the most unfun champion in the game and expect people to not try to prove you wrong.

See how stupid I sound.

Imitating me to imply that I am stupid was unnecessary and rude. I never made any such insult to you, I don't see why you would react in such a manner.
