I have seen a lot of mages around and a good variety, and would like to know what the community thinks is the most OP and most UP...

Theres not much that's honestly overpowered right now. That's focused on sated junglers.

But there is still stronger and weaker.

In my opinion:

Strong: Viktor Ahri Orianna Azir Annie TwistedFate

Weak: Syndra Xerath Zilean Karthus

Though of course player level can make the difference.

Orianna isn't that "strong" , she's more of a utility mage. The same goes for TF.

Viktor, Ahri, Syndra, are the current OP FTW that noobs can decently play.

Skill-wise, a xerath, leblanc, and karthus are pretty damn OP and the same goes for Azir (Fuck his wall into a wall -.-)

Don't even consider Zilean.

As for annie......she's not that OP . Her kit is bad, and other mages (when fed) just bring more to the team then a situational stun. Sure, she can camp in bush and then AOE stun people to death, but it only really works if she's fed. Like any other mage....

I'm much more scared of a fed Viktor/Ahri than I am of an Annie. The damage.....ugh

Fed victor, I fear terribly... Ahri, I don't see her be terrifying really... just a tiny bit annoying if I push mid too hard. she doesn't even clear creeps efficiently.

Ahri is strong vs melee - noone can catch her. Azir - strong burst and DPS + zoning. Ori still has too high mana costs and her dmg comes from stacking AP, feels less satisfying than many other mages - to start doing real dmg, you need tons of farming and AP. Zilean is still terrible. Xerath and Ziggs will probably be unpopular after the armor nerfs and the return of Talon and Zed mid.

I should add my own list too lol

(From my experience of seeing them from a lv16 point of view)

Stronger: Brand, Annie, Victor, Heimer

Middle of the road: Lissandra, Azir, Ryze, Veigar

Weaker (Or just badly played): Twisted Fate, Ahri

One of these things is not like the others

Over the top Ahri Annie Azir Cassiopeia Fizz Lux Malzahar Orianna Viktor

Strong ->Viable Zyra Xerath TwistedFate Heimerdinger Syndra Talon Zed Anivia Ziggs

Weak->Trash Tier Karthus Veigar Ekko Karma Leblanc Kassadin Zilean

Some are not so weak but will never be viable again because of mobility.

Uhm. Did you just call Ekko trash?

Xotraz le sageAug 8, 20151 votes

I am a big hater of Assassin, zed players who QQ for not being to assassinate by pressing R and all that things. But I must admit Ekko have so much counterplay it's easy to destroy him. So yeah he is between weak and trash for me.

When mobile assassin are not OP they are a bit useless.

Anyway Zed Talon and Ekko are not mage x)

Prospector PeteAug 8, 20151 votes

Meh. Ekko does have a lot of counterplay, but if you play him right, you can destroy everyone.

He did because Ekko is trash

AlldaySkandiAug 8, 20151 votes

lux stronger than ekko and leblanc ?

ElindiirAug 8, 20151 votes

which are least mobile

Ahri OP Ryze UP (but probably intentionally UP until his next rework)

ElindiirAug 8, 20151 votes

Seriously, I have only seen Ahri be played well a few times out of the many that I see... She seems so weak... When I played her, she just didn't have the raw power compared to Morgana, who is considered a support in the meta. You have to stack a LOT of AP to get performance. Also, any good CC is enough to tear her apart, and her own CC feels underpowered for its CD
