Hello Gangplank main here, I laugh at your funny statement, and say Gangplank does really well. And no I don't build critplank I go the usual fighter build on him, And have been able to dual champions like Fiora and Jax with some ease.

He isn't in the greatest spot no, but thankfully Riot is giving him some love soon.

fiora is trash

She may be trash, but she is still THE 1v1 champ of the league.

Irelia Malzahar RivenJax Darius Tryndamere You sure?

And Poppy is _the _ 1v2 but it's secretly a 1v1 champion!

And then once she gets full build, she evolves into a 1v4 champion!

Irelia Malzahar RivenJax You sure?

Fiora would rip Riven and probably Irelia's heads off late game to be honest (actually, she beats up on Riven in the early and mid game as well, lol). Malzahar too if she has a Mercurial Scimitar. Jax does directly counter Fiora, however. If she can't abuse his weak early game there's not much she can do.

edit: I see you added Darius and Tryndamere.

Tryndamere probably beats her late game, and early game it's a skill match up. Few duelists late-game can fight Tryndamere.

Darius? Early game he can beat her. Late game, probably not. Even in the early game Fiora can beat Darius.

Darius W fucks up hard fiora. He can also buy randuins thornmail , making her pretty useless in a 1v1. Mercurial scimitar? She will still take the damage. Malzahar can also zhonyas her ult. Riven vs Fiora is a skill matchup, where riven is wayyy more safer

She can parry the W, and since most of Darius' burst without his ult is in it that would fuck him up hard.

Randuins are thornmail are countered by lifesteal, and Fiora typically buys RH and BT. Darius doesn't have the damage or durability to fight Fiora in the late game.

Okay, so? Malzahar will still take more damage than Fiora will, especially if she's bought some defense along with her offense, like a spirit visage. She frankly probably doesn't need her ult to kill Malzahar.

Fiora is one of Riven's biggest counters that isn't Renekton or Garen. Fiora outdamages Riven early and scales better into late game as a duelist.

Thornmail is not countered by lifesteal, not in the slightest.

It's countered by magic resist and armor pen.

You forgot the king of 1v1's, MasterYi.

But yes, i'm sure, she's titled _The Grand Duelist _ for a reason.

That must be why she consistently has among the highest win rates in the entire game.

Being bad in pro play doesn't equate to being bad in Solo Q.

Reminds me of the "Fiora Effect" video I've seen before.

It's true. Some champs bad in pro play are great at stomping Solo Q.

IcyPepper1 votes

Imagine Dyrus playing Fiora tho...

Guess there's a reason he doesn't (get to) play assassins. Poor guy.

Well, other than Elise. Or Gangplank. Or Mordekaiser. or Yorick (after laning, atleast).

Vistha Kai5 votes

Elise? Is that the one throwing axes?

no. i think that's Evelynn

Draven : it's me! Olaf : no, me!

Silents4292 votes

Mordekaiser isn't any less useless then most mages, And turning a fight from a 5v5 to 4v6 is insane.

Yorick being able to do a similar thing with his own ADC is also pretty strong, along with his wave clear for good split pushing.

Narasimha2 votes

Mordekaiser isn't any less useless then most mages

Except in 95% of all situations, he is. He can't siege without putting himself at risk. He can't burst unless the target is already low. And because he's melee, he has to always be in the middle of things. So either he builds full glass cannon and hopes to kill something before he dies, or he builds bruiser and trades damage for survivability.

Rinky Dinky1 votes

Sounds like you just either A: have no idea how to play mordekaiser, or B: Hate him just because "muh meta"

There is a reason mordekaiser usually has a 53%+ winrate

Vistha Kai2 votes

The reason being that only dedicated people play him, so people who play him can utilize his kit however terrible it wouldn't be.

Rinky Dinky1 votes

I could say the same for elise, yet her winrate is the lowest in the game.

Vistha Kai3 votes

Let's face it. Elise is an overnerfed piece of garbage that is denied to be decent at anything.

Morde can at least farm and ignore poke.

Silents4291 votes

Eh? I don't think you have played against a decent Mordekaiser he can burst, His E is devastating.

And you build cooldown reduction and spell vamp, you don't need a bunch of tanky items because you can easily keep your passive up in the middle of team fights.

Rinky Dinky1 votes

Calling Mordekaiser weak lol

Calling yorick weak lol

The lcs players made all those weak champs "playable" for this season Ryze Gragas Sejuani Hecarim Evelynn Urgot Warwick Sivir , even ad topFizz

Playing Hecarim top was NOT a good pick and not allowed (unless u wanted to be insulted by your team) until the lcs players play him and say he is op, then now EVERYONE play Hecarim with summoner 14 summoner 12 even if they die due to lack of summoner 4 They don't give a fck! they just copy the lcs players because they think they will win that way...

Now that a lcs player played Ryze after his rework ,his pick/ban rate increased and all the Riven Irelia mains play Ryze now.

Focus Teemo1 votes

Disclamier: Sej is being used an example, and this does NOT represent my opinion on her current state of balance.

People like you DON'T READ PATCH NOTES!

Trash tier exists. The only reason champs like Urgot end up seeing competitive play is because they just got buffs recently ( <3 CertainlyT )

Nasus isn't bad, lol.

Everyone else there has some issues, but Nasus' only real problem is that if the game starts to lose five to ten minutes in there is basically nothing you can do.

Only Play Darius1 votes

Trust me I know, I main Nasus lol.

He is good in the right hands, but his weaknesses outweigh his strengths. In SoloQ people don't listen to your MIA's and fight 4v5's in enemy jg and feed your lane opponent, In competitive play he gets kited so hard in team fights that he can never get a single Q off.

Haha its cute you think that OP... Meteos has tried to make Elise work over the past few months, picked her in the LCS, and it failed every time. Pros don't pick champions because they like them, they pick what they can win with!

https://twitter.com/meteoslol/status/600884745216491520

Please note: TSM TheOddOne also comments further down why no one plays Elise currently, whether you like her or not.

In this case Meteos for example STOPPED picking Elise a champion he likes, because she's no longer good enough to win games in the pro scene.

I mean do you honestly believe Pros all like the same 20-40 champions? You think EVERY jungler for example just LOVES Lee Sin? NO they learned to play him because he was the strongest competitive pick for years!
