I feel like Illaoi is the only real Juggernaut..

The other juggernauts just don't really seem to do the job. Illaoi can 1v5 and get a penta going down. The others are more likey to get kited to death in a 1v1.

Am I wrong? I feel like those juggernauts need to get looked at again.

I think Nasus is everything a juggernaut should be. Illaoi and Darius are close to ideal too.

Idk. I think Yorick is a pretty good juggernaut.

I feel like Illaoi is one of the only real juggernauts because she actually can get kited. Meanwhile I play Gnar into Darius, get hooked because my aa range < his hook range and if I jump away he catches up due to his 2 heavy slows... so I die lol.

Or Gnar jumps after the slow duration and kits from a far while his E is on cooldown.

Problem is that his jump, without getting the double jump, doesnt even have 500 range so after jumping he is either still slowed by Darius E or will get hit by his W while jumping which slows by 90% for 1 second and doesnt decay (why). So Darius easily catches up and proceeds to dunk..

That's why I said after he's slowed, so Darius can't catch up and the slow wears off.

And if there is a minion for him to double jump too then he has a great escape.

Well Ill die before I can try to jump away after waiting like 2.5s for his slows to end lol. It might also have something to do with Darius being broken and Gnar being kind of bad tho.

The slow lasts one second.

E slows by a lot as well tho. Thats why I dont like Darius, he is a high af damage threat but his CC also kills you and makes it hard to kite him in a 1v1 if youre not like Ezreal with ibg.

Still 1 second and only for 40%.

Gnar has everything he needs to keep out of Darius's reach and kite him.

Penns1 votes

His E lasts for 1s and then he can chain his 1s 90% slow on W as well. My matchups against Darius went like this every time since without rushing Frozen Mallet youre not kiting him but if you do rush it, youre too squishy as Mini Gnar. Then I just stopped playing Gnar cause he sux in soloq lol.

Why would frozen mallet make you too squishy on Minignar? It gives 650 HP.

Because no armor and shitty base stats in Mini form. Just looking at base stats, Darius is more tanky at level 9 than Mini Gnar at 13 which isnt a bad thing balance-wise but.. you know.

I like Garen a lot as a juggernaut.

If Illaoi gets a penta, the enemy team did something wrong or her team did it amazingly well.

Illaoi can't 1v5 without a setup and there are better champions in a wombo combo teams that not only have AOE, but also CC. Good players just walk away from her ult.

Illaoi is useless late game. She has a weak early game too her only strength is when she hits 6, then she has a decent mid game.

But even then all you have to do is walk away from her and she's useless for the entire game.

darius is the golden standard of juggernaut

I would not look at Illaoi as an example of a healthy champion. Yes, it's insanely easy to get a pentakill with Illaoi but that's not a good thing. She's one of the most toxic champs in the game.
