OK so im interested in buying a new champ to refresh my pool a bit... I usually play assassins in mid such as Zed, Yasuo, Ekko, Talon... But i have played my fair share of mages in mid too Azir is one that comes to head. Anyways... Im debating between Cassiopeia, Ziggs and Orianna and have looked up some statistics on them and they are all prty much in the same kind of spot except Ziggs isnt picked that much in pro play. Anyways Im not looking for just the straight up overpowerdness of the champ i also want it to be fun. So suggestions are welcome, wich one do u reccomend? (Im also cosnsidering Ahri but not as much) Ty!

Given your liking for higher damage/high input characters, you'd probably like Cassiopeia the most. Ziggs has some good artillery and Orianna brings some sweet zoning to the table, but all in all I'd say Cass is the one for you.

Ya, I kiinda thought so myself. I was actually considering her before the other 2 sooo... Idk.

I've started playing cass recently and I'll say that she is definitely a good pick but I've found that my damage is usually lower compared to others every if I am ahead/fed. I don't know why this is happening. It may be because I haven't player her enough yet or it can be due to my high ping but its something I just wanted to tell you.

I'd say go for orianna personally. She is a solid pick with safe laning phase/good scaling lategame/aoe/cc and utility but the ultimate choice is yours. Both ori and cass are pretty good picks.

These 3 champs have different strenghts so you should consider what strenghts fit your play style better.

Cass: has great zoning potential and short cd bursts. Generally focuses more on DoTs and consistent burst. Generally focuses more on single target damage more than anything. She isn't as team dependant as the other 2 but is generally very difficult to master and play correctly.

Orianna: great utility and zoning potential. She is more focused on team play to get the best results out of her. Has good aoe damage and mainly focuses on multiple targets rather than single. Relies on a good team to get the best results out of her abilities, take a fair amount of effort to play her correctly.

Ziggs: best zoner out of all these champs, has great poke damage and great aoe damage. Can focus on either single or multiple targets, he's a poker so poke will be your number one priority before going all in. Can be team reliant but can also carry games by himself with enough experience and gold, definitely not that difficult of a champion to pick up compared to the other 2.

In terms of damage scaling it goes like this: Cassiopeia Ziggs Orianna

Imo orianna has to be the funnest champion to play because of the great utility her ball gives and the plays you can pull off :)
