Swain and Nocturne

I know when people think of op champs they generally dont think of these but my friend has been playing swain for 1 week and hes gotten 5 pentas. I will admit before level 6 kinda weak but after you dont stand a chance, his ult and his scalings are ridiculous. Nocturne has EVERYTHING in his kit: Taunt, spell shield, dumb broken ult, and a q that speeds him up and has a ridiculous scaling. I've seen every possible thing and there is only ONE item that can counter a little which is zhonyas (same thing with rengar ult) so riot is basically forcing adc's to build zhonyas when there is a rengar or nocturne on the other team. You CANNOT whatsoever kite nocturne his spell shield will block any cc or snare or whatever you have, his taunt will let him rek you and you cant attack, and his q speeds him up to get to you and does a ton of dmg, not mentioning his ult cd and him reking anyone who doesnt have a zhonyas or isnt EXTREMELY TANKY.

sincerely, a person who is becoming sad with this game

Nocturne Is a champion meant to latch on and not let go, you aren't supposed to be able to kite him, and only the best Kalista Vayne players and maybe critical strike Ashe players can kite him. And he does have a ton of sustained damage after you are feared and under the effect of duskbringer. His ult CD is VERY LONG early on, the first 3 items I build are item 1412 item 3812 item 3142 (30% CDR) But unless you buy 3 item 3133 s before going on to those items you wont have a short CD before mid game, And Mid Game is Nocturne 's Game His ganks with ult and without ult Pre 6 on a pushed lane are very good, and he sustains in the new jungle relatively well (hes not item 1039 Fiddlesticks but he does well) His ulti does not work on a group of enemies, Hes very single-target like Akali , and he does not have great initiation by himself as his primary role is assassin and he will have to choose between The Immense Sustained Damage and Immense Survivability. item 3812 Doesn't give immense survivability, but it does help and this plus a tanky item is pretty dam strong. If hes locking you down I'm mid game, save ur mobility for his fear and outplay him, you wont escape

Noc does not have a taunt, actually.

The real counterplay is this thing called buying a defensive item one one damned time.
