OP Champions

supergoodstory·Aug 5, 2017·2 votes·248 views

So there was a video released within the last week from Riot talking about the 5 pillars they base champions on... I have to say the Fairness one needs to be checked badly.... They buff champions that don't need to be buffed n nurf champions that don't need to be nurfed.

One of these is way to op... another or and ... They could use a nurf. I expect some people to say "they aren't strong unless they're fed or you know how to play against them." NO DUH but if u get on a team n end up getting a teammate(s) that ends up giving 5 kills off the bat the game is over pretty quick with some of the champs...

What excactly about these champions is unfair?

Garen is immobile and melee

1 interrupt and all MF damage is gone

Corki... Well yes, but to a certain extend.

Urgot is all reliant on his easy to dodge Q and even is immobile WITH A SELFSLOW

Boi he has a movement speed boost as well as a slow cleanse on his Q and Garens usually build a Dead Man's Plate so that's that counterplay out the window.

Out the window? Do you forget about hard CC like a Zac pull, every knock up and all CC that doesn't get reduced by tenacity?

Here's a fact. If a champion has no counterplay and is too strong, they'll get picked up in lcs

Sure garen does a lot of damage, but all you have to do is just stop him. It is really not that hard

I'm pretty sure that's a counter to EVERY champion.

He get's passive armor and magic resistance, not counting any armor or magic resist gained from runes, masteries and items, plus a 6 second long 30% damage reduction PLUS a tenacity boost on a 11 second cooldown with 45% Cooldown Reduction. That's 5 seconds of time you can actually wound him. With a Spirit Visage and a Warmog's Armor, Garen only has to leave combat for 5 seconds and he's already at full health. I'd say it's pretty hard to stop a Garen.

Well, hard CC'ing the enemy garen to stop him diving the backline is a lot easier than trying to get to the enemy backline and CC targets.

It really isn't though. The reason people stop playing garen once they climb higher is that players get smarter and know what to do in situations. Focus and CC him down and he is useless. In bronze, people just don't know how they deal with champs like this.

Also why Yi and Yasuo are god tier bronze carry champions. People just don't know how to play against them.

You're bronze 1, basically very low in terms of player skill. While you may know what to do in certain situations (like not 1v1 these champions), they always manage to get fed off some other stupid teammate thinking they can fight 1v1. That's how league is.

Some champions are just god tier bronze champions like Yasuo, Yi and garen, but once you climb and you and your teammates start knowing and playing better, you will realize not having a gap closer/dash on a melee champion is a HUGE disadvantage.

But sure, now you're in the heart of low elo (and I know I'm still only gold), so if you feel like he is so unfair, pick him up yourself

stopping garen doesn't happen by one player. If your teammates don't know what they're doing, he can just get fed off them.
