With the year coming to an end, Who do you think was the most Overloaded Champion released by Riot this year?

No fun to playing against with the Horrible kits and overpowered abilities these champions have, the designer needs to be fired for 2020

In my personal Opinion is Aphelios, whose idea was that?

Still say yasuo/akali are the most overloaded champions in the game.

Akali is for sure the most overloaded BUT out of the choices you gave I voted for Sylas.

Sylas is basically going to be on that Azir/Kallista level, where he is either completely must play or ban or will be complete dog shit for 99% of the player base. He has basically everything you want in a 1 v 9 champ, Heals/Shield, Aoe Dmg, Engage, Mobility and that's before you factor in his R.

He is a cool champ though, I'm not hating on anyone who enjoys playing him and honestly I like having good Sylas's on my team but they are unicorns. Awesome design overall but because he has so much he basically is going to always be at a borderline unplayable status with his Ratios imo

Sylas, Just look at his change-list. Outside of buffs just after release he's basically only been nerfed B/c SHOCKER the ability to steal ult's is Un-bloody-balancable.

Am i the only one that thinks aphelios doesn't really have an overloaded kit? Sure, 5 wepons and 5 Qs, but in the ende, they are all different means to the same end, it's all about dealing damage, mostly through AA dps. Only realy burst is his ult, and only utillity is his slow cannon with a short root on Q. Everything else revolves around AA dps with not aditional utillity, cc or mobillity, not even %hp or truedamage, so i honestly don't think he is any more overloaded than jinx who offers very similar things: high closeranged dps or high ranged aoe dps, a high ranged skillshot for poke, some CC, next to no mobillity and an ult with hgih aoe damage potential. If he's strong, it's because the numbers are to high, which is overtuned, not because he offers to many differnt tools, which would be overloaded.

Now, who i really miss on that list is Akali, who is certainly more overloaded than quiana, and most of all Kai'sa. Mixed damage, %hp damage, poke, burst, tankshredding dps, a powerfull speedboost+invis on low cd, extra survivabillity from her ult shield and a high ranged dash for easy target acces(provided your team lands some CC). Oh, and the option to build basically any item she wants casue she scales well every off-stat. The only thing she lacks is a high AA range for save teamfights, though skilled players can compensate that with her ult and invis.

Qiyana isn’t really that good outside of her ult (which is too large on walls, I admit)

She’s just Talon with a teamfight button.

Yasuo is more overloaded than her, and everyone on that list has far more going on in their kit than her.

people only voting aphelios cause he was just released. No one remembers what laning vs qiyana was like....

Why there is no Akali Pyke and Irelia on the list?

Too many people don't know the difference between overloaded and overpowered.

A champion is overpowered if they're generally a simple champion that's really good at what they do, and nothing else matters. Often time these are stat checkers (such as juggernauts), but are hardly limited to that.

A champion is overloaded if they have a shit ton of tools and options in their kit, and often have "special exceptions" in their kit that aren't found elsewhere in champions. Yasuo, Zoe, and Akali are good examples of these champions.

A champion can be overloaded without being overpowered, and a champion can be overpowered without being overloaded.


Because of this, Qiyanna is probably the most overloaded champion imo due to low cd mobility, low cd stealth, and all the versatility her elements provide. She has many more tools or options (even if they're not good options) than someone like Senna. There's an argument to be made for Sylas maybe? Idk enough about Aphelios yet though, he could be more overloaded.

how is senna on rank 2 lol. this is about overloaded not over powered.

People who say Sylas is overloaded absolutely urk me. Outside of his first few nerfs after release, he only got nerfed due to being a 3 role flex in pro play. He was already a perfectly balanced champion in patches 9.12 - 9.14 but then his jungling got nerfed and then he got completely gutted due to worlds. Anyone who thinks it has to do with his kit is stupid.

Senna 100%. Sure aphelios has a literal overloaded kit with ... just so much going the fuck on BUT he is just an adc. He has one role he is designed for and he can be dealt with. Sylas is a bully all game & im glad he is getting changes but I can at least deal with him. Yuumi was autpilot zzz overpowered but finally seems to be a little more fair to play against; her kit is very simple actually and she was designed for beginners with some room for more experienced players to do some interesting things.

Senna tho... she is a multi-role support/adc with self sustain and ally healing capability in one ability, caitlin range AT BASE, scaling passive mechanic giving her a ton of free stats at no cost, she can pick up her mists safely with her massive range = no counterplay to keep her from stacking. Her Q range is absurd & also resets her aa. aoe cc, aoe camo + ms, global ult that shields and damages. Plus she has a support item just for her (and pyke) and item 3179 lets her one shot wards while she speeds through the area.

Other supports literally cannot compete with this. I would rather deal with an Aphelios than a Senna. And the two of them together is just gross. Senna with any adc is a really bad time unless that Senna player or ADC are making a ton of mistakes.

Easily Senna. She can do just about everything and stacks range and AD infinitely. Has the ability to heal herself and allies, shield herself and allies, has a global ult, MS buffs, stun and can camo her team. They triple nerfed her and pretty much killed her ability to CS and collect mist and she still has a respectable winrate. I don't think any other champion has more utility than Senna in the game and she can scale to do just as much damage as any champion in the game.

Daddy Ants12/15/2019, 12:24:27 PM2 votes

My vote goes to Senna

Sir Saltarin12/15/2019, 3:38:56 PM2 votes

How can be Senna and Aphelios be winning lmao.

Sylas has been by far the most problematic champ this year.
