Personally, my top 3 least favorite champions to fight in lane are these:

  1. Fiora
  2. Renekton
  3. Kled Fiora being my #1 least favorite to fight and Kled being my #3 least favorite champion to fight. Tell me what your top 3 least favorite champions to lane against are in the comments, I'd love to know!

Edit: It seems like Illaoi, Fiora, and Darius are very popular champions to be hated I am also very surprised Mordekaiser isn't hated as much as I thought he'd be

Thank you guys for all of your comments, I really enjoyed reading them and it was very interesting seeing a generalized opinion on what champions people hate laning against!

Top: Yasuo Tryndamere Sett Yasuo's repetitive auto q auto trade pattern from outside other melee characters ranges, infinite dashes, ranged cc, and free shield are annoying enough on their own, but getting 100% crit from just 1 and a half items (making his damage from ult into effectively all true damage) put him far past the tipping point.

Tryndamere just ignores the game and forces everything to revolve around him

Sett not needing to even stack his grit to do more true damage with his W than most characters get as magic or physical on lesser range abilities, it basically negates the entire point of his counterplay. On top of that being a tank killer at a point in the game where tanks have already been struggling for 2 years straight is just asinine.

Jungle: Ekko LeeSin Rengar

Just the typical smurf champions seen in the role so it shouldn't be surprising. They all take advantage of the shitty early level invades that unorganized teams can't react to, but there's a special place in hell for Ekko jungle players particularly.

Mid: Yasuo Talon Akali Yasuo has all the same cancer as his top lane play with his free shield and dashes, but on top of that gets to be immune to characters' entire kits mid thanks to windwall.

Talon is like a corollary to Tryndamere. Where tryndamere ignores the rest of the game and splitpushes 24/7, Talon ignores his own lane after his cheesy level 2 first blood and just picks up free kills with his global threat of one shotting.

Akali nerfs honestly did nothing. She still does twice as much damage level 1 with Q and passive as any other character and still dashes around endlessly in late game fights picking off targets. Now with 60s cooldown ults that do 120 extra base damage for even more cancer!

Bot: Kaisa Aphelios Xayah

No surprises here. All three are still grossly overtuned in raw damage and utility, and all three snowball out of control more than any other character in the role.

Support: Pyke Nautilus Brand (and collectively all APC "supports")

The spooky water hook brothers both make lane phase incredibly boring with bush camping to fish for cheesy kills, which are practically guaranteed if they land a hook thanks to their base damage and the ensuing free autos they grant their ADC.

Mage supports as a whole, though highlighting Brand since his awful AP ratios and 0 trading potential without giving up CS practically ask him to be played in the role. The radius and cast time of his W actually make the ability impossible to dodge if he just casts it centered on an opponent with less than 400 MS or a dash, while dealing ridiculous damage at very low risk (since he doesn't have to worry about giving up W's waveclear power).

When I play as Urgot , Gangplank All he does is Q me in lane and each oranges. Tryndamere My ult automatically reels him in when he is in his ult so I have to time it. Camille I don't play against them often but they normally are really good played who outdamage me in the beginning.

  1. Tryndamere laning phase literally never ends, no skill, R is pure cancer.
  2. Vayne non interactive, boring and obnoxious as hell
  3. Renekton Riven chunk you with too much cc to fight back at all. Riven does at least take 2 braincells to rub together though.

  1. Yasuo No matter what champion I play he makes the laning phase on all of them miserable experience.

  2. Lux or Ahri for similiar reasons.

  3. Blitzcrank or Nautilus again for similiar reasons. I can list more, but will become more of a rant...

1: Nasus i hate playing a game where all my goal is only to denied cs because no matter what score i am, he will still outduel me at some point. 2 Veigar same as nasus but i can still oneshot him if i'm playing a mage with high range. 3Rammus we are force to have multiple source of magic dmg or this champ can outduel me while also being tank.

#1 - Top Quinn Hate how she just leaves lane and murders my whole team (yay low elo struggles) #2 - Mid Yasuo So unfun to play against. I feel like I just have to react to Yas and play passive #3 - Bot Aphelios He's confusing to play against

UlyssesISR2/12/2020, 10:31:49 PM2 votes

yasuo, darius, and vayne

Darius Fiora Tryndamere

DOGSULI2/12/2020, 7:35:07 PM2 votes

As a Camille main, I can say- 1.Fiora This sassy sister counters my kit and usually beats me :D. 2.Darius Darius is just annoying early game, I have to play super safe and hope my team doesn't feed so I can outscale him. 3. Garen Similar do Darius because the early game is boring and annoying.

CLÜE2/12/2020, 4:54:04 PM2 votes
  1. Talon unbeatable early, forces you to give up an insane amount of CS
  2. Kassadin the pressure of having to beat him pre-6 is unbearable
  3. Morgana brain dead push in the wave with top tier safety

assassin ap assassin bruiser.

its easier to give the roles

if i had to name champs...

vlad: dude does over 1k damage with his q when he has 3-4 items while also healing for over 800. with 0 cooldown. and in case he does fuck up once... w and it didnt really happen. (basically ekko r just a bit less op)

riven: shield that scales with ad and goes down to like what 3.2 seconds? once she has her first item done, her shield blocks my level 4 q damage entirely.

irelia: oh whats that? oh i got trintiy now i have infinite dashes, i deal magic and physical damage and heal myself for insane amounts. also my q makes me be "inside of you" so not a single skillshot of yours will ever connect.

bonus: urgot/ornn/kled. oh you got 4k hp, around 300 armor, around 300 ad and you manage to deal half my hp bar in under 2 seconds? thats cool.

Bot lane player here, with probably surprising picks: Jhin Swain MissFortune

Pumpedhero2/12/2020, 4:58:21 PM2 votes
  1. Fiora 2.Illaoi 3.Yuumi

common sense but, 1 & 2 for top lane, 3 for bot lane.if given more, id say Kaisa for bot too.

Teemo Just really annoying. My recent match I completely obliterated him but that doesn't make him less annoying. Majority of my matches are against Teemos and I'm really tired of seeing him. I don't really feel like banning him because there's broken champions that I should be banning instead. Illaoi My ping really doesn't let me avoid her E. My friend has half my ping and he says he can't even avoid it. So, all I can do is just make my movements as random as possible and pay attention to my minion wave. If she does grab my soul, I can just run, trigger the curse thingy, wait for the tentacle to slam, kill it, wait for another to spawn and kill that. That only spawns two. Its not hard to do that, but its not a very interesting matchup. Ornn Idk, just so much slows and he does a ridiculous amount of damage. He doesn't seem to run out of mana... I almost always win against him in lane, he's just annoying.

Honorable mentions: Fiora Just overtuned but if I can be aggressive and get an edge on her, its satisfying to make her useless...during laning because she always finds a way to come back later on. If I don't get an edge in lane or she teleported somewhere and got a double kill, then its a lot of wall hugging and that sucks. Morgana Just stunned for a million years in a pool of pain

I think Mordekaiser is a strong champion but I think the reason he wasn't mentioned is because he's kinda okay in lane. I usually just play around his CD's. The problem is when he starts roaming and killing my teammates.

Aatrox i know hes not great right now but i play things that trox can actually beat. and im too lazy to dodge all his shit he spams. Darius the sheer amount of damage and free AD this guy gets on top of sustain , a hook, a root (99%slow), and true dmg. u dont get to play. Olaf hes always fed and ignores cc very fun to deal with this monster running at your or your team.

What does everyone have against Fiora? In early she isnt overpowered, not even little bit. She has trade off so her 1v1 is somewhat deserved. Has windowed power and weaknesses. Has it hard in skill cap match ups as every other skill cap champ. Has to be played as skill cap champ. Can be easily punished and then crushed for even small mistakes.( I am still talking about "against melee" match ups) Has hard time carrying her team. Has lower snowball potential than majority of bruisers. Has expensive itemization. Scale quite slowly. Execute of her kit isnt that reliable, especially when opponent knows how to play against you and know what he should avoid and force you to do or not to do. Maybe is annoying, thats all. In experienced hands she is OP but those hands deserve victory...

Duskdemon2/12/2020, 10:01:19 PM1 votes

In no particular order it's:

  1. Fiora
  2. Illaoi And 3. Pyke
