Before you start posting, let me clarify. By fun to play against, I mean that you are having fun no matter if you are stomping, or they are.

AurelionSol He gives so much opportunity for counterplay, if he's winning against you, he deserves to. Karthus Personal bias on this one since he's my main, but if he's winning against you it's because of one of two things, you are bad at dodging, or he has much better decison making than you do. The champion has a lot of weaknesses that are very easy to exploit and pretty much anyone can do well against him if they're smart. Sion Never seen a Sion in game and thought, "oh that's bullshit." He's a straightforward, well balanced champ. Warwick New Warwick is really fun to play against personally, he warns you that he's potentially coming when he's far away, can miss his ult, and is a very fair champ. Ziggs My opinion of him is, and always shall be; meh, you exist, you go do your thing. Never been mad at a Ziggs once.

All have very clear strengths and weaknesses, as well as the ability to be punished for misplays and missing their abilities.

Singed vs Yasuo or Singed vs Riven

Jhin I'm kind of masochist so I enjoy being hit by him , especially his ult , I feel like I wanna int take his ult hits Teemo , especially his omega squad skin , I have fun slaying him and hear that death sound Annie I have fun raping her and getting raped by her , and I freaking love getting killed by her Tibbers after killing her Akali Ehh , wrong champion .. Nunu seeing him just makes me wanna laugh Morgana I love getting hit by her Q so I can go to shop and prepare for items I wanna buy and then take a shower and eat untill her root leaves me even if I'm dead somehow for no reason Vayne I love it when she dodged all of my skillshots as a mages and go stealth and kill me , sorry I mean another wrong champion Rammus He actually gives me enough time to eat, take a shower , sleep , go to school and come back until his Taunt breaks , that's why I love him , and by love , I can be pretty sadistic so I perma ban him :p

Bard He is just so fun. I have a lot of fun playing with him. When I see him in enemy team it is also fun , no mattter what. Just because of his gameplay with this insane damage, stuns, E+stuns, sometimes Ult.

i dont have fun playing against a single particular champion, however i do have fun match ups. for example darius vs garen is pretty fun. its usually a back and forth with who can get there ult off first, and both players have to be careful when at low health in order to not get executed. thematically its great too.

support vs support or tank vs tank is usually fun for me too because no one is dying in .5 seconds.

Aatrox Darius Ekko Camille Fiora Gangplank Garen Illaoi Irelia JarvanIV Rengar Renekton Tryndamere Yasuo Zed XinZhao Talon ''

as a riven main, all these champions are fun to lane against simply because there is room for outplaying.

there are times i can go in and times i cant go in.

there are times of weakness and times of strength.

i cant just run in blind and win.

i cant just be beaten whenever they jump on me.

its called "skill expression"

riot HATES this term and is working their ass off to remove it so terrible autofilled top laners can SHIT on you without room for counterplay.

I personally enjoy fighting most divers/assassins as Quinn. It’s always a volatile, high-octane matchup where if either one of us makes a single mistake, it’s curtains for us each fight. If they engage carelessly, I Vault off of their dash and disrupt it before blinding them. If I get too antsy and Vault agressively, I’m bursted down.

ValyrianBlade2/2/2018, 11:46:56 PM3 votes

Yes, most of them really. I'll caveat that of course I'm having more fun if I'm winning or it's even. Also that if someone is like 15/0 at 10 min and can crush everyone instantly, then off course it's not fun. The game is over at that point though, and it wasn't necessarily unfun for the first 7 min.

The only ones that aren't: Akali (personal bias there) Ezreal Evelyn Fizz Pantheon Shaco Thresh Yasuo Zoe

With borderline being: Tahm Soraka Janna Teemo

I enjoy playing against Bard

He's really goofy and unpredictable with his E if you catch him while he's roaming around. Toeing the line against him can lead to a lot of hilarious situations; especially when they're making those genius plays to juke you around/dodge your skillshot or gap-closer. A good bard player is easy to recognize because they are often as creative as they are practiced from a game-mechanics point-of-view.

Rathar Dashing2/3/2018, 5:49:40 PM2 votes

Crucify me, but Zoe .

I play a lot of her so I know basically everything she can do, so it really just has me thinking in the back of my head "don't go there, she could bubble me real easily" or using minions to block her skillshots, and basically it just keeps me on the edge of my seat the whole game, because if I screw up past level 6, I'm likely dead, but if I play well I can safely prevent her from having an impact late.

It's fun to play vs Thresh because you can always predict and dodge an average thresh's hooks. But a god level thresh is going to require you to completely change your juking game.

Serika Zero2/2/2018, 8:32:48 PM2 votes

No, not anymore at least. Why is that? Because I lost my favorite champion to play 1v1s and recently i've also started to play Eve, which is a jungler. And its quite different as I'm no longer fighting a 1v1 in mid or top.

I used to like playing against: Riven, Yasuo, Irelia, Nasus, Gnar, Teemo, Jayce. But this was back before Fiora got reworked. After Fiora got reworked, I stopped having fun playing against other champions, just having fun playing my champion (which used to be Akali and Diana after that). Even to this date, i hate the Fiora rework.

Oh, I also liked to play vs Zed or Yasuo on mid back when Lulu mid was viable. But ever since Fiora got reworked, I never have fun 'fighting' against some enemy champions. I'm just not having fun fighting against certain champions such as: Veigar - fucking aoe cage, disgusting Gangplank - like veigar, but with slow instead of stun. Its just that their AoE zone of control is INSANELY BIG.

And ofc, Vayne TahmKench and Tristana .

I got no problem against the likes of: Teemo Yasuo Zoe etc I do ban Zoey quite often simply because she can one shot my adc/mid/top and that can shit the entire team fight from a looooong range. She just have a number issues with having to much damage or to low cooldowns.

However, for me the most disgusting champions are Veigar, Gankblank, Vayne, Tahm and Tristana. Which is probably a very unpopular opinion.

Meh, at least Janna has counterplay. Even if she protects her carries, she's squishy as fuck. Tahm is tanky as fuck and protects the carry.... Vayne and Tristana just got to much self peal for a "hyper carry adc".

At least Kog stays in one fucking place. And without his team protecting him, he will fucking die. So, I can just switch my focus to 1shotting his janna/soraka/nami/lulu and then him. But if there's a Tahm..... fuck that. Vayne and Tristana doesn't even need peal from their team, if the player is good, they are pealing everything themselves... Twich jungle is also disgusting. But only twich jungle, its very disgusting as a laner, because there's literally nothing you can do against it... he gets invisibility while you are lv1 and can just auto attack you with red buff to either kill you or force you to flash before even 2 minutes... Twich ADC is fine because he doesn't shit on your early game......... the idea of an 'late game adc' bringing pain in the early game (from minute 2 for fucks sake) its disgusting........ not even shako does that.

Your question is an oxymoron, playing video games is fun, playing league of legends is fun, playing against other players is fun, playing against other champions played by those players is fun, it's implicit, of course you have fun playing against most of the champions in the game, otherwise you wouldn't be playing the game in the first place.

Warwick and Sion are the only ones that is interesting to play.

With Warwick, nothing happens without you having some warning. You know you are being hunted, and you can either get to a safe position, or prepare a counter attack.

Sion is kinda like this. He’s a cc monster, but to get as much cc as possible, he needs to charge it. He also pretty predictable, so if you are getting destroyed by him, it’s partly your fault. And no matter what lane you are in, if you hear that ult sound, everyone is terrified. However, late game with a metric butt ton of health on top of health items and resistances is an annoyance, but he doesn’t do much damage. He is a tank period. A big, bulky, lumbering giant that soaks up as much damage as possible, and sets up plays for his teammates.

Jinx Caitlyn Jhin Ezreal Lucian Sivir I actually enjoy most traditional ADC matchups like these. (I hate Draven and Vayne.) Back when bot lane wasn't so snowbally, it was fun to see if I could outduel them.

Ashe Know thine enemy.

Believe it or not, I actually enjoy laning against Zoe. She frustrated me a ton at first, but after I got a feel for her abilities and play patterns, I feel like it's all a matter of who's more skilled. (I mostly play Taliyah and Katarina mid.)

Kled

Save for the bullshit when it feels like you should have gotten Skaarl's health bar back, but didn't(and vice-versa the other way), Kled is a great character. His Q is a narrow skillshot that doesn't feel overly punishing to most characters, but can be exceptionally dangerous if you don't respect the proc.

His W forces both players to consider the risk-reward of going for that 4th hit, or backing off. If you can't punish it, you need to get away from his Q.

His E has moments where it feels bad to play against, but that's mainly in tandem with his Q, and in the rare instance you chase someone over walls with it. Using it can feel pointless except for this very combo. That kinda stinks, but it's better to play against for that same reason.

His ult is just generally a cool ability that shows you exactly what area to avoid. It's great for both sides.

If he hits everything, it's very likely he'll wreck you. If he misses his Q, odds are you're fine, save for some edge-cases with exceptionally squishy characters.

Sion is also good, but people have already gone on at length about him.

xGunna12/2/2018, 6:11:47 PM1 votes

they complain always about dmg so the definition of (unfun to play against for them) is having a lot of dmg

that's why they complain about vayne yasuo zoe kata

so any champ that doesn't deal a lot of damage is most of time has the lowest pick rate / ban rate

for example nunu jumped to high ban rate because of damage buff not because he is super tanky

let's face it tankiness is not good to win games and damage give you more than just killing people = killing objectives fast with dmg + tower shred with dmg + wave clear with dmg

what tankiness gives ? no shit just a meat ball moving trying hard to kill a canon minion LUL

with exception that CC wins team fights because when you cc some one he can't do damage to you

the damage in this game is so essential

now nerf zoe's / kata / zed / yasuo damage

and see tomorow their ban rates and pick rates

they suddenly becomes (unfun to play with and fun to play against)

hell even rammus will be fun to play if he can one shot you

because killing other opponents is the fun not the kits or whatever reason
