What are the Strongest Classes?

Incarceration··5 votes·937 views

I just played a game where we had 3 assassins vs a legitimate composition.

The sad part is we almost won.

This led me to wondering which is the strongest class now in a 5 vs 5?

My vote is tanks, they can just run it down mid.

Well that depends on who you ask. For marksmen it would be assassins For Mages it would prob be tanks For the boards it would be Marksmen

As I can see that you're a Kog'Maw main, I'm assuming you think assassins are the strongest?

I mean I sometimes go full salt as a KogMaw main and say Brand and Blitzcrank supports are OP. ######That's the closest I have tho.

Tanks and Fighters > Supports > Mages > Marksmen > Assassins imo

I assume you mean if all five members of each team was all the same class, in different combinations?

In that case, it's almost like playing Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock.

Although I wouldn't count supports, since they are the double-dippers in classes.

Renekton and Hecarim are divers, aye. Both juggernauts and divers are fighters, though.

mages and adcs are top. after that tanks and supports enchanters etc if they aren't the same thing.

fighters are only good if they are broken. same with divers bruisers etc.

3 assassins on 1 team is just an autoloss if the enemy picks tanks. The only class you can pick 5 off and still win are Marksmen because they have the best scalings, best objective control, best items in the game and they become inherently tanky because of lifesteal combined with Sterak/Maw/Night/Scimitar. They have the highest damage output in the game and you can't focus 5 of them. That is why we have seen successful meta's of 4 adc's per team during season 6.

Because armor and especially Thornmail mean so much in a world with abundance of armor penatration, MR and lifesteal: item 3153 item 3812 item 3036 item 3071 item 3156 item 3814item 3139 item 3072

It made so you aren't a free heal for them combin that with item 3143 item 3047 item 3075 isn't made to kill the one autoing you it made to lower the healing

Nameless Voice2 votes

Building more than one Thornmail instead of an item with armour+health is rather sub-optimal, really.

Either way, a Vayne with Warlord's will still easily cut through all that damage reflection, especially if she also has six items.

1 you don't really get 4 thorn mails but the idem is underrated do to everyone thinks it made to kill the one autoing you. It's made so you aren't A free heal combin that with item 3143 you really hurt an adc that autos you

Get that Tabi too.

And have your supp/you build Frozen Heart if you can. I say 'if you can' because mainly I play Shyv or RIven.

I play mostly Darius And sometimes Illaoi ( she fun but her kit is so weak unless you put a lot of games in her or you opponent just doesn't think) On both of them i want item 3143 for the slow and health to increase my healing but I do think I don't give item 3110 the credit it deserves

Illaoi is great against immobile tanks, it's incredibly hard for them to dodge her tentacles and much easier for her to land her E at range (which she'll have to do in order to do damage, since they'll just be super passive). During your ult, you can easily kill more mobile targets as well, as long as it's not a 40% CDR Fiora or a 45% Cdr Riven who is good enough with their Q's to actually juke your stuff.

Personally I love item 3110 for the mana and resists, which scale nicely with lifesteal. My Fiora build is usually Phage first back, into Rav, BC, then a Bloodthirster, into a Frozen Heart and GA. The passive also helps dueling.

This came to mind because of this: http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2387327436/209645298?tab=overview

Sorta depends on what class they're facing.

5 assassins versus 5 marksmen/mages is probably going to be a good day for the assassins. 5 assassins versus 5 tanks or 5 supports (who survive or have cc or similar to stop assassinations) would be less good.

If you wanna go on strongest class its the adc's. However, they are also the squishiest class.

lol at poll results, the only classes that have a chance if you have a team full of the same class is supports. and maybe tanks.

mainly because its impossible to deal with the CC from a 5 support comp.

If we're talking five of the same thing, generally tanky champs in disorganized play. Even disorganized teams can usually manage to focus down soft targets. But when the enemy team consists of five beefy jerks who won't die, who are you supposed to prioritize?

Asayake 5150glow1 votes

Kiting and crowd control.

These are the real answers.
