This game takes ZERO skill right now.

Okay, yes I am salty while writing this post. I joined back in Season 5 on 11th of July I think. League was fun and addicting, from day I started playing it I wasted more then 5 hours a day on it. I ended season 5 in Silver 3. Before end of the season I started learning Azir, I am pretty good with him. You know that he is one of hardest champion in the game. It was amazing feeling, I played one of hardest champions and a champion that has really hard to learn mechanics. I was really happy about that. This Season 6 aka Boost Me Plz Season I got to Gold 2 and now demoted to Gold 5. I don't know what happend. Last game I played Azir, I love his thematics I love him a lot as champ and I love his personality(If you can actually say that you like champs personality?). I did well last game and everything but this is thing that made me mad and made me hit my laptop really hard like always when I get annoyed. http://imgur.com/zFYuR6G I had Lux support that was 1/13/15 and he said that he doesen't care about the game. I got really mad when I saw this Veigar which takes 0 skill to play and I get killed by him. Now tell me what the HELL is point of learning a hard champion? Yes, Azir is a beast in late game. Early game is so weak, Mid meh and Late is really strong. But what is the point of learning him? When Veigar traps me with E and even If I Zhonyas he uses Q and takes half of my heath. What is point tell me? This game takes 0% skill. When will Riot balance some stupid champions that got no counterplay. Literally if you get on Azir he has 3 escapes max.

  1. Ult
  2. Flash
  3. W - E - Q combo If you get on stupid Veigar he will E you that lasts so long and then just W - Q - R you and you are dead. D E A D. Game over. State of the game is trash, it didnt feel like this when I joined. Maybe because I was addicted like I am now. I didn't cared about anything. Right now I am mad so mad. I was banned 2 weeks for being toxic, I don't want to get banned so I punch things around my house when a Veigar player tell me "easy" and other trash. This is my final statement. This game takes 0% skill, 30% luck, 70% abusing broken and overpowered champions. Downvote or Upvote, I don't care. This is my honest opinion about state of the game. Maybe I am trash or something. I don't care anymore..

Veigars meant to delete people man

doesn't matter who you are, he's meant to dent or delete, regardless of the champion.

Especially if you're playing another mage.

And what is Azir supposed to do? Veigar just clicks 2 buttons to remove you and what Azir can do? Nothing. 0. Even if he takes much more time to learn and master.

The best way azir can handle veigar is to bait out his stun, he's a champion you punish level 2 onwards

Later on in the game you just have respect veigar will just delete you if your squishy.

As unbalanced as it seems you have to remember his w is a very small aoe and his ult is only single target.

Level 3-6 if you can bait his e out he loses a ton of guaranteed damage. Take that opportunity to punish him hard, even out of laning. A veigar Dark Matter is very difficult to land unless you just openly stand near its zone, or are just not paying attention. His ult will not straight up kill you without landing a spell first to get the scaling execute on it.

When it comes to teamfighting wait till veigar uses his e then attempt to shuffle him to the frontline. Or take him out of the fight to leave their tanks stranded so they don't have the burst he offers, but of course using it for one person is a bad idea. try to get atleast the said veigar and someone like the support or ad out of the fight aswell.

Sorry if this is poorly written, not really great at this sort of stuff. item 3070

The Veigar in that pic has 1346 AP. He has Deathcap, Bluebuff, 317 Stacks from his passive, maybe atleast 1 Infernal Drake considering your team seems quite far behind, and he has Sorc-Boots+Voidstaff while you have no MR. He has 4 completed Items + 1/2 of Hourglass, while you only have 3 Items. Yes, if you allow him to get to this point, and doint build atleast some MR against him, he will simply nuke you out of the game. He will however not Oneshot you at the beginning of the game. So at some point in the game you and your team did something wrong, that allowed this Veigar to get super-far ahead.

There are certainly balance-problems at this game, but taking this situation to prove a point, that is not a good argument. If the roles were reversed, you could just as well argue "Oh God, Azir is so stupid, he just uses W-Q-AA and instantly kills me with the Thunderlords-Proc." Every Champions, if super-far ahead, can do stuff like that. A fed Leblanc can Q-W to Oneshot you. etc. Getting fed enough to do stuff like that is where it gets tricky.

And to be honest, I'm not the biggest Azir-Player, but shouldn't you have the range advantage against Veigar? Sure, if you get close to him, he can delete you. So... don't. Poke him from range in lane, keep track of him in teamfights and position yourself accordingly. Build Abyssal, so you have atleast some protection. I don't feel like Veigar is the worst matchup for Azir, if you play it right.

I won't consider Azir's early mid game weak compare to veigar lol. As azir you should be able to push veigar into his tower early so he cant last hit with Q, and when fighting you greatly out range him you should be able to force him out of lane quite often.

the veigar has 15 kills nearly full build and you got no mr, your team score is 27:44, honestly shouldn't be surprised for that dmg.

(BTW when Vi is in the game why will you call veigar no skill)

Right, so I am getting downvoted. This is so amazing. Ofc, I must play Katarina and Zed to rank up.

It's your choice, you know. If you mastered him, I'm pretty sure you would be able to rek Veigar. Let's see: you got a w that lets you spawn soldiers and attack Veig even if you're inside the zone. You've got an e to escape as well.

Okay, he counter picked you. Or if you blind picked Azir, that's your fault, you left yourself open for a counter pick. While Veigar doesn't take much skill to play, he's nothing if he gets shut down or has someone that counters him (Zed primarily). If you picked Azir into him, that was dumb.

He locked Veigar blindly. What is logic to get instakilled by point to click ultimate. What is point of the game? Who plays the MOST broken champ?

RG Velean2 votes

So then you picked Azir into a Veigar, that's a loosing matchup if you're not an amazing Azir player. That's your fault. Also, you guys were getting blown out, so that damage isn't shocking

Agreed it takes 0 skill because tanks are still broken kek

The e has a delay if you didn't know. Makes it easier to dodge the walls

This magical thing called an hourglass, does wonders, if you to also know how to push a button before he does.

As I said in post I use it and still get killed because his damage is insane even if hes easy champion. Its important that Rito nerfed the hell out of Azir.

Decision making has and always will be a skill in any game you play and in real life. In the case of dying because of a combo, you made the "decision" to go in at the wrong time, hence lacking that skill.

You like to brag about playing a high skill champion, but you seem to be missing a very basic skill:

Buy item 1033

What I'm reading:

A Veigar with 1350 AP, the burstiest mage in the entire game without question by design, just killed me, a squishy mage with no resistances in one hit, and I'm super surprised.

BluePolarizer1 votes

Do you think Faker or Bjergson on Azir would've lost to that gold Veigar?

No?

Then your problems are solvable by getting better.

while u should be able to punish veigar early and mid game his scaling is beyond resonable no one in this should be allowed to come even close to 1000 ap. Veigar is so disgusting right now he doesnt need a full combo to delete anyone ive found my self being 100 to 0 by one of his abilties just fuckin one that shit aint cool at all in any way shape or form. I have also play azir into veigar and cirb stomped his ass in lane and for 35 min after that he solo's evryone if u group stun insta death if u dont he q or ulti u and its 4vs 5. His kit itself is fine but when they changed the scaling with the mage update i think they fucked up i mean cases on utube of Veigar having 1000 ap by late game with no items is stupid. I guess if i played him more id probally be happy but any assassin will fuck him up.I mean i dont feel like he is in the meta but he is very annoying even if u play around his stun
