Which champion is the most "useless"?

undesirable team··9 votes·5,765 views

I mean like, in team fights. The person who does the least in them. For me, I think its Nunu ... The only AOE he has is a nuke that has a cast time. He can only snowball people, and his ganks are pretty weak. Who do you think is the most useless champion is? (who has the least impact in the game)

Shaco If he doesn't get fed, you might as well have a 4v5 with a wandering minion If he gets fed, but the game goes longer than 25 min, enemy team has adantage

Yeah but his early game counter jungling presence is godly and his ganks are dank if you're good and he can likely finish games in 7 mins through demoralization.

Fiddlesticks He has a kit reliant on keeping the enemy near him so that he can drain them while he stands still. His only CC causes them to run away.

Slowly. And his ult is gamechanging. Even if he is reduced to doing nothing but ulting and using Zhonya's, he's not anywhere near as useless as the other champions mentioned.

TotalJerk1 votes

Also, he wants to be close to you, but has slow casts and is one of the squishiest champions in the game.

Sona A tragic history of only nerfs ever since the game started. Over 40 nerfs in season 4 alone. At least 25 simultaneous nerfs all in patch 4.13. Unarguably the weakest support in the entire game, if not the weakest champ. Bottom of the chart stats across the board and a kit specifically designed for failure, it's truly a wonder why Jagex Konami Rito hasn't gone through yet with their hints at removing her from the game. Especially after more than half a dozen employees have openly stated their hatred for her existence, the majority of whom are "balance" staff.

The only support that wins more than Sona in Diamond+ is Janna. Sona is statistically among the strongest supports in the entire game right now and is performing at a top tier level even in high elo.

We get it; hating Riot is the cool thing to do and the "Sona is garbage tier" narrative is easy to latch on to but it has literally no statistical backing at this point. The Sona rework was 17 months ago. Your last Sona game was almost 19 months ago. You literally don't have a single game of the reworked Sona on the account that you spend so much time and effort "defending" her on. Not 1 fucking game. It's time to nut up and admit that you actually have no idea what you're talking about in regards to Sona, or, alternatively, that this isn't about Sona at all and you're just using her as an excuse to express your hatred of Riot. In either case, you're campaigning on behalf of a champion, poor old garbage tier Sona, that only exists in your mind at this point. The Sona currently in League of Legends is pretty strong right now even among the highest elos.

Yorick for sure. At least Nunu has a huge ADC steroid, and sick objective control.

Idk, yorick can revive an adc for 10 seconds, that's pretty strong. He can easily win lane, and does massive amounts of damage while getting tanky :P (don't even mention that dumb sustain though :))

Xrusa2 votes

GA can revive people too, and indefinitely if you get a convenient position. Also most (meta) champs have great sustain or cc while also bringing more teamfight presence than Yorick. I won't deny Yorick will wreck almost anyone 1v1, but teamfights highlight how weak he is overall.

no champion is "useless" like you said nunu doesnt have that much at face value but if hes left alone for 3 seconds he dropps a nuke to rivial the one that started the fallout franchis

I'd say Evelynn because she barley has the sustain in jungle in my opinion and only has I good thing in team fights so she is basically a 1v1 champ

Eve's ult is really stronk. She does tons of damage and you can never tell where she is. You can build practically anything, and delete people :p

Probably but i don't really like this champion to be honest. I feel like they should give her more damage output for jungle monsters because her clear is slow and needs to back after blue most of the time.

Most useless champs in no specific order:

-Damage dealers who are so far behind, they don't seem to deal any damage at all. Basically, assassins and carries who are considerably behind in levels and gold.

-Junglers who give up lane pressure in order to rush Sated Devourer, never prioritize objectives, but somehow fail to reach 30 stacks by the 25 minute mark.

-All-in champs such as Jarvan or Xin who will build full glass cannon, even when behind.

-Supports who split push.

I don't believe any champ in the game is actually useless. In the right hands, any champ can be played to some degree of success. It's the player that makes the champ seem useless.

I completely agree with this last part. This is something I tell a lot of people in-game.

Twitch Although I'd hesitate to say any champion is COMPLETELY useless Twitch just doesn't have a niche to call his own despite his unique kit and simply takes so much to become the kind of serious threat an ADC needs to be and even when the stars align and he gets ahead to that point, any other ADC would be able to just as well if not better in that situation.

Twitchs niche is ganking top or bot at Level 2 with red buff and ignite when the enemy laners are still level 1. He has probably the best level 2 gank and if he gets a kill he can snowball.

Nunu is underestimated in teamfights. He saps hundreds of gold worth of stats between the attacks speed and movespeed slows on his ult and his snowball on top of giving his ADC a huge attack speed boost. He also forces someone to use a hard CC on him, which is usually a waste since he builds tank.

But if we are going to talk about teamfights, I think it's Tryndamere. If he isn't fed to hell, he's just awful in teamfights. He doesn't splitpush forever to piss you off, he does it because that's all he can do.

ur talking to a shaco main >.< I know, i'm a troll. I love shaco, you just have to take out their carry, and ult to get away. you can pull off some sick plays with shaco, it's kinda op though. bruiser you're a tank, but full assassin and AP shaco are the funnest, kill the carry and run away!

Nunu doesn't really gank but he can get a level 3 dragon, helps with tower pushing.... and can steal camps super fast. Yes some people thing junglers HAVE TO GANK to be good but objective control can be important as long as your whole team isnt 0/2 before 5 minutes.

Nocturne

Build Nocturne with item 3153 item 3742 item 3931 item 3124 item 1301 item 3065 then talk to me about how he doesn't do well in team fights. Go in with an ult on the ADC, fear either the carry or their other high dmg brisuer.

Nocturne is actually quite good right now. Numerous buffs to his ult, which is already one of the most powerful tools in the game

Teemo or Nidalee in team fights, both are garbage if they are behind and do no damage, Nidalee is probably worse since you have to hit skill shots.

Frooster2 votes

Good thing people here not balance the game lol. theres a difference between useless and weak or overnerfed:

Fiddlesticks Have 2 Hard CCs and 1 of them can affect multiple people Plus devastating AoE magical damage and 1 of the strongest ult in the game. Shaco People who say shaco has a bad late game are stuck in season 2/3 or think than teamfights is the only thing you can do in the late game IMO all the Ad items changes were a huge buff to him he doesnt really fall off anymore plus he can create insane pressure splitpushing since his dueling potential is extremly high or 1 shotting your squishy Carry/support and still get away with it. Twitch Twitch only has a bad laning phase and even not that bad after his Q now refunds on kills and hes the second best late game adc only behind KogMaw just build item 3085 and you melt everyone from a safe 700 range with your true damage. Nocturne Nocturne only needs 1 or 2 offensive two items to do considerable damage,can spell shield important ults for the team, a hard CC and the phsicological fear of his global ult is also there.

Then theres champions like Nunu Singed who you can say than they are useless but the point of picking them is to make the enemy top/jung as useless as you stealing your camps or just goin full proxy and force people to come to the top lane.

JavelinJoe2 votes

Galio With the more cost to AP items, he really doesn't face too many AP mids making his passive useless. Plus he needs flash to engage which now most champions can either dodge or interrupt. He is also mana hungry and with no mana pots, he suffers early game.

The most useless champion in the game award goes to.....Udyr

he's a damn good jungle farmer but that's it. No reason to build devourer on him if u ain't gonna get any auto attacks. And god forbid if you go against protect the ADC comp. Prepare to get instabursted and permakitted. There's no damn reason to play this champion if Olaf and Volibear fulfill his role better than he ever did. Oh and the AFK farm routine? MasterYi Nocturne Shyvana are the kings and queens of afk farming and excell far better after level 6 than Udder while he remains useless as he is. Anyway Udyr is dogshit.

Go to Heck1 votes

Udyr has been and still is one of the best junglers around. Has a good clear, sustain, gank potention with his bear form and a shield to protect him if the gank fails. He can go glass cannon with devourer, bruiser with warrior, tank with cinderhulk, and even ap with runeglaive. He fits into almost any team comp due to his versatility. Ive been playing him since i first started playing at the end of season 4 and even to this day i still dont die in half my games with him. He can carry a game or be a supporting character by being a distraction that the front liners have to deal with while the rest of the team goes for the adc. Also, the fact that he can stun an entire team is something not many champs can do. Udyr is well worth the time to learn and play because he is very effective from the jungle and even top lane.

true most of the time you use ult you just kill your selft and the person you ulted just flashes back to their team

Hard4Hamsters1 votes

I don't agree with Nunu personally as he can basically make any ADC completely useless on the enemy team while buffing his own ADC with MS and attack speed. His Ultimate is also a teamfight changer as someone HAS to deal with Nunu or disengage when he ults, basically guaranteeing he will absorb some abilities and put them on CD.

To your question I have to say Aatrox. No matter how he is built, if he is not snowballing, he cannot contribute much to a teamfight, and even when he is snowballing he would be better served as a splitpusher. Even champs similar to him like Tryndamere can use their ult to dive the backline or a champion like Master Yi can be an amazing cleanup crew, but Aatrox lacks the tools to pull these things off and is really just a low range dps carry with limited CC and only moderate tankiness even when built defensively. His passive can help him have more effective hp in a teamfight, but he is almost useless when he revives and simply gets killed again in most situations unless his team is far enough ahead to clean up before he revives.

Most bards turn every game into an instant 4v5s, with the potential to actually use their ult in such a way that it benefits the enemy team.

Some of the most frustrating games are ones with the terrible kind of bard that fails entirely to use their stun, and accidentally denies your team kills.
