Hello, I am silver trash, BUT, I think I'm a decent story teller, and wisdom can come from fools at times.


Last season I was maining Illaoi . On my good games, I would carry super hard, but she has some really bad match-ups.

I HATED first picking, but I really felt all my other champs were weaker, so I would cross my fingers, and just first pick her.

This felt horrible. :(

So often I see the advice, "Main 2 or 3 champs." and I think it is good advice, but what I don't see mentioned, is to have a BLIND PICK main.

If you wanna main X champ, but they have 3 or 4 hard counters in the meta, I'm sorry, I would really suggest ONLY playing that champ, when you have knowledge of your laner.

This season, I got M7 Urgot and I've been playing the shit out of him.

If I first pick him.... how bad can it be? After I blind pick, and then the enemy picks X SHITFUCK champ I can't stand, Urgot is a champ that can AT LEAST safely farm.

Then games when I KNOW what I'm facing, I can pull out other more risky picks. It just makes the whole world seen less scary, and I get the shit beat out of me less.

I'm not saying everyone main Urgot lol, there are quite a few champs like this I think, who are tough lane bullies, that can farm, and deal with whatever you throw at them.

For Top Urgot Sion Aatrox Chogath come to mind.

If I get filled mid, and I'm blind picking? Oh yeah gimme that Malzahar or Heimerdinger Whatever you pick, I'm not interacting with you, unless I want too. LOL

Support? Ill grab Xerath or Velkoz or Veigar


Basically SAFE picks!

Just some food for thought, to anyone struggling with this issue.

If you REALLY wanna main something like AurelionSol , and blind pick that shit.... I think your cray cray.

Peace and love peoples.
