Karthus is pretty fun. I also find Ekko fun in mid.

I'm going to probably be downvoted for that.

Ekko 's fine as long as he's not tankko.

bistrohJul 18, 20162 votes

Tank Ekko sucks now. Full AP Ekko (His real build) is broken as crap.

Blue Moon WolfJul 18, 20161 votes

I figure as long as he's not abusing tank items it'll be fine till they finish the assassin update. He's bound to get some amount of work done after all the effort they put into him just to get him in a spot where he couldn't abuse tank items. I don't know what they will do, but the hope is that he won't end up being one of the champs that get a huge increase in win rates afterwards (that's the hope anyway).

Karthus

SyruponroflsJul 18, 20163 votes

Yasuo Because he is legitimately fun to play. But he will taker some time before you know how to play him properly. Ignore all the hate but I am serious if you like being in a fight and making flashy plays there is no other place to look.

Don't bother playing any fun champions. In this game, the strongest champions are the most pathetically easy, boring as hell fucking clickers. Annie, LB, Kat, Ziggs, Azir, Ahri, Viktor, Veigar, etc. Anything that takes any amount of skill is nerfed into the ground so that the whales don't feel bad about not being able to play them, and happily spend money on skins for the easy wins.

Okay first of all, don't spoil his or her dreams. Fun champions can be mained. Simple champions can be outplayed by their higher skill cap counterparts, balanced by the fact that the high skill cap ones require dedication.

Also you mentioned Azir and Viktor, they are both high skill cap champions. And Azir was heavily nerfed, despite being a high skill champion. They are not pathetically easy as you claim.

NiyumiJul 19, 20161 votes

Fun champions can be mained, but you'll be gimping yourself for no reason. The only way to climb or win at all is to main the bullshit gimme champs.

Both Azir and Viktor are pathetically easy. AA spam through proxy, or spell spam from long range and one-shotting people -- your choice of bullshit.

TyrekGoldenspearJul 19, 20161 votes

You clearly haven't played Azir if you think he's easy to use. He may be easy to pick up but he is hard to master.

Anybody can pull up a soldier and AA. It takes dedication to use all of his skills in conjunction to win a teamfight. Even a godlike Azir cannot 1v5 like a lot of champs. He needs the appropriate team comp to do well.

Also, every champ is powerful in their own way, it's why they are called "Champion." Some champions will counter others and that is unavoidable and fine.

I'm not sure who you main, but I'm sure they have tools or a way to take down these champs you mentioned.

NiyumiJul 19, 20161 votes

You are clearly an asshole who won't admit reality; he is pathetically easy, and absurdly strong while not deserving it at all.

No, some champs are just pathetically weak, while others are broken and have next to no counterplay (yet the broken ones get no attention at all, while the one who actually require some thought are nerfed into the ground so whales don't feel bad).

TyrekGoldenspearJul 19, 20162 votes

Okay, he's strong. There I admitted it. But hear me out.

He has gotten nothing but nerfs since his release, and his win rate is at an all time low. Still people like you want him to be weaker.

I'm sorry, but I have invested so much time into trying to play Azir well that I get a little ruffled when people who don't understand how to play against him want him gutted.

I will admit I'm biased towards him because he's my favorite champion, but you are also extremely biased against him judging that you called him pathetically easy.

I am sorry if I sounded condescending in my last reply, I didn't mean to come off that way. I just want my favorite champion to stay relevant.

NiyumiJul 19, 20161 votes

Nerfs won't fix his issue. It's just like how Annie can't be made fair without making her do so little damage that you can ignore it.

His issue is that his damage is unavoidable, is targeted, and you can't really build MR against him since he's sustained damage and just chews through your health. Literally all he does is spam AA, only through a proxy. That, and Rylai's, makes his kit beyond broken. It's like an ADC autoing you for 800-1000 damage twice a second (which some do) and permanently slowing you the whole time while being able to dash around, throw you around, all that.

I say he's pathetically easy because I have ~50k mastery on him, and could carry games with him within a couple games. You don't need the Shurima Shuffle to carry, and Q>E>R is an easy enough combo for anyone to do.

ArakadiaJul 19, 20161 votes

According to http://loldb.gameguyz.com/analyze/fight/index/67921488/1/67921488 you have 5 games on Azir this season.

NiyumiJul 19, 20161 votes

This season, sure. Still have 50k mastery on him.

ArakadiaJul 19, 20161 votes

Who do you think the most difficult champion is? I can make them sound very easy. Azir is far from just clicking.

I can't verify that you have 50k mastery on him as S4 won't load for that website but I'll take your word for it

NiyumiJul 19, 20161 votes

Ori, Bard, Teemo (and doing something more than dropping mushrooms, being useful), Shaco, Eve (assassin, not tank), etc. Champions who can't just click and win, and have to think a little bit in order to do anything.

ArakadiaJul 19, 20161 votes

Its easy to make a champion sound easy.

Evelynn has a instant cast ultimate thats basiclly undodgable, her Q auto targets, her E is targeted as its a basic attack empowerment, and her W just speeds her up. Just tape your Q button down and press E/ult whenever its up.

I don't actually think Evelynn is easy, but making a champ sound easy is easy.

TyrekGoldenspearJul 19, 20161 votes

Well if you have that much mastery it would explain why you find him so easy. I don't have anywhere near that much mastery.

If they have to rework him I'm okay with it. I just don't want him to be nerfed to uselessness.

Not the only way.

Who do you think is the hardest champion? Im curious.

xTropicalPenguinJul 18, 20163 votes

BladeSteelJul 18, 20162 votes

I'm trying her out again I love her kit so much that I want to keep playing her...but idk how it'll be...Wish they would revert it :(

Cho gath because you get to laugh at yasuo, zed, and most other op picks

TyrekGoldenspearJul 19, 20161 votes

Zed : Ha, what fool summoner took a melee champ mid? this will be fun. Chogath eats a couple of minions and grows to over double Zed's size. Zed :Oh no you don't. I'll deal with you like I deal with every midlane mage. Shred them with my shuriken then dive in for the kill. Zed throws his razor shuriken at Cho'Gath, who ignores him and feeds on minions to heal back what little damage he did. Zed : Wut? Then the next thing Zed sees in order are him getting knocked up, silenced, and devoured.

I beg to differ, w-ing while running is so fun- the enemy just keeps getting chunked and get further and further away

Azir

Though I haven't played him since his last batch of nerfs so he's probably weak as fuck right now considering his early game damage was already kinda pathetic before the nerfs.

TyrekGoldenspearJul 19, 20161 votes

Azir is a fun champ right now.

The only noticeable difference is that he doesn't hit his powerspike till later in the game, and that is more of a balancing attempt due to the fact that he is a hypercarry, not an early game champ.

He isn't weak, he just needs the proper team comp to lead to victory, preferably one with high amounts of CC and engage.
