Underrated URF champions

S0NA··17 votes·13,206 views

Zyra At level 3 she can zone you out from under your own tower with her Q+W plant spam. Swain Despite the healing nerf, if he ever gets close to you you're fucked. Twitch Whenever his ult is up he gets a free tower. Shen Shield spam is crazy. AP Shen deals a ridiculous amount of damage. Best abuser of Zz'Rot imo.

Malzahar: Build AD. Proceed to make an army of Voidlings. Proceed to split-push. Proceed to destroy full-HP towers in 3 seconds. That is not an exaggeration.

Nautilus: There is no escape from him... So much CC and so much HP. Even with the URF nerf, you can have your shield up constantly. Also, your Q is on such a short CD that early game it's actually faster to stay next to a wall and drag yourself along than it is to walk down a lane. When in the jungle you can also kite as Naut just by E'ing then Q'ing away and repeating. Zz'rot's also really fun with him too.

To be honest, item 3512 itself is really strong in URF. I'm not sure if no one else has caught on to its strength yet, but I've been getting it in nearly every game. At one point, I had two out at once. One was in top lane slowly breaking down the second-tier tower, and the second one was helping me smash down mid's Inhibitor tower. ^_^

Aye. That's why I said "Even with the URF nerf, you can have your shield up constantly."

Annie -Tibbers is permanent. So are the stuns.

Soraka - Do not underestimate a silence field on a 4s CD in a game mode based on spamming.

Syndra - She's got more balls than all the men in LOL.

Zilean - Whatyoumeantheressuchathingasbasespeed? AndwelcometoHiroshima.

Evelynn The 0.3 second q combined with luden's = insane damage. Plus you have a permanent movespeed buff.

Urgot Maybe it is just because no one has him, but your q is a homing machine gun. That is just fun.

Malphite Started playing this full ap. I don't know why, but I just end up murdering everyone.

XinZhao: My favorite pocket pick is AP Xin. Mash QWE repeatedly on a target - the satisfaction is real.

AP Tryn just blows my mind, and cuts through the enemy team like butter haha. That heal though too helps a whole lot

Light deus2 votes

DrMundo ult only has 2 second cd on it, his q only has 0.8, he is pretty much unkillable

Chespin20132 votes

Fiddlesticks very low cd on his ult and low cd on a aoe silence and a fear to back it up

Poppy build item 3152 item 3146 item 3145 you are now the ultimate jungle monster

A Miss Fortune1 votes

AP Poppy is extremely broken. You can very easily one shot anybody in the game no matter how fed they are at full build, not even a full AP Build. I have 0 idea why but it just does so much damage. People usually say "gg poppy trolling" in normal games but in URF or Normal games they usually shut up when you 1v5 the enemy team and win.

UPfreely1 votes

well if u hit some1 into a wall you can pretty much keep them there forever unless they flash/dash/blink. even full item mundos cant get away. so i find the SV more helpful esp when extras are attacking you

DoYoHomewerk2 votes

they actually nerffed the amount of damage shens shield can take

DEmperor952 votes

Azir Build full AP and proceed to slaughter anyone who dares to come close. You have all the CDR and AS you will ever need, a dash every 3 seconds, and an ult every 20 seconds.

Jinx With a maxed Q and item 3046 bought you can hit max attack speed for incredible turret destruction. Q (fishbones) W and E all allow you to zone pretty well.

Gangplank Later in the game with crit bought and heal embargo a lot less severe he is able to sustain well and pump out insane damage. Ult clears waves or just simply help someone in need.

Chogath Get Q level 1, if you land a Q you can chain them forcing your opponent to either die or burn flash. W's silence is devastating in this game mode.

TwistedFate Q might as well be his auto attack, ignore ranking E altogether for insane wave clear and damage. R helps you keep track of pesky stealth targets.

Havent seen anyone play Moakai aside from me, and i just love spamming the Sap!

Thefriendlyorc1 votes

He can only throw 5. So you get jumped on, your seeds don't do enough to kill anyone, they proceed to mash you into plywood..

Raid Boss Morde2 votes

I put 5 saplings in a bush, a lux TPed into the bush, then died instantly from it.

The Red Warden1 votes

Yorick endless ghoul slam with the ult always being up meaning people have to be killed twice. He becomes a huge tank due to the passive and sustain, but can also deal some severe damage.

He is a literal monster mash.

He has been who I've been playing. He's really fun and pushes like a beast, but if they get any of the broken mobility champs you are pretty much just a cannon minion.

The Red Warden1 votes

In that situation ult your adc so they have to either focus on you or the ult ghost

Thefriendlyorc1 votes

The immobile ghost ult that can't use abilities in urf mode? What makes you think they will be anywhere near it for more than .01 seconds? Even if it is ranged.

The Red Warden1 votes

I spam ghouls a lot early game and piss people off so they really want to kill me. If you don't piss people off with Yorick in URF you're doing something wrong.

Thefriendlyorc1 votes

If you need to rely on the stupidity of your lane opponent, a well designed champion he is not. I've spammed him a few games and there were some matches where I outlined a fizz and lb with sheer swarms. Then I fought a hecarim and he outclassed me In every fashion imaginable and the entire game I was made to feel like a second class citizen. No idea why they brought hecarim copter back and nerfed trap champs.

The Red Warden2 votes

I never said he was well designed, and I don't think anyone thinks he is.

Thefriendlyorc1 votes

Agreed, which is a shame, as the 'endless minion necromancer' is one of my favorite concepts.

TheOGSnow1 votes

Wanna see someone who doesnt care about yorick on URF? Sivir at level 1 and level 5-30. I played Sivir against Yorick. Level one, he couldnt get in range. Level 3 he won every trade. Then I rushed an avarice blade and a BF sword and powerfarmed, using his minions to get a huge gold advantage. Level 5, he couldnt fight me. That was the end of him lanning against me.

Thefriendlyorc1 votes

Like half the urf roster doesn't give a shit about yorick. If you have range, blinks, or sustain,, you can out damage, out kite, or just outright ignore him. He's fun for a laugh in lane when you're making your own minion wave. But that's about it. Was fun to proxy farm with him tho

DoYoHomewerk1 votes

true dat, yorick op in urf

Davids Uploader1 votes

If you're good at handling balls, try Orianna. Start off with level 1 Q, then E, then W, maxing Q and you will be unstoppable the entire game

I should also mention Nocturne should be permabanned with how godly he is

AP Gangplank I expected it to be entertaining, but it ended up being... no... Just... no...

PandahHeart1 votes

Lulu Spam Q and W all day. Plus ult is ever 20 secs. I 1v2'd against a Riven and Hecraim. Keep E on them and slow them (or shield self). Polymore who ever dives you. Slow them constantly.

Cindikle1 votes

Annie I've seen them 1v5 with zero problems. KogMaw Puts a lot of hurt down. (Go AP) Swain Hitting level 6 is his God Mode cheat. Zyra Will out zone you. Out damage you. Out CC you.

Tough Guy1 votes

Rumble can bully you all day with spam Q and over heat auto. He can spam shield and take tower hits without losing health. His shield + Rockets makes it easy for him to hunt you down. His ult is 14 seconds which is the best, if not one of the best ults in the game.

Mecha MaIphite1 votes

I would go to say that Malphite is top tier.

Unless your opponents have good reflexes, you have a combo to instantly burst anyone and everyone who gets caught in your ult. When it's on it's 16 second CD, you can still transition into an anti-melee mage with the kiting you get from your Q.

Kingsgrave1 votes

AP Aatrox

His R has no downtime at rank 3 and its a huge 550 range AoE nuke and with LB and Gunblade he does a fuck ton of damage rather quickly. Your E can also permaslow people.

Galiö1 votes

Zyra is great, swain is really good. She and twitch ain't special though.

Siachi1 votes

Trundle is strangely strong in this mode for someone who just out-stats you to death, at least from my experience, especially when he gets some lifesteal and a Triforce, you can't fight him one on one.

And because his pillars are on such a low cooldown and provide a lot of vision, they make surprisingly good scouting tools.

And if all else fails and you can't fight anyone "Lol you thought you had a turret CHOMP SMACK CHOMP SMACK CHOMP SMACK"

EDIT: Also, "Rocket like a Hurricane"Jinx is just kind of silly, though I'm not sure if it's necessarily strong. item 3085

Minidippa1 votes

Warwick pure AP slow start early game but the Q never ends and the sustain can be terrifying. paired with nashor's tooth and rylai's, its OP!
