TFW you realize that all the most played champions...

...are also the most cancer AND the most tryhards.

YasuoLeeSinVayneThreshJinxZedLucianBlitzcrank are the most played champions in order. Quite frankly i'm surprised that Yasuo is THE most played champion considering he's almost always perma-banned.

I don't consider ThreshJinxLucian to be cancer or tryhard champions, but i still listed them since they were amongst the most played champions. Although Thresh has often been considered THE best support in the game (beside meta abusers).

As for the other champions.... can anyone say they enjoy seeing them in their game? I personnaly hate seeing them on the enemy side, and hate seeing them on my team even more. These champions are either loved (by those who play them) or hated, there is no gray zone.

Also, most of the time, players that main any of those champs, also happen to main other champs on this list. I've stopped counting the numbers of time i would check a Yasuo main profile, only to see that they also play Lee Sin and Zed.

While i know that meta abusers (looking at you item 3504 supports) can be considered more cancer, their state changes with the meta. But the above champions are all-around cancer to play with and against.

So what's up with that? From my quick and unprofessional analysis, it seems that the LoL player base is split into two kinds of players:

-Those that only play tryhard champions, and have their champion pool limited to those.

-All the others that have a varied champion pool.

Please correct me if i'm wrong.

I don't see blitz as tryhard. I thought he was the fun support for people that got autofilled?

i loved playing with ARDENT before it was an abusing item , so i do not consider myself an abuser of Ardent because i played the whole year like it. but i was not abusing it quite that much as i switched to jungle when kayn came out

I mean sure you could get everyone to play Garen and Malzahar, but these listed champions are simply the most fun ones to play

I call BS on that.

Jhin - He's not abused, he is just the most fun ADC. I just like him. I have not seen in ages. Yes SOME people do really enjoy Jhin. But so many others were playing him because he was meta.

LeeSin - He's not strong. He has a weak lategame. I play him because he is fun even though he sucks!! Except now I have not seen him in ages. People were only playing him because he was doing good.

All this "fun" excuse for most people just means the champ is winning a lot right then.

playing mechanical champions is cancer, we should all play annie and malzahar I agree

The mechanical part of these champions isn't what makes them cancer.

Play vs a GOOD Lee Sin, and he'll just ruin all the fun out of the game for you.

Play with a BAD Vayne, and you feel live you have to spoonfeed her otherwise she's just a glorified caster minion.

Most of these champions have these polarized gameplay that makes you hate playing with them and hate playing against them.

On the other side, pick Veigar, even a bad Veigar can still pull his weight with a well placed stunbox. Can a bad Vayne pull her weight? Nope, they basically turn the match into a 4v5.

Also i don't complain about how strong these champions are, sometimes they fall off meta, and other times they shine. I find Yasuo annoying, yet i still win most of the time against him. It's just that these champions have a tendancy to leave a bitter sensation to those that play with or against them.

Oh, I (and a lot of the forum) had a problem when Lee Sin was in 60%+ of games. Even if that wasn't his pickrate, you essentially saw one every 2/3 games. But people always said "he is fun." Such BS now that he has fallen out, hardly anyone is playing x "fun"champ.

Eh, it is just that the gray zone people aren't as vocal.

The only one I really mind playing agains't on that list is Zed, and he isn't THAT bad. My second least favorite to play against is Draven (who isn't on your list), but that is just in lane when I am supporting.
