Champions that you find underwhelming.

In my opinion, I wanted to list champs that I feel are underwhelming or underperforming. I feel that they might need changes and need to be looked at.

Singed Singed really doesn't do much. Everyone knows how he plays and what plays he is going to make. A good player will know to never run through his poison trail and his flip can just be avoided by poking. He's a running bot and nothing more.

Syndra Syndra has pretty high mana costs that are pretty devastating early game. Her scatter the weak is pretty easy to predict and to avoid. She also has her low mobility that make her pretty easy to gank as well as her being very item reliant.

Taric Taric is really just outperformed by most of the newer supports. He doesn't have great damage. His CC falls off late game, where he can only stun one person during a team fight, and his heal is outclassed by healing supports. His aoe ability and damage/defense boost help, but he is a relatively weak pick in competitive play.

Poppy While having a great late game, Poppy suffers from not being able to get there most of the time. With a heavy focus and tanky champions with high CC, getting to late game and not being CC locked makes Poppy a very weak pick.

Trundle To me, Trundle isn't that bad. It's just that he can't handle more than one tank on a team at once. With many high HP champions coming into the spotlight, Trundle is having a hard time finding that one tanky champ per team that he needs to focus. He has the damage and the control, but the meta has put him out of favor.

Twitch In my opinion, Twitch has one of the worst early games out of all champions. Late game, he's a powerhouse, but requires the best positioning out of any ADC to make his ult worthwhile. His boxing potential is sub-par and can only deal with enemies one at a time. There are too many supports, ADC's and Junglers that can put Twitch very behind early game, making him a less than ideal pick.

Yorick Last but not least, Yorick. While he isn't bad, his kit really holds him back. It is buggy and really needs an overhaul. While the whole necromancer aspect is cool, he really just needs to be ironed out to be of any use.

Welp, these are my underwhelming champs, what are yours?

Who wants to live in a world where Singed isnt a troll pick?

yorick is a beast in lane, and his ult almost seems like a better version of mordes ghost, since he always gets its guaranteed. you can singlehandedly carry teamfights by ulting your adc and managing his ghost properly.

poppys laning might be underwhelming, but shes a lategame hypercarry. she can literally walk 1v5 into an enemy team and murder whoever she pleases. and her passive is without a doubt the strongest passive in the game.

singed is really damn strong in teamfights, and the ap rework buffed him quite a bit.

syndra will never be irrelevant.she has too much utility for that.

the only one i agree with is taric, and hes looking at a rework. so does yorick by the way.

twitch is brutal with proper coordination with a team.

As I said, they aren't bad, they just have problems getting to late game or have problems getting to their chosen targets.

I agree Twitch is great with coordination and communication, but you don't find that in normals so he's a relatively weak pick.

Singed is alright if you like playing a running simulator.

In my opinion, she isn't that bad, she just isn't queen of the jungle anymore.

She's literally considered the worst champion in League. Consistently since her nerfs, and the community clamors for her buffs.

She was Olaf'd harder than Olaf and stayed that way (until about now, a long time later, where they are giving her slight buffs)
