List of Team Comps (VERY WIP, ANY EXTRA INFO IS WELCOMED)

So with the new champ select coming soon I figured that in some lobbies people would actually try to make a comp in pre-game. Only problem with that is some people aren't entirely sure what each one is, which champions to pick when playing said comp, etc. I know a list like this would help me out a ton back when I first started to learn about comps, so why not try and get it out there in the hope for it to reach others who might be in the same spot I was. The list isnt ranked in anyway, just in the order I thought of them. Dont hesitate to tell me if I made a mistake or left off a comp, or to suggest improvements. Im Silver 5 its pretty safe to say that I dont know everything about the game. My suggested picks for each comp are not by any means the only ones you can play, just the ones I think of when I think about said comp.

Pick Description: A comp focused on eliminating 1 target at a time, generally by CCing and bursting to death an out of place enemy. Champions who work well in these kinds of comps have great cc abilities. Examples of Good Picks: Blitzcrank Thresh Lux Morgana Nautilus Malzahar Warwick Examples of Counter picks: TahmKench Janna Morgana Kindred Olaf

Splitpush This comp focuses on getting ahead and using that lead to split push constantly during mid and late game. This comp is mostly made up of AD champions with huge snowball potential and good waveclear and/or duelist abilities, however their are a few AP and Tank champions that can be used in this comp as well. Examples of Good Picks: Tryndamere Nasus Azir Fiora Zed Olaf Example of Counter Picks: Heimerdinger

Global This comp uses global abilities to control the map. Once they hit level 6, they basically have global pressure everywhere on the map with their ults and summoner 12 summoner spell. A 1v1 fight top lane can quickly turn into a 1v2 - 1v5 in an instant. While almost any champion can be used in this comp due to Teleport, generally champions with global ult abilities work better because it is what they were made for. However, a good early game team can set this comp behind, because if they are behind there is less of a chance you will get of a tp/ult to becoming your way. Also Champions with strong disengage can leave a global comp out of luck with summoner spells and ultimates wasted, which have very long cooldowns Examples of Good Picks:Nocturne TwistedFate Pantheon RekSai Gangplank TahmKench Examples of Good Counterpicks: Nunu Leblanc LeeSin TahmKench

Poke This comp uses long ranged abilities to deal damage while remaining a distance away from the enemy team. They are weak to dives and hard engage, but strong against teams made up of mostly immobile and melee champions. Examples of Good Picks: Varus Ziggs Xerath LuxVelkoz Nidalee Examples of Counter Picks: Zed Yasuo Amumu Kindred Soraka

Siege This comp focuses on grouping up and using a mixture of zoning and pushing power to take towers by force. If Split Push and Poke comps had a child, this would be the result. Examples of Good Picks: Tristana Azir Veigar Lux Heimerdinger Examples of Counter Picks: Heimerdinger Azir Janna

Protect the Carry Comp More commonly known as Protect the Kog'Maw, this comp involves keeping your 1-2 late game hypercarries alive. This comp can be very strong if the protected champion or champions get ahead, but is not going to win if the protected champion(s) dont get ahead. Examples of Good Picks: KogMaw Cassiopeia Vayne Lulu TahmKench Kayle Examples of Counter Picks: Leblanc MissFortune Galio Brand Lucian

Dive A dive comp is where 2-3 member of a team dive a cetain enemy champion under a turret or near other teamates. While this comp is good against squishyier teams, teams with more tanks or with multitarget or aoe CC will be more than happy to stop your dive and get a double kill. Examples of Good Picks: Aatrox LeeSin Nocturne Shen Skarner Zac Examples of Counter Picks: Galio Heimerdinger Kindred Lissandra Lux Morgana

AOE AOE(Area of effect) comps are comprised of AOE CC abilities in order to lockdown as many enemy champions as possible and then deal massive ammounts of damage. These comps rely on hard engage, and multiple forms of AOE CC. Examples of Good Picks: Amumu Sejuani Orianna Kennen Kalista Malphite Yasuo Examples of Counter Picks: Kindred Morgana TahmKench Janna Olaf

again, feel free to add extra information for me to use to update this list. Whether I missed some team comps or forgot some crucial information on some comps I have listed (which I probably did both).

these are... weird? They wouldnt work at all as real teamcomps. but its cool to imagine what they'd do in team fights.

I'm pretty sure these are just examples of champions that would fit in those comps and not actual team comps

Karthus should be included in the global one.

I mean there are various "niche" comps I could go into, but I've seen the Speed comp played a fair amount (esp by SKT) Lulu and Sivir are used to catch someone in small windows of mispositioning, then rotate to sieze an objective. While its weaknesses aren't particularly exploitable, its advantages are mostly limited to its catch potential, and is very difficult to execute, especially in the late game
