Need help with picking the right champion

Zhypegodx··2 votes·451 views

I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post this ( I'm sorry if it's not ) . So I'm still level 15 and I main Twisted Fate , I've been saving IP to buy a 6.3k champion but I'm really worried because it wasn't super easy to do that and the refund coins are so limited and I don't want to waste them at level 15 tbh. Idk much about "playstyles" and how to match them with heroes but i will tell you some features I've in mind that i would like to have in a champion. 1- High mobility ( doesn't REALLY matter if it's a ranged champion ), 2- Attack range is also an attractive feature to me and finally high burst is something i would like too. I'm not a big fan of jg and support roles and i prefer top and mid lane the most (I know it's like saying i want an assasin champion xD, but a fighter or marksman could actually work for me too). I've some champions in mind like Ahri , Graves and Camille , ekko seems fun too ( Weird combination right? ). Now I've seen some Graves gameplay in top lane and it seemed really interesting but then i found out that it's way better to use him in jg , is that true?. Thx in advance. Feel free to recommend one of the champions i mentioned or just any other champion.

Personally I'd say you're in the right spot Zhypegodx. So you can relax. :3

High mobility, range, AND burst huh? That's not a very common combination. Usually once you get two out of those three you have to give up the third in order to maintain some semblance of balance. I can throw a few suggestions of my own into the ring while letting people with more experience comment on the champions you specifically listed.

Jinx sort of fits all three, as her range with Rocket-Q and W give her a nice bit of zoning potential. Her ultimate sort of serves as burst in the form of heavy execution damage (albeit a bit tricky to land at the proper distance). And when she gets a kill or pops a tower her move speed goes through the roof! So not so much early game mobility but enough to get you of a tricky trade.

Kennen fits the trio-bill as well. Since his Q allows for constant, middle range harassing. He gets a nice little MS steroid for both engaging and escaping. If you want burst...well...if you've ever seen his Ult catch a cluster of enemies off guard then you'll find out quickly why he draws a lot of ire from people. XD

And for good measure I'm going to toss out a vote for Ziggs. He's not hyper mobile, but once you learn how to use his W you can wall hop out of some pretty nasty corners. Range is pretty nice too due to bouncing bomb's extended line range. And then of course the ultimate just blasts anyone unlucky enough to be caught in the impact zone. Plus...you get the one of a kind 'tower burst execution' no other champion in the game has.

I'm sure you'll find someone to your liking though. We're got quite a lot to pick from!

I'd just save IP and play free week champions until 30. Sounds kinda boring but if you find a free week that you really love and do well with, then use your IP there. I wouldn't try and randomly buy one, especially for 6300, and hope it goes well.

Graves does tend to be more of a jungle champion. He has a number of troublesome matchups in the top lane. If you are really uncertain it never hurts to save until they are on free week so you can try them.

Personally I think you would enjoy Ahri, she is relatively easy to pick up and has a lot of room to grow on, I know she was the champ I learned to play on. You will find her auto attacks a bit weak compared to something like TF, but she fits the bill quite well in all the other areas. I am pretty sure she has just as much auto attack range as TF, but slower auto attacks all around and they don't do as much damage.

Oh man definitely save those refunds. I spent all mine early on and regret it still.

I think you might enjoy Kassadin honestly. Top notch mobility with great burst once he gets going, lacks ranged auto attacks, but I find it's made up for with his mobility.

And though he definitely lacks strong mobility, I gotta mention my favorite mage, Vel'Koz. He has awesome ranged capabilities and burst, and with correct placing, you can stay out of harms way.

learn to play sona mid. partially serious joke aside, if you want some mobility fizz, zed and talon are your assassins. They do take quite a while to get used to, but once you learn them you will feed off the tears of whiners in these forums.

Quinn is usually played top (she can be played mid, jungle, and bot too even though it's much harder to do well with her). She's pretty strong early game and if you learn to play her and get ahead, you can burst people down with her combos. She has really good mobility level 6 when she gets her ultimate. She's very AA reliant though, so positioning is super important or you could get bursted down very quickly.
