Tøys·Jul 17, 2015·1 votes·569 views

Hi, Dear fellow summoners I have a task for you and that is finding me a main. I know people say that you dont find your main it finds you and i want you guys to help that champion find me. I always wanted to main a champion i want to be a one trick pony i want to be know as the best at a champion the 1st step is finding a main. First of all is what I like I like to play every role and I like champions that have unique mechanics and are HARD to master. I like both ad and ap and i also look them to have an escape. Also I want the champion to be some what under played and not banned. Melee or ranged dosent matter. I want to deal damage and be a play maker. I want it to have great outplay potentional and the abilitty to hard carry. Please help me find my right fit,. Sincerly, TibbyMan

no champion has the ability to "hard carry"
no champion is "a play maker"
no champion has "outplay potential"
all champions are SOMEWHAT equally "hard to master" ofcourse with some differences but not big ones.

if you cut these points, you want a champ who has unique mechanics and an escape. thats pretty hard, because almost all champions with an escape have similar mechanics due to them all being designed by kids who like jumps.

now, for a champion who has absolutely unique mechanics and can be played in various roles, even tho he has no "escape" so that makes him actually "hard to master" in a sense, is fiddlesticks.

i hereby recommend fiddlesticks to you.

4 really?? i can tell you never played cho gath or annie

Flying BuntcakeJul 17, 20151 votes

Or LISSANDRA

3tysonJul 17, 20151 votes

every champ is somewhat equallly hard to master LOL

is lisandra also that easy to play ??? or is she really hard ?? i remember the first time i played cho gath i didnt really expect to do good on such a dull champ ( he doesn have a single gap closer at all )

than i noticed no matter howmany last hits i kept on missing his incredibly sustain made me dominate lane and once i got some ap item 1026 i farming became so easy that i ended up having the most cs of the entire game

wich really says somethingg since i main jungle and if not pref sub or a champ like heimi to avoid csing cause i always fall behind csing

Lissandra takes skill to learn how to stay in lane with her mana costs, while also poking the enemy out of lane. She is relatively medium hard to play.

tell me about it. im really curious what someone with 3 annie and 2 chogath games has to say about this topic.

3tysonJul 17, 20151 votes

your dumb ass point 4 says enough

all champs are far from somewhat equall hard to master

theres champs like lee sin or nidalee wich requires somewhat mechanics than there is champs like cho gath with incredibly easy to hit skilshots or annie wich also incredibly easy to play or maybe vlad wich also easy as fuck

you cant really say something as stupid as that and than expect to be taken seriouse

theres champs wich have a higher skilcap than others like draven or vayne theres champs who requires somewhat perfect positioning cause else their death

than theres champs with a shitload of ascapes so they have plenty of room for error

AyRe CoNteMpTJul 17, 20151 votes

hmm i must admit, i dont quite understand your logic.

so you say champions with escapes are easier to play because they have more room for error. i mean, thats simple logic, i understand that. but then you list some champions like lee sin and nidalee and vayne who have incredible escapes and peel/self-peel abilities and are generally some of the hardest to kill champions in the game, and you call them hard/high skillcap.

also, could you explain to me why faker, who we can arguably call the mechanically best player in the world, is so good? what makes his mechanics so good? is it because he can press buttons fast, or why is it?

3tysonJul 17, 20151 votes

Because hes faker

not every champ with a gap closer is easy and not every without is hard im just saying their different

there are champs that are harder to play than other

and there are champs that are harder to master

Theres point and click abilitys wich are often easier to hit than skilshots

theres skilshots with whide range wich are easier to hit than slimm ones

and therr are delayed wiich are often harder to hit than instant

Than there are things like knowing the game wich will make you better in every champ in general for example if you have map awarness you know how to last hit when to push when to take objectives and you know all these things

you will be allot better than someone who doesnt know

but you might still have huge problems playing a specific champ

well, i think the mechanical difficulty in league is very low and basically everyone with two functional hands can easily have faker-mechanics when looking at the speed of pressing buttons alone. in warcraft 3, many players had 200+ apm (actions per minute) including myself and in league its like, you got nothing to do really. in warcraft (or starcraft) apm spikes to 600-1000 per minute during combat, in league combat it barely spikes because well, you have like 3 buttons to press. every kid can do it.

what makes faker so unique is his gamesense and knowledge so he doesnt just press buttons but he actually uses his strengths at exactly the time and place he wants to use them, THAT is what makes him mechanically proficient, and not that he can swap zeds shadows around fast.

like, this "legendary faker zed" video where he completely obliterates someone in a zed mirror duel clearly shows that he actually doesnt react to the enemy movements but rather predicts them. he doesnt flash the shuriken, he flashes in the moment that his enemy would have to throw his shuriken in order to kill him so if he throws them, they get dodged and if he doesnt throw them, he still loses the duel. this is gamesense and this leads to good mechanics. its not that faker has some sort of super human reaction timing, even tho this surely helps too.

"mechanical difficulty" doesnt really exist in league. thats why basically all champions are equally hard to play, even tho there are some differences but they are not very grave. and sure, for some people, some champions might be harder than others simply by not being their style or type or preference. for me, rengar is super hard to play. i suck with him so bad it ashames me, but i wouldnt say rengar is an incredibly hard to play champion.

also, i agree on the point that champions who forgive mistakes more easily are generally easier to play by a bit. for me, those champions do ACTUALLY include nidalee, lee sin, zed, fizz and the likes. they are a BIT easier to play.

Stopped reading whrre you said everyone with 2 hands can have faker mechanics Explain to me why faker is a god and you are you

AyRe CoNteMpTJul 17, 20151 votes

i did but you stopped reading

Lets use Lissandra as an example.

Lissandra can carry games with her assassination potential and kiting. Lissandra can use her e in many interesting ways to get behind the enemy team and ult someone. Lissandra is weak to someone who outpokes/outranges her.

Flying BuntcakeJul 17, 20151 votes

Lissandra has the skills. Lissandra has the escapes. Lissandra q has a learning curve. Lissandra is underplayed. Lissandra makes all the plays with her e. Lissandra is the best.

id go with Yasuo , although he is probably one of the hardest champions to succeed on (especially in ranked) once you learn him you can be very dominant, I would say over 90% of games i play i kill my laner before 6, and around 30% of games i kill them at level 2. Yasuo has plenty of unique mechanics, like how is q is basically an auto attack skillshot, an under half a second cool down ability, a w that blocks projectiles (unique besides braum) and also a r that is conditional, the only conditional ult in the game. also he has 2 abilities that stack, which means that if you play aggresively and succeed, you will be greatly rewarded. He isnt THAT underplayed, but i cant remember the last time I have seen him banned. He is yasuo sooo, he can DEFINATELY outplay people, I once killed a 7-2 zed as a 1-4 yasuo and went on to solo carry comeback the game. and he is one of the hardest solo carry champions in the game because of the fact that he can LITERALLY 1v2, 1v3, 1v4, AND EVEN 1v5 (happens sometimes) when fed. He doesnt have the BEST escape but that is only because his e can not be used on minions, however you can outplay a gank by dashing to the enemies caster minions by the tower, then dashing through the enemies to your tower, plus if you have 2-3 kills and the jungler isnt super fed you can easily 1v2 if you play it right (it has happened more times than i can count) he also is INCREDIBLY fun, and i have over 1000 games played and i still dont get bored when playing him. he also has the benifit of playing in literally every role, jg is actually REALLY good with sated, mid (obvious reasons), top (ditto mid), and as an adc if he survives the early game he does really well, and you can support with him if you want a hard kill lane. sorry for rambling, i love yasuo XD
