Hardest champion to tower dive?

Just a fun little thread :) Title explains it all. Personally, I love when people tower dive me as mundo, because I can just slow and kite them with ult.

A Tank would be the worst possible archetype to dive. Not tanky DPS fighters, but solid, CC heavy initiator/lock-down tanks. Amumu Leona Maokai JarvanIV Alistar Galio

As a tank, they extend the dive time needed through just being able to take a lot of hits. Through CC/terraforming, the extend the dive time even further by incapacitating their pursuers under the tower. Also, as the initiator for their team, they want to get focused while their team capitalizes on them being focused. If their team is anywhere reasonably close, you can easily throw a game by giving away a free initiation on the enemy team's tank.

I'd probably go with Galio as the single dumbest champion to dive though. All his weaknesses revolve around him needing to burn flash to make the most of his ult's initiation potential, giving him the full benefit of 50% DR and a 2 second silence/taunt likely with the +40% ult damage bonus. It's just not smart to hand him a free initiation on a silver platter.

Malzahar post 6. You get ulted and just die instantly.

Heimerdinger Worst-case scenario, you're diving far more turrets than anyone should consider safe.

I love it when I'm playing a champion that's underestimated a lot and the enemy dives me. Nautilus auto attack stuns them, tower kills them Aatrox I die, then come back and they die

Hi, let me ult for a bunch of extra health, wither you so you can't do anything, and shred your armor so the tower hits even harder. Nasus

Urgot What's worse than being suppressed under tower? Being suppressed under tower, teleported closer to the tower, being slowed, and having your (Now bulkier) dive target standing directly in the path to safety. (Anyone who says Urgot is literally useless has probably never been hit by a Noxian Corrosive Charge.)

Malzahar : Probably the worst possible champion to dive if he has his ult up. Even if he doesn't, the silence on his Q can really ruin your dive. It can keep you from using the ability you needed to finish him off, or worse, escape from what you realize is a failed dive.

Annie : If you even think she's close to having her stun up, don't dive her. She will pour metric tons of damage on you and walk away, leaving you to die stunned under the tower.

I'll put a different one out here... I would say Leona, but Morg's binding is enough to make anybody go play cookie clicker in an effort to wait the respawn time from a very silly dive.

Have only seen 1 Tryndamere . Post 6, you can't kill him for 5 seconds, and he has his e to dash away, and a q to heal a bit.

Swain, especially at/past level 6, is not easily tower-dived.

Irelia 's super high up there. She's tanky, has a targeted CC, tenacity and can heal. It's just generally not a good idea to towerdive her unless you hugely outnumber her due to how hard it is to finish her off.

Definately a LeonaLeona ... I remember getting tower dived at a bar of health in a ranked game as Leona. the ADCs had killed each other us supports were both low... enemy jungler warrick came around behind the turret to dive me.. I stun him before he has a chance to Q. I then walk around the turret. the enemy support Taric sees this happening and tries to help Warrick.. but allows me to get in range to Q him getting away from Warrick who dies to the turret. I then stun Taric who then dies from another shot from the turret. bamn double kill.
