LoL veterans, which were the most OP champions, and which were the most useless champions on release

As title says. I only started playing since Rek'Sai release, and the two I can think of is release Camille and one patch where Xin Zhao would heal insane amounts ridiculously fast.

Eve was both. At first she was utterly useless to joke character status. Then they reworked her, and she could 100-0 your whole team while remaining intargetable.

No, Eve was at first pretty strong, then they purposely dumpstered her (stunning from stealth is OP, who knew?) to near uselessness, then they (eventually) reworked her.

Draven Darius you should have seen the outcry and hatred for CertainlyT

Didn't draven have the bleed passive as well ? and I thought darius was only busted after the juggernaut rework.

Darius was insane pre-rework and for like 1-2 patches post-rework. After that he started turning reasonable.

Draven's passive used to straight up give him more damage. He was beyond OP and would instakill just about everything.

Darius, well. It was a different time. Less mobility, less damage. Darius could and would get to you if you weren't careful, and his instant Q would punish you for the slightest misposition. Not to mention his overall damage was way overtuned on release, and his E would suck you back in even if you dashed out of it.

Ezreal is pretty OP. That man can do anything. Mhmmm :)

Lux was pretty bad on release. They had to redo her splash art to incorporate make up because she was so ugly and her neck was weird.

Zyra rivals Xin when it comes to OPness upon release. Zyra was hotfixed nerfs to help tone her down

Yorick was considered bad upon release, as was Riven. I think they both got hotfixed buffs (Riven definitely, can't remember with Yorick).
