I like any champ that I feel has to out-think the enemy rather than just have better twitch-reflex mechanical skill or that has to just farm up into a bigger pile of stats than the enemy and faceroll.
is and forever will be, mai waifu. Love everything about her. Her abilities, her upbeat personality, her "I'm about to have a psychotic breakdown" laugh, and her long-range playstyle. She's all skillshots so I never feel like anything I wasn't earned by skill and good aim, but she's more about planning and positioning than twitchy mechanics. Probably helps that I live on the east coast and had gross ping for a long time.
I also like that Lux feels BALANCED. Good damage, godly range, terrible durability, and no mobility. She has very defined strengths and weaknesses. It's how I'd design champions if I was given the chance.
I also enjoy 
when I really want to dominate a game. He feels more strategic than the average faceroll bruiser... since he has to poke you down and pick his time to engage rather than just going ham at the earliest opportunity. I like that he can affect lanes easier than most with his ult and I actually LIKE that he tends to fall off come late game. Again with that silly "champ balance" thing. If I don't get ahead... I'm gonna have a bad time. That's the price I pay for being terrifying early on. He seems fair to me and I like that! Could use a VO on his non dragonslayer skins tho and a slick new VO.
I like 
for teh trololols, the early jungle invades, the mindgames and the fact that he's a freaking insane clown! Am I in the bush by your red buff? Am I ganking bot? Is that me, or the clone? A good shaco game makes you feel like someone's worst nightmare... and it's because YOU knew where to be and what to do.
And... hate me all you want but I like 
. I'll be honest, this one I wasn't 100% on until he got Omega Squad Teemo... which is so darkly awesome that I immediately mained the little monster. I get a chuckle every time I kill someone via ambush or shroom trap and then walk off into the sunset while Teemo states "I don't feel anything...". Chills. But seriously... traps. No other champ really makes use of traps much. Teemo can't fight you 1v1. He can't mash his face on the keys and win. Heck, he can't teamfight worth a crap, really... and he dies FAST. But if you play him SMART... he's infuriating enough that the playerbase has decided he is the dark lord himself.
A lot of the newer, faceroll champs with their huge piles of passives and multi-use over-complicated abilities don't do it for me. I never feel like I got beat by those guys... I just feel like they had more to work with. An answer for every situation. Tons of free stats and game-breaking powers on top of already strong kits. Yasuo already has an infinitely spammable dash and a free shield that he gets FOR spamming his dash... does he really need windwall as well? That's not even mentioning the free crit and armor pen. Tahm gets a button to cockblock any attempt to kill one of his teammates... ok he's a support, that's fine. Does it need to ALSO be a huge nuke that can destroy an enemy too? Does he need to add his health to his damage, so he hurts like hell while being tanky? Does he need hideous sustain from his grey health regen AND the ability to press one button to get it as a shield too? That like... doubles his already high health!
Balls of stats and overloaded kits aren't fun for me. Give me a champ who does something and does it well, and I'll accept that they lack in some other department. Lately champs seems to have fewer and fewer weak spots, or just have skills that do everything possible to prevent their weaknesses from mattering. It makes them VERY binary too. Yasuo against a skillshot-based mage mid? He'll completely ruin the game for them. Yasuo against Annie or Malzahar? Yasuo is probably going to feed. Games should be about PLAYING around your champion's weaknesses not about if you picked the proper champ to auto-win lane against your enemy or not.

'Nuff said
Loved him ever since I picked him up in season 3 (RIP permaslow Q). His lore, voice and art style are some of my favorites in all of League and him being so damn under appreciated makes it even better.
He REALLY misses his kind
Welp, he's a tin can just like Morde but beyond his rumbling voice and gritty visuals lays a champion you can so easily fall in love with. His laugh is just too adorable and his kit just revolves around being a bodyguard and weighing your enemies down.
One of my more recent pickups for top lane. His lore and play style are a big plus but what really seals the deal for me is his voice.
All day every day.
hands down... Too bad she is always ignored/overlooked by riot and she never gets skins nor any type of promotion (videos, even freaking figures) anything. She is my most loved champ but riot's most hated.
From the first time I played her in early season 3 I fell in love instantly. The aggressive, diving assassin playstyle was something that suited my own, and even though she's a mindless kite mage now, she's still my favorite champion.
What would have been Akali for similar reasons turned into Vayne later since Riot's solution to her oppressive state was to gut her and leave her for dead. One of the primary reasons I picked up Vayne was because I liked watching Doublelift bodybag people left and right on stream and during pro games and was inspired to try her.
I just love everything about Nami
Her lore + her design = <3
Lulu has the best laugh in the game and it always cheers me up
PRAISE THE SUN!
: the only way to play this champ and win is to completely troll your opponent. anything else fails.
: don't ask for reasons.
My main toplaner and tied for my favorite champion. Gnar is so fun to play, though to be honest, infuriating to play against, getting 100-0'd against a wall you weren't even close to.
Pretty much the definition of "Keep it simple, stupid," but somehow so fun to play. Straightforward kit and badass skins (Silent Night + DJ) are all this champ needed. Also, the new Mastery system works surprisingly well for her. My go-to support and sometimes my midlaner (it works, trust me[TM]).
.
New player here so i like the easy champs with decision making and/or combos that aren't to hard to pull off IMO. I.E Sion, feels extremely satisfying when i ult right down mid lane, time my shield, and land it right as the q goes off. Lux/Kassadin would be the combos, Kayle/Sion a kind of hybrid, Garen/Amumu is all decision making. IDC about that loser who says Garen is face-mash. He actually takes decent risk reward, because if you 1v5 it does not go well, no matter how skilled you are. Treat him like an assassin but with more tank and less mobility, if you try anything but continuous picks you will get beaten on. These are my For Fun champs, I wouldn't try to take sion or kass in a ranked match, im simply not skilled enough with them. Workin on it though
, probably.
. There is nothing more fun than popping your Q, popping Ghost, and flipping someone, who was halfway across the map from you two seconds ago, to their imminent demise as you smack and bite them to death. Good times.
This champion is the most adorable champion in the game. Hands down. It's like having your adorable little digital puppy that you train and wreck havoc with late game. Especially if you spam ctrl 1 taunt throughout the whole game. Charge! :P
. Coming from previously playing Starcraft (even though I was really young and bad at it) Azir just seemed to grip me the moment he was announced. He's essentially the closest League is going to get to "manage an army" and I absolutely love it. The actual character and personality of Azir is also really cool too.
(both pre and post rework) 
have been long time pleasures, both lore and gameplay wise.

I like the lane-bully play style.
I like being in the middle of a fight.
I love the juggernaut fantasy; hilariously tanks with loads of damage, in exchange for low mobility.
skillshots make you feel better at this game.
I've always fallen in love with nature based characters, especially women
Her rework is excellent and she's very fun to play + the quotes are inspirational
My very first champion purchase
honorable mentions
cough
Was someone when I first played her I really was bad. I would throw spears ok but I did not understand the mark passive and switching to cougar was still somewhat new. When my stupid self read the toolntip for the passive is when I really toke off with her started winning games
