URF is coming back (presumably next month).

Let's assume that Riot brings back un-tweaked/original URF.

The following is [my] tier list of URF mode.

God Tier (ROFL-CHEESECAKE Banned Tier): refer to the list of banned champions from Riot (including Ryze and Kassadin)

Tier 1 (Extremely-Annoying Tier/Hard-to-deal-with Tier):

  1. Lulu
  2. Karma
  3. *Possibly Zilean considering his new rework
  4. Brand
  5. Zed
  6. Fizz
  7. Vlad
  8. Maokai
  9. LeBlanc
  10. Shaco (RIP DFG, but he's extremely annoying...)
  11. Ezreal
  12. Shen
  13. Evelynn
  14. Galio
  15. AD Malzahar
  16. Taric
  17. Syndra
  18. Urgot

Tier 2 (Annoying-But-Not-As-Annoying-As-Tier-1 Tier):

  1. Wukong
  2. Master Yi
  3. Poppy
  4. AP Malzahar
  5. Ziggs (debatable for Tier 1)
  6. Taric (debatable for Tier 1
  7. Jayce (debatable for Tier 1)
  8. Malphite (RIP DFG...so could be ranked lower now)
  9. Warwick (any build)
  10. Cho'Gath
  11. Twisted Fate
  12. Teemo
  13. Janna
  14. Morgana
  15. Orianna
  16. Nami
  17. Leona
  18. Ahri

Tier 3 (Above Average Tier):

  1. Riven (debatable for Tier 2)
  2. Rengar (debatable for Tier 2)
  3. AP Kog'Maw (debatable for Tier 1 or Tier 2)
  4. Yorick (debatable for Tier 2)
  5. Blitzcrank (debatable for Tier 2)
  6. Thresh (debatable for Tier 2)
  7. Nautilus (debatable for Tier 2)
  8. Swain (debatable for Tier 2 --- remember: he ends his crow form if his maximum Mana does not fulfill his ult mana requirement -- look at his ult description)
  9. Xin Zhao (debatable for Tier 1 or Tier 2)
  10. Ashe
  11. Karthus (debatable for Tier 2)
  12. Gangplank
  13. Akali (debatable for Tier 2)
  14. Katarina (debatable for Tier 2)
  15. Nami
  16. Vel'Koz (debatable for Tier 2)
  17. Viktor
  18. Pantheon (debatable for Tier 2)

Tier 3 (Average Tier):

  1. Everyone non-traditional-ADC champion (i.e., Caster/spell user champions) that has not been mentioned

Tier 3 (ADC-Tier-That-Depends-On-Plays Tier):

  1. Every traditional-ADC champion that relies on outplays and auto attacks (like Vayne) Note: ADC casters like Corki and Graves could be in Tier 2 or Tier 3 since they can spam really annoying spells --- Missiles and Smokescreens...also, Jinx can be really annoying at times; could be in Tier 2 or Tier 3)

Note: I am not ranking champions by how 'strong' they are in URF, per se. I am merely ranking them in terms of 'annoying-ness'. That is what each 'Tier' represents.

Any comments on this list, or any "discrepancies", if you will? I'm open to suggestions or criticisms and comments.

I'm just hoping they do something for Yasuo Rumble as well as make the URF buff remove health costs.

Yasuo and Rumble are the only 2 champions i've found unplayable in the mode.

Rumble due to his overheat mechanic.

Yasuo because he gains 0 benefit from the buff due to his cooldowns working on attack speed.

wow semi automatic invincible gangplank wasn't recognized? i used to tap the QW when i'd play, i was CC imune never had to go back and then i would ult like every 20-30 seconds or whatever the CD was?

it was amusing when ppl were still following the meta, on the later half of urf i was dealing with zed spamming and nid spamming but who cares when u are CC imune and can heal back what they dish out.
