Who are generally stronger; melee or ranged?

Technically both because Draven.
No one, because generally ranged suck without melee. (they would die before they stack mana/ stack rageblade/ get ranged buff). and vise versa, melee generally wont do enough damage again
melee comp still need mage buff or some carry. and vise versa
Ranged. However, a Friend of mine proved last night that Sorcerer Is stronger than both (Depending how you play it)
I won a #1 on pure Sorcerer last night. Beat Noble, Guns, Demons, etc.
If you can get your mana near full at the beginning of a fight, Sorc has the tools to kill anyone before they are a threat.
If you don't, you'll lose hard.
TBH sorc is the strongest comp possible.
but they are pretty easily countered so they arent rampantly everywhere. and given you can spat anyone to sorc for the bonus and they are now way more deadly.
It's not counterable when done correctly, and it is't just making non sorcs sorcs.
The best setup I've had was front line Morgana/Kass with Back line Aurelian Sol, Karthus, Brand, Veigar, Lulu.
Brand had Sorc (Double mana proc), while Karthus had Demon (Double mana proc)
Brand and Karthus with double mana synergies = about 1200 damage a skill globally, and the rate of mana regen is nearly a full bar per 1 attack, with the right other items.
By the time a team eats through Morgana and Kass, Karthus and Brand have already wiped out 5 out of 7 of their team, purely because 1 skill each can kill anything 1-2 Star. The 2 still living have usually been Kayle'd, but there's nothing left to finish killing your sorcs.
