Finding a Champion to Main

Baogao·1/31/2015, 8:51:06 PM·1 votes·4,883 views

I've been trying to find a champion to main but I get bored of most champions. The skills I'm looking for in a champ are:

Has an escape to survive ganks/getting caught out Can carry a team (Not a support or someone that falls off) Spells and some skill shots like Talon (Not like Tryndamere/Yi AA only) Not too squishy Doesn't get boring after hundreds of games or can make plays (LeBlanc/Zed) Isn't mana hungry (Swain)

I know my expectations are high but if I could get an idea of a champion that has most of these attributes I would greatly appreciate it.

When I first started, I always looked for the most damage, but try some other roles. Garen doesn't do the most damage, but tanks through your foes damage, being able to kill a lot of champions.I personally like Rengar .

Jayce is highly versatile. Ranged, Melee, slows, High damage, his gate boosts movement speed, he has a slow, but uses mana. normally people get Archangels staff to help, but you always need to conserve mana, and not waste it. I start, unlike almost every other jayce (I'm not a very good jayce) with item 3508 Essence Reaver, so I get AD and help restore mana with basic attacks, so i don't have to start with just mana or just AD, howevver, it does slow my final build down somewhat. normally in games you dont get full builds though, so it's all preference.

GNAR!

You can try TF. His playstyle can be exciting due to his ult ganks.

Me being a Skarner main, I may be baised... But I've had more fun and success with Skarner than anyone. Try him out. :D

It's hard to escape a lot of the time. Try to be more wary of your surroundings with wards instead, and make sure to get boots, maybe with the alacrity enchantment, and if you really want, movement speed mastery to give you +1.5% movement speed.

As I said, try to be wary so you don't have to escape, and boost your movement speed. Kalista has good kiting and damage skills.

Many resourceless champions fit your bill.

Lee Sin, Gnar.

I would recommend Rengar, to be honest. Nidalee fits what you're looking for. Sion. Vi.

lol there is no champ in the game that does carry level damage, has escapes, isn't squishy, doesn't need mana and has skillshots, while not being something that you already said you didn't like.

What I did was create a general rune page for every lane: top, mid, bot adc, bot support, jungle. Then I wrote on a word doc three champs, per lane, I do well w/ that I want to main. Third, I practice w/ only those champs. Even if you perform badly, over time you'll still become really good w/ those specific champs rather than shooting all over the place.

For example, my three main mid laners are: Katarina, Malzahar, Galio. I'm pretty much pro w/ Kat and Malz now, but Galio I need more practice. This gives me the opportunity to work whatever mid for any occasion in the offset the opponents ban Kat, pick Malz, and Galio is left wide open. In the rare instance all three are picked or banned, I simply ask to go to another lane which I have three picks to choose from. This cuts down on inconsistent losses and my win rate has gone up ever since I started this.

Why not just play nidalee?

Viktor doesnt need escapes and if someone jumps on him its easy to throw your stun under you and run away as your smiting them with your death ray

If you want to win alot, don't main a champion... unless it's Lee Win.

Azir Riven Gnar Rengar Renekton Khazix Nidalee

Based on your criteria I'm guessing you mainly play mid/top lane?

Jalkan2/1/2015, 7:00:29 PM1 votes

Pfft, Skarner destroys teams. All he needs is one item 3025 or item 3078 and he can build full tank while still dishing out damage to their carries and tanks. But if you don't like him, then I suggest Trundle .

Gnar fits all of ur descriptions, and so does riven. If you want to carry easy mode though, just learn jax.

a champ more then likely don't have everything. if u wanna set up plays its like a cc champ. usualy cc champs lack atk speed or burst dmg and tend to be squishy. if u want a asasin champ they usualy lack cc. if u want a sustain champ they usually lack burst dmgm at most continues dmg or min cc.

Raxicor2/2/2015, 10:53:54 PM1 votes

I would suggest trying Riven. You need an early kill to snowball but you sound like you want an aggressive pick anyway.

You really want to get good? Don't main a champ. Just spend time getting good with a champ for a few days, then move on to another.

Seeing all the different playstyles really improves your ability in the game.

Ezreal, so much fun to use and his e is basically a free flash and his poke is insanely good.

Give Wukong a shot. He's been my most played champ for both Season 3 and 4, and I already have most of my Season 5 games on him. I primarily jungle with him, but I'm also comfortable playing him mid and top. With a little armor penetration Cyclone can turn teamfights on its own, and you'll be uncatchable once you master Decoy jukes. Between Q and E you can take down towers extremely fast, and a lane Wukong with Tiamat is a huge threat if you leave him alone to push. I personally find him fun and whenever I play him it feels like I'm seeing an old friend. He was one of the first 6300 champs I ever bought (back when he was that much) and I've never not enjoyed playing him.

Would help if you tell what your main role is so could suggest a champ that goes with that role
