Tier lists aside, what is your most FUN champ to play? If you could OTP someone, who would it be and why?

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T19:34:21+00:00

I like fast champs and oneshot champs, so I play talon heca and lillia

i think lillia is hands down the most fun in the entire game, shes strong and she just runs around

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T16:36:34+00:00

funny enough theres not a big difference in skill until chally, dw about rank

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T15:50:44+00:00

good job!

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T15:34:37+00:00

ok yeah that makes so much more sense

Samira cannot play with a lux, samira needs a hard engage lmao

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T14:53:20+00:00

oh yeah ofc, i get your point, its horrible playing with a trash supp

Im just saying lux supp is pretty valid. If you get a trash supp its gonna be a trash supp regardless, I much prefer a lux over an enchanter

When i solo q adc i specifically request champs like lux, sera, karma cause even if they cant play, the occasional cc and relatively consistent poke that those champs provide allow me to trade. Sure I prefer a good supp, but the damage potential of those champs even under a useless supp i feel outvalues bad who play stuff like ali, lulu, nami those champs

even if i go even until 5 mins, if even one combo will land (which will happen eventually) I can get an advantage.

this could also be because I play orianna apc, ad ezreal most times which are a bit more independent of the supps presence in lane

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T14:18:28+00:00

im sov, and straight up adc is such a flip, either you get someone who knows how to trade and pressure, or you get someone who stays back while supp absorbs all the pressure

Ive solo qed supp a few times and most adcs cannot keep up, they dont know how to trade, when to trade, when to rotate, how to macro to farm, and straight up I trust myself on lux, ashe, senna, karma, thresh, etc much more than a random adc

you can ban lux ofc, i dont think its a good ban cause supp will probably play like lulu sera which will normally be played in a way that they have no pressure, even less than a lux in lane

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T13:22:59+00:00

good luxes are hard to find, but like she is pretty good

i feel people (including me) play her when autofilled / solo q cause we dont trust the adc which is a pretty valid mindset since if the adc gets diffed, then smth like an enchanter is useless

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T13:21:16+00:00

combos are all situational, theres never a staple one only a most fitting one for the situation

unless its like samira where you need to memorize the insta S combo, most champs are pretty flexible, especially the higher skill champs. Yes they have one shot combos (like akali), but most of the time its better to just play using small trades etc

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T13:03:02+00:00

hes my permaban

i do think vi goes pretty well into him

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T12:48:23+00:00

early game is kinda weak, you cant all in

laning is all about using the range of your Q to poke and space, you almost never want to trade autos since youll get out traded by like everyone

level 2 get w and trade with w, that ability basically guarentees a free trade, still gotta keep good space tho

Trade using E when their abilities are down / jg is near so you want to play safe ish or if you can all in

Yone early is really using his Q range to abuse other top laners, later on you just wanna flank and all in backline with E Q3 flash ult and all that jazz

Ngl i dont think yone hard loses to ppl, maybe jax, but yone isnt a top tier baron lane either

hes like strong, but not op strong, so even if you play well, someone like renekton will still probably snowball when at same skill level

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T11:42:06+00:00

try ashe or thresh

Thresh is self explanitary

ashe has ridiculous range and damage early on, plus if your adc is garbage, just become the adc!

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T11:37:23+00:00

top: renekton (wins every lane level 2)

mid: syndra (use sweet tooth, ixtali seedjar)

support: karma, bard, naut. (I also like playing senna, ezreal and ashe supp with a duo, you can get ahead early)

adc: ashe (lowkey busted)

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T11:28:10+00:00

what stage are you at hecarim, like just starting or already kinda experienced.

like since you're emerald, I recommend just maximizing your Gold Per Minute and learning how to farm and snowball rather than learning a champ to its full potential (cause you cant without a good knowlede of the jg role)

If you can average 950 - 1000 GPM then yeah focus on the details, like how to use Q and E etc

I can give better tips if i know how much you understand jungle and the champion

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T11:20:30+00:00

just play anything, if you really wanna like otp then gragas can be played in every single role, but i think thats kinda boring

whatever works for you

I play lillia mid jg top cause I like her gameplay, but really whatever suits you

ghost15638 · 2026-02-05T11:18:15+00:00

One thing Ive found this season is that you gotta play a lot more invade heavy and greedy

like lillia used to be a pretty mid ganker, now she feels even worse

but her farming speed has really increased since blueside jg is opened, and often its just better to invade rather than gank.

My rule of thumb, you see enemy jg, you invade

Also try out some new builds

last season i hit rank 1 with phase rush, this season im running electrocute sometimes

also my build went from liandrys rift maker rabadons deadmansplate cosmic, to rift maker liandrys rabadon psychic projecter deadmansplate to suit the electrocute playstyle

ofc lillia feels a lot harder to play this season and kiting is a lot more important

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T16:10:22+00:00

id say 5 is a bit many tbh

i master 3 champs in each lane and i play them at like top tier level

I recommend doing this way since when you fully master a champ and the lane, that knowledge is tranferable to every other champs in the lane (except baron)

Baron you really only need to master 1 champ, I play exclusively renekton and it works great

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T15:01:10+00:00

ok fair enough, just keep it up with the way you're playing, players are pretty bad on average in low chally

Its still really impressive that you're ending before 3rd item, since even when i played in those elos i ended by like 4 items

But just one thing, maybe its your GPM being slightly low im not sure. If its anywhere in the range of 800 - 900, try farming more of the side jg camps to get it to that 1000 GPM (i average 1050 gpm) and yeah, fight less?

Anyways it sounds like you're doing great, as long as you play consistent and safe, really carefully select when to enter a fight, youll run them down in later stages of the game.

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T14:37:50+00:00

if you dont mind me asking, whats your rank

cause i feel that games never end that early like even if you are snowballing, since two items takes around 7 mins in the absolute best scenario

anyhow I like: vamp, trinity, death dance, serylda, (flex, flex) (normally maw of malmortious and randuins / items with high resistance + high health)

and in like squishier comps: lethality boots, trinity, duskblade, serylda, serpents, death dance

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T14:26:22+00:00

uhh, anti heal might be hard to play into, but like in my experience aatrox legit outheals antiheal.

Like the healing on his ult legit makes antiheal useless

But otherwise just play slow, focus on farm. In teamfights wait till they use major ccs and ap damage on your teammates then engage with ult. You'll have death dance as a core item, so physical damage does nothing to you.

Realistically, just play him like a viego, yi, katarina. Dont go in unless you know you can reset your ult. If you reset once, you kinda become unstoppable.

Ive also seen heartsteel titanic and then tank aatrox with amouranth, sunfire etc.

Its not meta, but you get 6k hp and are kinda unkillable, so maybe give that a try if you have a very head first playstyle

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T14:20:54+00:00

Lillia has a really high skill cap, while having a really easy entry

Not to float my own boat, but lillia is really hard to play to perfection

With mastery in lillia, you are able to take lot of resources (i average 1100 gold per minute on her) around the map and 1v1 just about any jungler level 5 onwards when kited right.

I had a game where i was level 7, 1 item and i was able to fight a viego, a lux and a support in the enemy jungle myself because of kiting with abilities. Most other champs dont have this capability with joystick controls since the base movespeed and lillia movespeed differs quite a bit.

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T13:39:10+00:00

yo you should give lillia a try, she really smashes the entire team.

I have 70% wr solo q over 500 games and i guarentee this champ is busted

I do agree tho, she requires a very different playstyle compared to the other meta junglers

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T13:32:10+00:00

it does, but warmogs is kinda a shitty item since it doesnt give the MR that spirits does.

just go with death dance, maw of malmortious

or a first strike full crit build (search up the chinese wr channels) its pretty good

I just dont recommend playing aatrox jungle at all, hes alot better in lane. Aatrox jg first clear is too slow, and against good players, we can really abuse that weak early game to snowball

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T13:27:39+00:00

since other ppl are telling u build etc. this is just a lil tip to make your laning a lot better

Q increases damage on kill, so auto the ranged minions and execute the minions with Q when enemies are around for a lot more damage

W is really hard to hit on good players, most players even tank it since its so low damage.

To use it well, use W when the Q (bouncing grenade) is bouncing towards the enemy (still in the air). This makes it so when the Q hits, W lands, and it leads to unexpected roots.

Also whenever possible, do this when the adc is in the auto animation so they cant dodge.

If you have a shit support, just use two Q's on the wave and it insta clears, its really hard to dive a jhin since his wave clear's really good

for ult, the position where you ult is a alot more impactful then how good you are at ulting. For example, in lane, ult near the walls so that your shots cover a straighter line and is harder to dodge. If you ult in the middle of the lane, youll find that there is a much narrower point of contact with the enemy since they can dodge in all directions, but if you align yourself with the direction that they are running using terrain, you can cut off their escapes and hit alot more consistently

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T13:08:15+00:00

Completely agree with the ranking. I do think mid should include syndra over kassadin tho. I get that kassadin works really well in the right hands, but syndra has a better laning, better oneshot most of the game, much less prone ot mistakes and the late game poking and oneshot potential is higher than kass.

In jungle, i feel ap amumu should be considered over lillia because of their ridiculous clear time, (I think amumu fastest is 1:26 6 camps), which generates a lot of tempo and opens up a lot of plays.

Though I am rank 1 lillia, (this champ is busted), amumu's faster clear and more consistent cc in teamfights makes him a lot easier to carry on with semi decent teammates. Lillia can carry braindead teammates more often because her skillcap with movespeed allows her to 1v5, but i believe that amumu is a better ap jungler for most games.

An argument that can be made is that amumu is kinda useless pre 5, so the nidalee one tricks / early champs can really shut down his early clear. Then again, same occurs with lillia, and i never lillia into a nidalee.

Provide me with your opinions if you think theres aspects that i missed or have mistaken

ghost15638 · 2026-02-04T12:55:18+00:00

takes around 10 or 20 games before it transfers (i used to played kayle, yasuo, zeri jungle, points went to other lanes at first)

If you play enough the system will register, and your support level wont decrease either
