So, I've decided that a certain group of champs are trash and if I have more than one of certain parts of this group on my team I leave queue, so outleagued by others who can do the same job so, so much easier and better based on my experiences.
Alistar, Taric, Galio<Amumu, best tank imo by far and then, any of the other tanks do better than I've seen those two
Udyr, Olaf<Xin, Yi, Jarv, etc. udyr just...yeah, he's great if he's fed, but if you make a char with zero abilities and give it best in slot gear it will be a monster, so w/e. Olaf...maybe I've only seen bad ones, but I've either been "wtf, man" when they're on my team or crushed him beneath my tiny feets(been teemo and Kennen a lot lately)
Karthus, Cass, Malzahar<Ryze, Vlad, Annie. As I've said before, I think "hard" just means "way too hard to execute the same things an easy can do faster and harder.
I've seen one godlike Karthus who had mindreading powers with Lay Waste, but otherwise I see free kills on almost any champ, and while I've seen a couple of good Cassio*cough*s I'm confident those same players could pick up any of the 3 I mentioned above and rock way harder. It's a serious pain in the ass to land her attacks besides the horribly weak poison one, and they're not very strong anyway.
They're super cheap, so I was able to harass and hold a lane against a Leblanc and the timidest Warwick I've ever seen almost indefinately, but the damage...and the range on her ult, wtf melee range? and if they're running away it only slows them instead of the measly 150 damage and sweet 2 second stun...huh.
Malzahar, people on the forums seem to QQ about him somewhat regularly, but I have not seen the same ones they have apparently, and I...well, fail miserably at landing his skillshot, so whatever, but at least his ult kicks crazy amounts of ass I guess. Maybe when I hit 30 I'll be awed, but on my rise up, nomnomnom
Also, idk exactly where Nasus goes, but he doesn't seem hard enough to tank or strong enough to be a dps and he has little in the support department, so...idk, but again, never seen one I had to run from at full health
Also, before flames of nubbery are called out, I admit that these could all be played marvelously, I'm just of the opinion that they're not so good where I'm at now.
Also, why does barely anyone play Nunu? Just tried him out in a 3v3, had a leaver Yi on my side, but I racked up kills like no other on the all-melee enemy team(Xin, Lee, and Yi). I got 0 AP because I went for tons of armor for lulz(Thornmail, The slows-on-hit shield thing, and the Aoe melee slow frozen heart thing,) and wound up at 400 armor(holy cow diminishing returns above 75% reduction btw), 12% dodge from boots, and, again, no AP.
They got a couple pieces of MR each, and my ult still rocked them like you wouldn't believe. Had an Ashe on my team, so slows galore and despite my otherwise puny damage that was the most fun I've had in a good while.
EDIT AGAIN: So, tried Maokai out just to see. was 5/0/4, so I did okay. His E is awesome and the other three are fairly underwhelming imo, but not super terrible. I had a Shen buddy the whole game though or I'd probably have eaten it a few times. But yeah, he's relatively weak, but man is E fun. Does good damage for a fair cost, and terrified the living shit out of the other team, who apparently also had little experience with this champ. Abused that a bit, dropping my ult on them when they grouped and made them scatter all over for fear of the surely imminent huge damage >.>

A man in a wheelchair with a rocket launcher can make a big explosion once, then he's as weak as any other cripple.
