Awesome find, Ashe.

Yes, that's a helpful list to read. Thnx

[Ander]

I'm really enjoying the rock guy. Forget his name. Malphorite? or something. I'll keep trying others, but him and Ashe I feel comfortable with so far.

Malphorite is cool. I've used him before. He's best suited for tanking minions and turrets though. He's pretty slow, and should only be in a supporting role when taking on enemy champions. If you like Malphorite, Nunu is pretty similar, and Nunu's fun. His ultimate combined with Ice Ball works wonders.

[Jack]

Sion and Mundo are like that. Mundo can get a shitload of health end game, and his ultimate is GODLY health regen (like 200 health per second). I'm just not a fan of having to run every time a champion comes running to challenge me.

Taric was pretty fun. Great survivability, but he levels very slow having to be so far from the actual action. I want to try Blitzcrank too.

[Orion]

Apart from Jax, who are good champion killers? That's more of what I"m interested in.

[Vad]

Nasus.

[Jack]

Twitch, Shaco, Gangplank, Ryze, Tristana, Ashe, Singed are the main champs that I have a problem with

[Orion]

Nasus.

Wtf are you serious? I didn't find him to be that way.

[Ashe]

Those that Jack listed are great gankers along with Jax and Yi, and a good Kassasin or Tryndamere.

[Vad]

...his ultimate DESTROYS

[Ander]

Shaco is fun, but hard to use. He's a champion I learned to be very item-dependent. All of his attacks combine very well, though.

[Ashe]

I'm hoping to play some tonight. But I won't be staying up too much past 4/5am EST

[Tyr]

Twitch, Shaco, Gangplank, Ryze, Tristana, Ashe, Singed are the main champs that I have a problem with

Just to clear up a bit. Those bold are the one very item dependant.

Those underlined are only great when their ultimate works and that's rare.

Those italic are insane if played proper. Ryze can be insane by a noob however, it's all about catching them in the right situation, but unlike Gankedplank Ryze can actually do shit without his ultimate.

[Ashe]

Master Yi is the best geared character in the game, in my opinion. If fully geared I mean. He's just a freakin' beast. Thankfully there are easy ways to handle him too.

Ah true, I forgot to include yours. One more to add would be Warwick, which is a very newbie friendly champion which is quite effective at champion killing, with high life-steal to support himself, a teleport-stun to nail them down and an advantage the second they get below 50% not to mention an increase in attack speed.

[Kaden]

Evelyn is a good ganker, too, since no one mentioned her. Karthus can be very dangerous if you forget about his passive or don't have the HP/potion/banshee's veil to handle his ultimate.

[Tyr]

I really don't want to include Evelynn because you just break her with consumeables if she pisses you off too much. Twitch's stealth ability on the other hand is not required, it's the speed buff of the stealth ability that makes it great. Karthus can just be avoided by some sort of CC, may it be slowing, stun (Just not Warwick's stun, since that keeps Warwick around him) or whatnot.

[Kaden]

The way around the Elixir/Ward problem for Evelyn, I've found, is doing crit build. Once you get her ultimate, she functions in a very similar manner to Yi with the added bonus of a very good burst damage attack. No, she's not as effective as if her stealth is working, but it's still doable.

EDIT: Also, Viegar is a great mage ganker. Not nearly as deadly to characters who don't use or gain much mana, but mages beware.

[Ashe]

Its easy to counter Warwick with any number of CC or bubble effects either on Warwick or the player he's duressing. If a player bubbles and keeps moving, Warwick just has to fucking stand there, which invites the rapes. And in a lot of ways, Warwick without his ultimate for that final push is pretty bad. I like him, but he's a very easy counter. Find someone that can jump on Warwick with a stun when he tries to use his Duress and he's just fucked.

Whereas with Yi, he can accomplish nearly the same thing (but no stun, and that is a bit important) while being able to ride Highlander to escape from stun/slow/pretty much anything. However, just like the bubble comment, if someone can keep someone up till Highlander wears off (ensuring it actually hits a cooldown, because jesus fucking christ at that thing when you can chain it and cleave through an entire team like nothing) then he's screwed. He will not get away from the slows or cc, and while its possible he can take down one person due to the attack speed/lifeleech/+dmg ability, he's going to die if others are on him.

Evelynn is fine, but she's easily the weakest of the stealthers. As mentioned, Twitch's greatest strength with his own stealth is the fact that the duration increases the shit out of his attack speed, great for burning down turrets by using his Spray N Pray when out of range of it (they'll burn it quick) and great for numerous other things, blowing up a group of champs all at once with Envenom after Spray. Evelynn is the only person built heavily around her stealth, and its complained about, because against a competent group, she's practically useless.

[Tyr]

Veigar's damage is extreme if you don't know what you're doing. It's very simple - above all, DODGE THE MOTHERPLONKING CIRCLE ON THE GROUND. Late game Veigar can do 600 damage with that shit.

Also if Warwick gets out of Duress without being dead, unless the other one had extreme reflexes he should be on his 50% speed boost and thusly gains in the same fashion Highlander's ability to escape such a dangerous situation. That said, yes, getting rid of the stun can get Warwick in a troublesome situation.

[Ashe]

Veigar is someone that likes to trap someone in that fence, and then throw down his circle for the meteor. A lot of times, the person inside will panic and try to escape through the fence, getting a stun in the process (turns out worse). Usually you can get to the edge of the event horizon without touching it and be out of the meteor's field too. But his ultimate is a freakin' bitch to anyone with a large mana pool.

Veigar just kinda seems like he takes most of a game to get warmed up though. Like he seems as if by the time he finally becomes amazing, you've lost so much tempo that it just won't make up for it.
