The problem our daycare team has is that we only main one or two champions in our respective roles. We're somewhat all rounded for the most part from playing solo q and such. But being all rounded and mediocre seems to be disadvantageous when it comes to arranged ranked games. I should note that team composition doesn't really matter at our level.

idk, is this worthy of a new thread?


My suggestions would be:

Top
Irelia
Wukong
Cho' Gath

Mid
Cassiopeia
Ryze
Kennen

Jangle
Udyr
Nocturne
Maokai

AD
Ashe
Graves

Top: Cho'gath, Rumble, Udyr
Mid: Anivia, Cass, Ryze
Bot: Trist,Kog,Graves
Support: Soraka, Janna, Alistar
Jungle: Udyr,Shyvanna, Warwick

Offhand all of those are fairly good if not top picks for the lanes they go in and most are fairly solid no matter who they face for the most part.

Id replace Noct with Shyv in jungle. Shyv has all the disruption Noct does, with more tankiness and ability to farm.

That's probably fair. I like noct a lot and don't like Shyv much, so my bias is coming in there.

Ya noct is good, but he still is just a shell of his former self. Shyv just brings more to the table and needs less itemization than noct does.

Wukong toplane for tournament play? That's quite weak, I'd rather say something like:

Irelia, Warwick, Kennen

Not including Irelia seems pretty weird considering how often she has been picked

Doesn't Akali get pretty much hardcountered by most of the sustainy-beefy's (Irelia/Udyr) and then some others (Riven)? I haven't seen Akali top in ages

(sorry for double post, can't figure out how to edit in the iPhone app)

I'd also recommend learning champs that be fit into different places and working them into your team comp. Kennen works well in any lane and is a great first pick, Ryze is a good mid laner and a strong counter to several picks top lane as well. WW is a very strong top laner and an excellent jungler. Same with Udyr. Getting these types of picks in early allows you to counterpick more lanes.

Not sure about post-nerf, but akali used to wreck irelia in my experience. I've only played the matchup once post-nerf, and while I could still trade very favorably early levels, the advantage isn't nearly as distinct.

Yeah I just realised the instance I had in mind was me on Talon, not Akali. Still however, I'd think that once Irelia gets a bit more tanky I'd guess she could take Akali on? Akali was one of my first champs and I still love playing her, but after getting top against GP/Riven and the likes a few times I just didnt quite feel she held up top-lane. The few times I still play her it's usually mid actually

you guys are all crazy

top: kennen, ryze, vlad
mid: kennen, cass, ryze
jungle: udyr, shyvana, skarner
bot: janna, sona, MF, graves, kennen


you should learn kennen in evry lane as he is viable anywhere and totally first pick worthy
would you ever miss it?

And Corki is not mentioned for AD? Pick up Corki for general purpose champs. Can go top, mid and bot too.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

let's talk about how satisfying it is to fucking ruin someone who was shittalking you in the last game.

I'd say it's basically the best thing ever in LoL.


Never happens, I can't carry. Last time my team lost to tiamat Riven.
