I mean this in a serious discussion/question, as I feel like I'm having trouble in solo queue currently, and I'm trying to determine if it's an issue with how I view/rate champions or if it's an issue with my playstyle.
In your opinion, name the best 2/3 champs that can carry a group to victory, for each role, with some room for overlap.
Personally speaking, my champ opinion goes like this:
Top: Jax, Renekton Jungle: Vi, Zac, Evelynn Mid: Kassidan, Fizz, Zed ADC: Jinx, Caitlyn, Ezreal Support: Nami, Sona

There's a LAN in Barcelona going on atm with some challenger Spanish teams, I was just checking the stream and happened to hear the most amazing play-by-play casting ever, this guy is a machine gun.
I can't link with with time stamp because it's unlisted and still live, but go back listen to the part from 54:05 to 54:40

Damn, this guy sounds truly amazing
Someone should cut this bit out and post seperately to reddit

That's horse-racing level commentary, whoa.
|
What are you guys referring to?
|
Support: Thresh needs to be in there. Nami and Sona are both fine, but they can't just DESTROY a lane producing doublekills nonstop. BC is also very good against some supports, but should never be firstpicked because otherwise Leona punches your face in.

What was the game ggla vs. quantic earlier?
Where does Quantic play in the first place? Oh man, I wanna see this game. Anyone got a VoD? I assumed it was NACL but apparently Quantic isn't part of that league lol It was another tourney. quantic not part of nacl. It started with an A

Depends if you're talking pro or just for Solo queue. At pro level it's pretty obvious (e.g. Zed 100% pick/ban at worlds), but solo queue is different. You're better off playing a champ you like to play. You'll enjoy it more and the wins will come anyway. E.g. my most successful champ of late has been Brand, but he certainly isn't considered a competitive pick at pro level.

Top: Jax, Renekton Jungle: Vi, Zac, Evelynn Mid: Kassidan, Fizz, Zed ADC: Jinx, Caitlyn, Ezreal Support: Nami, Sona
Top: Jax, Renekton, Shen Jungle: Vi, Jarvan, AAtrox Mid: Kassadin, Fizz, Viktor ADC: Varus, Corki, Counterpick Support: Nami, Janna, Zyra/Annie
Jax/Renekton should be self explanitory. Shen only if he can ultimate well.
Vi/Jarvan/AAtrox as the best ganking/scaling junglers. Other junglers can be super effective by farming but i like to see those three because i feel like ganking is a little bit preferred now.
Assassins mid and then Viktor because Viktor is trololol OP and fits into any composition
ADC: Varus is top because of his utility and damage, Corki next because of triforce, and then whatever counters the enemy ADC[unless they have one of the few out of lane hard counters like Nasus]because its more important to be ahead relative to the enemy carry than to have a "strong kit"
Nami is the Queen of Poke/Sustain. Sona does a lot of damage but sucks if your carry doesn't know they have to push hard or if your carry is countered in lane and also requires a hard push strategy which is accepted by your entire team. Namis is like Sona but doesn't suck out of lane.
Janna fits into any comp because she is trololol OP. Best scaling, best peel, best counter to the majority of enemy team compositions, not hard countered by any enemy team composition. OP global passive. Only downside... weak against Nami/Annie/Sona in lane.
Zyra just does a lot of damage. Annie is also not bad but Zyra can harass better in lane by just a tad. She is countered by Annie though. And Annie has some of the best hard engage and body block in the game. Same spot because you can't really count the supports with just 3 picks.

Roaming assassins are still the best in un co-ordinated yolo queue though since it's so easy to find solo kill pick offs, so many kills I can get on zed or ahri by just sitting in a brush near a minion wave and jumping the ADC when he steps in to farm

True, but most champs can do that.
I will say that if I were to give one champ to carry Solo queue, it would be Kassadin. Rift Walk is so good vs uncoordinated yoloers. Probably why he's banned all the time.
People also used to always say Hecarim was the best solo queue carry. Don't know how true that is nowadays though.

Consider adding fiddle or annie to your support pool. Fiddle cus fear, annie cus bear.

I think Thresh is weak right now. Zyra is currently the queen of botlane and stomps Thresh without even trying.

I do concur that zyra is the best but thresh is still good in an un co-ordinated environment.

nobody ever mentions leona
she's probably corki's best laning partner, and when you get ahead as leona you get ahead by MILES. I got my AD carry a kill and one sent back to base after trading kills for double buffs and just went mid at level 5 and fucked up that orianna for some free kills..then you go double kill bot lane..then you go back mid by this point your ad carry is ballin out of control and pooping on these bitches and you go fuck up that bitchass orianna again for free gold
#leonaswag
why don't more people jungle leona, fuck
roffles pls

because leonas damage output is trash.
