InvertedComposer got to diamond playing nothing but singed/yorick. Doesn't really mean those heros are op it just means the guy plays a lot of them. Although a lot of people do underestimate volibear's survivability and damage with his W active. Voli support is pretty fun.

InvertedComposer was challenger last season playing mostly Yorick. He's also doing quite well with Malphite support this season.

olaf has axe on a short cd and darius has a pull.


In other news since we know the adc is the strongest and 5 > 1 wouldn't the strongest possible team comp be

top: Quinn
Mid: Ez
Jungle: twitch
ADC: varus
Support: ashe

You couldn't lose because while the other team has one maybe two adcs you have 5 dealing max damage!

*also ez has to be wearing nottingham skin so that everyone is shooting arrows which is also OP.

Enemy team buys 5 thornmails. Kekeke.

For gold and lower ELO pretty sure voli top is OP. When I do nothing but voli I move to plat, when I get bored and start playing other shit I fall to gold 5. It's not the best evidence but for me it's true. He does quite a bit of aoe, passive is nuts and that bite is OP.

I think people just have champs that they're good at, even if they don't play them that often. Everyone has some champion that they think is secret op because they somehow play that champion better than the rest of the playerbase.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Do you guys subscribe to the belief that you can get to Platinum/Diamond by maining one champion per role? Because I recall some of you guys saying that was possible or something along those lines.

Perhaps I'm delusional and remembering things incorrectly.

I haven't really heard of that before. I've seen and done 1 champion and 1 role, or 2 champions in 2 roles, but 5 champions in 5 roles is just way too many imo.

I said "One champion for role" for the cases when you don't get the desired role you want, but I think I was really asking about one champion for one role.

Oh yeah, I've done 1 champion 1 role every season since S2 into either dia1 or challenger. Probably the best way to both improve and get high ranks.

it's not only possible, but highly preferred to stick to as small a pool as possible.

it's waaaay easier to improve on a narrow champion pool because it helps you play more consistently and keep track of mistakes better.

ideally you should pick your best/most comfortable of the roles available as often as possible.

On that topic...

I have definitely felt comfortable playing Diana mid, Ashe ADC (when I even have to ADC), Janna support. But for top and jungle I kinda swap a bunch. I don't really have any champion so far that I have had a lot of fun with or want to keep playing like I do Diana mid.

Who wants to make a compelling argument for one of their freelo champs for top, jungle, or both? If not I think I am just gonna play Diana top jungle and mid.

sooooooo, go!

Because of bad matchups and fitting into teamcomps? I dunno, I've always played 10-20 different champions at any given point and jumping on fotms if I can pull it off and I've steadily improved 1 league per season :>
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

As opposed to other people who jumped straight to diamond within 1 season :p

I like tanky junglers mainly because of the liberty the ability to withstand punishment brings me. You can play more risky, position more boldly, play the footsies/zoning game and flex to see how the enemy team react when you contest an area, act as a distraction, bait initiation on you knowing you'll survive and be able to run back for your next round of cooldowns, and just generally sit in the middle of their team and get leverage out of your abilities without having to pay for it.

So basically Nautilus atm since I haven't trained Sejuani much and she's going to be permabanned (and people will be more used to playing against her than I am playing her), s2 I spammed Mundo and Maokai and I'd use Mundo again if someone somehow makes him work without cheesy setups. Maokai's W range nerf is harsh though and you can't build Glory+FH early to sustain your mana usage either.

Vi and Olaf have the advantage of being strong early so it's not as much being tanky as "if you try to go on me and you get caught by my full opener you'll be dead before I drop to half so it doesn't matter".

I got to Platinum maining Malz mid/jungle/top, Thresh support, and Ezreal adc. Very very rarely played adc or top though.

Of course it's possible
In fact I just played against a guy just like that: http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Best Blue Cards

Obviously I beat him because I'm so good (lol jk) but the fact is he has a really good win rate and KDA per game so he's probably going to hit Masters if he just keeps playing.

Maining one champion or one role is probably one of the best way to climb if your main intention is to climb. The real reason why not many people are capable of doing it is because they lack patience or commitment.
