Yasuo should be one of the easiest champions. Simple kit, easy to farm with, not too complicated combos, a w that legit blocks like 70% of most mage's damage, high mobility and amazing in teamfights cuz his r shreds armor. I mean he can be punishing but his kit is very much one of the easiest to understand.

[@Minizu4]

aphelios is one of the easiest champions to play. He has great sustain with severum (the pistol), push potential with infernum (flame thrower), good harass and safe farm tool calibrum (the rifle that grants him like 600 attack range), can cc with his gravitum (gravity gun), has insane dueling potential with chakram cuz if they get too close you just run them over cuz of the scaling attack speed and his sentry which is also amazing. He does not need to click any buttons aside from w, aa, and r. That's two less buttons to click, although you need to manage your ammo and learn what weapons to use for what it's really not that hard to pick up.

He is still so extremely weak and over nerfed in solo queue right now that you must have down and utilize his kit very effectively to keep up with the AVERAGE ADC champs in the majority of matchups. You are most often playing at a disadvantage and must be competent and confident enough in the role to use Aphe's utility and your superior micro(/macro) to come up with the outplays to be useful. I agree that getting down his gun order and kit isn't as difficult as it looks intimidating to newcomers. If they're committed to practicing it enough, anyone should have it down eventually-it just takes time. So I think the video and other comments-unlike yours- are wrong to focus on the gun order as the difficult part. It's how to utilize him competently in spite of his current weak position that becomes the demanding part. Sorry for getting so tangential under your comment.

I still believe that people that call Aphelios the hardest champion didn't even try him out. Aphelios is easy - the hardest part is spacing which is just... an adc thing, not Phel exclusive. He is surprisingly easy to understand and learn.

[@diab0lic31]

yep

[@callmeshifu4114]

Phel isn't that mechanical of a champion, which is reflected by his surprisingly low skill floor, but playing him well requires you to actively think about weapon and ammo management as well as using every weapon to the maximum (like hitting every green mark or knowing how to use white turret and stacks), which translates to a high skill ceiling.

[@slavchems4759]

yep, mechanically he's not different from other adcs, i'd say draven is harder mechanical wise, the hard thing with phel is how much micromanagement u need to do in order to play him well, like do i get rid of this weapon? or should i save it? do i have enough ammo to actually do a full damage chakram or no? and thinking down to his passive like, do i max out the attack speed or ad first? all while playing an adc one of the hardest role in the game

It's the fact that you have to micro up to 4 different soldiers and yourself, whilst simultaneously dealing with both the hardest parts of being a marksman (kiting and positioning) and the hardest parts of being a mage (ability usage and cooldown management).

[@livingkiss]

She's not a hard champ but she's definitely not the easiest engage tank out there either. E is a relatively short range skillshot that is possible to miss and dodge (and just straight up not be in range for against like a Cait/Lux lane), R is a skillshot that is extremely easy to flash or dodge bc of the animation beforehand. Q and w are very easy for sure. She has no mobility to get our of a fight, once she's in, she is in and will die if it's a bad fight. Unlike many other cc heavy tanks that have some way to get out. Naut can hook to terrain, Rasmus can speed away, etc.

In some places the list feels accurate but in some places not and i think thats based on the voters ranks. As mentioned some champs skill floors and caps won't show until certain ranks. Ive never been higher than silver and some plays would absolutely not fly in a plat game, making some champs switch to the other side of the list. Typically high ranked players also have more knowledge about the game itself making "easy" champs for them possibly very difficult for lower ranks.

[@YukkiRuiii]

Honestly as a person who actually plays Aphelios he's not hard mechanically but is hard in terms of macro and understanding as being able to shuffle your guns properly and having the right guns for the exact situations can be difficult sometimes but overall mechanically he's not that hard he's in Varus level of difficulty in mechanics to pull off his combos but around Azir level of macro difficulty to properly pull off

There is a big difference between what "hardest" means - hardest to play or hardest to master.

I couldn't agree more, finally seeing somebody else who has my exact point

[@averythegamer4949]

I'd argue that Kalista is harder than Aphelios. Sure he's hard because you need to time what guns you have for objectives and team fights, but after a bit you get used to it and can play him somewhat intuitively since he's just another adc at the end of the day regardless of how many tools he has. Kalista on the other hand has specific movement selections that no other champion has. Her passive alone is strong, but if you devote yourself and the hours and games to learning her tech, her passive truly unlocks and she becomes the actual hardest champion in the game. She has specific options you need to toggle on to get the most out of her because just attack move clicking will hold you back from her full power and limit your movement. Her skill floor FEELS pretty low, you pick her up, spend a few games getting used to her movement and have some success and think "oh this champion is easy" but then you look into mastering her and dig through videos to find actual guides for her and you realize she's actually completely insane. The learning curve of going from new to mediocre is already insane and putting what you've practiced in the tool into real games and getting consistent with it is extremely difficult but so damn rewarding. Here's a video of her movement and other technical skills by a player SIGNIFICANTLY better than me and really hammers home just how insane the champion can be if played at a competent level kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2fRiaOprJVlqtUsi=bhUl0mKRP8KPypW3 I think it's crazy that some people still think the Shuriman Shuffle is a hard tech when it's literally just timing a single button to get the most distance out of, but this Shadow Isles Slide requires precise timing for EVERY auto attack, changes timing when you buy attack speed items and level up, any changes in ping can throw off the timing, needs auto attack toggled on to perform consistently which means if you mistime it you start just WALKING and do no damage at all and lose your mobility until you input another attack command and get back into the rhythm of the slide AND this is all on a champion who has 2 buttons when alone and sometimes still 2 buttons when not alone. She is easily in the top 3 of hardest champions to master in the game just in terms of mechanics alone. The sheer difference of gameplay from when I had 20 games on Kalista and didn't know any of this tech to where I'm at after practicing it and getting mediocre, not even good, just mediocre, is like the difference between night and day.

[@johannhahn248]

He is an imobile adc, he heavily relies on his support, he has a hard kit to learn even if you know the combos because sometimes you have to quickly decide which ult you need to use, all while having only one gun that grants him actually good range, while the rest of them give him lower range than Varus , on top he has basicly one gun that is a good wave clear tool.

However they are easy to pick up, you are not punished for not knowing how to play them well like you are with Riven or Azir. I find it absurd riot is so akin to forcing "skilled" champs to not requiring practice to perform on them. Skilled champs should require practice to learn. They should be strong for those who put in the practice. Capable of unique and flashy moments. Yet not accesible to everyone. That's where you will be rewarded and satisfied of your investement in them, that's where you can be recognized as a good x player, that's where the balancing can be made for those who practice them just like Riven.

Riven is the perfect example of League being balanced in the wrong direction. What started off as a programming error has become a staple in the game. Instead of removing the technique and making the champion more consistent, they've opted to isolate the lower 50%, when they could have balanced the character across all skill levels. This also compounds when it comes to smurfing, where people who know how to abuse this mechanic have a higher percentage chance of winning a matchup, based purely on knowledge not known by the average player because it can only be taught by others who know of the exploit. It's the same thing as Apex keeping in tap strafing. They've enabled 1% of the community at the disadvantage of the 99%. Exploits ruin the game and should not be a part of anything considered "competitive".

I love that fact that a lot of the hard to play champs according to this list like Pyke, Kindred or Aphelios aren't mechanically hard but it's acknowledged that it is hard to master the macro that is required for those champs

[@azeTrom17]

I do think there needs to be a bit of clarification on whether they're evaluated on skill floor or skill ceiling. For example, Lee Sin has a fairly low skill floor compared to Yasuo and Riven, and so doesn't deserve to be that high on the list in that case, but his skill ceiling is much higher than Azir or Aphelios. (check out the best Aphel/Azir players, then look at the top Lee players) If the criteria was specified in the poll to be skill floor, I think the poll results would generally be similar, but there would be some differences--Aphelios, Lee Sin, and Zed would probably be much lower on the list since their skill floors aren't as insane as Riven/GP, for example

[@krow3416]

lee sin has a high skill floor and high skill ceiling. Its not true to say that somene starting out with lee sin will get the hang of him so easily.

[@simontscharf9613]

2 things about this video: 1. Having easy mechanics does NOT mean that a champion is easy to play. Tryndamere and warwick are just NOT easier to play/win games with than any enchanter support. On the contrary just because champions like Velkoz, Anivia dont hard mechanics doesnt mean that they are not one of THE hardest champs to pull of vs good players. The positioning required on squishy mages with no mobility is gonna require more skill and practice to get right in the long run, than learning what aphelios does every will 2. Challenger players will heavily disagree with many placements on this list especially the top picks. Yasou, GP, Fiora have been the undisputed Top 3 in most Challenger opinions

[@lasserodel951]

Master yi in third place for easiest champ is a crime, yes hes frustratin when ahead. But to get there and not throw is not easy at all.

[@SomeoneSomewhere42069]

I take issue with Trynd's placement. He's certainly not a HARD champ to play, but you do have to know how much damage each champ is gonna do to you, to time your ult properly. To get the most value, you wanna be 1 hp, and ABOUT to be hit by something, then R. If you use it in the last second, you're golden.. if not, and you don't know how much damage the enemy team does, you can easily go 0/10 😅😂 so, say you're going against a fed assasin, for instance. You might think to yourself "I have a good 2-3 seconds before I need to Ult", only to be SORELY mistaken when they blow you up with just 2 abilities 😅 speaking of his R, since his Ult is what makes him so good, when he doesn't have it, he's virtually useless in a team fight, as enemies will just focus you down, and make you useless (or dead) in 2.5 seconds, being essentially a melee ADC. He can be okay in a 1v1 without his ult, depending on who he's fighting, but only if he has his passive up, assuming you're equal in items and levels. Tldr: I don't think he's hard by any means, but certainly harder than Rammus 😂 Edit: Oop. I just realized that the rankings are from hardest to easiest.. it's 4 a.m, leave me be 😅😂

[@ichmagbratwurst4999]

I might be biased but I'd say Yi is far from being the third easiest champion by now. Sure, on a basis you can just walk up, press E and R for more damage and hold down rightclick to do damage with the occasional Q thrown in but that kind of gameplay will only hold up against players ranked somewhere in Iron 52. Realistically you need to be wary of CC into burst combos and need to know what champion you need to focus at what point of a fight and when to maybe disengage for a bit while deciding if you can use your W as an auto reset to get some additional burst damage or if you need to hold it to be able to survive a burst.

With correct builds you should be quite sturdy too, PLENTY of rooms for mistakes.

[@hidesidehs5271]

@@vunguyenlong5738 Yeah. So easy to "just" time W correctly when half champs have either instacast on their CC or nuke ( you also need to know which one is worth parrying ) and its by miles more important to do so, in comparison to garen, who can almost ignore that spell. Hitting vitals isnt all that easy either with minions around and opponent kiting you, while you also have to keep in mind that W and you gotta dodge sht with you Q too, without comprimising its stab into vital.¨ Dude. You make it sound like you start the game at 4 items, with one item lead on top and your lane opponent is always slow, low ranged control mage with telegraphed CC that you can run just whenever. Thats not your average experience. Your average experience is someone like trundle, who even if you put half item behind, will still statcheck you once he finishes DS even if you parry his Q and slow his AS and you hit everything.

aphelios no1???????????? wow ig ppl vote hard to what they don't understand or smt. Champ is knowledge and rotation preps but once ur in a fight he's pretty simple. I'd give No1 to hwei next patch since even if u understand him whether ur hwei or vs him there are lots of options and combinations of skills that can be casted (over 1000+ unique combo variations) you can cast sub-optimal to ok combo or you can make best combo that could make difference in a fight in split sec of decision making. which gives him above average skill requirement but 1 of highest skill ceilings imo.

It would be fun to see how different ranks think of this - because it's obvious that this list is heavily influenced by silver/gold players.

This list is actually quite unreliable, it's obvious most of the voters are themselves low skilled players or biased either against or in favor of some champions. If this list is based of of skill ceiling, there should not be a single marksman or mage in 15 easiest simply cuz they heavily rely on positioning. I mean you are telling me there are people who believe Jax and Darius are harder than Ashe? Mages like Lux and Seraphine are also this high cuz low elo players can't dodge, eventhough their skillshots(especially Seraphine's) are quite hard to reliably land. Same goes with 15 hardest, it's inflated with massively overrated(usually by their mains, which are alot of people) difficulty assassins like Yasuo, Akali and Zed. Not to mention some champions who are in top 15 like Nidalee and Zoe as well as some who are not like Taliyah and Elise are quite unpopular champions so people don't vote for them as they don't know how hard they actually are.

I disagree with Garen being easier than rework Yuumi because with rework Yuumi you just press W on a champion and then E whenever is up(and a bunch of Q's early) so nothing to time At least with Garen you have to time your W efficiently and not panic press R and waste it and,not hard at all but harder than anything from Yuumi's kit,be close and in a somewhat good spot to activate Q so the enemy isn't so far away that Q's bonus MS expires or for minions to block your movement. Don't get me wrong,Garen is very straightforward and easy but calling him easier than a champion which basically gives you the freedom of watching Netflix while playing is absurd Also where is Morde?He is easily top 5 easiest champions in the game,just ult and all out on the enemy with a hard to miss Q and a W that allows you to survive the fight with no problem

tl;dr people know nothing about league macro, so they think skill difficult is making combo. . thats happend when bronze and sliver players (biggest population) judge hard champions by making combo. calling yasuo, katarina, zed, irelia or aphelios hard its like saying, that teemo or nasus are easy. everyone with any basic knowlege will know, that league is something more than doing one combo. there are questions how difficult is survive/dominate early, is comeback after being behind is possible, do you have any push potential, how its easy to counter your champion etc. yasuo, kata, zed etc. have easy early game, by "easy" i mean - can easy survive every lane by no losing farm, have good push and poke potential, extremaly good spikes and game is over after being 1/0, cuz have amazing scaling, good stomp potential, and being raid boss after any adventage. meanwhile nasus, who is "SO EASY", cant survive early game, if enemy jungler will come, you are done, if your jungler wont come, you are done. if enemy will have adventage, you are done, if you have adventage (somehow) you not even winning. well, but atleast he have good late game, right? - NO. he cant win against any good bruiser, and most "hard" (XD) champs hard outscale him, like yasuo, yone or irelia, who easy can stomp him on side, even in late game, while they had free lane. all what i mean is - most people are stupid and dont understand basic of the game, all they know is some champs have combo and some dont have, so this one are easy, and second one are hard.

[@suboss7880]

[@numskull8943]

I main ADC, and Aphelios wasn't too hard to pick up. Of course playing any champion at a high level is difficult but I feel Aphelios was an easier champion to learn especially because of how straightforward and how 'no bs' his tooltips explaining the abilities were. Aphelios was a champion that looked complicated at first glance, and especially will give you a headache when trying to digest his kit for the first time mid-game. I believe the hardest champions are the ones that rely on each part of their kit's combo hitting in order to deal a suitable amount of damage in response to how much hp and mana (or energy) spent.

[@superlad6684]

Yeah, I agree w Akali being placed way too highly. The champ looks way too flashy for what it really is. She has the 3rd highest base HP regen in the game and you start d shield almost every match up, so with second wind, d shield, and just base hp regen, she is super forgiving and 90% of the time youll just out sustain your laner unless its like vlad or gragas. On top of that, her hardest counters are all super low pick rate champs like kassadin, taliyah, jayce, and vlad, so you rarely ever get put into a horrible match up. Her q takes a while to get used to the short range and knowing when youre close enough to poke, but other than that, super simple ability. Her W is literally just free invis in an area for a short amount of time, extremely broken. Her E is a free engage/disengage, depending on how you use it. Her R isn't hard to use either, point and click dash that deals damage and R2 is a free cast dash that also deals damage, which acts like another free engage/disengage.

[@draculemihawk10]

Just wait until you get a Garen mid and says f*** you to your W with his E

[@caseykong158]

Aphelios is really easy. His passive is a paragraph, and his q is 5 different abilities, but you have to remember that his passive pretty much is his whole kit. He is the hardest to first time because to play him you need to understand gun rotation and gun combos, but a few games makes it pretty easy. He's mechanically very simple. He has no fancy combos (for the most part). It looks really complex due to the gun combos, and to someone who doesn't play him, it may seem impossible to understand, but it's not that hard. It would be interesting to see a new poll done where you ask the mains of that champion how hard they think he is, and compare that to what the rest of the community views that champion's difficulty as.

Being good at Leona requires you to know timing, basic spacing to stay healthy, ally awareness and good positioning to keep yourself ready to engage.

Creo que es más la percepción que se tiene, por ejemplo Yasuo, yasuo es un campeón extraordinariamente fácil de usar, pero si llegas a un elo alto, ahí recién entra la complejidad, el poder hacer magia frente a oponentes que sí saben jugar. Supongo que esa lista estaría medianamente buena si solo consideramos el uso de estos campeones en Challenger para adelante. ¿Pero azir?

I think the problem is in league you have different way to saying ''hard/easy'' to play. Because you can talk about hard to play like... in the meta right now, hard to play a champion because of it's kit or hard to play a champion to master it and go beyond all his tricks. And some champions ''roles'' are designed to be harder, this can lead adc and squichy in general to be harder, while tankiers champions are harder. Champions without mobility can be significaly harder, for example Pyke or Zeri due to their amount of mobility can be easier than Janna or Ashe in a sence, despite the fact they are more ''mechanical''. Some champions are harder due to their kit/master potential but have a ''strong'' kit so it's harder to loose with them, for example Irelia is the champion I have in mind. She is hard to play but... she is easy to beat people due to her kit/stats...
