I'm so sad about Illaoi, because I love what she represents. In a lore she's a barrier people must overcome. She exists to stir stagnation into motion. So what is she in game? A character that's countered by movement. All her abilities are dodgable (including tentacle slams after she uses W), she had no slows (other than one you get after failing a test of hers), and she's easily countered by running away. But because of all that, she's so counterable, she's too weak for anyone to play her, and too strong against people who don't know how to play against her. She's a great character that represents her lore like no other, but that makes it so she's barely playable.

She has a healing mechanic but is so useless that makes no difference at all if you land a Q or not. not even her shield burst is usefull unless is against Sett or Tham Kench, and Sett will kill you regardless

[@joebazooka5679]

She's a great champ if you duo bot but like a lot of supports that depend on the team ,one can only land so many 5 man ults into a team wide 3 second stun duration and then no team mates follow up and you just die before you just play someone else. She's just not a solo queue champ

[@TitomaticoVlogsOficial]

@@joebazooka5679 but her kit isn't great either. Her Q deals really low damage and the healing scales with that, which makes no sense cus you want to build her tank instead of AP, and even if you do it scales poorly on AP. Her 1st W is really easy to avoid, and the 2nd W is a worst Singed's E since is an on-hit effect meaning the range on it is your auto-attack range, and is non existent. Then there is her E, a stun with so short duration that most of the time it doesn't make a significant difference like Pantheon's W or Blitzcrank's E. Then her R is ok but you can literally walk outside it if you have tier 2 boots, and it sucks since the whole point is that she is supposed to go in and pull people into her team to change a teamfight forcing a bad positioning om the enemy team, but no, you can just walk on the opposite direction she moves and get out of the AoE, or just not give a shit about it and keep fighting because it just barely pulls you, not stun, not slow, not exhaust, not resistances or healing reduction, not even a silence.

[@Moudra.]

I said the day i have seen her take my money, bought whole bundle with the icon. Man look at her shes fockin metal armored lady with a lance, on a fockin metal horse. SHE IS SO FOCKIN AGGRESIVE as a SUPPORT. I play her ap with shurelya's and zhonya, her whole kit scales with AP with 3 AOE Ablities its psyhotic.

Hitting combo with her feels so good while playing clashes and flex with 4 people screaming in my ears while doing FLASH W R E STOPWATCH, shes nuts.

[@LAtttiful]

As a Taric main. The fact that she was like Taric made me kinda glad she fell off.

[@DeaminZaints]

I started playing Rell after watching Vars' video on her, assuming i could get some use out of her. But her problem is quite simple: What any other cc support can do in 1 or 2 basic abilities, Rell needs her whole combo including ult to do. Her Q is basically a non-existing ability and her E can only be used with an ally, so like Kalista, its like she really only has 2 abilities most of the time.

[@wesker8814]

it's honestly tragic. I think she has such a good design

[@fromia1]

Rell has been nerfed around release time so her strength isn't the issue. She just isn't flavor of the month anymore, so wait until riot give her some love taps, and ppl will start playing her again.

[@DeaminZaints]

@@fromia1 Well its both. She needs some added mechanics but he numbers are also just bad in general, Her E adds armor/MR to her ally, but not enought to be good, the stun is only 0.5s, which is terrible and she HAS to bind to someone to even use it. Her W's knock up is kinda hard to land considering how clearly its telegraphed and how long the jump takes and if you land it you knock the enemy up for 1s only. Thresh's Q alone stuns for 1.5s which is Rells W-E Combo combined, but not only that, its also ranged and a pull. In my eyes, Rell needs a completely new Q and higher stun duration on E at LEAST before people even think about playing her.

[@You_Are_Romantic]

She has literally no damage which is how tank support should be, the problem is she’s not tanky enough. She’d be perfect if once she jumped off her horse she was one of if not the tankiest champion in the game, since she has 0 damage and low movement speed, but as is she just gets one shot way to easily.

[@QuestionableLogic_]

@@You_Are_Romantic She's tanky through her passive. Which you have to apply through her abysmally slow autos and her Q that procs it on only one person for some astoundingly stupid reason. Which also goes away if the person you've stolen from dies. Actually nevermind, she isn't tanky at all in practice. Riot why

[@julianvell8463]

A Problem that wasnt adressed about asol is also, that they just mishandled him in so many ways. He actually had a small but thriving community of mains, i was one of them, but then they reworked him to make him more "accessable", taking away from his skill ceiling, without making him any easier to play, just fucking over the core gameplay of the mana and star management. Asol mains hated it, everybody else didnt even notice it and he just dropped even harder. Half the topics on the asol subreddits are along the lines of "riot pls revert" and they actually reached out to them, asking if they would prefer him to keep his high dps or his high roaming abilitys. Next thing they did was nerfing his e (his roaming ability) so hard, that they reverted it next patch. So hurray for being an Asol main i guess, good thing im not one any longer. Also didnt help that with the item reworked they fucked over his buildpaths, removing half of his core build, as without hextech glp, glacial is a near worthless rune, with everfrost as an ok mythic while the others were rather dogshit. So yeah, niche gameplay, messing with the mains, an unwanted rework, deleting his buildpath and releasing overtuned monsters like yones that eat him up for breakfast. Poor asol really got shit on

As an Udyr Jungle player, I can attest that you are indeed inting. He falls off the face of the rift end game, as hes just a fast stat ball that can only do so much depending on his stats. Late game has you pretty much running in with E, stun someone, then proceed to get nuked in every teamfight unless its a duel. You have to snowball your laners and hope to god they carry.

[@KhârnTheAngry]

"Trick would like a few words with you" Jokes aside, Udyr takes bases like no others, you just open up their base and run away so freely too, and if you play your teamfight right you can finesse most things i love it. Still gets blown up if caught with like some slow or someshit

[@Fear910]

Udyr is in a bad place RN, that's for sure. He's an early ganker, good duelist and can take objectives quickly so he's not ALL bad (like Azir), but not only the powercreep of the new itens / champions nuked him out of the rift, his main strenghts are nullified because soloQ players rarely coordinate to help Udyr's splitpushing abilities...they will ping and flame the f**k out of you if you play the champion like he was meant to be played.

[@sterlingg.759]

I feel like she's a unique champion, but she just doesn't execute the theme/idea that Riot was trying to push. If I'm recalling correctly, weren't they promoting her as like a gigantic tank/almost anti-tank tank? She's a support so she's not very tanky and her W doesn't make up for it. She doesn't feel like a threat and she just doesn't sell the idea, especially with her design/model. Again, it's very unique and I can appreciate that but I don't think it's what people were expecting/hoping for.

[@Egolithz]

The tier list as a whole seemed relatively good from the perspective of most of the playerbase excluding high elo gameplay. Reason I say that is cause champions like Kalista and Azir are seen a bit more in those high elo lobbies cause the players who mastered these kinds of champs are terrifying to play against. If you play against a really good Kalista, there is little you can do to her if you can't hard CC her in every fight. It's like her and Azir have a secondary skill ceiling that only a few gifted players who OTP them have access to that make the champion so unbearably hard to lane against that you want to just stop trying to fight them and just try and cs as much before you inevitably die to them. Kalista and Azir are the two that pop out to me the most as maybe being somewhere higher on the tierlist if we were thinking of the high elo lobbies specifically, but there are others that could also be adjusted for high elo specific lobbies. Also, Heimerdinger is no where near the 1/500 games if you look at Bronze and Silver games. That dude be popping in those elos still lol

[@ip2874]

Kalista is my favorite adc. In the right hands, she really is quite terrifying. The durability patch hurt her kill threat a bit, but also made her relevant in pro play again, which is cool, but also it's never a good thing when one of your mains is showing up in pro play because that's a reliable indicator that they're about to be nerfed back into the ground, simply for being good at what they were good at, now they're going to be bad at that and everything else too, even if they weren't doing well >_< I don't think they'll make her entirely unplayable though unless they "rework" her because even if they entirely removed her ult she'd still be strong in the hands of someone who is good at making use of her mobility and is good at eyeballing her E executes. Really, her auto(dash), Q(dash) and her E are fun enough by themselves that that could be all she had and I'd still play her.

I started playing kindred the second i downloaded league (paid 5$ in RP to buy her bc i loved her sm) and... i was met with *so* much difficulty. Going from bot games into real games it was like I was suddenly put against challenger players. Kindred is and will forever be *so difficult* until riot decides to make her a ranged bruiser like Jayce. Of course, getting good at her is hella rewarding (hit m7 a few days ago and still am riding on that high), but she is *very* counterable. Kha'zix, rengar, talon, all of the assassin junglers just. Kick her ass to next week. Udyr, volibear, tanks which she *should* be able to kite have point and click stuns or ways to lock her down and bridge the gap. All of the meta junglers just completely outclass Lamb and Wolf. bc of this, i like to think of kindred as the Ultimate Skill Checker champion - (her *only* favourable matchup is lillia) if you play kindred and you jungle diff to oblivion, the enemy jungler just sucks. it makes me so sad bc her entire kit is based around dueling and invading for powerspikes, but yet.. she can't duel well, and if the enemy team has any braincells and knows how to counterplay, you will always be jumped on when going for marks. Kha'zix pops her like a balloon. Rengar one shots. Volibear stuns and wins trades. Udyr just. stuns and lethal tempos while chasing... Not to even *mention* Veigo and how he just shreds constantly due to his batshit kit.

I recently went back to playing league after a 2-year break from the game and the first champion that presented with me on a spiritual level even more so than good'oll rengar was lilia which made me realize that these champions on the list were given up on not because they were simply a balance nightmare, but because they didn't resonate with the player base as much as the likes of yone, yassuo, master yi....

However, he was relatively strong in the end of last season's meta but it went unnoticed by a lot of players.

i played her a good amount (got lucky with a good free skin on her) and she's so fun and great when you play with an adc who knows how to take advantage of cc but like her q sucks (even if you build ap it does like nothing) her autos are so slow that you pretty much can only use abilities and get out. that sounds fine bc most champs do it till you remember SHES A TANK and she should be able to stay and fight not just throw her abilities then stand there getting attacked while you wait for them to get off cd. dead ass just give hear attack speed and up her ap ratio on her q to like 70% (even just 50% its on 20% last i checked) and you got a way stronger champ who can got top lane.

On Anivia and Ivern I believe that is due to the fact that they have a well rounded kit, with 1 ability that does not deal damage but has awesome interactions. Anivias Wall and Iverns Brush. Missusing them? Well it does not appear on your damage meter, but when you brush an objective so the enemy jungler can not smite, when you wallbash someone back into your blizzard to kill them with another E, when you siege a tower with brushes making the enemy fear every inch they move forward or when you knock some Nasus into Wraith-pit or sandwitch someone between a wall and their tower: There is nothing more statisfying than that. There is so much potential with these non-damaging abilities, that games just feel different each time.

As a Rell and Illaoi main I completely agree with this tier list. Sadly I don’t see them reworking Rell since they gave her too many unique abilities, and buffing her so that she does not have to rely on her teammates would make her too strong. I started to enjoy her more thanks to evenshroud.

[@rolay7730]

I fully agree with making Rell top. As a top main, I would love to use her. She is tanky, yet has a lot of interesting utility. With stuns, strange movement, and even a flip that could be interesting in a 1v1. But if they are going to rework her stun I don't just want a normal spell-like any other champ. I think she would be more interesting if her E could apply it to minions like the old mordakaizer or what of after she transforms from armor to horse mode she leaves a shard of metal on the ground that she can Bond herself to with E. So it becomes a stunning trap.

Rell I don't know, but for Taliyah I can give an answer as to why she feels so strong but so weak at the same time. She has absolutely insane damage, one of the absolute highest bursts in the game, but she only functions in 2 ways. Either you're a smurf and you can snowball your damage out of control before anyone can do anything about you, or you have a team capable of setting you up, because Taliyah on her own SUCKS at placing down her insane damage. Either people have to dash through your E, or you have to land W which is stupidly hard to do in a vacuum, and let's not forget that sometimes you fail to cast your E after your W and you lose dmg because of it, chaining these 2 spells can be frustrating I don't know if there's a proper buffer for it.

M7 Rell OTP here. When they released her, I was super excited for her, cause her playstyle felt like the "Knight Who Will Sacrifice Herself For Her Team", and I play her because of that, because that's my identity as a player. I embody Hodor. Unfortunately, her slow autos, her link that can ONLY activate if an ally is nearby, a heal that does less than a health pot, and an overall kit that, as much as I hate it, doesn't scream Ferromancer/Metalbender. Not to MENTION the self-slow... if, maybe, the longer you stayed un-mounted, the less penalty you got... maybe I could see her feeling better for newer players, but I'm so used to being, as I call it, Diarrhea Slow, that it feels almost NATURAL to be that slow. So much so, that if I pick Rakan, who... is just better at being Rell (in my opinion) as more of a Paladin Playstyle (Tanking and Enchanting) that NOT being slow feels... awkward. As a character in lore, she is awesome, meant to 1v1 Mordekaiser and hunts down members of the Black Rose, which to me, assumes her identity is a solo laning tank. Nope, Support! (Not that I'm complaining about a Tank Support aside from Leona or Nautilus.) They don't want her at all to have any solo potential, and that's unfortunate, BUT AS A RELL MAIN, I love the way her kit feels, and would be miserable if it got changed... as much as she may need it to boost her popularity.

As a former Ornn main, what killed his playerbase was the back-to-back reworkings of his W.

I really wish you had put Vi up here. Yes, Arcane saw her get a resurgence, but they bugfixed her before Arcane's release for bugs that have been in her kit *since she was put in the game* in 2013.

For reference, Skarner and Kindred both have over 1400 games in pro play, and Illaoi is at 111 with ASol at 184). The few times she's been powerful, she's been instantly nerfed. Even the bug fix saw her winrate spike and she *immediately* got hotfix nerfed on the same patch. Once all the hype for Arcane passes in-game, she'll be put back into obscurity.

Your boy Olaf is so forgotten, my man forgot he existed when he made this list.

[@akaiisa9300]

coming back to see this list and seeing how different things are now for some of these and how some of them are probably less played now than then, is kinda crazy when you think about it

argument in favor of wukong, 1. if you say he has bad damage, play full crit wukong and you will VERY quickly change that sentiment 2. if you know how to play wukong with his clone, he becomes a completely different champion and one of the most annoying nightmares on the rift, which is even more insane because his kit is so braindead easy, but no one knows how to effectively use his clone except for wukong jonathan of course

I played Taliah in Aram once, all I gotta say is that dang, she got damage, she got probably the only knock to/away from me ability and the ability to cut off support. Three could be a team fight, ADC and supp can be cut off from the battle making it a 3v5. I had fun, just not enough BE to buy her.

Love how his mouse hovered Skarner long enough that it looked like Skarner was crying the whole time Scooch roast the poor mineral

i want to play taliyah, her design is amazing, however, the used ground mechanic can be such an annoyance...
