Description
The only true difficulty tearlist, not for skill floor, not for skill ceiling, but for playing optimally against competent opponent, It might trigger some ppl, but for that reason I also want to point out few things with this list, like the already hinted fact that some champions arent actually required to be fully mastered, while the possibility of deep mastery is still present, they are just that much rewarding, unlike others who require skill closer to mastery of these champs, either because the mastery is that easy to achieve or because it has dimnishing returns, but is still needed to be achieved for champs viability.
Secondly, the difficulty to learn doesnt INHERENTLY equal difficulty to play. So while some champions are hard to learn, they arent necessarily hard to play. Especially those newly released OP champs, where you get away even with playing them completely wrong. It can also mean that champion is hard to play only initially, until player builds his know how and then just implements that.
With that said... Skill floor is difficulty to learn the champ bend to your will. Skill ceiling is limit of the champion. Its possibility but not necessity. Champ can be balanced around point anywhere in between. One is balanced around skill floor, while another around skill ceiling.

These champions are far easier than Garen. Period. If these champs won, its not the players that won it, its Riot who won it for them.

What about Fiora? Just using her W correctly already counts as heavy outplay, because she either read opponent well or outmaneuvered him or enemy simply did mistake and she didnt, which is same same. The vitals she has to hit are pretty much in the mercy of her opponent and on top of that until she builds few items, she has to make even her mobility count by dodging enemy spells and dancing around if she doesnt want to get statchecked, which also includes on hitting max range Qs which requires perfect aim and positioning. Too far, you dont hit hin and can get long *** CD on Q. Too close you will have to recall in next 5 seconds. Slows and enemy's own MS boost completely fks her over. She cant move, she cant so she cant hit vitals and do damage, if she cant hit them then no MS boost either and heal either. Slows and MS boosts last very long and enemy can hug walls, use minion block to block her. Build heals, shields, GW on top of already mentioned slows and MS boosts. Stuff like stride, rylai, botrk, iceborn are complete nightmare.
Thats not even mentioning specific match ups, where some champs have their own BS she has to deal with.
Then ppl play against Morde who doesnt even know what her W does and ppl get the idea that Fiora autowins melee fights and with minimum skill.
And in case of Ambessa. If she had to make every dash count then I would agree, but that is not the case.
Even if she was somehow harder than Thresh, I dont think she is that MUCH harder. Def not more than Brand, Sylas or Khazix who I put in same tier.
Shaco is both in the very hard and idiot tier.
Also, the inting Sion tier is top comedy :))))
Also thanks ^_^
Anyway, reksai is as hard as Draven, Zeri, Viego? Or you mean that she should be in top of easy champs? Champs in each category arent in order.
