Getting closer to ranked

[quote=grrg]I am starting to form my team of champs for ranked. I know that a person should theoretically have at least three champs s/he excels at for each role. Seeing as I would like to main ADC I intend to have a few more for that particular slot, though only three at this moment. Without further ado, here is my idea for my champ lineup. Top [[Jarvan IV]] Good tanky Brusier, ULT is great in the right comp [[nidalee]] Lots of Poke [[malphite]] A real beast if played well, Though he is banned often. I would love to be able to play him if he slips through Jungle [[Jarvan IV]] Similar to above [[Skarner]] I like his ult as a good peel for an out of position player, plus his ganks are great [[Warwick]] I started jungling warwick at lvl 7, I have a fairly decent feel for him Mid [[Morgana]] hard to counter, I can play her well [[Lux]] Ult is a beast [[Zyra]] Better support, but along the same strains as the above two Support [[Morgana]] [[Lux]] [[Zyra]] I have these three because they can become late game carries, it allows me to double up on a role and have a great way to finish out games, they all have a snare plus a good aoe ult ADC [[Ashe]] Good initiate if the team is lacking, also first main adc [[Caitlyn]] Great harass, great damage as well [[Miss Fortune]] Ult is extremely useful, otherwise plays similar to other adcs Please give thoughts and opinions, am i missing someing that i need... maybe not specific characters but those specific roles. I have plenty of time before I start doing ranked but i wanted some opinions on what i am working on as a lineup[/quote]

[quote=JasonTheGoldenBullet]What is ADC? Does it mean bot? Sorry, I'm new to LoL and it's not in the terminology guide[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000][quote=JasonTheGoldenBullet] What is ADC? Does it mean bot? Sorry, I'm new to LoL and it's not in the terminology guide [/quote] Attack Damage Carry, so yeah pretty much. I suppose you could also apply it to a melee AD like [[tryndamere]] or [[yi]] but people don't generally use it that way. @OP If you want to pick up other ADs I'd suggest you try out [[ezreal]] and [[graves]] for their early burst and general strength/safety. I also think that [[draven]] is very powerful in solo queue since he's pretty much the strongest early game AD there is and he doesn't really fall off. For mid you'll be fine sticking with [[lux]], she's pretty OP in my opinion. I don't know that much about what's good in jungle/top at the moment but your picks there seem alright to me.[/quote]

[quote=grrg]Yeah, it normally refers to a ranged champ that can put out tons of damage, normally just through basic attacks[/quote]

[quote=jhoijhoi]Warwick jungle is really hit and miss. I've won ranked games with him, but it's so easy to get counter-jungled or shut down early. Have you thought of learning how to jungle Amumu, Malphite, or Jarvan? They're pretty strong picks at the moment.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf][quote=jhoijhoi] Warwick jungle is really hit and miss. I've won ranked games with him, but it's so easy to get counter-jungled or shut down early. Have you thought of learning how to jungle Amumu, Malphite, or Jarvan? They're pretty strong picks at the moment. [/quote] Of course, Amumu and Malphite are commonly banned.[/quote]

[quote=eddie199]I think you guys should try out Taric for support with your team comp.[/quote]

[quote=Xylarboden]^ and Sona[/quote]

[quote=boythinks]i would suggest picking up an AD Assassin type mid such as ZED or Talon. lux i think is one of the strongest mids at the moment though.. i dont know anyone that actually counters her really well[/quote]

[quote=grrg]@ boythinks Yeah that is probably a good idea. Zed is a good top lane correct? @ eddie/xylarboden I chose my supports specifically because of the way they play and that they can be used as mid champs too. I don't want to be stuck in a game with a troll trying to be support. I would rather have the ability to build into a carry to help finish the game. @jhoijhoi I didn't realize malphite was a good jungler. I will probably learn that as well, seeing as I have him in my list of top laners. And I do have J4 in my junglers. As far as amumu, I find he gets countered fairly easy and I dislike his stun being a skillshot. I suppose I should just get over it, but J4 seems just as well and I don't have to worry about him being banned out every single game @luther Yes, I intend to learn all of them. But since I plan on maining ADC i figued i would just get three that i am currently good at and learn the other roles required for solo-que first. Hopefully that helps everyone. Please tell me if I am wrong.[/quote]
