So I recently started to play LOL (lvl 13). I did not really like the 3 you can start with so saved and got Nasus, which was one of the free champs to use at the time. Luckily for me he turned out to be a champ I really enjoy playing with. However there are times that I don't want to play with him depending on teammates picks. I know Nasus need a ton of farming to get his damage up so he isn't a ton of fun to play when I know that wont happen and games can end up being 16min which also isnt great when youre nasus.

I currently am still learning, I play NASUS and mostly 5v5 classic vs. AI beginner; To learn. I would like to know what could be the best champs for me to use? Right now I do like Nasus and a similar champ is fine. I like a tank/fighter or vice versa builds with ability to jungle. I would like to be able to have a better early game because as we know Nasus can take a bit to build up, thus the reason I'm looking for a different champ to try out. I want to be able to have more fun early game so now I am Looking at all the 1350ip champs at the moment, or should I save for 3150ip?

So far interested in: Jax, Blitcrank, Jarvan(4800ip),

Any help would be greatly Appreciated,

DVN

Jax, Warwick, Udyr, Gangplank, Xin Zhao, Shen, and Pantheon are all cost 3150ip or less and fall into that bruiser (tank/AD) category. Jarvan is also very good if you're willing to save up for him.

they all play very different roles in the current meta.

jarvan is a great jungle.

jax can be a solid top.

a good blitz can wreck teams but gets banned often in lower elo so you won't get to play him much in 5v5's.

I would say jarvan.

they are both solid junglers and can both top lane pretty well. he is probably your best choice. keep an open mind though for other champs and keep hitting up the free week champs till you have tried them all (kinda like pokemon hahah)

save up for Vi and use her in every role. Mute your ADC when you go "support" and take all his kills. Once the turret is down take all his farm too. Build assassin but get a sightstone and oracles if you're supporting. Roam a ton if you're going mid (and obviously jungle too). If you used your ultimate on an enemy and they ended up dying, say "get dunked" in all chat.

@bioalchemist he said he's lvl 13 atm so bans aren't really a problem

Jarvan seems like your best bet.

well if you like a kick ***, fighting champ, AD/Tank are not the only one who dominates the top lane. try using singed. he is a strong pick and will just burn an enemy team which secures the kill. unfortunately he is more of an AP/Mana/tank bruiser so if you don't know how to conserve mana early he is not for you, but i'll say this, he is ridiculously OP at low level when you know or learned how to use him.

but i agree with their suggestions too, Xin and J4 are kick *** top and jungle picks so try saving for this guys. trundle would also be great if you learn how to take advantage of area control
+rep if i helped or if you just happen to like repping ^^
