I have IP to spend (7000). What champion should I buy (for ranked solo queue obviously).

I was thinking:
Nocturne (heard he's better now).
Zed (his shadow got nerfed though).
Hecarim (pony).
Leona (nerfed as well apprently. or outscaled?).
Renekton (nasus is better though apparently).
Aatrox (mebbe?).
Or should I just save for the wind guy...

Was hoping for an honest opinion. If a champ isn't up here that you like, recommend them instead~

Zed, Renekton or Aatrox for mid, top and jungle respectively. Zed is still incredibly strong, Renekton is ridiculous and Aatrox, I'm pretty sure, is still a very strong jungler.

Also kudos for the thread name.

Thanks for the quick response~

Was thinking of Zed honestly, but I've just heard so much complaining about his new W skill, how it moves so slowly now, it prevents you from dodging skillshots with ease like before, and it takes longer to escape correctly.
For Renekton, his late game just annoys me. He does very little late game (unless he's extremely fed). Thoughts on if that's worth it?
As for Aatrox, I think his mechanics are fun and new, but I haven't seen a ranked game in ages where he was played. Is he competitive? Does he have a high skill cap?

Sorry in advance for all of the questions :P I just am curious what high leveled players think.

Expanding the list just a little:
Lissandra? Draven? Nami?

Zed is still strong, just needs a bit getting used to his new W. Renekton still stomps most matchups and is a teamfighting monster. Aatrox isn't too hard to pick up, learn to abuse his passive and learn how much damage you can dish out and you should be fine.

Lissandra is broken imo, high waveclear, high utility, good damage and safe laning. Draven is a personal favourite of mine and I think he's still strong, others might think otherwise. Nami is good but I don't know her position currently.

I would go with Aatrox he's really strong right + his dance really goes with the new nasus skin dance animation

Any remarks concerning their early to mid to late game?

Zed is a strong midlaner with a lot of potential to unlock if you have the mechanics. Aatrox is a pretty simple champion that rewards mostly decision making (when to go in and when not to, basically) and is generally played as a jungler or sometimes top.

I personally think Zed is stronger and more fun to play, but I'm a little biased against aatrox. Zed is pretty much strong from level 6 onward while Aatrox falls off pretty hard if he doesn't get enough items by mid game.
Thanks to Jovy for the sig!

New zed is actualy a lot more safe than the old one, before he was a suicide bomber and now he has a very nice escape with his ultimate. I'd say he's the better choice just because of the mobility

I'll narrow it down slightly for you: not Hecarim.
