So I was going through your arguments and I found that I was just saying the same response every time.
Wrong. Don't presume things that work in normal games and bronze mmr to work vs better players.
I talk about high MMR all the time... because I literally play in it every game, and have 200+ high mmr players on my friends list (with a decent chunk of them in LCS/NACS) that I talk to every day about the game. Some of the things you say are just so wrong on a basic level that I just don't have the time to explain it to you.
1. Yorick does not outsplit Fiora and Jax. This is just a fact.
2. Taric/Leona and w/e melee support doesn't beat ranged supports in lane. This is just a fact.
3. Kalista was terrible on 6.24. She is not terrible on 7.1.
4. Vayne and Twitch are situationally better than Ashe, but there are a lot of situations where they are not better. Ashe is consistent and never a terrible pick. So she is tier 1. Read what I designate tier 1 as.
5. Nocturne and Warwick are one-dimensional champions that are easily shut down by players who understand how to exploit their weaknesses. You don't get exploited because you play in dumpster MMR and normal games. I can play AP riven and win in that MMR. It doesn't mean it is good.
You don't have credibility in an argument unless you're a MINIMUM of Diamond V or work as a Coach/Analyst for a living. Sorry if that sounds elitist or douchey, but it's the truth. If you think you're at that level, then stop playing normal games and go get to that rank, and then maybe I'll take you seriously. A bunch of your arguments aren't really arguments, as much as you are giving your opinion and stating it as fact. This doesn't work if you are bronze. Go say these things to any high elo player and you'll get laughed at.

Pretty strange seeing
Warwick as Tier 4 for jungle when
Warwick can out jungle almost every jungle champion in every aspect of jungling except ganking and even has more gank power than most junglers once he hits level 6.
Warwick is probably the best jungle pick for low elo as well because he is able to easily turn a game around as soon as he hits his late game. So if you are losing a game because of your team you can easily turn it around just because
Warwick can tank the entire enemy team long enough for his teammates to finish them.
Also noticed
Nocturne set at tier 3 when he is really strong right now and can do ganks really early. Honestly he feels broken because how strong he is.
Rengar might have lots of burst, but if you build
Nocturne full damage it looks like he 1 shots people every time he ults on them. He also can easily escape or stay in and kill every other enemy around him because unlike
Rengar he is basic attack based not ability based. He snowballs easily. Another great thing about
Nocturne is that once he hits level 4 he wins nearly any 1v1. There's only a few jungle champions who would be expected to win a 1v1 against
Nocturne and a skilled
Nocturne player can beat them too.
Lee Sin is one of them, but it takes being good with
Lee Sin and he can't win the face off consistently unless he builds full damage.
Then you have
Yorick at Tier 3 for top laners yet he can beat all your Tier 1 top laners and most of your Tier 2 top laners and is also one of the best team fighters and split pushers currently. Like I play a lot of
Yorick and it would be hard for me to think of a match up he wouldn't win other than
Darius who he can often tie with if the player is good. He'd lose vs a
Xin Zhao potentially but could out play one and he also ties
Tryndamere. Other than that he wins basically any match up or at least gives the player an advantage. Honestly I think this is just inaccurate overall for most of the champions.
Like you got
Ashe as Tier 1 adc yet put
Vayne,
Twitch, and
Ezreal as Tier 2 yet those are currently better adcs than
Ashe because of their strong early game and their mobility abilities to avoid ganks. And you got
Kalista Tier 2 yet she is weak right now and certainly weaker than
Lucian,
Draven, and
Tristana whom you put in Tier 3.
And you put
Miss Fortune support as Tier 1....
Miss Fortune support is so easily countered and the only time it is viable is when the enemy has a squishy ranged support. If the enemy picks a tank support and anything with strong gap closing then
Miss Fortune is useless and she certainly can't peel for the adc. I'd take a
Pantheon support over a
Miss Fortune support in nearly every match up because he has way more supporting capability and killing capability. Yet you put him Tier 4.

And you put





You're thinking too linearly.
Warwick is Tier 4 because of how hard other champions can bully him, clear camps faster and gank pre 6. WW only works in low elo because he has 2 things. Consistency and the lack of an opponent. Everyone knows what WW can do, and how to do it so in low elo it makes sense when peoples game knowledge is limited. They also don't directly compete with him, allowing him to freefarm until 6 where WW can snowball against hyper pushed lanes (which are also common in low elo). Plus when people don't kite, his steroids are great.
Noc would be Tier 2.5 IMO, but the issue noc has is that he has to build full damage to be relevant and that his non-ult ganks are weaker than any other T2 champ. Sure he can 100-0 a squishy before his ult wares off, but in higher elos people will group/peel for their squishy champs. A tanky noc is also pretty ****. With the support meta being mages/enchanters Noc suffers when against the latter, as a Janna can single handedly prevent noc assassinating people.
Yorick is a bad teamfighter in anywhere above gold, he gets kited too easily. Splitpushing he's amazing but the issue is right now that top lane is pretty much tanks/carries. Yorick will get beaten out by Jayce, Darius, a good Yasuo, a good Fiora and champs with any remote ability to leave his W. Tanks can just ignore him, turning it into a farm lane where they outshine Yorick once the lane ends (making him bad). If you get strong early or the enemy laner doesn't respect his pushing power he can shove into inhib faster than most, but a team with decent map awareness will stop him doing that, triggering a 4v5 and pressing that advantage.
ADC is a utility meta, so yeah Ashe is tier 1. Ezreal is very safe, but doesn't bring much utility. Twitch I would argue is T1 in solo queue, because of his assassination and teamfight potential. Vayne is only good with skilled players and even then is destoryed in the current jungle meta. (Lee reveal, Vi point and click, rengar, hecarim). Kalistas buffs also brought her up a lot, she's decent now because of her ult and vision control (hello utility). Draven is hard to tier, because of his difficulty. Lucian is still **** right now and Trist has too many issues even though she's strong in the hands of a good player.
MF Support is tier 1 because she's the counter, not that she gets countered. MF support is bad against tank supports/engage supports and great vs mage/enchanting supports. The meta is the latter, so she's decent. Plus she directly counters the other tier 1's. Insta killing Zyra plants and making it impossible for malz to keep his passive up. With any co-ordination MF support can basically be a carry with just a black cleaver (check TSM vs C9). In low elo I'm sure she's garbage because of her reliance on the lane partner.
Also I love panth support, he's pure cheese but that's all he is. I wouldn't call him a support as much as "I want to make the enemy ADC a non-factor for 25 mins".
Your logic has some ground, but you're thinking of the champion only each tim. You need to look at every champion in the game to make a tier list. MF support is a "meh" support, but specifically in this meta/popular champs she's great.
Call me surprised, but
Cassiopeia in Tier 2 ADC? I mean, if
Ziggs works, why not? Though I haven't heard of it or seen it.
Do you think we'll eventually get some
Rengar nerfs, seeing how he's just so much better than everything else?
How much of an impact will the CotC nerfs have (if we go with current PBE changes)? Obviously nerfed early on, with the per level hp getting nerfed quite hard.
Courage of the Colossus (Tier 6)
Shield reduced to 3-54 from 10-180
Shield duration reduced to 3 seconds from 4

Thanks to The_Nameless_Bard for the sig!
You still haven't placed
Swain mid, is he simply not played there now? As for what Lasoor was saying, I'm glad I don't have to come here and repeat your answers all over.
Nocturne, specifically, is extremely hard to pull off at higher elos because of how one dimensional he is. I play him and love him (those sweet solofarming carries), but at high elo you even get people hiding just beyond your vision with a carry solo pushing so you try to assassinate and suddenly you're getting ********ed. He's simply not consistent enough, and early game he lacks things other top tier junglers like good diving potential with a high survivability rate and he's terrible if getting counterganked unless your laner(s) also brings good damage + CC.
I don't even understand how you can think Warwick is good, most frequently played champs at the moment can kite him and his ult is extremely easy to cancel. He has a decent midgame and that's it, there's much better hard-cc jumpers in the meta, namely
Vi.
On a sidenote, if
Gragas buffs pull through I expect him to come and annoy the **** out of everyone once more. Fun.

I don't think you understand low elo very well. A majority of low elo ranked players watch high elo ranked player youtubers and try to play like them. They counter gank, they counter jungle, they gank constantly, and they try to keep their enemy jungler from being ahead of them. Most junglers can't beat a

Probably the reason for that is because I play him the right way and you don't. He is not meant to be fought as a chaser or assassin. He has a weak assassin kit and a weak chasing kit. He is a team fighter. Your goal with him is to keep the enemy off your back line or jump on the enemy's back line. You build high tank and Tenacity to prevent yourself from being locked down and bursted to oblivion. If the enemy focuses you down they lose the fight in majority of occasions as a result. If they don't focus you down they risk you cleaning them all up to still win the fight. The only time a skilled

I'll tell ya though, the Full AP Grag players are ****ing beasts. I've seen a couple in the last few weeks. I think he's very underated, which I'm glad because of how scary he is when built full AP.
I can't take back the words I never said

Yeah, I have no idea either. And if he has E + Flash and you're a squishy might as well open the shop already.
@Lasoor
Pretending that watching high elo players play qualifies you to give high level of play opinions (and say everyone else is wrong because you somehow became enlightened on how Warwick is supposed to be played) is like saying just because I saw a chef cooking I'm instantly qualified to open my own restaurant. Bronze players aren't in Bronze due to chance or coincidence, they aren't just misunderstood challenger players who somehow got unlucky.
I've literally won three consecutive AP

He's getting a rework to make him more interesting. He's far more viable than
Nocturne is completely viable as both full damage and on-hit. You can build him either way and if you want him to be more of a team fighter you go on-hit. Early game
I don't see how you can call his split pushing slow when he is one of the fastest lane pushers currently. He is a strong split pusher, simple as that. Many other split pushers rely on items for their push speed such as
ADCs are normally late game champions anyway. Thing is, a skilled
I love how you keep saying "At a higher MMR" yet all the things I said is information I researched through Challengers, Diamond players, and Masters.
Almost any Tank support with gap closing will dumpster a ranged support. You take a
And please tell me what these "easy counterpicks" for Miss Fortune support are. I'll have to write them down and go sell the information to professional coaches and analysts, since they clearly don't have any counters for MF support.
Lots of people know counter to MF support. Lots of high elo people, lots of experts, lots of people in general. Majority says what I say because I've researched it before saying it, MF support is for specific situations. All you need is a support that can take a hit, cc, and gap close and you can beat MF support. Hell just pick
