[quote=Elementz][url=http://rog.clgaming.net/blogs/draft-mode/2675-draft-mode-tier-list-leona]Has been updated :D go and check it out if you're interested![/url][/quote]

[quote=JunSupport][color=yellow][u]Highlights for me:[/u][/color] The oh-so-kitable Udyr is tier 1 now? Anivia is tier 1? Her mana costs is a bit tough for that... Tristana has always been good. Anti-heal + Self-steriod + Gap closer/Escape. People just never liked her because she's not very flashy. MF, Ashe, Corki, way more flashy and impacting when you attack. Haha, Yorick went from "hard to place" to top tier in 1 patch. GG Riot buffs. LOL, Kayle went up 2 whole tiers! Cass - tier 2 because you noticed people playing her more? I think [u]Free Week[/u] had an impact on this. The current Vladimir is in front of Jarvan? Wow........ Nunu's deserves lower imo. Consume + Ice Blast nerfs huuurt. Trundle went down. That is so sad~ ... First time I looked. Heimerdinger is Tier 4. -points at my 1800 ELO Heimerdinger thread- RAWR! Heimerdinger at the moment is hard to play, but he's not that bad~ Double stun duo lane (Brand + Taric) is good? I never knew. hue Mordekaiser - Always been a good champion, but you have to play like a carry: Farm up early game. Once you`ve farmed up, you're indestructible. If you get [[Children of the Grave]] off, your DPS becomes equivalent to a ranged AD Carry. Mordekaiser is a [u]Tanky DPS Carry[/u]. He's like a melee-carry without any of the squishiness. He's that awesome. Kog'Maw's problem is he relies on enemies to hold down his targets. I'm glad Olaf isn't high tier. I hate him; I never play champions who can 1v1 him. e_e Glad Leona's in the same tier I would have placed her. She has farming power or threat/aggro in late game. People can just ignore her in the big team fights.[/quote]

[quote=Pwnzor1130]I don't know why people stopped playing vladimir after they nerfed him. It really didn't do that much and made spirit visage an even better item on him.[/quote]

Vlad is still better than Jarvan due to his ult + pool. NO matter how much of a nerf to the Q. ---- I think Annie dropping behind Orianna is wrong though . Even though Orianna's ball is amazing, Annie fed by herself can snowball the game bettter than any carry in the game at the moment in my eyes.[/quote]

[quote=JunSupport]@Joobieo: Her early game's really bad now though. I could zone out the recent Anivias so easily, even the ones that play well. They just run out of mana that quick if they try to fight; if they don't fight they're left with auto-attacks. Vladimir's... mneh. He's strong in lane, but all he has to contribute to fights is his [[Hemoplague]]. He has no distinct role, he's neither nuke nor dps, just a nuisance... Like a mosquito. =_=;; Jarvan has a distinct role now as an AD tank, his [[dragon strike]] + [[demacian standard]] make for great harass, initiates, cc, brush reveal, and ally-buffing. The rest of his kit is also equally jam-packed with utility and tanking/combat power. And, Orianna's lane and late-game nuke is better then Annie's. Annie's spike damage is actually weaker then hers if the on-release theorycraft was accurate. Orianna's just harder to play. But, when she's played well, she brings fair more to her team then annie down; including a decent AoE CC. Orianna can also shield + haste her team. Annie's been high recently because of her buffs AND double cast in my opinion[/quote]

[quote=JEFFY40HANDS]Solid ratings imo. I agree that Annie should still be higher than Orianna. At the same time though. Orianna's early game LONG RANGE harass/zoning/Nukeage can beat out Annie. And Orianna's late game sets her up with an rtard strength Command: Protect. However Annie's Tibbers stun can shift the momentum of a team fight more than Orianna's ulti. Only for the fact that it has less liklihood of missing....Orinna moves too far from her ball whoops she ultied herself and no one else.[/quote]

[quote=B-Wong]Orianna has massive burst with insane utility. I think Annie only has one. She fits into sooo many team comps. She doesn't even need to be near her ball to do damage! I don't think Annie has all of these characteristics at the same scale as Orianna does.[/quote]

[quote=KillaTheNinja]:3 Orianna tier 1...and notes that she's probably the best champion in the game. Makes me happy, but also makes me hope there's no incoming surge of popularity followed by a nerf.[/quote]

[quote=Temzilla]Anivia has ALWAYS had an atrocious early game. Not enough damage, mana issues and such. Anivia with first blue however, OH GOD. You aren't going to win that lane. She has an awesome mid game, where she three shots people. Then her late game is almost as good as Annie's. I think the reason she is higher tier is because she has more utility in team fights. Annie is basically a bear+combo bot late game.[/quote]
