Need a new assassin but don't know which one.

[quote=YslayerZ][quote=Re4XN]You have the champions that are good in the laning phase, those who are good in teamfights and those who are sort of 50/50. Not entirely sure if all champions fall into these categories (most likely not), but assassins are pretty close. [[Ahri]] is not a true assassin, she's part mage, which definitely helps her during teamfights with the AoE damage of her [[Orb of Deception]]. [[Yasuo]] has this fantastic ultimate that can wreck entire teams, but his early game isn't something he should be proud of. What I meant to say was that there are trade offs. You can't have a champion that excels both in the laning phase and in teamfights (which is what the OP wanted and if such a champion existed, it would have been completely broken). At most, the champion will be average at both (50/50).[/quote] I see what you're saying, but I think then the subject really becomes more of a balance issue on Riot's end lol. IMO I think there ARE champions that excel in all parts of the game, namely ones that do well in lane and can snowball really hard like [[riven]], [[tryndamere]], and [[fiora]]. The skillcap of these champions tends to be higher than other champions and their performance in game is inexplicably tied to the skill level of the player, but they can and will crush you both in lane and in teamfights in the hands of a good player.[/quote]

[quote=Re4XN][quote=willieaames]Name one assassin with as much counter play as Zed? he is strong, he deserves nerfs but i'd rather Riot releasing 10 champions like Zed than another point and click 0 outplay potential.[/quote] Wut? Plenty of assassins can be outplayed if you know what you're doing, don't really see what you're trying to say...[/quote]

[quote=TheRabidRabbitX]My favorite assassins are Akali and Katarina.[/quote]
