Anyone need help? Champion recommendations?...

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]I decided to start a thread for everything help-related. If you are new to the game, experienced, want in-game help, out of game help, whatever, just post on here and I will try to help. I check mobafire often, play LoL a lot, and have spare time (and don't worry I'm pretty good :)), so I am free to help. :D Also let me know if you want me to make a build for anyone, I will play around with them and try to get something up ASAP, I am experienced with quite a large array of champs in this game :).[/quote]

[quote=eXecute]So I hastily bought Katarina with IP, and read your guide and other stuff. But I still do horrible damage. I've pretty much come to the conclusion that Katarina is a very low damage dealing champion (or maybe it's because I cannot get items as fast as enemy team). And I keep ending up with stunners / snarers on the enemy team, and that basically means Katarina should just sit by the turret the whole game because otherwise I am just feeding (sometimes feeding right at my own turret). With Akali though I am able to survive much longer, escape way easier, and do way more damage because the cooldowns of akali are much faster than that of Katarina. Any ideas?? Anyway you're on my friend list, so maybe we will be able to play today and you might spot exactly what I am doing wrong.[/quote]

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]tbh, Kat is one of the best nuke (high burst damage) dealers in the game. I'll be on today, when you get on hit me up for a game. Maybe we could do a custom too :o[/quote]

Maybe we could do a custom too :o [/quote] no she isn't, she's quite easily one of the worst. there's a very good reason why she is never touched in mid+ elo[/quote]

[quote=Jet]it's true though[/quote]

[quote=eXecute]So Jet, what are the highest burst damage dealers in the game then? Do you have a list or a link somewhere to a discussion of this? I am getting a bit annoyed by doing well with katarina in some games, and in other games getting absolutely destroyed with it.[/quote]

[quote=Jet]leblanc veigar irelia akali annie probably the top five - in no particular order[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]Kat isn't a nuke - she can deal a lot of damage to a lot of champions, but she can't spike down one champ. I'm too used to playing Guild Wars, where "nuke" referred to a player doing tons of AoE damage to several enemy champions, and "spike" referred to a champion or a team focusing down one champion extremely quickly in a small amount of time. In terms of spike damage, the ones that Jet listed are pretty high up, as is Anivia.[/quote]

[quote=eXecute]Irelia, I can see her doing a lot of damage, but doesn't she need to get close? Veigar seems so squishy tho... But I agree, lately I seen Veigar players giving me 983 damage with their primordial burst or whatever it's called. Akali, I don't believe so. Akali is in the same category as Katarina (assassin). I have done just as well with both. Katarina is better late game in team fights, and Akali is better 1v1 and mopping up squishies. But they are both easily killed and they do decent burst damage, but nothing greater than say Ryze or Lux. As Jebus says, Akali is a good spike but sucks in team matches except to pick off squishies. Katarina is more nuke (area) damage. Annie, yeah dat dere stun is so annoying. And she hits pretty hard too. I think overpowered is more accurate description of say: - Malzahar - Fiddlesticks - Vladimir - Karthus - Anivia - Poppy - Sion - Lux These guys seem to dish out a lot of damage, and have stun-snare-like attack mechanisms guaranteeing kills or ultimates that are ridiculously overpowered. Don't you think?[/quote]
