First off I would like to say this post and all future posts are entirely my opinion and if you disagree with it, that's cool, leave a comment saying why you disagree, if you are gonna be an *** about it then there's no point in you reading any further. This is my opinion on where the champions stand at the moment.

Tier 1 = These champions are a fantastic pick for their position, they will usually dominate their lane unless they have been counter picked, and are a great addition to any team

Tier 2 = These are still good picks, they are very strong and can do well if your team works well together, however they can be hard countered, or it is possible to lose your lane if your team doesn't work well. If you are great at playing a champion from this tier, it is a good as a tier 1 pick.

Tier 3 = These picks are ok, but the other tiers generally have better picks and you could do a lot better with them unless you happen to be very good with a specific champion.

Tier 4 = I wouldn't recommend Picking these champions because there are much better choices, the only time I would recommend picking a champion from this tier is if you happen to be a great player of that champion, because if you can play one of these champions well, it is better than a tier 1 pick if you can't play them well.

I was going to put her in tier 3 but I had a feeling people would rage at me because like I said with Anivia, there are few good players out there who have the patience to play the champion for long But thanks, if you do I will make sure to take a look at it :)

To be specific, some of the things I noticed are:

well that is some list xD well I will give you some answers now and some later when I have more time.

First off an easy reply. Yes I totally agree with your opinion on Karthus, but before on my Tumblr I have made a post about karthus being a pain in the *** to lane against because It is really difficult to get a kill on him without him killing you and got like 20 people telling me so many faults with him, these faults stuck in my head and that's what made that placement. Now I think about it, the pros really outweigh the cons as that ult lategame can take out half of an AD Carry's health and that wall is great for crippling the melee champs in the enemy team, as well as the defence debuffs in a teamfight.

Next I will do Nasus. Nasus may be very weak early game, but that's usually his time to farm his Q and generally farm. If anyone tries to gank, that slow from wither is just insane, and it lasts for almost long enough to use it again. His passive plus a Vamp scepter should make him unshiftable from lane and once his Q is farmed, it will start do do insane damage and only increase from there. He is also incredibly tanky as well, which means he can tank in a team fight and deal massive single target damage, lower the AD Carry's attack speed greatly and his ult will give him nice AOE damage and bonus health.

I already covered Vladimir and Anivia in a previous post but I am most likely going to move them next friday. Nocturne is a great jungler and all, but as long as your team has decent warding, he won't get a good chance to gank, his only other option is his ultimate which is a relatively high cooldown. He is a fast jungler but his ganks are mediocre.

Morgana can be good if you cannot dodge skillshots, but honestly that dark binding is so easy to dodge, just stay behind minions and if it looks like she is coming in for an attack then back away. Her ult is extremely useful in a teamfight but the chance of that stun landing on more than 2 people is unlikely because the second someone breaks the tether, they are free. As long as you can do this and keep out of her then you should be fine, her shield is pretty strong and the cc immunity is pretty strong.

I have taken all your comments into consideration and it will show when I update it, since this was the first time, there were bound to be a lot of wrong placements but they will slowly fix themselves, thank you again for taking the time to read it and comment

and as for Luther3000, what don't you agree with? :)

To be specific, some of the things I noticed are:

-Annie, she is relatively average to weak at the moment because her short range and lack of mobility really gimps her laning. She loses to a lot of popular picks and is vulnerable to ganks when her stun is down.

-Fiddlesticks, he's honestly pretty terrible right now. His jungle is slow and blue dependant, his ganks aren't that great, he doesn't do that much damage.

-Nasus, just so weak early game.

-Karthus is still incredibly strong, his sustained DPS is among the highest in the game and his ultimate and wall are amazing.

-Nocturne is in my opinion the best jungler in the game right now. He clears fast, has great ganks and deals good damage.

-Kennen is very strong because of his massive AoE damage and CC, he works well with double AP and AoE team comps. He's also strong in lane.

-Morgana is very strong for similar reasons to Kennen, her AoE stun is ridiculous and binds win games. It's very hard to lose lane on her too.

-Anivia is also very strong because her wall wins games and her burst is pretty high too. She's hard to play and has major mana issues so I can see why you'd put her low, but when played to her potential she is incredibly powerful.

-Vlad is borderline broken. Seriously. He doesn't lose outright in that many lanes, especially when played top. Early on he's fairly weak but once he hits level 9 and gets spellvamp there's absolutely no stopping him. Vlad's lategame is absolutely incredible, he gets enormous AoE DPS, high health at no cost, and his pool makes him immune to damage for several seconds. Combine pool with Zhonya's and Will and it's incredibly hard to kill him. His ultimate also increases the damage of your whole team, making him great with AoE comps, for example with a Kennen or Karthus mid. If his team has double Will he's completely unstoppable unless you crush him hard early.

Just a nice work . I agree .

Another quick note, this isn't in exact order, for example, I'm not saying that Annie > Voli I am saying that annie is just as good a picks Voli :)

To answer you all one at a time.

Thanks, those were the champions which I couldn't decide which teir to use and they got messed up with either 2 or none of them xD But thanks for pointing that out.

Teemo is Tier 1 because he has a blind which can last up to 3.5 seconds which makes the AD carry unable to deal damage except for spells, which means if they get into a prolonged conflict he has a much higher chance of winning with the exception of graves or lee sin or something.

To answer you both, Vlad and Xerath are bottom, because every game I'm up against them they get roflstomped at mid and don't do too well late game either. Even if I play them, they are fun to play, and I have won some games with them both, but overall, Xerath doesn't have much burst, so most of the time he will have to use his ult to get a kill with all his other spells and land it 3 times consecutively, or get a lucky snipe on a stupid player. Vladimir on the other hand, is very tanky and has a lot of sustain, but generally he is a kind of poke champion who is good in their lane but when it comes to team fights, can't nuke people down like other mid champions.

I have fought a good Anivia, the thing is, thats what I'm saying, good Anivia's can destroy bad Annies but you don't get many good anivias. Most of the time if I lane against her, I will win because her stun is pretty simple to dodge as long as you keep at range and her frostbite only does significant damage you can have them chilled. her ult is good for pushing minion waves buou would have to be stupid to stand in it for it to do decent damage.

Thank you for all your comments, I really do appreciate them, and like I said, I will take a good look at those champions and consider moving them, I am gonna try make my list a friday thing, so I am still up for suggestions :) and as for Luther3000, what don't you agree with? :)
