where does hwei go
if you're gonna start off every video with a literal minute long ad at least make an attempt to do literally anything interesting
Yasuo should be one of the easiest champions. Simple kit, easy to farm with, not too complicated combos, a w that legit blocks like 70% of most mage's damage, high mobility and amazing in teamfights cuz his r shreds armor. I mean he can be punishing but his kit is very much one of the easiest to understand.
aphelios is one of the easiest champions to play. He has great sustain with severum (the pistol), push potential with infernum (flame thrower), good harass and safe farm tool calibrum (the rifle that grants him like 600 attack range), can cc with his gravitum (gravity gun), has insane dueling potential with chakram cuz if they get too close you just run them over cuz of the scaling attack speed and his sentry which is also amazing. He does not need to click any buttons aside from w, aa, and r. That's two less buttons to click, although you need to manage your ammo and learn what weapons to use for what it's really not that hard to pick up.
Honestly Malz's R is funny as hell. "Hey watch me do this smart play" "Nah" *presses R*
as an Akali main I can say it's the ability I hate the most in the entire game
it's not.
comedy gold is seeing yone stand still for 2 seconds
@@dundrasil reminds me of that ARAM game i had once. i played malzahar and the enemy akali stubbornly refused to respect my ult. punishing overextending assassins who think they can dash anywhere they want is oddly satisfying
after getting hit by it once i always buy a QSS.... and then he never ults me again and i just wasted money
Aphelios by mechanics isn't that difficult, he just looks really complicated and intimidating but when you get the weapon order and basic combinations down he becomes extremely fun to play.
Same with hwei its just more abilities than league players are used to but compared to like idk other forms of game where your character has 10's of abilities this isnt much
@@danielorlovaquinn you can say it, league players = small brains... (Which is true cause we would play dota if we had some intelligence)
He is still so extremely weak and over nerfed in solo queue right now that you must have down and utilize his kit very effectively to keep up with the AVERAGE ADC champs in the majority of matchups. You are most often playing at a disadvantage and must be competent and confident enough in the role to use Aphe's utility and your superior micro(/macro) to come up with the outplays to be useful. I agree that getting down his gun order and kit isn't as difficult as it looks intimidating to newcomers. If they're committed to practicing it enough, anyone should have it down eventually-it just takes time. So I think the video and other comments-unlike yours- are wrong to focus on the gun order as the difficult part. It's how to utilize him competently in spite of his current weak position that becomes the demanding part. Sorry for getting so tangential under your comment.
@@ra-tz9hg that's true but he is still extremely fun
@@callmeshifu4114 I can definitely agree
as an aphelios main, i really wouldn't call him the hardest champion. most of the difficulty comes from just knowledge of what he does, it just comes with learning. tbh kalista is much harder as an adc
as an aphelios main, i agree
As a riven and aphelios main... Riven not being top 1-2 And aphelios not being top 20 is fuckin wild 💀
@@alessgr9394I mean im surprised Renata wasnt anywhere up, even tho she's probably the most skill based SUPPORT due to how specific and situational at the same time she is.
@@rojczan1399 Didnt think about it but agreed, she should be there
@@rojczan1399 i think thresh is way more skill based, the grab isnt easy neither extermely hard to hit but it depends on you reading your opponent well....
you should do this video again but only ask challenger players to see the difference between them and us low elo players

Master players won't pick Yi
@@harryboynton7800the rank 1 player in europe last split was a master yi main
no he reached rank 1 but wasnt overal rank 1@@lolxdlolmfaololxdd8879
@@lolxdlolmfaololxdd8879 Rank 1 OTP doesn't matter if the champion is hard to play or not. On a side note, I was very surprised to see Yi ranked as an easy champion. Sure, it's easy to pick up but being so incredibly hard countered by CC requires a huge understanding of the game to pull Yi off to a high level.
I still believe that people that call Aphelios the hardest champion didn't even try him out. Aphelios is easy - the hardest part is spacing which is just... an adc thing, not Phel exclusive. He is surprisingly easy to understand and learn.
yep
Phel isn't that mechanical of a champion, which is reflected by his surprisingly low skill floor, but playing him well requires you to actively think about weapon and ammo management as well as using every weapon to the maximum (like hitting every green mark or knowing how to use white turret and stacks), which translates to a high skill ceiling.
yep, mechanically he's not different from other adcs, i'd say draven is harder mechanical wise, the hard thing with phel is how much micromanagement u need to do in order to play him well, like do i get rid of this weapon? or should i save it? do i have enough ammo to actually do a full damage chakram or no? and thinking down to his passive like, do i max out the attack speed or ad first? all while playing an adc one of the hardest role in the game
True. Good adc with time to read=good aphelios.
@@callmeshifu4114 if we are talking about adc skill ceilings, Ezreal's is much higher than Aphelios. I do believe he is only on this list because of the 200 years meme.
As a long suffering Azir main I must say you kinda missed the ball on why he's difficult. It's not his combos that make him difficult, they can all be learned with enough practice and eventually the ol' Shurima Shuffle will come naturally. It's the fact that you have to micro up to 4 different soldiers and yourself, whilst simultaneously dealing with both the hardest parts of being a marksman (kiting and positioning) and the hardest parts of being a mage (ability usage and cooldown management).
yeah but thats with almost all champs , i otp qiyana , played azir once did a perfect shuriman shuffle , its not hard at all wat makes azir hard for me is to divide my attention between sand soldiers and myself and ofc his abysmally shit numbers
@@gamingyoshi2280 my guy that's exactly what I'm saying
tbh azir is so easy to me, he shouldnt even be in the top 15 hardests. and aphelios shouldnt be there aswell there are other comments to explain why. im surprised elise isnt in there
whats ur rank buddy@@krow3416
@@krow3416that’s cuz as of rn he is kinda busted especially in low elo. He’s going to get nerfed 100% along with volibear
Yasuo is like BMW in eastern europe: A good car (champ) but most expected to cause an accident (int)
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Honestly as a person who actually plays Aphelios he's not hard mechanically but is hard in terms of macro and understanding as being able to shuffle your guns properly and having the right guns for the exact situations can be difficult sometimes but overall mechanically he's not that hard he's in Varus level of difficulty in mechanics to pull off his combos but around Azir level of macro difficulty to properly pull off
Yeah theres a Difference in a mechanically super difficult Champion and a champ thats difficult to understand. There are many Champs you nee d10+ games on the notvsuck , and many you only need one game to learn it but need General good mechanics (for example vayne)
If you’re someone who mains the champion the fact that you took a paragraph to try and explain why he isn’t hard lol. ADC is harder to play than most roles because of how punishing a single mistake is. Adding constant complexity and adaptability makes it harder. What’s your goal lmao
@@gvccihvccipretty much. Adc is tough aphel is adc on masochist mode.
It's wild how karatina went from one of the easiest champions to one of the hardest (according to the list) of the game after her rework. I still miss old kata.
i didnt even know she had a rework wtf
Yeah OG knows
same, though even old kata had players that screwed up, regularly; it was like master yi - there's good master yi's and then there's master yi's that feed the other team incessantly (turning the game into a 4v6) - old kata was similar in how certain people played her 🤣 I do miss old kata though, she was fun to relax + play on.
@@darthpaul4818same lol
before rework she was master 2.0 and now she is still easy but feels fair to play against
Aphelios really isn't too difficult in my opinion. I think his different looking kit is what throws people off.
people who voted are below silver
He is hard you dont only know bis combos you also have to know gun rotation which gun combos are better lane which is better 1v1 who is better at team fights and will you have the guns at the right time?
not that hard if u put fair amount of time into it
@@MostafaMahmoud02 that's how we know u are silver kid, all that shit you said it's easily learnt in first couple games of playing aphelios, nothing too hard
@@st1lysh35 late replay but Sorry to break it for you iam emerald in in diamond 1/2 loobies you probably won't hit it in your life time but i respect your opinion
It quite insane that Leona is not on the top 15 easiest champions to play. her kit is just so simple. Q: Stun that dude. W: Tank mode E: approaching menacingly R: PRAISE THE SUN MOTHERFUCKER!
shes got 2 skill shots and no mobility at all. honestly naut is easier than her. a.a. stun, target ult, wider and longer grab plus mobility if you use walls
She's not a hard champ but she's definitely not the easiest engage tank out there either. E is a relatively short range skillshot that is possible to miss and dodge (and just straight up not be in range for against like a Cait/Lux lane), R is a skillshot that is extremely easy to flash or dodge bc of the animation beforehand. Q and w are very easy for sure. She has no mobility to get our of a fight, once she's in, she is in and will die if it's a bad fight. Unlike many other cc heavy tanks that have some way to get out. Naut can hook to terrain, Rasmus can speed away, etc.
In some places the list feels accurate but in some places not and i think thats based on the voters ranks. As mentioned some champs skill floors and caps won't show until certain ranks. Ive never been higher than silver and some plays would absolutely not fly in a plat game, making some champs switch to the other side of the list. Typically high ranked players also have more knowledge about the game itself making "easy" champs for them possibly very difficult for lower ranks.
Simply Akali and Lee Sin feels so odd to be in hardest champs,when i would place them closely to easy. Reason is, they have low entry lvl, but high skill cealing. So yeah,i agree with ya
@@psychokuca302 truth. I haven't played either in a long time (I also hate melee / in your face champs) but when I have tried it wasn't too bad. There's definitely a learning curve to timing, but they also seem to fair well against really any opponent. So many akalis just run down lane and it's game over lmao
Yeap. and to add to that, for 1.5years now i had 2 mastery 8 toklens on akali,but never tried to even get last one. picked her on top and just casually ended gime like 10/2/something. Was one of the easiet games i played @@defectiveaffect
A good exampld of that is fckn jHIN Xd
@@psychokuca302 agreed that difficulty is highly relative. sure, those complex champs can be hard to pick up, but they get tools for any situation. i like to compare this to CoD zombies. sure, those huge, complex maps are daunting at first glance, and you will die horribly early on when you start out. however, they are also the easiest maps to reach the higher rounds once you master them. the simpler maps you can easily grasp in your first game? reaching the same high rounds becomes nigh impossible and absolutely requires you to master the fundamentals instead of relying on the fancy tools the complex maps give you. each got their own challenge, and i think the same rules apply with league. at higher ELOs the simpler champs suddenly become so much harder to win with
There is a big difference between what "hardest" means - hardest to play or hardest to master. I personally don't consider Gankplank hard to play (he is sure hard to master and play perfectly) - use your Q (which totally isn't ranged autoattack on 4 second cooldown), combo barrels and miss them, do 300 true dmg autoattack, heal and remove any cc with orange, get Bluetooth assists from rest of the map using ult.
So true. After 10 games of gp i could do some plays and deal good chucks of dmg, and even carry games, but on, for example, kat, after 10 games i only sucked more XD
Nah,his lanephase is weird.If you miss your barrels in lanephase you need to keep distance because barrels have 18s CD each and your enemy will jump on you if they smell weakness,if you spam Q before your ER your mana will drain FAST.
@@wolhaiksong2558 Yes, that is true, but his lategame is so strong,that even when you are behind you still dish out good amounts of dmg, but you are not carry,but sub-carry, with still good disangage and good engage
@@psychokuca302this only means ur bad with kat, she is wayyyy easier than gp
I couldn't agree more, finally seeing somebody else who has my exact point
Thanks for the easiest and hardest champions chosen by silvers!
yeah no shit it's gonna be chosen by silvers, that's where most people are
@@akaranzo And that is exactly why it shouldn't be chosen by them. They're the majority. It should be chosen by the highest ranks of people.
@@floddy133 yeah like at least master
like were tf is ezrael
I love that fact that a lot of the hard to play champs according to this list like Pyke, Kindred or Aphelios aren't mechanically hard but it's acknowledged that it is hard to master the macro that is required for those champs
kindred is the only champ of these with hard macro, pyke is a feast or famine champ but also hypermobile so macro is less important then, and aphe requires exactly the same macro as every other adc,
I remember when I started playing league like late 2021 - early 2022, my friends saw that I liked playing or trying difficult champions, specifically ADCs. So literally, before I even knew how to CS properly, they told me to try out Aphelios. I'm so happy to say that he was my first every M7 champion and I love playing him.
I'm glad that league is always growing, I started to play in 2011.
Kinda surprised how few Supports appeared on both lists.
I feel like Bard potentially could have been on the hardest to play list. Also, I was sort of surprised not to see Gnar on that list as well given that you don't have full control over when he goes mega.
@@CiviGG Bard is one of the easiest supports wdym
bard hard?@@CiviGG
@@ozgur2622 Bard is not easy. I mained Kindred jung for a while and did decent I played Bard and sucked so badly I almost wanted to quit. I learned his kit and now he's my main. When I adc even if someone is playing bard I win every game why? simply because Bard is not easy.
Indeed, Bard is hard. You have to position yourself well to stun enemies with Q, place his W in a good place and explain what it does, use portals reasonably, so no one will die of teleporting straight into the enemy and his ultimate requires 200 IQ to make a plan on the fly about what you want to do with it AND you have to execute it well, otherwise you can make your team lose a fight and it's entirely Bard's fault.
Suprised that kindred wasn't on this list, the invading is pretty complicated for the average league players and how to predict the marks, to be fair they are definitely harder than some on this list. Edit: she was in the top 20 hardest but i think she should be lower.
Fr juggling getting marks from invades, objectives and ganking is so hard
@@wailmerpail no it's not
Singed should be easily in top 5 of the hardest champs
Now thats just weird jungle mechanics that aren’t necessary but only the higher league ranks do.. this is about their champ difficulty by abilities not the role they play
definitely kindred should be way above something like lee , zed , riven
I'd argue that Kalista is harder than Aphelios. Sure he's hard because you need to time what guns you have for objectives and team fights, but after a bit you get used to it and can play him somewhat intuitively since he's just another adc at the end of the day regardless of how many tools he has. Kalista on the other hand has specific movement selections that no other champion has. Her passive alone is strong, but if you devote yourself and the hours and games to learning her tech, her passive truly unlocks and she becomes the actual hardest champion in the game. She has specific options you need to toggle on to get the most out of her because just attack move clicking will hold you back from her full power and limit your movement. Her skill floor FEELS pretty low, you pick her up, spend a few games getting used to her movement and have some success and think "oh this champion is easy" but then you look into mastering her and dig through videos to find actual guides for her and you realize she's actually completely insane. The learning curve of going from new to mediocre is already insane and putting what you've practiced in the tool into real games and getting consistent with it is extremely difficult but so damn rewarding. Here's a video of her movement and other technical skills by a player SIGNIFICANTLY better than me and really hammers home just how insane the champion can be if played at a competent level kzhead.info/sun/oJqniNSrrmJop6s/bejne.htmlsi=bhUl0mKRP8KPypW3 I think it's crazy that some people still think the Shuriman Shuffle is a hard tech when it's literally just timing a single button to get the most distance out of, but this Shadow Isles Slide requires precise timing for EVERY auto attack, changes timing when you buy attack speed items and level up, any changes in ping can throw off the timing, needs auto attack toggled on to perform consistently which means if you mistime it you start just WALKING and do no damage at all and lose your mobility until you input another attack command and get back into the rhythm of the slide AND this is all on a champion who has 2 buttons when alone and sometimes still 2 buttons when not alone. She is easily in the top 3 of hardest champions to master in the game just in terms of mechanics alone. The sheer difference of gameplay from when I had 20 games on Kalista and didn't know any of this tech to where I'm at after practicing it and getting mediocre, not even good, just mediocre, is like the difference between night and day.
I have tried 12 of 15 hard champ 10 games or more and I think qiyana is underrated. I just don't try aphelios, Zoe, GP but for qiyana during 10 games even in normal I get 0 impact. It's impossible. even with lee sin and azir I have found a way to not be useless and I have given up. It's so hard for me to kill with more than other assassins. Even NIDA was less difficult for me when I tried. Respect for qiyana players really!!!
For the easiest I agree with everything. Garen yuumi hi malph Annie. I hate just seeing these noob champs after not.
you can tell a lot of people dont really play the champs they vote for they just go of what other people say or do. like i like assassins so i have played a lot of qiyana and zed, and putting zed as harder than qiyana is just not it lol. i think this might be because zed is a very common champion you see picked a lot across high and low elo, but qiyana is only really has presence in high elo. so low elo players arnt really "aware" of her if that makes sense.
yeh i wass very suprised to see zed being put that high, he is so much easier than qiyana and even kata tbh
Id love to see a video like this on the funniest champions. Voice lines, play style, everything
A video ranking champion voices would be awesome

This list is a bit contreversial because there is a big difference between skill floor and skill ceiling. For example: Xayah might be difficult to understand at first, but when you get down her basics she isnt that difficult to master. Viego on the other hand is quite easy to understand but theoratically is the hardest to master since you need to master all of your enemies' champs. I'd think making a hardest to pick up and a hardest to master list apart from each other would be better.
You can't say that viego technially the hardest champ because you just spam skills and use R again you don't have to be good at the champions you turned you just have to be decent with them and being decent on a champ is easy if you know its skills. If u turn into azir with viego u don't space and aa with every soldier you just spam 3-4 abilities and use R again
@@k0rizo hes talking about SKILL CEILING so ye u can spam moves and be decent but its about how hard it is to MASTER the champion which means u would have to use theese moves almost perfectly
@@k0rizo Ah yes, good job on completely both missing the point but also PROVING his point He literally said "Viego on the other hand is _quite easy to understand_ but _theoretically the hardest to _*_master"_* you just literally proved his point with your statement, yeah you can do well with just spamming abilities, but MASTERING it requires a lot more
Aphelios is not that hard to pull off, he has a lot of abilities to understand but putting it to practice is not that challenging
He is an imobile adc, he heavily relies on his support, he has a hard kit to learn even if you know the combos because sometimes you have to quickly decide which ult you need to use, all while having only one gun that grants him actually good range, while the rest of them give him lower range than Varus , on top he has basicly one gun that is a good wave clear tool. He is definetly that hard to pull off.
@@johannhahn248 Ofc but not top 1 hard
couldnt agree more.
@@johannhahn248 nice u describe like 80% of adc champ. People think gun combo is like fictional chemistry but in practice everyone just spam their Q and E to get the good gun rotation out. It not hard to think about: "i don't have good gun, let not fight and farm"
As an Aphelios main i agree, the whole list was picked by Silver players...
For better results, you probably should also show Easiest/Hardest votes, so popular champs dont even up on both ends on the list and then go list from highstest easy/hardest through
aphelios main here! ive gotta say that he’s actually one of The most op and fun champs ive EVER played! maybe he seems a little bit hard, but after a few games, you should be able to understand him🌟
pls next time ask them to submit their rank aswel cuz i'm starting to get tilted by all this
I recently picked up aphelios a couple days ago and tbh the only hard part is probably his weapon combos and rotations and optimally using his skills with low amo for crazy boom boom pow combos
Man the people voting on these polls must all either be new players or have some mental disability. Some of these spots are crazy
Akali, Irelia, Katarina, Lee sin don't deserve their spot for sure. They are often seen as hard because you see flashy high mastery of them showing off what actually skilled player can accomplish with them. However they are easy to pick up, you are not punished for not knowing how to play them well like you are with Riven or Azir. I find it absurd riot is so akin to forcing "skilled" champs to not requiring practice to perform on them. Skilled champs should require practice to learn. They should be strong for those who put in the practice. Capable of unique and flashy moments. Yet not accesible to everyone. That's where you will be rewarded and satisfied of your investement in them, that's where you can be recognized as a good x player, that's where the balancing can be made for those who practice them just like Riven.
factual
this feels like silver elo list
I picked up Aphelios a few years ago when he was on free rotation, and honestly I did not find him that difficult. He was still absurdly broken around then so idk if I could perform on him now.
i agree it took me so many games to get good on irelia its not even funny how many ults i missed starting out and still do to this day from time to time
I do think there needs to be a bit of clarification on whether they're evaluated on skill floor or skill ceiling. For example, Lee Sin has a fairly low skill floor compared to Yasuo and Riven, and so doesn't deserve to be that high on the list in that case, but his skill ceiling is much higher than Azir or Aphelios. (check out the best Aphel/Azir players, then look at the top Lee players) If the criteria was specified in the poll to be skill floor, I think the poll results would generally be similar, but there would be some differences--Aphelios, Lee Sin, and Zed would probably be much lower on the list since their skill floors aren't as insane as Riven/GP, for example
lee sin has a high skill floor and high skill ceiling. Its not true to say that somene starting out with lee sin will get the hang of him so easily.
There is NO WAY 83 people thought BRIAR is hard
i was honestly expecting her in the top 3 easiest
Aphelios is really easy. His passive is a paragraph, and his q is 5 different abilities, but you have to remember that his passive pretty much is his whole kit. He is the hardest to first time because to play him you need to understand gun rotation and gun combos, but a few games makes it pretty easy. He's mechanically very simple. He has no fancy combos (for the most part). It looks really complex due to the gun combos, and to someone who doesn't play him, it may seem impossible to understand, but it's not that hard. It would be interesting to see a new poll done where you ask the mains of that champion how hard they think he is, and compare that to what the rest of the community views that champion's difficulty as.
The fact that Yasuo is behind irelia shows how insane this list is.
akali and kata on list is funny
Its not like its a list made by chall players yk
more like bronzes@@buttsecks7466
Watching that mundo kill vayne is amazing
Riven is the hardest by far not even the 200 years champ is close, im not even going to explain why, just search guides on youtube and if u still think that is not the hardest probably you are below plat and dont know shit about micro and macro, just play her in +gold and try to even win the lane
True
how is macro relevant to mastering riven? but yea riven should be top 3
15:18 Hell yes! I'll take it! Agreed not too difficult but the skill ceiling can be astronomical with the outplay and escape within teamfight potential.
On some things i agree but on some i do not. Zed is one of the most if not the most beginner-friendly assassin-like champion considering how forgiving his kit can be. You miss a combo, then simply dont E in. Ult even gives you one more possible escape AND damage source. I struggle way more with talon than with zed.
Akali isn't hard lol. I agree she is hard to really master and be like Professor Akali, but any regular player can pick her up and after a few games start doing decently with her. She has so much margin of error is insane (Wall jump, shroud and R which is pretty much a double flash). Akali mains will tell you she is really hard to justify why they have 1M mastery points and still be hardstuck gold
I think most people find akali hard because they're not managing their energy well. Akali's playstyle is switching around skills and enhanced AAs and some people probably just presses Q and wonders why their energy is empty and cant do anything
@@raynorshineeeshe's hard not just for that reason but also because she's an all in character. You have to know when to engage use shroud and auto at the right time and give the other players time to return the damage. There's no way you could play safe with her if you suck playing her. It's either just don't play her or you'll end up feeding the enemy tram with her.
Ye some of those struggle during teamfights
managin energy? akali lost that mechanic when they made her w a energy bank@@raynorshineee
Complaining about akali on the list when zed is number 8, ahead of Qiyana, and Nidalee
Old aurelion sol could also qualify! Ball dragon still exists in wild rift and his role is incredibly unique. I find tgat he actually has some of the best laning in tge game since he's excellent at keeping people away (those stars HURT)
Still mad they reworked him. Just because people don't understand or play him doesn't mean he isn't enjoyed by many people.
Old Asol was definetely one of the hardest champs both mechanically and macro-wise. But new Asol is just pure noob champ that requires nothing more than 2 hands and 50 IQ
Outside Joke, your commentary was perfect. Almost everything you said was what I was thinking.
i play aphelios often, it took me a while to get used to him. you need to know the gun order first. after you know the gun order it gets easier
I might be biased but I'd say Yi is far from being the third easiest champion by now. Sure, on a basis you can just walk up, press E and R for more damage and hold down rightclick to do damage with the occasional Q thrown in but that kind of gameplay will only hold up against players ranked somewhere in Iron 52. Realistically you need to be wary of CC into burst combos and need to know what champion you need to focus at what point of a fight and when to maybe disengage for a bit while deciding if you can use your W as an auto reset to get some additional burst damage or if you need to hold it to be able to survive a burst.
Agree like I was surprised no one mentioned pantheon I mean he has the easiest hard cc in the game plus the busted e
I'm mastery 7 Kalista and I've never really felt she is hard to play. She is different for sure but she teaches players to click between every auto and she has so much outplay potential. She basically has built in smite but with damage that scales to champs. As long as you aren't playing against an ashe, I feel like she is relatively easy. Even makes CSing easier
She's hard if youre not used to kiting. For me it was the ult that was hard at first. Back then i hadnt played other champs than adcs so i had a hard time figuring out when to ult. Beyond that shes constantly nerfed pretty hard and has a smaller range so you need good positioning and ig managing her e but if youve played xayah and twitch its easy enough
u cannot benefit from kiting after 20 mins into the game, making kalista one of the hardest adcs if not the hardest
surprised to not see Taliyah in the top 15
My only two M7 champs are Akali and Garen 😂. Akali was my OTP for a while and I got really good with her. Garen became my secondary pick in mid lane but mostly top lane.
Lee and azir are 2 hardest champs is what i've always said
The video we have been all been waiting for 🙏🏼
This is where you can see that "difficulty" is a very subjective concept, as there was champions like Xerath where i thought would be on the easy list, and other champions that to me are not really hard like Irelia yet they get a lot of votes. interesting video.
Me and a friend main Yuumi and Garen respectfully. I'll bully him forever using this vote saying Garen is easier
The difference is that with Garen you also have to farm and can't watch Netflix while playing Garen But I get you,go make him as mad as possible 😅
This list feels like it was made from Bronze players
Ur not tough
This list feels like it was made by people who don’t even play the game who based their opinion on the vocal minority amongst bronze players
These video seems to ask for highest and lowest skill floors. It’d be really cool to see a video of highest and lowest skill ceilings!
somehow I got more trouble learning garen than lee sin and riven (skill floor wise). garen just lacks that mobility/range for me (I play mostly camille, akali, jayce) and it's really tough to learn how to play slow champs again.
My skill level is between "i can play zed" and "if you see me playing gp its not me i sold my account"
Putting Nidalee at number 10 immediately tells me that most of the voters never played her
Yeah I play Nid for the first time and drop 20 kills without breaking a sweat she is fun and not difficult to learn
@@mattthechickthon6445She is easy if you are bronze/silver. Those players don't even try to dodge the Q. gl playing her in higher elo.
@@grizzlyz367 exactly, any champ is easy in low elo
@@mattthechickthon6445 try playing her in anything higher than Plat 4 brother cause Nidalee vs good players is different from Nidalee vs bad players
@@Nidalee_Enjoyer I had to look that guy up because I saw him everywhere in the comments saying hard champs are easy. Looks like he is silver 3 peak with negative winrate. I can see why he thinks some champs are easy...
As an Aphelios main: he's hard to learn, but easy to master. You can get his guns down in less than 20 games and once the novelty wears off and you work out your optimal weapon rotation (red > white > green > purple/blue > blue/purple down to preference) you've already reached 80% of the champ's potential really.
Small misconception on gangplank's damage (as a gangplank main), his barrels does only 175 damage flat, his q is what gives the barrels damage, if the q does 1k, and gp q's a barrel, it becomes 1175 damage, what makes his barrels do more tho is that barrels ignores 30% armor
ngl if we're going to put ashe on the "easiest" champions side at all simply because her kit is easy to execute, i think riven should be a lot higher than 5. if youre comparing kits, riven is by far the hardest to execute in full, MAYBE aphelios comes close. if we take into account play style, then ashe should be much much higher, id say even higher than many of the ones in the top 15 most difficult on this list.
aphelios is one of the most fun to play champs in the game
As a shaco enjoyer I think #133 is totally not the case. I mean he has a simple kit but I feel like he is a coinflip if you can't punish and you will end up useless sooner or later, something like Nidalee.
should‘ve talked about lee sin passive abit since it‘s so hard to keep your energy high at all times, also zed is easy what are you guys on
I main ADC, and Aphelios wasn't too hard to pick up. Of course playing any champion at a high level is difficult but I feel Aphelios was an easier champion to learn especially because of how straightforward and how 'no bs' his tooltips explaining the abilities were. Aphelios was a champion that looked complicated at first glance, and especially will give you a headache when trying to digest his kit for the first time mid-game. I believe the hardest champions are the ones that rely on each part of their kit's combo hitting in order to deal a suitable amount of damage in response to how much hp and mana (or energy) spent.
Kalista definitely deserves to be up there, using her passive effectively after having a few attack speed items is insanely difficult
Definitely think aphelion should be much lower than the likes of riven azir lee sin etc. Once you know the rotation of gun pairs and learn which fights to take or when to have which gun pair available he feels pretty straight forward imo. Nowhere near the pain in the ass of learning riven combos etc
14:32 -- my first pentakill was on Katarina [by accident] hwne i first started palying the game in 2014. her spot is definitely deserved lol
My question is, are they just mechanically the hardest or are they hard to play well? I'd say leona (as an example) is easy mechanically to learn but playing her well is another story. Being good at Leona requires you to know timing, basic spacing to stay healthy, ally awareness and good positioning to keep yourself ready to engage. More than other champions who are much safer but more complex mechanically id say she is harder to be good at since if you fuck up just a little you can absolutely ruin your entire lane for your team.
I'm an Azir and Kog'Maw two-trick. I play the former when I'm looking for mental stimulation and the latter when I want to relax. I think one of the problems new players have when picking up Azir is that they treat him like a mage or an engager first and foremost, when in actuality he's best played as a backline DPS carry. The one thing which really elevated my Azir gameplay was cutting back on trying to pull off big flashy WEQR engage plays all the time and instead prioritizing R for peel (usually for self-peel, but often to peel for allies too; teamfights are a group effort) Sure, there's a time and place for the shurima shuffle, but you need to remember that Azir's strengths really lie in his teamfight DPS, so you should seriously value your own safety. A couple seconds of uninterrupted front-to-back W usage will completely turn the tide, even against tanks, so don't just force a flashy but stupid play whenever you see clumped enemies, particularly if your team isn't in a position to follow up or you're the only reliable source of damage on the team. (One of the nice things about Azir is that he can fulfill the purpose of an ADC in melting the enemy frontline, should your botlane prove themselves to be useless)
Outside Joke, You're amazing! I hit the like button as soon as I saw it!
Hello Mr OJ! I was watching your videos since you were just starting out with youtube and was in the discord (almost) since it was releassed. Was wondering if there were any updates about that discord server. It has been down for quite a while and I enjoyed being in it a lot. Also wwas wondering about streams :3
Should've made this video after Hwei releases because there will easily be a new no. 1.
no he would not
he is easy and broken his combos are easy and the damage is crazy
Not really, I have played him a lot on PBE and he's a lot more intuitive than he looks like. He has 9 basic abilities, but most of them are very situational (QW, WQ, WW, EW), so it's about spamming WE, using EE or EQ for cc and QQ or QE to deal the damage
One champion that was Really hard to master was old Aurelion Sol, that thing was a roaming monster and a spacing machine that in the right hands can take over a whole game Now well, he just got turned into a generic late game mage ):
You should do a ranking video of the best champions to hang out with irl.
i dont know if youve done it but you should definitely do the most fun champs chosen by us
I love seeing a new outside joke video
the hardest champ should def be ezreal not aphelios, aphelios is just scary to understand because it's weird but once u understood the abilities he have it's not hard to play him
Imo there is a huge difference between an average and a really good trynda (fogged), ww (hornlime) and yi (sinerias) player on a mechanical lvl. Also garen has a few tricks aswell, like timing the w, aa reset or removing slows with q and the aa reset on r. Ofc I understand why they are on the list, but i think there are a lot of champs with the same difficulty as these while having a better reputation of being harder.
would be pretty interessting to see which rank voted for what
Ezreal is by far the hardest champ in league, the only champ in league that can miss all his damage constantly compare to the role its played, 90% of adc are just kite and basics, maybe Zeri can be count in missing damage, but the cooldowns are way differents, I know there are more champs that can miss damage constantly, like Xerath, Vel Koz, etc, but they are just different to Ezreal
Ez is ezpz
As a GP main place 4 is definetly deserved. I spent so many hours just to get every common barrel combo consistently. BTW: If you are starting out on gp try learning the 3 barrel combo first, best way to get early cheese damage in lane. Another question, how many of you would enjoy a very comprehensive (30min+) GP tutorial for this or the next season? Like discussing most matchups and the item build and every combo
saying gp is hard is like saying riven is the hardest champ to play
Good for you that you think GP is easy to play. Most people are not that fortunate@@adamcherkaoui1388
@@adamcherkaoui1388 Actually curious who is in ur opinion the hardest one.
@@hidesidehs5271 it depends really , you mean mechanically?
@@adamcherkaoui1388 No, in general. You can list the reason.
Master Yi is actually very dificult, his skills may not be hard but his playstyle is one of the hardests in the game because if you make one single mistake you die instantly. while other champions like Dr.Mundo can just make 90 mistakes miss every single "q" and still kill you
i disagree when you say "his skills are not hard", i think the champion is based around his Q and W its extremely hard to use W and Q in a teamfight you are not allowed to miss those spells, (w to reset aa and time it as well with the burst also choosing to q or w depending on what spell you see and also timing the Q )
plus you have to be clicking really well with this champion, similar to an ADC
''Master Yi is actually very difficult'' let me stop you right there , im not even gonna read the rest of your comment to justify how a point-click autoattack champion is hard to play.
@@floddy133 Its the same logic on how Adcs are dificult. they also are point-click auto atack champions
@@gokupt4630 with the difference being adcs can't go head on into a whole team ,smash their keyboard and spam Q
I think it would be cool if we saw which r/championmain is the best.
5 people saying Aphelios being the easiest are trolls, for some reason innately vibe with the champion and their abilities from the outset or most likely: Have 2 PhDs in physics and play LOL in their spare time
Comparing champions like this makes no sense. Someone like lee sin, riven, zed takes mechanical skills, and someone like bard or twisted fate takes game knowledge and someone like kalista and draven takes positioning.
master yi is easy to get to 80 but to fully master him he actually requires a pretty difficult playstyle as well as ood game knowledge like knowing your enemies cooldowns and when to use alpha strike to not be focused down right after when playing against competent opponents
this makes me happy :D i have a lot of games on aphelios ( 850k + mastery points )
Aphelios does not belong that high, only hard part about him is positioning.
Hardest champ is veiger for sure like the one shot combo is so difficult
fo sho
Yeah, I agree w Akali being placed way too highly. The champ looks way too flashy for what it really is. She has the 3rd highest base HP regen in the game and you start d shield almost every match up, so with second wind, d shield, and just base hp regen, she is super forgiving and 90% of the time youll just out sustain your laner unless its like vlad or gragas. On top of that, her hardest counters are all super low pick rate champs like kassadin, taliyah, jayce, and vlad, so you rarely ever get put into a horrible match up. Her q takes a while to get used to the short range and knowing when youre close enough to poke, but other than that, super simple ability. Her W is literally just free invis in an area for a short amount of time, extremely broken. Her E is a free engage/disengage, depending on how you use it. Her R isn't hard to use either, point and click dash that deals damage and R2 is a free cast dash that also deals damage, which acts like another free engage/disengage.
Just wait until you get a Garen mid and says f*** you to your W with his E
Outside joke:"one and only demacian" Me:"And I took this personally"
sona not being in the top 3 for easiest champs is crazy
Can you do the most good looking champions and the most ugly champions in the game?
Aphelios isn't really that difficult, the only difficult thing for him is wasting bullets to get the weapon you want or needed, but his combos are pretty straightforward... Flamethrower with Chakram for AOE damaging and melting enemies, Rifle or Pistol with Cannon for Easy poke, Pistol and Flamethrower for clearing minion waves, and Pistol with Chakram for duels
zeri was my first champ i bought and i literally love her so mich
Its not Qiyana, its Kinua.
Zed and Akali are not that hard tbh. You just need to be smart.
I like how saying means nothing. “League is easy guys! Just don’t lose!!!!”
thats hard for league players
Smart people don't play zed and akali, they Stat check.
Nice bait troll bronze
This comment gives me the same vibes as “just type Karthus ult”
It would be fun to see how different ranks think of this - because it's obvious that this list is heavily influenced by silver/gold players.
Things with easy champs is no ome can utilize them right, like Sona's empowered W is basically an exaust without slow, lux combo requires autos to maximize damage, malzahar deald with QSS, and freaking worst of al Rammus Vs Adc
